Onetime pop guru has taken a sharp turn down Anti-Craft Avenue on this aimlessly meandering and virtually hook-free ballad. Soft, subdued, and subtle to a fault, this number never really kicks in and fizzles out fast.

Rock goddess plays it safe on this formulaic number. Fans will surely embrace her specific, helium-influenced vocal style, but detractors will be unimpressed. These “Planets Of The Universe” seem sorely out of alignment.

“I Need To Know” what song this track reminds me of…Hmmm. Oh well, this Marc Anthony clone should find an audience among the sorely under-served fans of crossover Latin pop. Flamenco guitar, sassy rhythms, and brassy horns all combine for a signature sound – too bad it’s a botched reproduction.

This joke wasn’t funny in junior high, and it’s not funny now -- especially when delivered in the swooning style of a stereotypical boy band.

Hooboy. A word of advice, Sheila: leave the piano-laden confessionals to Tori Amos.

Note to Lit: Never release a live track on which your singer sounds this bad.

Straight outta Orange County and fresh from MTV Spring Break, these guys wanna rock and roll all night and party every day -- but with a spikey haircut.

Adult Contemporary stalwart Wilcox gets about as close to an edge as he's ever gonna get on this live version of "Start With The Ending."

Uninspired wordplay insults the intelligence here, as British “boy band” attempts to snag a slice of American cheese pop.

Observe as TV's pre-fab five give "Liquid Dreams" to the teenage girls of America with this generic, by-the-numbers boyband weeper. Next to these dorks, 'N Sync sound like King Crimson.
