Album Tour: Selena Gomez - A Year Without Rain


I bought this at Wal-Mart too. 

I'm a BIG Selena Gomez Fan. 'Nuff Said. This album also got me literally hundreds of Replay Cycles on my iPod.

The packaging: The album cover has Selena Gomez in a Pink Rose Garden. The album comes in a neat little cardboard slip case. There is no lyric booklet, but there is a Lyric Poster/ Calendar. 

I won't write a review for this, but I'll give an excerpt of a review from another site.

See the album tour after the Jump! 



This Review is Taken from the Washington Post Blog.




Disney princesses seem to come along every 15 minutes, but few of them charm like Selena Gomez, the serene and adorable star of the Disney Channel's "Wizards of Waverly Place," who resembles a pint-size Snow White ordered out of a Delia's catalog.
"A Year Without Rain," the 18-year-old's second release with her backing band, the Scene, cleaves to a familiar Disney formula: Match the girl of the moment to the pop craze of six months ago. Before she went rogue, Miley Cyrus was a Britney/Avril pop avatar. Demi Lovato went the "authentic" John Mayer singer-songwriter route. On "Rain," Gomez is positioned as a younger, more chaste incarnation of Katy Perry, with the dead-inside electro-pop tracks to prove it.
"Rain" clatters from over-processed dance-pop song to over-produced ballad and back. It's heavy on glitched-out vocals and bubble gum, dance floor workouts, light on melody and memorable hooks. Perry can't save the awkward "Rock God" (which she co-wrote and sings on), but at least it's an improvement over the title track, the sort of exercise.....
