Chris Daughtry starts his first post-American Idol disc with a song whose title reviewers coast to coast will be grateful for: "It's Not Over." What an understatement. For the Idol-watching rock fan's money, nobody--not even Southern-fried heartthrob Bo Bice in season four--stormed the stage with more raw talent. That it translates so well to a solo disc (Daughtry was recorded with studio musicians; future discs will include a Daughtry-assembled band) proves all he needed was a little prodding, the kind the tube has gotten so good at. Here are a dozen songs that'll flick your rock & roll switch, whether you're a Creed fan, a club kid, or a mambo king: "Used To" and "Over You," a couple of early tracks, ought to arrive bundled with a road map they're so highway sing-along-ready, and "Feels Like Tonight" screws the lid on the premise that Daughtry can deliver a punchy pop-rock song without flinching. Elsewhere, the North Carolina family man lets his inner (and outer, actually) goatee- and eyeliner-type guy rip: his built-for-the-hard-stuff voice bites down appealingly on "Breakdown," a dark serenade to mental health, and also on "What I Want," an '80s-style fist-pumper featuring Slash. The loud mad dash of those songs leads to a midtempo wind-down ("All These Lives," "What About Now"), but as a mix, it works. Daughtry is a man of many moods--contemplative, explosive, insistent, humble. No matter which pokes through on a given song, he steadies it to a place as honest as it is accessible. Rare is the rocker who lays out so broad an on-ramp. --Tammy La Gorce

Rating: - As Good as They Come
Season five of American Idol will probably go down as one of the show's best, and it truly is, considering that a man who was eliminated before the final episode has released a debut album this amazing. "Daughtry" oozes the rock that made Chris Daughtry a standout talent on a show full of would-be pop stars, and being booted off early may have been the best thing for him. One thing's for sure: this album is as good as they come.

Rating: - Very good 1st release
I really enjoyed Chris on American Idol, and like many others, was devastated and shocked the week he was eliminated.In my opinion, he should have won the competition.I waited for a while after this album was released to purchase this album.I know that a lot of the AI artists go on to make albums and some are good, and others are not so good.I guess this was the reason that I waited.

Well, I shouldn't have waited so long.I am not going to give an opinion of every song, song ... Read More
