If the 9-year-old in your life hasn't alerted you already, consider this your heads up: Not since Hilary Duff has Disney delivered the masses a tween sensation as hot as the double-life-leading Miss Hannah Montana. More important for speaker-blowing second- to seventh-graders and the parents forced to buy them CDs, though, no small-screen sensation transcends the tube more convincingly. Part party girl and part plain old good girl, Montana--a sweet-voiced, playful performer--never skimps on the pipes. Country fans will chalk that up to our rhyme-named heroine's lineage; 14-year-old Miley Cyrus, who plays Montana, is the daughter of Nashville star Billy Ray Cyrus (who duets on this disc's sentimental, twang-resistant last track). The rest of the world, though, is apt to find itself belting along based on Hannah's unsinkable hooks and frothy Ashlee-meets-Hilary vocals alone: theme song "Best of Both Worlds" bumps around off a Joan Jett-reminiscent springboard; "Who Said" rips a page from the emo diaries; and "Just Like You" ladles on harmonies sweet enough to attach a stick to. Additional tracks like Jesse McCartney's "She's No You" and B5's Earth Wind & Fire redo "Shining Star" are first-rate complements to the proceedings, but make no mistake: this dance-happy hybrid belongs to the reigning pop princess alone. --Tammy La Gorce

 A winner! November 29, 2006

My 8-year-old daughter (and all of her girlfriends, and even some of the boys!) absolutely LOVE Hannah Montana. I bought this for my daughter as a Thanksgiving gift, and it is her favorite cd. She sings along with every song. I enjoy listening to it also! Every song by Hannah Montana is a winner, upbeat and positive, with clean uplifting lyrics perfectly sung to catchy well written pop songs. I am impressed with the talent and professionalism of the young star, Miley Cyrus as Hannah Montana. She has a strong voice and is an excellent live performer (we caught her recent concert with the Cheetah Girls and Hannah's show was hands-down the favorite!), and what a deal - this is not just a cd but a dvd as well! If a 6 to 14 year old does not have this already, you can bet it is on her wish list. Highly recommended!
 Excellent Collection For Youngsters.....And Their Parents! July 24, 2007

Yep, it's hard to believe that a man of thirty-one years is writing a review of the "Hannah Montana" soundtrack but it's true. My daughter, age six, has always enjoyed the TV series that this soundtrack was put out in support of. She naturally wanted to get this disc and did so for her birthday a little over a month ago. Since then, I can't tell you how many times I've been subjected to my daughter singing many of the songs on this album. It is pure bubblegum pop. It's not too offensive nor is it too risque for the younger crowd. It's also easily digestable for parents of children enthralled with Miley Cyrus' portrayal of Montana. Despite being rather fluffy lyric-wise, these songs still manage to be better that pretty much all of today's reigning pop princesses. Cyrus' vocals are much better than the likes of Ashlee Simpson and Avril Lavigne. She also seems like an altogether nicer person than either of them. I've always respected her father, who real fans of country music know spent many, many years trying to make it before hitting with "Achy Breaky Heart." The guy isn't as cheesy as you'd think, and is actually a truer country artist than most of today's mainstream stars like Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney. It appears that he and his wife are taking the right steps to prevent their daughter from turning into a teenage burn-out queen like Britney Spears or so many other teen stars who couldn't handle being on top.
Highlights of the album include the show's theme, "Best Of Both Worlds," "Who Said," and "This Is The Life." A few of the songs are from other artists and other than the Click Five's "Pop Princess," they are a definite step down from the pop quality of Cyrus' tracks.
Overall, I'd have to say that any person who really enjoys pop music will find that this is one of the better albums out there. It also looks as if many of its songs will have a longer shelf life than many other pop songs that are currently out there. Definitely buy this if you have a daughter between the ages of six and twelve. It's great music for them to listen to.
I highly recommend this album.
 Another pathetic Disney attempt March 8, 2007

This is just sad. To many teenyboppers Hannah Montana is "cool". Everyone wants to be a famous pop star just like her. Personally all Hannah Montana is an actress employed by Disney to wear a blond wig, dance around with backup dancers and sing poorly written songs. To me and everyone I know Hannah Montana is a just bad joke.
Another good Disney CD February 20, 2007

Bought this for my daughter and she loves it. She was thrilled when she saw that not only did she get Hannah Montana songs but other "great" (quoting my kid) artists.
She loves it!
Can't stop listening to these tunes... December 7, 2006

This is REALLY strange. I can't remember having an album effect me this way since The Beatles first came out back in the early '60's, where I like ALL of an artist's tunes on a particular album, and I keep playing them over & over, and I dont' get tired of them.
I've seen the TV show, and thought it was kind of fun, especially since Billy Ray Cyrus & his real-life daughter Miley are playing dad & daughter. The tunes on the show seemed to be catchy. I kept humming them over in my head (a sign of a good song!) So I pre-ordered the soundtrack. Well, I can't stop listening to these tunes. I've got the CD in my car and after a month now, I just love these tunes. I guess it's their 'hook' quality. What's weird is that they're geared towards the young crowd, but I'm having a great time listening to them over & over.
I've been a rock guitar player for years, started in 1963. I typically listen to all kinds of music, some music 'does' it for me and most 'doesn't'. My listening preferences are generally songs with intricate guitar work, be it jazz or rock or blues. But, there are songs that just 'click' with me, and 'all' of Miley's tunes are very infectious. Kudos to whoever put this together at Disney. Great job! Thanks for the fun music!
Update: Just wanted to add that I've now had this CD playing since October, and it's now January 2007, and I still love it. I can't wait for Miley's next album! Cheers, Mesa.
