THE BEST ALBUM I HAVE HEARD ALL YEAR! Nov 04, 2009 Honestly, I cannot understand how so many talentless, non-song-writing "artists" are getting all the radio airtime when there are true artists like Lesley Roy just trying to get people to listen to her work. This young, amazing Irish youngster has the talent of someone twice her age. Her voice is like so few I have heard, her songs' lyrics are thought-provoking and each song will grab hold of you and not let go, they are so catchy. I am not a youngster myself, but a 38-year-old mom who just happens to enjoy music like Lesley makes. My favorite songs are:
1)Unbeautiful
2)Thinking Out Loud (which also happens to be Lesley's favorite as well)
3)Dead But Breathing
4)Slow Goodbye
5)Come Back (a crushing song about the loss of a loved one)
6)I'm Gone, I'm Going
7)Here For You Now
Of course, there are other GREAT songs on the album, these are just the ones that get replayed over and over on my mp3 player. The main rule of any album is "are there at least four completely great songs that I love?" then it is worth buying. I very rarely ever buy a complete album anymore because so few of them ever fit the above rule. Every single song on Lesley's album is outstanding which is so rare these days. Lesley needs to be headlining shows instead of being a warm-up act. Please spread the word about this phenomenal singer/songwriter so we get the privilege of owning a sophomore album.

Unbeautiful Is Beautiful Jun 30, 2009 I heard Lesley Roy on mtv's show Exiled. I figured to get the cd, and it turned out that I really liked it a lot. I think she is a mix between Kelly Clarkson and Avril Lavigne. To Me Lesley Roy has her own unique sound. I like that how she writes lyrics. The songs on Unbeautiful you can relate to in your own life.
My favorite songs on Unbeautiful are:
1. Unbeautiful
2. Thinking Out Loud
3. Misfit
4. Make It Back
5. Come To Your Senses

Why is she not a SUPERSTAR? May 25, 2009 This album should have been mass produced...gone number one in countries and spawned heaps of hit singles...why didn't it?
Her voice is raw, rough, almost Bonnie Tyler like...add some thoughtful rock...one rock/dance mash up that will get anyone strutting and it makes an amazing album that has somehow slipped under the radar...
But don't let it pass you, buy this, show your friends and start a LESLEY REVOLUTION....

Great CD Apr 27, 2009 I first heard and saw Lesley Roy on a VH1 video with her song I'm Going, I'm Gone. I fell in love with it immediately and then downloaded it. I then decided to order her debut CD after looking her up on Amazon. Wow, this CD got really great after a few listens. I love every song on the album which rarely happens to me, especially with an artist I purchase on a whim. This is one buy that really paid off. I have to say that the song Unbeautiful is my favorite. I can listen to it over and over and this CD has'nt left my car stereo in months, so that is something as I can get bored quickly. I guess Lesley Roy kind of sounds like a huskier Kelly Clarkson. Her songs are pop, but with a bit of an edge that makes them endure longer than the average pop song. Her voice can sound quite husky and rough, but she can also soar which is a wonderful mix. She seems super talented and I can't wait until she has her next album. I hope this one sells well. I highly recommend it.
