Jessica Simpson - Irresistible

That Jessica Simpson has been groomed to become the next (as well as younger, whiter, and more virginal) Mariah Carey should come as no great shock. Production by slavish imitation is the way it goes these days, and wanting to duplicate Carey's success is understandable. Yet the downside of idol worship (Simpson grew up with the octave-conquering diva as a touchstone) is the loss of unique identity, and sadly that's exactly what has occurred. From the wordless sighs to the mock Spanish guitars added for international appeal, to the overwrought power ballads and faux hip-hop flavored up-tempo cuts, Simpson, who can sing, is a prisoner of by-the-numbers production and songs by the usual pop/R&B-lite suspects. The end result is sonically stellar, but is too close to a generic endeavor that does little to establish Simpson as an artist. Still, Irresistible will no doubt firm up her already serious stats as a rising young star. --Amy Linden Amazon.com

Complete garbage!

Jessica Simpson's second album Irresistible is an awful and over-produced pop album. There are only 2 good tracks, What's It Gonna Be and For Your Love. The rest of the album is silly and soulless. This album flopped and it's not hard to see why. Leave this one in the dumpster. November 19, 2007

Bland, boring

Compared to Mandy Moore, Simpson's voice is bland and always sounds the same. The music is also boring. That's all I have to say. This music is really bad, and I don't mean that in a "good" way. November 5, 2007

Simply Irresistible

"Irresistible", "A Little Bit", "Forever in your Eyes", "For your Love", "I never" and a great duet with Marc Anthony make this CD Irresistible. September 1, 2006

Jessica's Take My breath Away

Jessica Simpson is both a fine singer and actress,however, she does not compare with the originals like Berlin or Catherin Bach.Which she copied in Take My Breath Away and Dukes of Hazard.
