So on Oct 11, Big Time Rush (aka one of the best bands in the world!!!) released their 1st cd,
BTR! It has 11 songs on it and they are all amazing! I love all of them but these are the rankings for the songs....
1. Worldwide & Nothing Even Matters ~ both songs are equally sweet and the lyrics make you want to say awhhh! (and possibly want the big time rush boys to be your big time boyfriend :P)
3. Oh Yeah ~ an awesome party song that has you wanting to get up and dance by the time the 2nd verse starts!
4. Big Night ~ if you're having a bad day then this song will definately lift your spirits!
5. Till I Forget About You ~ a cheerful breakup song that will be helpful for a bf/gf breakup or a friend breakup (or something else you want to forget, like a big math test :P, okay that was a joke, you still need to study for a math test no matter what or else you'll be stuck working at McDonald's!)
6. I Know You Know & Boyfriend ~ both are great songs, I Know You Know is good to let lose to and if you need to plan a dance routine at anytime, Boyfriend is perfect! ( i mean that in a good way :) if you need to practice dance moves for anything it's got the perfect beat for it!)
8. City Is Ours ~ okay so you know how you sometimes get that unstoppable perfect party feeling? this song sums up that in 3:11! i always listen to it before a dance,party or when i travel to a new place
9. Halfway There ~ this song helps when you're working towards your goals in life and decide to give up, it reminds you that you've made it this far so keep going or else you won't go anywhere
10. Count On You ~ a great love song that was originally* a duet with Jordin Sparks, this song appeared in the episode Big Time Sparks in which Jordin guest starred! * i said originally because i haven't heard the album version yet :( i still only have the tv version.
11. Big Time Rush (Theme Song) ~ the theme song for the show has all 4 guys singing in it and it talks about how instead of living life the way everyone else does, you should shake it up once in a while and just let loose sometimes!
Review: 3 words; Ah-maz-ing!!! This cd shows a slightly different side of the band, a different non-nickelodeon side that shows they can appeal to anybody. Quite a few of these songs are designed for getting attention from mainstream radio stations (Oh Yeah is definatley one of them)!
