So, Hilary Duff is back in the music game. It's been seven years, which means she is seven years older, now 26. Her new music says otherwise, though.
I loved Hilary Duff. I grew up in love with her Disney Channel show Lizzie McGuire, so I also listened to her music, especially that from her 2003 album, Metamorphosis. But, I feel your music should grow with you. We see it all the time with artists. Miley Cyrus, for example, has matured her sound so much. Her life changed and so did what she produced in the studio.
Unfortunately with Hilary, her music still sounds like she's seventeen. I think her comeback single "Chasing the Sun" was missing what we all expected. When you go for comeback, you need to do something bigger and better than you ever did before - that's how your followers come back.
"Chasing the Sun" is basically that song you skip over on every album.
"All About You," however, was just released today (fourteen days after "Chasing the Sun") and is better. I think this one should have been released as the "comeback."
My only issue, though, is that the lyrics are indeed good, but I don't want to hear them from a 26-year-old mother. While this matter would not prevent me from purchasing the single, I just think it's kind of an inappropriate song for her to sing.
I think it's pretty good song, though. Have a listen.
