What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that this song from The Hills star is fine lyric-wise, even though it's hard to make to it the entire way through without cringing. The music video shows Heidi frolicking on a beach in a tiny bikini.

    Fine for kids, if it doesn't make their ears bleed!

    Sexual Content (Not an Issue): None in the song, but the video features Heidi in a skimpy bikini. Violence (Not an Issue): None. Language (Not an Issue): None. Social Behavior (On): "Spread your wings and fly; I dream and that's a fact, I'm only going higher." Commercialism (Pause): Obvious tie-in to Heidi's show, The Hills. Drugs/Alcohol/Tobacco (Not an Issue): None.

    I rate this title iffy for age 11 and give it 0.0

    Most UNPROFESSIONAL song/video ever.

    I really think that this song's message is alright. And the music overall is okay, although she does lack talent. But the video is so unprofessionally done it teaches us that "if she can make such a low-budgeted video, then so can we". It makes our home videos look too professional. And puh-leeze, the outfit of her in just a bikini must GO.

    wow...

    Heidi definately can't sing. It actually doesn't sound like her. It's totally completely mixed and synthesized. Just because she's a cute blonde with big boobs doesn't mean she should be singing. Just stick to acting on the Hills Heidi...
