Candy Audio

Having heard Mandy sing the songs in the animated movie "Tangled", I decided to purchased copies of all her CD's. I absoluetly love her voice.

I ordered the Mandy Moore "Candy" CD and was VERY happy with it. Completely like new. No skipping, No scratches...I would definitely buy from this user again if I saw their name come up. Thanks for a wonderful product!

One would think Sony's shameless cash-in of Mandy Moore's `Best Of' would have been enough, but apparently not-they also felt the need to release `Candy,' a CD that is much more a collection of album cuts than hits (in fact, only two of these ten tracks were released as singles). Admittedly, it's quite cheap, so it's a sweet little treat to the most casual of fans who mainly enjoyed her earliest work. "Candy" is a catchy, sugarcoated, honey-slathered morsel of a teen pop song, and "I Wanna Be With You," one of Mandy's biggest hits, is a ballad I used to hate but have come to enjoy quite a bit. It's infectious and sweet-her vocals are at their best in that song. Beyond that, there isn't anything quite as enjoyable-it's true that "Everything My Heart Desires" and "Saturate Me" are some of Mandy's very best album cuts, but including a few more hits would have made this collection far more worthwhile (the excellent "In My Pocket" and her other big hit "Crush" are both absent as well). The disc functions fairly well as an album but fails miserably as a hits collection or even a collection of Mandy's best work. It is essentially a final, desperate squeeze on the cash cow and an excuse for the major-hardcore fans to buy another CD of hers (but then again, if you already have all of her albums, you won't be getting anything new beyond the cover picture). They should have at least included some of her later work (her cover of "God Only Knows" would have given this compilation instant appeal....I have yet to find that song anywhere), or at least another one of her singles. But as it is, it's a mere afterthought of Mandy's singing career, a half-assed cobbling of gooey, cotton-candy pop. Unless the only songs of hers you like are "Candy" and "I Wanna Be With You," spring on the extra eight bucks and just get the Best Of Mandy Moore, which includes all of her singles and all of her videos.

It's kind of sad that SONY Entertainment is selling music that's been sold a couple of times already in the U.S. Pretty much so that they can receive more money. They didn't even promote this collection; nor did they for the "Best Of" release last year. However, there are several awesome Moore singles/tracks on here &, once more, it's easy to see her growth from a teen bubblegum-pop queen to a more mature & classy singer.Best Tracks (In My Opinion):"Candy""Everything My Heart Desires""I Wanna Be With You""Saturate Me""Yo-Yo""Mona Lisas And Mad Hatters"
