<\/a> OK I’m not the best person to review albums as I tend to just write the weird and sometimes totally off-point comments about album songs after I hear them for a few times, but a lot of you lot have been asking me what I think about The Wanted’s <\/strong>debut album so, I decided to do a track-by-track review. If The Wanted<\/strong> can do no wrong and you’re love for them is purely based on how many of their babies you want to have, well, you’ll probably won’t like my review very much. But I know a few thousand of you out there deeply appreciate my weird and wonderful album reviews, so here it is. <\/p>\n I have to say – as a whole, The Wanted’s <\/strong>debut album is pretty much – ok. With 13 tracks, you could easily cut three of them, but what I think the writers and producers are going for here is pretty much fluffy pop perfection and I think they achieved that with The Wanted<\/strong>. It’s obvious they haven’t really matured as musicians quite just yet, but there is lots of room for future growth and having said that – I really do like this album. There are some real gems on here in addition to their singles here like “Personal Soldier”, “Lose My Mind”<\/strong> and “Let’s Get Ugly”<\/strong> that are very good. For true fans of The Wanted <\/strong>– this album will be the shit. For real pop music fans, the album will be just ok, but the lot of you will agree that it isn’t most artistic piece of work ever created, but it’s perfectly enjoyable…<\/p>\n All Time Low<\/strong>: Like most famous boybands, they all have their signature song that they will always and forever be remembered for and I think “All Time Low”<\/strong> will be The Wanted’s <\/strong>biggest hit. Like JLS<\/strong> has “Beat Again” <\/strong>and Take That <\/strong>have “Back For Good”. <\/strong>Perhaps it’s a bit too early to say that, being that they are only on single number two, but after the hearing their debut album in it’s entirety, that’s just my prediction. I still fucking love this song and there is a reason it shot to the top of the charts.<\/p>\n Heart Vacancy<\/strong> : The Wanted’s <\/strong>current hit single is such a joy to listen to. Classic boybandery if I ever heard it and I just love love love the video. Mostly when Tom<\/strong> sings to everyone – “This aint the heartbreak hotel”… It’s no secret, Tom<\/strong> is my favorite member of The Wanted<\/strong>. If you didn’t read my thoughts on the video – you can read my review<\/a> <\/strong>of it on EQ.<\/p>\n Lose My Mind<\/strong>: Ever since the four song sampler came out, this song was the one that stuck in my mind the most, but from the early MySpace days, “Let’s Get Ugly”<\/strong> was my favorite, but it’s so hard to choose favorites really, but if I must – “Lose My Mind”<\/strong> is my fave from this album. Killer chorus and the brilliant lyric “If heartache was a physical pain, I could face it, but you’re hurting me from the inside of my head, I can’t take it – I’m gonna lose my mind.” <\/em> It’s just makes much more sense if you listen to it instead of me waffling on about it…I hope they release this one as a single. They must.<\/p>\n
