I'm Coming Clean
I like Hilary Duff's music, so sue me. My music tastes have always been much more id driven than my movie taste and I think that Duff represents that perfectly. Her movies are basically the cinematic incarnations of her songs (light, frothy, girly) and in my mind are almost universally bad. The only two that I will openly admit to liking are "Cheaper By The Dozen" and "Agent Cody Banks" and neither of those were vehicles built around her. Both of her art forms have the distinct taste of being cooked up in laboratory, but while the movies remind me of Spam the music goes down easy like a delicious Chicken McNugget.
"Wake Up", "Come Clean", and "So Yesterday" are three of my favorite pop songs of the past five years. "Wake Up", which I'm sure was supposed to be a melancholy take on celebrity lifestyle but ends up sounding like a disingenuous princess whining is a near perfect bubblegum song. It slaps around pretty much everything the blond bimbos of the 90's put out and I could listen to that song all day. And I certainly do not trust anybody who tells me that they are not charmed by the melody of "So Yesterday." Yes all these songs were written by people other than Duff and are extremely guilty pleasures. But do you want my honest take on this album or do you want me to lie. This is a greatest hits album so I have to deduct some points just to be fair. It is a great collection of songs to be sure, but it represents many years and many albums. I'm sure that I am saving myself a whole lot of pain and suffering by skipping over the filler on the previous albums and just sticking to the good stuff (go on and laugh). Also, I have no intentions of defending her weak points as an artist. She is what she is, which is a spoiled, rich Momma's girl who has probably never made one career decision in her entire life. She has never taken on a project, in music or film, that is the least bit challenging or edgy. Instead she has stuck with her Disney Channel created image and tried to ride that as far as it would take her. Or put another way, there is a difference between saying a girl can rock and a girl actually rocking. Personally, I blame her emotionally weak mother whose name shows up on way too many gossip pages, but what do I know?
I am assuming that most of you are snickering at me right now, very secure in your knowledge that you are far too sophisticated to listen to anything as silly as this. But I strongly urge you to get over your pretensions. And no, I have no interest in hearing from the music snobs either since every one of you I have ever met has had the most corporate movie taste imaginable. Word on the street says that on her new album Duff writes her own lyrics, but I have yet to hear it. "Most Wanted" sounds like it was written for 10 year old girls, and it probably was, and still it got plenty of spins on my CD player. ***1/2

Not really the "Most Wanted" songs
I own this cd and like it. But I have all of her other cds so really this cd had nothing new except the 3 new songs. Break My Heart and Beat of my Heart are sort of the same. I think she should have done a different title, there too much alike. This is a good cd for first time Hilary listeners, because it has all of her best. But it seems like the "best" of Hilary wasn't what I thought were the best songs of her. But I would recemend this cd to those who don't know Hilary's music yet, and want to hear what she's like.

She's going down "Hil"
I don't own this album and personally would never want to. I do have Metamorphosis, but I bought that when I was 15 years old. I listened to a few songs on here because of an article I read stating the worst albums in each genre. This was one of them. Being a former Hilary Duff fan, I decided to check it out.
If you like a girl who's trying to be in the rock genre, but doing very poorly at it, this album is for you.
