Great music by Lily Allen. Content is innapropriate for younger ones, but the clean versions will have them singing along. The messages aren't at all nice, and each song has a dark theme. What amuses me is how she can change a nice happy song into a piece revolving around sex, drugs, and other non kid friendly subjects. Overall, an excellent album.

What Parents Need to Know
About Alright, Still
Parents need to know that Lily Allen's undeniable charm lies in her biting wit, which also produces some pretty ribald lyrics. But the four-letter words are considerably less noticeable than they would be on, say, a gangster rap album, because Allen's lilting voice breezes right through the vulgarities. The four-letter words (f--k, s--t, c--t, and whore) only pop up a few times, however, and what's left is a sweet, breezy album that's loads of fun. Allen keeps its simple and personal, and because of that, girls of any age, and even their male counterparts, can relate to her songs.

Clean Versions Are Fine For 13+
I am 13 and I listen to Lily Allen songs but the only way my mom lets me listen is if they are the Clean version. I agree with Common Sense, 16+ if they listen to the explicit version but most songs like Littlest Things (which is perfectly clean), Smile, and The Fear are fine. I find Alfie very catchy but it mentions drugs and smoking a lot so that one is a bit iffy. But otherwise, if you listen to the clean versions of her songs it's fine for 13+!!

It depends on what song your listning to. most of them are kind of explicit, except the song LDN.

The Best CD Ever!
Usually, with a CD, like 2 of the songs are good and the rest you just skip through to hear the good songs. But with this CD, all the songs are good, and you should totally buy it because they're all so catchy, and hippy, and awesome! :-) And the most iffy thing is the song "Not Big" where she insults her ex-boyfriend, and she says that he doesn't have a big penis (it's not that outright, though). They have a few cuss words here and there, but if your kid is mature and responsible, than they can totally handle it. You might want to, right before giving your kid the CD, say something like "I'm giving you this CD because I believe that you are mature enough to listen to it, but I really don't want to hear you repeating any bad words you hear on it." All of the cuss words are probably nothing they haven't heard before if they are like 10+. :-) Have a great time listening to this awesome CD by the best singer ever!!!!
