What Parents Need to Know

About `Tattoo` (CD single)

Parents need to know that this American Idol winner delivers a decent first single about love and getting out of it when the time is right. The lyrics and message are tame -- if not lame -- and fine for all ages.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about working hard to keep what you have. American Idol gave Sparks her start, but it doesn't guarantee her future. Kids, what does it take to do well on your own, and does Sparks have enough talent and strength to stand strong?

    I love the song but........

    I really like the song. It has a good beat, good lyrics, and is clean. What else could you ask for???? On my feeling on Sparks and her music in genral????? Well, I'm not really sure if I like her yet. But if she keeps what she has going then she will be a very succesful singer.
