A>K KAJL 764-3486 Just what the world needs, two more teens trying to sing. Oh, wait, these girls are different because they are singing together. Note to record label executives: Please do not think that Britney and Christina should try to imitate M2M. It just won’t work, and neither does this album. The group M2M gets its name from its two members, Marit and Marion (Ooh, w hat a clever name). M2M’s CD consists of a bunch of wannabe bubble-gum pop. hut does not even qualify for that genre. Ever heard Jennifer Love Hewitt try to sing? Don’t ask how this reviewer came to hear it, but these two girls sound dismayingly close to Hewitt on her last album. The album starts with a good song with a melody that almost sounds like half a dozen other popular songs. However, by the fourth song, listeners will wish that the "vocal talents” fea tured on this album had range — any range at all. Every single note and word sound identical as the two vocalists lay on the sugary sweetness. By the fifth song, it is obvious that these two girls have very little real musical talent and just landed a record deal because they were young and did not sound like a wailing eat. There was a time in the music in dustry when only the best and the brightest landed recording contracts. Sadly, it now seems like anyone w ith a voice better than the sound of nails scratching dow n a blackboard can get a deal. It is simply a waste of good plastic to release a CD like this to the public. (Grade: D) music will remember The Hi only major hit as the bitters.^ melody "26 Cents.” Then there were a couplt easily forgettable tunes.
