Parents need to know that though Demi Lovato doesn't use foul language or discuss adult themes like sex and drugs on this album, the record's overall message -- that romantic love is overwhelmingly hurtful and disappointing -- is a dismal one, especially for young adults.
Positive messages:Lovato's message about dating and relationships is largely a negative one, with most of her songs revolving around either terrible breakups or wariness that a good relationship will eventually go wrong.
While the overall message of the album might be a negative one, and a pessismist view on love, all of her songs can be applied to life and are honest. This CD, in my opinion, is a lot more grown-up and overall better than her last one, titled Don't Forget. I think among her songs, the most impressive are "World of Chances" and "Remember December". These songs demonstrate an older Lovato, and one that writes more impressive lyrics. On the album, there are songs of all genres, whether its a soulful one in the song "Everytime You Lie" or a sweet ballad in "Catch Me". She seems to have departed from the cheesy, tween music of the Jonas Brothers- on her last album every song was co-written by them- and moved on to mature songs that are greatly written. The songs are all honest, and they don't lead you to believe that life is a fairytale. I think that "Here We Go Again" has emerged from among the Disney crowd, and puts Lovato right up there with every other serious artist, perhaps better than some. With her phenomenal voice, I rank Here We Go Again number one, and can't wait for what she has coming next.
Yes, positive messages. Demi shows people that you are who you are and nobody is in charge of what you do and that you need to be yourself! She's a good role model because of that great fact! Go Demi!
I like Demi Lovato. I have her first CD and always saw her as a good role model. I bought her second CD and I like it. She seems to have grown up a little from her first, but hasn't added sexual content or bad language. Her voice has grown and she seems more comfortable with her singing in this album. I love her voice and it seems there is a more old-style sound to her music. I really enjoyed her CD.
Looking for a role model? Try Selena Gomez not Demi
Demi Lovato is a horrible role model. Parents look at people like Fergie and Britney Spears and say there's something wrong with them or you shouldn't watch or listen to anything they're in but, reality is, Demi Lovato has been in rehab! How does that make her a good or better role model? What has she done that makes her a role model anyway? The album isn't that bad but, Demi is just another "look at me I can sing and act" Disney star and she's actually worst then most of them. Parents shouldn't let their kids look up to a future Lindesy Lohan stuck up diva like Demi Lovato.
Lovato is the best singer to come out of Disney, and definitely deserving of some praise!
I have both of Demi's CDs and they are both fabulous. She is saying that women can be whatever they want, they can break up with the guys and show them who's boss! That isn't a bad message. She CAN get dark, which makes her the best to come out of Disney! Thank you for Demi Lovato!
I LOVE IT! It's an awesome CD and of course you are gonna hear things about dating- music is about expressing your feeling and that's exactly what she did!
I love this Album. The thing that I think is interesting about Demi Lovato is that she doesn't have a great voice but an ECCELENT taste on songs. Good Girl Demi!!
Demi Lovato shows that love can suck, but if you can find someone who loves you back, you won't be afraid the fall into it. She does warn us about the dangers of being hurt, though. Many of the songs are more mature, it shows a grown up Demi and she isn't going for a Disney look in this one like the last album.
