Lindsay Lohan leaps into her much anticipated debut CD with a blast of something that simulates warmed-over Led Zeppelin (the lyrically ferocious "First") and from there finesses it into a stylish experiment in pounding away at teen pop's predictability. Influences--not all of whom her 8-to-14-year-old fans will flip to, or even find, in their pinup mags--loom large: While the Ashlee Simpson-like rocker "Nobody 'Til You" winds into the Jessica Simpson-y "Symptoms of You," the lovelorn "Something I Never Had," taps a sweetly unself-conscious vocal vein that owes gratitude to the otherwise highly un-Lohan-like Lisa Loeb. Though Lohan might balk at the comparison--she is, after all, the "Ultimate"-spawning original teenage drama queen--fellow tween queen Hilary Duff's stamp is pressed firmly into stormy self-explorers like "Disconnected" and "Anything But Me." Where "
Speak
" intones loudest, though, is in its least-rocking, most beat-propelled songs: The title track dips and bounces tantalizingly, begging hands-in-the-air listeners to "c'mon and let it out"; "To Know Your Name" digitizes a sexy hip-hop inflected dance number; and "Rumors," a J. Lo-like thumper (and one in a trifecta of pouts over the pitfalls of stardom) ends this disc on a don't-stop, bound-for-diva-dom note. -Tammy La Gorce

Lindsay's Best : This Was Actually GREAT!
As a fan of anything pop/rock, I went into this album with minimal expectations and returned having discovered a CD that is infinitely better than both Ashlee Simpsons' "I Am Me" or "Autobiography".
Great songs abound here - "Symptoms of You" is the standout due to its' catchy chorus, and the lead single "Rumors" sounds like something Britney Spears accidentally forgot to release as HER first single (meaning its good). I especially liked "To Know Your Name". I can imagine putting this on during a party and the crowd going wild.
The sad part is that the best song recorded for this album, "Magnet", was totally left off the US Edition of the CD (which is the version you are currently reading about). This is a Eurythmics meets Cyndi Lauper pop song in a very '80s vein - this was just so different from anything else on the CD, and it was obviously the best thing here. Too bad, however you can get it on the Japanese Version of the CD as an import, or just search the interwebs for it.
Most people hate Lohan, but I listened to this album hardly having watched her in anything. This worked for me, because I could appreciate the album for what it is - a solid pop/rock album that is better than other divas of the same age group, i.e. Jojo, Hilary Duff, Ashlee Simpson etc. This album is the pick of that pack, so you might want to pick this up pronto.

Not bad but 2nd was better
This album wasn't too bad but I perferred her second album more. There were good songs like "Over" "First" "
Speak
" "Symptoms Of You"
why does everyone not like this CD?
I got this CD in forth grade. I was sick one day, so my momma got me this CD. I was already happy because i loved (and still do!) ''Rumors.''
i recomend.
Not Bad
This album was pretty good. I'm not a fan of Lindsay Lohan, but her music is pretty upbeat. I had all the albums to another singer I love, and thought maybe I'll try Lindsay, and see what she's like. It's not bad, but it's not the best either. The songs I like are First,
Speak
, and Rumors.
