E=MC2 Review
After listening to the album (all day) I wanted to leave some comments on the tracks that stand out to me.
"Side Effects"
This song has some amazing lyrics, very personal as what appears to be a look back at MC's past relationship with Tommy. Mimi starts with:
I was a girl, you was a man
I was too young to understand
I was naive, I just believed
Everything that you told me
Said you were strong, protecting me
Then I found out that you were weak
Keeping me there under your thumb
Cause you were scared that I'd become much
More than you could handle
Shining like a chandelier
That decorated every room
Inside this private hell we built
"I'm That Chick"
This so reminds me of a track that would have been on Glitter. very disco/80's feeling.
"Bye Bye"
This is set to be released as the second single, as Mimi pays tribute to lost loved ones. "One Sweet Day" revisited.
"I Stay In Love"
I Stay In Love was one of the first tracks that stood out to me. I love it. It is an amazing ballad and I think this albums "We Belong Together"
Other great tracks to check out are:
"Love Story"
"Migrate"
"I Wish You Well"
All you old school MC fans will love this its like "Vanishing" meets "Fly Like A Bird"

i think side effects is one of her most personal songs ever, ive never heard her been so blatantly honest on a track before
loving you long time is probably my favourite non ballad on the album, its so cute.
HEY DON'T FORGET CRUISE CONTROL WITH D. MARLEY!! LOVE IT!!
I am feeling For the Record, something about that track.
