Title: Decent Voice but Overdone
Product review: When I first heard this single, my honest thought was, "what's this song Mariah Carey's trying to pull off? This is excessive even for her." I think that kind of sums it up. Jessica Simpson has a decent voice, but she sounds like Mariah Carey's apprentice (even the lyrics are Carey-esque) instead of developing her own style. While the beginning of the song isn't bad (and the only reason this got 2 stars), when the song reaches it's climax, a point at which she's obviously trying to show off her vocal prowess, she sounds more like she's shouting at her lover than praising him. It's reminiscent of campy 80's love songs. She's aiming for the new age "Total Eclipse of the Heart", but ended up with an overdone song that could have been decent if she'd just relax and didn't try so hard.
