Thanks to a gaggle of loyal MySpace friends, Kate Nash skyrocketed to the top of the British charts just a year after penning her first song, so you might expect her first album to sound a bit cobbled together. In reality, it is a wildly exuberant, refreshingly original set of songs that suffers from only a few lyrical clunkers and less-than-realized melodies. For the most part, it follows mentor Lily Allen's genre-busting lead, wrapping charming tunes like "We Get On" and "Pumpkin Soup" around lopsided beats, simple piano melodies, and blunt kiss-offs that Nash delivers through a laughably thick cockney accent. "Foundations" brings everything together beautifully, spinning a romantic argument into a surprisingly poignant and memorable single that confirms her sudden success as no fluke. --Aidin Vaziri
Album Description
2007 debut album from the UK songstress Kate Nash. Pop music with indie sensibilities and an experimental edge permeate much of this album, and it is topped off with Nash's distinctive estuary vocal stylings. Since the album's release, Nash has been the talk of the town in the UK, where she regularly appears in most of the music magazines from NME to Q. She has quickly risen the ranks from 'darling of the critics' to commercially-successful artist, and deservedly so. Features 12 tracks including the single 'Foundations'. Universal.

 Listen to it all the time. July 27, 2008
Mariella and Nicest Thing are my two favorite songs. I really like this CD. Her lyrics are funny and cute and the tune is hum-worthy. Defiantly worth the buy.
 Interesting Little Angry Girl! July 22, 2008
Kate has that lovely Brit accent that's so 'fetch!' Her angry songs are mixed with the sweetest little hymns like the perfect martini. The baby-girl voice and rowdy profanity is an intoxicating mix when you're mad as hell, but want to be nice and feel better! It's angel versus devil; you have to listen to determine who wins...
Fantastic CD July 20, 2008
Kate Nash has got te be one of the best up and coming singers out of England. Fantastic voice combined with great writing and band. Would highly recommend. She's been bumped to the top of my "hit list". Great stuff.
Vendor was great in getting the product to me as promised. Would also recommend.
 AWFUL! July 14, 2008

I can't believe that this ENTIRE album is so full of songs with nothing to say. Her over the top British accent gets tiresome, her uninspired lyrics may appeal to the average 14 year old who actually believes the way to get over a broken heart is to just drink and pout. I was patient with the first few tracks, but each song got worse than the last one and I finally just gave up.
What a waste of money and time!

The only good song on the cd is the one they play on the radio..a couple songs were just plain bad...very disappointing. I was expecting more.
