Bouncing back from a thwarted attempt to crossover to the U.S. via the American edition of The X-Factor -- she may have been a two-time winning judge in the U.K., but never made it to the air in the U.S. -- Cheryl Cole decides to shoehorn every pop trend of 2012 into her third album, A Million Lights. Unconcerned with introspection -- prior to the summer release of A Million Lights, she told all journalists to not ask her about the album's lyrics as she didn't write a word -- Cheryl (as she's billed on the art work; she's so famous in the U.K. she can abandon her last name) is very concerned indeed about maintaining her celebrity, so she tries on every fashionable sound, dabbling in dubstep, drafting will.i.am to give her some Black Eyed Peas magic, riding Rihanna's steely, defiant rhythms, bringing Calvin Harris aboard to construct lead single "Call My Name," adopting a bit of a Natasha Bedingfield hangover on the opener "Under the Sun," copping Lana Del Rey's tragic romantic balladry on the title track, then hiring the former Lizzy Grant herself to write "Ghetto Baby." Cheryl doesn't stamp these sounds with her own personality; she merely tries the personas on for size, not so much to see if they fit, but rather to see which ones will allow her entry into the charts. As not one cut crackles with personality -- they all rely on anonymous studio craft; any competent singer could sing lead and perhaps score a hit -- success is entirely dependent on which way the wave breaks, whether her timing clicks or not. Even if A Million Lights winds up not generating a big single, there is no denying that it captures much of the style and sound of 2012; it's a pop scrapbook, perhaps one that will be more interesting in the future than it is in the present. --- Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

Coming from a member of one of the most forward-looking pop acts of the 21st century, Messy Little Raindrops feels curiously dated. It's one thing for Cheryl Cole to honour fashion's ludicrous obsession with the bad-taste 1980s on the sleeve, but several songs might as well have been recorded in that decade, too. Which isn't to say that Raindrops, The Flood or Hummingbird sound retro-hip; instead they are musically perfunctory, their lacklustre quality exacerbated by Cole's weakness as a balladeer and her (understandable) difficulty injecting feeling into a love song. Still, in opening tracks Promise This and Yeah Yeah she has a couple of fantastic, indelible hits. And Cole is on surer ground addressing cheating men, although it's hard to know what satisfaction she finds in the vapid lyrics to Happy Tears: "I cut off my hair and I painted my toes, I sold all the diamonds and burnt all your clothes."

Uznawana za jedną z najpiękniejszych kobiet świata piosenkarka Cheryl Cole (27 l.) wydała właśnie drugi solowy album "Messy Little Raindrops".

Wydawnictwo "Messy Little Raindrops" powstało w niespełna pół roku. Nagrywając materiał Cole sięgnęła po pomoc amerykańskich muzyków - m.in. Will.I.Am-a z Black Eyed Peas i Steve Kipner. Cheryl wspomógł także były współpracownik Rihanny, J.R. Rotem. Pierwszym wielkim przebojem z albumu stało się nagranie "Promise This", które dotarło do czołówek list przebojów w Anglii, Szkocji i Irlandii.>
