"Many people most likely bought the "Lights Out" out of curiosity...to see if Lisa Marie Presley sounds like her daddy, the undisputed King of Rock and Roll. Even so, I think a lot of folks were pleasantly surprised with what they heard. Lisa definitely has her own style, and doesn't try to emulate her father. Unlike other children of celebrities, Lisa doesn't try to capitalize upon her father's legacy or image. This album is her own personal statement, and is her way of opening up and telling the world who she really is. Forget all the tabloid b.s. - Lisa's dark, brooding lyrics examine many facets of her life, often with deep introspection. She reveals her thoughts and feelings on things such as her heritage, her children and even her own self image. Many of the words of her songs are very raw, and are set to really great music. "Lights Out" and "S.O.B." are probably the best cuts on the album. This is one of the best albums I have bought in a very long time. If you purchase this CD, you will not regret it."

Like Father, Like Daughter

"Sometimes in life, we really look at kids that became famous only because of their parents being famous and infamous. It does sometimes gets very unbelieveable. In the case of Lisa Marie Presley, she was one who was always targeted, because of her father, Elvis Presley. Still, she can always now try to set herself on her way with her own sound and feel. Her first single, Lights Out is a hard feel of growing up in Memphis, and singals what she feels is going on with relationships. The song is fantastic, and proves to hear a strong debut from Lisa Marie Presley. I strongly like this song, and I really choose to listen to her music over Jennifer Lopez and Kelly Clarkson, because she doesn't fake it."
