the thing I dislike about this album is it's length: 18 songs, 1 hour and 6 minutes
yeah I can't be kept interested that long for nobody

I've been listening to this album again this week and it really is a solid piece of work.

However, I would drop some filler and have this as an ideal tracklist:

#1. Mr. Know It All
#2. Stronger [What Doesn't Kill You]
#3. Dark Side
#4. I Forgive You
#5. Honestly
#6. You Love Me
#7. Alone
#8. Hello
#9. Let Me Down
#10. Einstein
#11. You Can't Win
#12. The Sun Will Rise ft Kara Dioguardi
BONUS:
#12. Don't You Wanna Stay (with Jason Aldean)
#13. Don't Be A Girl About It

'The Sun Will Rise' is my down-trodden anthem, so under-rated.

I won't be in Belgium any longer so that's why I'm more than ok with Glasgow :P but yes, Belgium does love Kelly *_*

Let's bring some UKmixers to the concert :D

Yeah, the Deluxe Edition is so full of fillers!!! A short version of 13 tracks would be fine... but it's a good album ...

I've just realized for the 10,000 time... that she's so consistent with her albums... none of them have dissappointed me thus far...
She always delivers to me... even "My December" which was negatively affected by the media and her label...

I'd rank them now as:

1. My December
2. Breakaway
3. Stronger
4. All I Ever Wanted
5. Thankful

:)

She really is among my top 5 female artists... <3 <3 <3 <3

so true! I was just thinking about that myself earlier today. apart from Thankful, which I think is pretty clearly her weakest, ranking the other 4 is a tough task! for me, it would probably look like:

1.) Breakaway
2.) Stronger
3.) All I Ever Wanted
4.) My December
5.) Thankful

but it's a really close call between No.'s 1-3, and My December is not far behind. I know that MD is a big fan-favorite, and I really appreciate that Kelly fought to make the record she wanted to, but there's definitely a few tracks on there that I just don't care for (there's some really excellent moments as well, of course, namely "Sober"). I've been really pleased with Stronger, so hopefully Album #6 keeps her consistency going!

As Kelly mentioned in Brazil, "This song isn't a single yet..." I expect that 'The War Is Over' would be released a single in future.
Before that mention, she sang it only one in January, 2012. But she has added this song in every setlist recently since that performance in Brazil.
She has told us certain songs to be her new single. Whether it could be a next single or not, it must be true that she has considered that.
RCA always releases her ballad stuffs in every album(The Trouble With Love Is, Because Of You, Sober, Already Gone). "The War Is Over" is one of those materials from Stronger, and they may decide to make this.

I really LOVE this song and know some people don't enjoy this song but I think it could be better than they thought...

oh no, I don't like this....it's pretty boring

I Forgive You MUST be the 4th single, otherwise this era would finish (too) soon

I agree with theArmy, 'The War Is Over' is pretty boring (apologies!), certainly not in the league of those other ballads.

Let us also remember Kelly had no idea that 'Cry' was the current single when she visited Australia last time and was like "oh, I better perform that tonight, hey?" :lol:

Noooooo!!!!
I don't mind a closing track for this era being a ballad but I want Einstein or You Loved Me!!!!

Then close with Standing In Front Of You 8-)
I'd prefer to close with Breaking Your Own Heart but it's a bit too soppy for radio!

These two are the best possible choices; I would go with 'Let Me Down' though. :wink:
