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.

only major hit as the bitters.^
melody "26 Cents.”
Then there were a couplt
easily forgettable tunes. Wei
ther, daughter and son trio is

sappy as sappy can be.
This album has to be the:
