    I rate this title on for age 8 and give it 5.0

    We've been listing to this CD for 2+ years, still love it

    Catchy songs, great for anyone 10+ to listen to. Mild sexual references "Baby, back it up, lay down, what. It was fun but it couldn't last forever" but NOTHING graphic or inappropriate. Fefe does an amazing job of fusing rock and pop and her voice is great. Avril, etc. wish they were as good as her, in my opinion. If I had more money, I'd buy a copy of this CD for every kid I know, girls especially, but my son loves it. I wish she had more commecial success. If you don't have this CD, I urge you to get it!
