Some good tracks, but mostly disappointing - I loved Liberty X and I was very sad the day they announced their split. Thinking It Over and Being Somebody are two of my all-time favourite albums - I think I love every single track on both of those albums. All time great pop classics.This album, however, is not. I hate to say it, but this album is bland. And it s not worth the money - it has only 10 new (at the time) tracks. The last four tracks are previous singles - great songs but unneccessary. The only people buying the album would have been fans and they d already have those songs.So if we ignore those songs, we have 10 songs left to review. And out of those 10 songs I only like 4. That is extraordinarily bad considering how high a caliber their last two albums were.These four songs are:Shotgun - this is the shining star of the album. It saves the album from 1 star. It s one of my all-time favourite LX tracks. It s just so much fun, a jaunty little track about taking a road trip to Las Vegas. It s catchy, fun to sing along to and it has awesome lyrics. A diamond in the rough on this CD, a definite listen to. If they d released this as a single, it might have saved the album.Dirty Cash - this song is good, but not stellar. It s quite controversial I think, with lyrics about prostitution (no I m not kidding) but it s catchy and I like the girls vocals.X - this was the last ever LX single and it flopped. I can see why, although I do like this song. Only like though, it s not that great. The Xers sing about themselves and how their band is eXtraordinary and the such (well they used to be, this album isn t).Yo DJ - the b-side to Song For Lovers, I was dismayed to see it was on the album, actually. That means only 9 new tracks, really. But this is catchy and cool.As for the rest of the songs - Song For Lovers is a load of drivel, I hate Reverend Run s rapping and the LXers hardly sing anything at all, In My Bed is ok but nothing special, Then There Was You and Divine Intervention are very soppy ballads that aren t up to the usual LX standard (see The Poet and Impossible from Being Somebody for amazing ballads from the X) and It s Ok and Move Ya Body are repetitive upbeat songs.I do really hate to give a LX album only 2 stars, but this was a bad way for the X to go out. Shotgun is really the only gem on this bland album.This album is not a true representation of what Liberty X were really like. The first two albums are a million times better.
X is The X Factor - Liberty x are back with some brilliant songs to go with the ulmighty song for lovers with reverend run. Starting with the brilliant X Liberty x do some reviewing of their own - Xtra ordinary, Xtra naughty- we do what we have to we do it in styleIts ok follows with then there was you, the 2 best tracks. Shotgun is a up tempo number which will ring in your head all day then yo dj with a great beat. In my bed does let the album down a bit with boring lyrics and a boring tune. Thinking That it was down hill from there you switch to number 8 and love it DIRTY CASH the stevie wonder hit but with liberty x written all over it. This album has become more r&b for liberty x and move your body with prove it much, with the lyrics almost hip hop style with la la la backing it up. Divine Intervention is more like a cry for help to god which is a bad end to the new material but this is an album with an ending, ending with four of liberty x s greatest hits, Being Nobody, Got To Have Your Love, Holding On For You For and Just A Little.Liberty X Prove There more Than Flopstars Starz!!!! :-)
