If this saucy quintet sounds familiar, you might remember them as the impish female background singers behind Aaron Carter's teen pop classic "Oh Aaron" and his oddly titled "Stride (Jump on the Fizzy)."

Named in homage to No Doubt, No Secrets does have a huge one: not only do they have an abundance of talent, but they also have the preternatural sense of ironic self-knowledge that Prince showed in his formative years. Their Prince-like sensibility inflames their songs with a playful outrageousness. In "That's What Girls Do" they demand: "You ask me why I change the color of my hair / You ask me why I need 32 pairs of shoes / You seem to ask me why I got a lot of things / It's just a chick thing / You ought to let it go." These five supremely confident young women have none of the coyness or the unrelenting earnestness usually found in teen pop. Instead, they have a genius for dynamics and off-beat rhythms, and a wicked sense of humor that elevates their songs of love and female empowerment into playful, provocative gems. --Jaan Uhelszki« less

It's No Secret this band is OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZING!

"No Secrets are one of my favorite groups. I have been counting the days until the cd was released and here it is!!! You HAVE to get this cd!! It's amazing! Here's a breakdown of the songs on the album: That's What Girls Do - Time: 3:09 Grade: A
This is No Secret's second single. It was picked up as the theme for the PowerPuff Girls Movie. It can be heard in the movie's commercials. This is a great song and it gets stuck in your head right away. I LOVE this song. It has a great beat and the chorus is awesome. Not too fast, not slow. It's Spectacular. It WILL get stuck in your head though, but that's another great thing about it. On The Floor - Time - 3:02 - Grade: A
I first heard this song on No Secret's VHS: Get To Know Us. I didn't like it at first when I heard it. But now I love it. It's an AWESOME song. The chorus is great. Most likely to be the next single. This song is awesome. It's a really fast song, with a quick and catchy beat. Skin Deep - Time - 3:23 - Grade: A+
This is my favorite song off the album. I'm not into slow songs really, but this song is OFF THE HOOK!! It became my favorite right away even when I just heard the thirty second clip. It's very well written, and the singing talent shows how mature the girls are. Their voices are out of this world at the end when they repeat the chorus 3 times. They get so high with their voices, it's awesome. That's my favorite part of the song. I like in the beginning how they whisper: "SKIN DEEP" Words seriously cannot describe this song, you have to listen to it to believe. Kids In America - Time: 3:06 - Grade: B+
This is the song that got me obsessed with No Secrets. The whole reason I bought the Jimmy Neutron Soundtrack and saw the movie was because of this song. (This is the theme of the Jimmy Neutron Movie) But after listening to it over 200 times it's slowly starting to get old. And I realized that this isn't the only awesome song that No Secrets sing. That's when I slowly started not listening to this song anymore, when I heard all their other songs. But the music and the singing are great in it. That's what got me obsessed in the first place. Kim Wilde originally sang this song. It's Alright - Time - 3:19 - Grade: B-
I first heard this song on No Secrets video. I didn't like it at all. I even disliked it more than "On The Floor" But slowly the song has grown on me. I skip over this song quite a bit but I still listen to it a lot too. It's not a slow song and it's not a fast song, it's sort of caught in the middle. But it's more slow than fast. The singing is pretty good too. I'll Remember You - Time - 4:08 - Grade: B
This is another slow song off the album. It's very well sung. The girls sing amazing in this song. The music is very well done as well. It's very calming. Again, as I said for "Skin Deep" I don't like slow songs very much. But although I skip over this quite a bit I listen to it just the same. I don't like this as much as "Skin Deep" No way, but It' still a very well done song and It deserves to be on the album. It shows people that the No Secret girls do have singing talent.
Here I Am - Time - 3:08 - Grade A
This is another song that was on the No Secrets video fanzine. It's a really fun song to listen to. It can be heard on the ABC MOVIE: MOM'S ON STRIKE in the beginning. And in the movie "Undercover Brother" although, my favorite part isn't the chorus. It's the bridge.
It's a good dance song. But not quite as fast as "On The Floor" it's a song that's not fast, or slow. In the middle. But it's not as slow as "It's Alright" This is a great song. Hot - Time - 3:40 Grade: B+
The best part of this song is the lyrics. The lyrics are out of this world. VERY, VERY, well written. Yeah I skip over this song sometimes too, but I like to listen to it, just because the lyrics are so great. I like how they mention the girls in this song.I Know What I Want - Time - 3:22 - Grade: A
This is the fifth song on the No Secret's video fanzine. I love this song. Angel sings lead. I like the music, and my favorite part is the bridge.
I am glad this song was put on the album. It should have been toward the front more, instead of the back. This song can be heard in the MAG-A-MUSIC magazine edition with Aaron Carter. In the little cd that they give you. It's a fast song, and it will probably be one of their singles. What Are You Waiting For - Time - 2:53 Grade: B
You can hear this song when you ORDER Now That's What I Call music: 10 on T.V. I didn't like the clip that I heard on the That's What Girls Do CD SINGLE, but I actually do like it. You have to give the whole song a chance. The chorus is really catchy and it gets stuck in your head. You can also hear this song when you buy the MCDONALDS cd coming out in October and in the MAG-A-MUSIC magazine CD. No Secrets - Time: 2:57 - Grade: B+
Another song that I love to listen to a lot. The chorus is the best part. A good song to end the whole cd. The lyrics are very well written and I like how they have the song after the girl's name: No Secrets."
Best Cd in Years`

