Kelly Clarkson - Breakaway

Glossy of-the-moment pop - a mix of big ballads and anthemic rockers. Good value, though the first six songs on the album are far better than the second. "Since U Been gone" is the certifiable classic, of course, but I've plenty of appreciation left over for "Behind These Hazel Eyes" and "Gone" in particular. Hooks galore and songs well sold by Clarkson.
