What Parents Need to Know
About "Crush" (CD single)
Parents need to know that this first song off American Idol's up-coming album discusses a romantic crush. However, the lyrics are sweet and innocent and rarely even teeter toward sexual; instead they concentrate on the common teen emotions of insecurity, confusion, and euphoria.

Decent.
A typical teen pop album about love, most especially crushes (Duh!). Choice songs from this album are: Crush, Too Not Over You, My Hand and Barriers. A pretty decent album and not too over the top.
