What parents need to know

Parents need to know that a couple of songs on this Nick TV show soundtrack are about daydreaming about a relationship with a best friend's brother, a cheating boyfriend, and revenge, so while the overall content and lyrics are clean, the songs are best for older kids or fans of the show.

  • Positive messages2
    "All I Want Is Everything" is all about giving the best of yourself, even when people might tell you that you don't measure up. Other songs reference revenge and cheating (in a relationship).
  • Positive role models2
    "Song 2 You" is about being yourself, not caring about material things, and opening up to someone you love.
  • Violence & scariness0

What's the story?

The VICTORIOUS SOUNDTRACK features 13 songs from the TV show and popular singles from the show's star, Victoria Justice, including the theme song "Make It Shine," "Best Friend's Brother," "Beggin' on Your Knees," and "Leave It All to Shine" with iCarly's Miranda Cosgrove.

Is it any good?

 

Justice is yet another teenager in a long list of TV starlets who sing -- but the difference is that she actually can sing. Although the lyrics and music on the Victorious Soundtrack are typical tween pop fluff, Justice's vocals are mature and expressive. Standouts include the Jackson 5 cover "I Want You Back," and "All I Want Is Everything," a fast-paced, power-anthem about believing in yourself and giving your best.

What families can talk about

  • Families can talk about shows -- like Victorious -- about regular people "trying to be stars." Do you think our culture is too obsessed with celebrities and being famous? Do you think that's why reality shows are so popular?

  • Although Victoria Justice is still a teen, she, like many young stars, is often presented to seem older, with lots of make-up and sexy clothes. What kind of message do you think this image sends to young girls and teenagers?

  • Would you buy this soundtrack if you weren't a fan of the TV show? Does the music make you want to watch the show?
