What Parents Need to Know

About `Damaged` (CD single)

Parents need to know that this pop single from MTV's Making the Band is age-appropriate and harmless. The lyrics talk about how a past breakup is ever present even when a new love comes along -- but relies on the man to fix a broken heart. The music video shows the girls in some skimpy outfits dancing a bit suggestively.
