5 Start CD Oct 18, 2009 Awesome Cd. I wish they had played some of these songs when I saw them last year.

this album will rock your ears! Oct 13, 2009 After a few samples from Amazon, I knew I had to have this mp3 album!
I love pop, and I love this album! My favorite track is the title to the CD. "Love Drunk". It is so catchy. I could listen to it all day. That's the good thing
about mp3's. They don't wear out! If I had the CD I'd probably wear it out. Now I am becoming a fan of Boys like Girls. They make good music. I look forward to their next album. I hope it is just as good as this one! With more catchy tunes! Buy this if you love good high energy pop or, are a fan of BLG.

disappointing....wait, no....crappy Sep 28, 2009 I'll do the requisite 1-star review I guess...
The vocals on this album are so annoyingly hammed up it just about killed it for me immediately: when he sang "...but now I'm hung o-vahhh" I wanted to stab myself. Knives were downstairs though. Clearly their target audience has shifted decisively toward people with training bras.
The next day I gave it all a second listen, thinking I wasn't in the mood or something. I really liked most of the first one after all. But no! It was just as annoying, hooray!
So...there's too much electronic BS. They had these things in the first album, what are they called...guitars and drums. Hard to tell now. That wouldn't really matter except the songs are genuinely so much worse than the first. Some seem to start off alright but the choruses almost all fell flat. So many times I thought "that's it?" The answer was "yes".
But let's see, in order to salvage something from this, Shot Heard 'Round the World is okay. The slow songs aren't my taste but they're pleasant enough I guess. And hmm, Real Thing I don't think I'll burn at the stake.
Instead I'd recommend All Time Low's new album. It has the same annoying electronic-y stuff but the songs are actually good, so I don't care.

Very Sophomoric Sophomore effort... Sep 21, 2009 BLG's first album, Boys Like Girls, was an all around perfect album. Boys Like Girls Love Drunk, however, is not. I'm not saying it's bad, but it just does not even come close to living up to how good the first album was. I remember all the songs from the first album. All the songs on this CD, with the possible exception of Love Drunk, are very forgettable. Im not even saying Love Drunk is anywhere near as good as their older stuff, just sayin its the "first single" for this CD so ofcourse it will remembered. Is it worth a purchase? Eh...I was pretty excited to get it, and then not so excited after one listen through...I havent even had the urge to put it in a second time yet...I probably will and maybe it will grow on me...lets hope so.

BLG's 2nd Album... Sep 20, 2009 The sophomore album for an artist can be hard; usually they go in a new direction or mature into their signature sound. With Boys Like Girl's Love Drunk it didn't really go anywhere! I waiting for that push to make it go to the next level, but throughout all 11 of the songs, it wasn't there. I have to say I was really disappointed with this album. Being a fan of their earlier work, I was thought this album would be a the second chapter in their music history. It really wasn't. The songs are similar to their sound, with the poppy guitars and lyrics about lovers in the past. It was just wasn't really something you'd take notice of. It was really bland, and weak second album. The songs I like are "Love Drunk" and "Go" for their different sound. I got this as a birthday present...yikes. I suggest borrowing a copy from a friend before buying it. Just to see if you would take this plunge.
