Following in the footsteps of teen-actress-turned-singing-star Hilary Duff, Lindsay Lohan delivers SPEAK, an accomplished album of radio-ready pop. Balancing dance-floor grooves of the Britney Spears/Christina Aguilera variety with rock moves borrowed from the Avril Lavigne/Michelle Branch axis, Lohan sings with authority over razor-sharp club beats (the title track, "To Know Your Name") and amps-on-11 guitar riffs ("First") in equal measure. Along the way, she also tackles piano-driven power ballads ("Symptoms of You"), John Mayer-style jazzy, acoustic pop ("Something I Never Had"), and Gwen Stefani-esque electronica-informed rock ("Anything But Me"). Though Lohan had little to do with writing most of these songs, the lyrics are well suited to her unique situation of living in the public eye from a young age, and they often address the difficulties of maintaining close personal relationships. A surprisingly diverse and accomplished debut, SPEAK proves that Lohan has the mettle and talent necessary to compete with other young pop superstars.
Having already had prior songs on the soundtracks for 'Mean Girls' & 'The Princess Diaries 2', Lindsay Lohan's gives us 'Speak' her debut album that features the hit songs 'Rumours' & 'Over'. This enhanced version features a video & a bonus remix version of 'Rumours'. Island. 2005.

Lindsay Lohan Is The Greatest In The World!!!!! I think Lindsay Lohan is a living legend shes got the looks, shes got style, she can act and she can sing.
This album is awesome and everyone who hates her can go to hell!!! I have never watched a Lindsay Lohan movie until Herbie Fully Loaded and i thought she was a great actress so i decided to watch her other films and they were even better, I've liked Lindsay Lohan ever since and i just hope she doesn't ruin her career and stop making films cause shes so beutiful.

Rumors rule! Well..to be honest..her cd isn't the ''the best'' but it includes an amazing song called ''Rumors'' . If u are not a Lindsay's fan then the only song ,which u'll really like is ''Rumors'' as well as ''Speak''that;s why I bought it. I think that ''Rumors'' worth the 4 stars...
