So, without further ado, click on Kristen's vlog, below. Enjoy the 30 second song snippets and judge for yourself. Turn up your wolfer!

In the interest of fairness, because Kristen is a bit biased in her Lamb-Luv, the opinion of the Resident Teenager was requested. In traditional Resident Teenager short-and-to-the-point speak, here are the results:

1. Music Again = No.

2. For Your Entertainment = Eh. Ok.

3. Whataya Want From Me = YES.

4. Strut = OK.

5. Soaked = Eh. No.

6. Sure Fire Winners = No.

7. Loaded Smile = Nope.

8. If I Had You = Yep.

9. Pick U Up = Yes.

10. Fever = Nah.

11. Sleepwalker = No.

12. Aftermath = OK.

13. Broken Open = OK.

14. Time For Miracles No.

So, based on Kristen's calculations, Resident Teenager liked 3 of the songs, was okay with 4 of them, and disliked 7 of them. Giving the album a 2.5 out of 5. Hmmm. Kristen says, "No soup for you, Resident Teenager!"
