To be honest it´s impossible to really judge an album just from some snippets. You need to listen the whole thing, and twice better than once BUT... to be honest the Nelly Furtado one I heard the other day seems like a really better album musically (leaving her annoying voice on a side) Maybe it´s just that I´m not much into this pop-rock always sounding the same style. You know: Pink, Kelly Clarkson, etc
