1) My Life Would Suck Without You: The first single from the album. The song currently holds the record for biggest jump on the U.S. billboard chart from 97 to number 1. I hated the song at first but after a couple listens I liked it. The video was pretty good. 10/10
2) I Do Not Hook Up: The second single from the album. The song was co-written by Katy Perry and she also recorded a version of the song. I liked it more than the first single and I like how the song is saying that you want to fall in love instead of hooking up with a random guy. 10/10
3) Cry: The first ballad on the album. Clarkson wanted the song to be released as the third single from the album but that didn't happen. It did get released as the 5th and final single from the album but only in Germany and Australia. I ignored the song at first but I like it now. 9/10
4) Don't Let Me Stop You: I love this song! This is my favorite song on the album. I question why it wasn't released as a single. The song is about the person you're with and how they can't decide what they want and you're tired of them being hot and cold all the time. 10/10
5) All I Ever Wanted: The fourth single from the album. This song is a cover. The original version of the song was sung by the band Aranda. From the guitar solo at the beginning to the drums and keyboard part at the end, this song is awesome. The song starts slow but the chorus is so "in your face". While it didn't have a video, it did have airplay on radio. 10/10
6) Already Gone: The third single from the album. This song cause controversy because it sounded similar to Beyonce's song, "Halo". Funny enough both songs were produced and co-written by Ryan Tedder. I prefer the acoustic version of this song because I'm not a fan of the version on this album. 7/10
7) If I Can't Have You: This song is about wanting someone and if you can't be with them then you don't want anyone because you feel they are "the one". The song would've been great as a single since it has radio appeal, but the auto-tune on the song isn't needed when Kelly has an amazing voice. Thankfully a she released an acoustic version of the song in 2011 on her "The Smoakstack Sessions ep", and that version is better than the original in my opinion. 8/10
8) Save You: I'm gonna be honest, this is one of the songs I don't really listen to. In fact I decided to listen to it a few minutes ago and thought, wow this song is good. It's a great ballad about wanting to save someone from all their problems. 8/10
9) Whyyawannabringmedown: This song, pronounced "why ya wanna bring me down", is also a cover that was originally sung by the band Aranda. The song is very "in your face" and different from a lot of the stuff she's done but it's an awesome song. 10/10
10) Long Shot: Katy Perry co-write this song too. While Katy's version of "I Do Not Hook Up" is a little better than Kelly's, her version of "Long Shot" is no where near as good as Kelly's. The song is about taking a chance on love despite all the people who are against you and the person you're with. 10/10
11) Impossible: I ignored this song for awhile too. Now I can't get the lyric, "can't change the wind you say, won't matter anyway" out of my head. Great song. 7/10
12) Ready: Uggh. This song is so boring to me. I usually just skip it. 5/10
13) I Want You: The intro to this song is just "WTF". It's so repetitive and in my opinion it's the worst song on the album. 3/10
14) If No One Will Listen: While I don't listen to the song that much, I think it's an amazing ballad that showcases her flawless vocals perfectly. Kelly also produced this song herself. 7/10
"All I Ever Wanted" debuted at number 1 in the U.S. and was much lighter than her previous record. My favorite songs on the album are: "Don't Let Me Stop You", "Long Shot", "Whyyawannabringmedown", "I Do Not Hook Up", "All I Ever Wanted", and "My Life Would Suck Without You". Out of 140 points I give the album 114 which is 81%, a B. Don't surprised if I review another Kelly Clarkson album tomorrow!
