"...wow, a pop song that actually has meaning! *lol* Don't get me wrong, I listen to pop music 24-7, but I'm the first to admit that half the songs I listen to aren't meant to be taken seriously. But "Everybody Doesn't" not only has a cool beat and great vocals, but a message to it. Amanda says the song is "about not being rushed into anything, not going too fast too soon..." and she helped co-write the song as well. I found this out from the biography on the enhanced portion of the CD. ^_^There are two tracks, "Everybody Doesn't" and an "I-ROC Rhythm Mix Edit." The re-mix is what made the CD lose a star, because the song itself is awesome, but I'm not quite sure what they did to it. ^_^; To its credit, the remix does get better after its opening. The enhanced portion has lyrics, a biography of Amanda (she's from Sweden, if anyone's wondering...), a video and images of her. Between the video and images there's plenty of pictures. The video happens to feature a much better dance remix than the one that is on the track listing, go figure. Also, a recommendation...if you like this song, check out Mikaila and Ashley Ballard too. Mikaila's already got a CD out and Ashley's coming out with one this summer...probably around the same time as Amanda's is. They all have a similar sound (pop/r&b/dance) but individual styles. I wish good luck to all three of them, because they're all quite talented. Okay, bye now...have a great day! ^_^"

"This is a great fast song, aweseme for dancing to or blaring out of your car's speakers. The i-roc remix is hot too though the beginning is a bit funky. One of the other reviews for this cd is wrong though, because this isn't the maxi single...you can tell the difference because the maxi single costs more. Go ahead and take a look at that one too though, because if the remixs are as good as the radio edit is, then that CD must be the bomb! Hope this helps, ciao!"
