Vanessa Hudgens - 'Baby Come Back To Me'

Post categories:

Fraser McAlpine | 19:47 UK time, Sunday, 14 January 2007

Vanessa HudgensHands up anyone who's surprised that the kids from High School Musical ended up launching their own pop careers? It'll be like a real-life re-enactment before long, with the Vanessa Hudgenses and the Ashley Tisdales battling each other to see who can get to No.1, only without the advantage of being able to read the script and see what happens. Hmmm.

So Vanessa's doing the smart thing and getting in first with this slick, Amelia-style R&B number with a suitably grand string-laden intro. Once we get past that, though, it's not long before you start playing the family favourite game of "which other songs were mashed together to come up with this?" Our shortlist included 'Blink' by Rosie Ribbons, 'Say It Again' by Precious and 'Complicated' by Avril Lavigne, and there's probably still a few that we missed.

Vanessa acquits herself well on the vocals (she sounds more at home singing stuff like this than she did on High School Musical, if you ask me), but it's a bit overproduced and slightly soulless in that kind of relentlessly-perky way that graduates of the school of Disney stardom sometimes have. Maybe the song itself were a little bit more original we wouldn't notice that, but it wasn't, and so we did.

    Good song - but a little 'produced'

    I'm not taking this song seriously - nor did I take High School Musical seriously. Both of them are really cheesey. Not to mention the intro of this song screams " EGO! "

    I real like your album 鈥淰鈥. Most of the songs related to me. My friend would tell me I need a boyfriend. Unlike her I don鈥檛 trust myself to say the right thing. In others words I鈥檓 shy. But there is this person I like but I don鈥檛 think he every notice me. He is a senior in high school just lie me (he has a girlfriend that鈥檚 a junior) we both will be going to college. He plays for my church choir. (So I join the choir). At school we run in different circles, he鈥檚 in the band and I and in FBLA (Future Business Leader of America) Club. We both get fairly good grades in class (he is in my English 4 class) He plays the piano and sings in the school choir. I enjoy playing volleyball and I also song in the school choir tenth and eleven grade year. I not that big on wearing make-up and get my hair and nails done. I dress comfortable sometimes on the Sunday鈥檚 he play鈥檚 I try to dress out of my ordinary. (I like the way you dress must share tips) His girlfriend is a whole lot prettier they I am, Not blemish in her face from acne or a scar on her neck from surgery like I have. She is also on the school dance line. Do you think there is a chance that we could be together even though? One of my mottos is that you can鈥檛 help who you love.

    P.S.: High School Musical is my most favorite movie to watch every time it come on!!!!!!

    P.P.S: I listen to 鈥淰鈥 everyday

    Dear'

    From this statement, you can see how people are not serious. Martin Taylor (I hope that he is not Charles Taylor brother) is so bad. His club must look at the picture of TV5 on Edouardo and they are going t realise that Taylor must be the Bin Laden of soccer. Ref. to "Eduardo au pied du mur" of the 25/02/2008 17:26, on www.tv5.org.

    "Martin Taylor is adamant there was no malicious intent and he is deeply upset by the extent of Eduardo's injury "

    Birmingham statement


    Thanks a lot.
