Victoria proves herself a worthy singer

To be honest this album had amazingly underperformed. From start to finish the album is exceptional. There are no filler tracks, or interludes. Interestingly unlike her fellow Spice Girls, Geri, Melanie C and Melanie B, Victoria wastes no time moanoing about fame and media intrusion, instead opting to sing about her real cares, her family and love. Highlights include the declarations of love to her husband, the orchestra led 'I.O.U.' and 'Unconditional Love'. The song for her son 'Every Part Of Me' is tender and yet not soppy. The RnB/Garage/Pop track 'I Wish' is sheer musical genius. The singles 'Not Such An Innocent Girl' and 'A Mind Of Its Own' speak for themselves. The moody 'Girlfriend', 'Like That' and the multi-interpreted 'Watcha Talkin' 'bout' are fantastic. The mid-tempo number 'That Kind Of Girl' is gorgeous to the ear.
In conclusion this album should have established Beckham as a mainstream solo star, but for one reason and another didn't. It's most likely that had Britney, Madonna or Kylie released this it would've became multi-platinum and award winning. It's also fair to say that Victoria shows stronger vocal ability than any of the aforementioned leading ladies of pop.
My advice is buy this but don't listen to it as Victoria Beckham, and let the music speak for itself, you never know Victoria may prove herself to you.
If Mrs.Beckham ever decides to make another record, more of the same please.
