Amazon.com's Best of 2001
These days there are more pop tarts on the charts than on the grocery shelves, and it's awfully hard to tell the kewpie pies apart. Granted Mandy Moore isn't exactly heading into Björk territory, but at least the 16-year-old is attempting to stake her own space. Jon Secada and Emilio Estefan Jr. supply Moore with percussive cuts like the single "In My Pocket" which is laced with a sinewy Middle Eastern sound. Moore also offers up jangly, breathy cuts like the heartfelt "17" which suit her cotton-candy vocals nicely. This isn't great art, but it is enjoyable, disposable pop, and that ain't shabby. --Amy Linden

 *Mandy Moore!* December 9, 2009
Alejandro Juarez (Buenos Aires, Argentina!)
Mandy Moore manages to pack more hooks, melody, beats, clever production flourishes, and fun into its 13 tracks than nearly all of its peers -- remarkably, it's a stronger album, through and through. That doesn't mean that it has singles as strong as those albums; even if the surging "In My Pocket," the faux-sitar spiked "You Remind Me," and hip-hop ballad "Saturate Me" are all fine tunes, meant to be played on the radio. Mandy Moore is such a good record because of consistency. This may not hit tremendous heights, yet everybody involved is working so hard that they've managed to come up with a record that's consistently satisfying. It doesn't stretch the teen pop formula much, just enough to give the record character, and Moore delivers the songs sturdily, never taking the forefront, but blending into the lush, layered production, so the music just rolls forth as a whole. And that whole sounds great -- immaculately crafted, precisely polished, exactly what a teen pop album should be. Of course, it would have been greater if a couple of the songs were genuine knockouts, but usually this genre sacrifices consistency for dizzying peaks and it's refreshing to hear a teen pop record that plays like a record, instead of singles-n-filler.

 Mandy Moore's first self-titled album June 12, 2009

Mandy Moore's 2001 self-titled album still holds
up well. I was 16 when this album came out and I
would listen to the whole album-I never really
skipped any one song. I would also say that half
of this album does sound a bit dated and half
still sounds quite fresh. The reason to buy this
album then was for the catchy single 'In My
Pocket' a trillion times better than 'Candy' and a
lot faster than her slow hit single 'I wanna Be
With You'(excluding the dance re-mix). The next
few songs were fun dance-y pop all in the same
vain as in my pocket but never quite as catchy and
though these are still good to listen to the fact
that pop like this isnt around anymore dates these
tracks. The rest of the album still sounds quite
fresh-some slightly creak but for the most part
Mandy could easily include these in her recent
set-though I can imagine that she would stay away
from 'yo-yo'-good song but childish title.
1. In My Pocket-The best of the dance songs on this or any Mandy Moore album and still holds up quite well. She sounds great. 10/10
2. You Remind Me-Very light and very upbeat but not the very best.Everything My Heart Desires off of her last album was much better. 6/10
3.Saturate Me-Starts off romantic and exotic but the poppy chorus drag it down a bit but overall a good song. 8/10
4. One Sided Love-It almost sounds like In My Pocket the sequel and like most sequels its not as good as the first. 6/10
5. 17-I used to love, love this song I had it on repeat-so I consider it one of the best on the album. Has aged very well and has a good message. 10/10
6. Cry-This song was huge for Mandy once A Walk to Remember became a success for her-but that was before this album came out so when I first heard it, it didnt really stand out for me. I liked it only after the film but at this point it was not a favorite-I do wish its sequel 'Hey' had been released but it looks like its not meant to be. 8/10
7. 'Crush' Mandy's second but less successful single-though popular with the fans-its not the best song titled 'Crush' I think that belongs to
Jennifer Paige's 'Crush'-not that it crushes Mandy's since both are still good but this one is not as catchy-8/10
8. It Only Took A Minute-I never skipped this song but its not one of her best. 7/10
9. Turn the Clock Around-A lot more fun than the previous track but again not one of her best. 7/10
10. Yo-yo-Now this is one of her best tracks. 9/10
11. From Loving You-This song is what Mandy sounds like now-it could have easily been on Wild Hope-her voice is strong and the style is similar-quite different from anything else on this album. 9/10
12. Split Chick-Another one of Mandy's fun upbeat pop songs-and also one of her best with an added bonus of holding up well. 9/10
13. When I Talk To You-Maybe this song should have been left off the album and ended with Split-Chick but maybe that would have made the album too poppy. Still this song drags the whole album down a bit. 6/10
Overall a good album-with a lot of hidden and
forgotten gems. And technically with Mandy's
newest release 'Amanda Leigh' Mandy may be the
first artist ever to have two self-titled albums.
8/10

It seems like in the world of pop that the only artist that comes to mind is Britney Spears. But Mandy Moore is truly marching to the beat of her own drum. This 2nd album from Mandy Moore was a wonderous pleasent surprise. Not only has her voice matured but the musical content that she sings about has matured as welled. There are some truly great songs on here and the sad part is that some didnt even get to see the light of day. I am glad that a video for CRY was made because that's a great song. Another stand out song on the album is Only Took One Minute. It truly is such ashame that this song never made it to the radios or video music realm. If you havent picked up this album you should check it out. Its one of her best if not the best.
 More mature with improved vocals, yet not super strong August 17, 2006

I'll start off by saying that I'm a big fan of pop and I like all of the major U.S. pop singers/groups from 1997-2001. I even own at least the debut albums of Mandy, Jessica, Christina, and Britney, and I like all of them. And I think all of them have some type of talent or charisma (or both).
I must say that from what I heard of this album, I feel it was a step in the right direction for Mandy. Sure, she had a few catchy songs on the So Real album in terms of beats and lyrics, but her vocals weren't too good, and overall, the album was a little bit on the too cutesy side. After she released the "I Wanna Be With You" song, there was a major change in her vocals, in which she showed she had a nice quality to her voice, and I think it made people notice more that she was talented. She continued with the new style of singing on this album, and it helps to make this album a breath of fresh air compared to So Real. In fact, I must say that out of the four major young pop divas here in the U.S., Mandy is the only one who I feel has actually improved her vocals, while the others have gotten slightly worse or way worse, in my opinion.
However, I feel that though this album had better vocals and a more mature style that reflected Mandy growing as a person and an artist, it still suffers from something So Real did, and that is a lack of strong songs. I think that on a whole, the Mandy Moore album is more listenable, so I would call this album an improvement over So Real, but there are only a few standouts, and the rest of the songs are lukewarm and sort of dull to me. I believe she released the best songs ("In My Pocket," "Crush," "Cry"), but several of the other songs weren't enough to hold my attention.
For fans who prefer more "pure pop" or R&B tinged pop that some of the other pop stars are doing, this album might not be for you, because it's more rock influenced (think Michelle Branch, Avril, Ashlee, etc). I just think Mandy needs to get more strong songs for the whole album overall the next time she releases an album, and I think she'll be fine. Had this album even come out a year later (in 2002), I think it could have been more successful because other pop-rock artists such as Michelle Branch and Avril Lavigne were starting the young-female-pop-with-a-rock-edge movement in music, and I think Mandy could have fit right in. Best of luck in the future Mandy.