"No Secrets are an awesome group. You have probably heard of them by now. Their first smash hit "Kids In America" was the theme for the Box Office Hit: JImmy Neutron: Boy Genius and their second single: That's What Girls Do is the theme for the popular movie: The Powerpuff girls. My Favorite songs on this album are2)On The Floor. A great dance song. Awesome to listen to when you're in a bad mood or something. I bring this one to all my dances and the people love it.3) Skin Deep. A sort of slow song. My favorite song off the album. The meaning is good and their voices are really good to. I seriously like this song a lot, you won't believe it until you hear it. 7) Here I Am
A Great song to put you in a good mood. If you need a boost of confidince, listen to this one. It's a great karaoke song. It's basically their song that got them their trademark (the pajamas)9) I Know What I Want
A fast song that's telling a guy to hurry up and make the first move on her. It's my second favorite song off the album and i think it should have been toward the front of the album a lot more. 11) No Secrets
A latin type song with a true concept of the song, about how secrets just don't stay secrets for long. And that everybody makes mistakes. I love this song. All in all, GET THIS CD NO MATTER WHAT AGE YOU ARE. I'M EIGHTEEN AND THIS IS MY FAVORITE CD."

"No Secrets are 5 talented girls.... I LOVE the cd!
The first song off the album "That's What Girls Do" is their second single. It's very sugary but very catchy at the same time. The second song "On The Floor" is a great dance song that'll make you click the repeat button. Now we're at the slow "Skin Deep" which is my favorite song off the album. The meaning of this song is great and so is the singing. Now we're at their first single "kids in america" which is also another great dance song, and a great party song. "It's Alright" is the fifth track on the cd and it's a real sugar coated song. I'll Remember You is the slowest song on the album and might be their next single. Here I Am is the reason all of No Secrets fan attend their concerts wearing pajamas. It's a real fun, bouncy song. Hot is a song about friendship that makes you want to smile. The quick and sharp "I know What I want" is a personal favorite of mine while as "What are You Waiting For" is a little bland. Now we end the cd with the latin and RnB like song "No Secrets" which shows how secrets and rumors can get out of hand sometimes. All in all this is an awesome cd and I can't wait for the next one to come out."
A nice group to listen to

"I'm glad I got No secrets' album. They are a sugar n' spice group that everyone can listen to. Here's how I rated the songs:1.That's what girls do- A this song is good. It's a cute girl power song for all girls to listen to in this song. But I don't know who they're saying this to in the song.2.On the floor-B Um, this song is okay. It just doesn't sound like them, because they're style is very different in this song, they're adding a mix of R&B. But still, it's a good dance song!3.Skin deep-A+ This is one of my favorite songs on the album. If your a bubbly pop fan, this song is not all that pop. It's nice and smooth, and it has a great message to it.4.Kids in America-A No secrets put this song on a movie soundtrack. It's a fun song to dance to and its a party song.5.It's alright-B+ This song is ALRIGHT, like its okay. But I'd say it's not better than Skin deep. Cause skin deep has more of a message to it, and this song, a little message. Bubble pop fans would like this song, probably. Still a good song, though. 6.I'll remember you-A+ IS THIS STILL NO SECRETS? I mean, this song is good but, I'd never thought they would sing a song like this. Actually, every singer has to atleast have one ballad as a song. This song is sad, its slow but very good.7.Here I am-A+ This is a song about building self-confidence.It's okay but kind of weird in the beginning, but it has a great message. Now I will never give up, but if I do, I'd listen to this song and think about the message carefully.8.Hot-A This is a good summer song. It's mostly about friendship and fun. It also has a good dance beat to it. I'm not sure if they added a little R&B to it, or not.9.I know what I want-B this has a very good message, but it's just not really my type. I mean, they say they need to know if the man wants to be their man, but they don't have to be in such a rush! Still, the song is pretty good, I'm not criticizing it, not like some people.10.What are you waiting for?-A+ I really love this song. It's fun, not too fast and not too slow, and has a great message.I mostly love to listen to this song.11.no secrets-A at first when I got this CD and saw the title of this song, I thought they were talking about their group. But I was wrong, it was another one of those good message songs. It's about not keeping secrets out of hand. Overall, this CD is worth it. I hope my review helped, and I think one of the members of the group named Angel Faith left the group and is now a solo artist. On the front cover of the CD, you can see that Angel is the one at the very end on the right. She has long blond hair, brown eyes, and a purplish jacket on. I hope the five members of No Secrets (from left to right-Jessica,Erin,Carly,Jade, and Angel) will keep continuing their work. But of course, we know that I just said, there are only 4 members of the group, cause Angel left the group. Please buy this CD!"
