Warning: Listening to these annoying pop albums may leave your brain cells fried to the extent where you are as mentally impaired as Johnny Rezeznik. Album Reviews is where I review the albums that come with the other wise crappy films/tv series. The albums don't tend to have any similarities between the movies. Oh yeah, they both suck!

1. Power Of One - Donna Summer
A nice ballad. A little too moody and depressing for the movie though. Probably the only reason this song was chosen was because of the title happening to also be the subtitle to the movie just as "Catch Me If You Can" was chosen for the first album. Not a song a stupid little kid would be interested in after watching the movie and definitely a little heavy for a movie that is rather upbeat.

2. Dreams - Alysha Antonino
Okay, "Alysha" is a girl's name, right? Why is the whole song hogged by some Lil Bow Wow wannabe? Obviously there is two people singing here, so why would you get your back up singer to dominate the entire song? The only reason I could see is that this person doesn't have any talent. Unless that really is her and she just sounds like a guy. In this case I would wonder how the hell she got a record deal in the first place. Or of course there is the third possibility that this guy just has a girl's name. Bad song by a woman that sounds like a man.

3. They Don't Understand - Dream Street
Holy crap, this song is awful. It's about how kids who like Pokemon are misunderstood by their parents who "will never understand Pokemon." Now if I was a Pokemon fan, I would be embarrassed by this song. This just makes Pokemon fans seem like a bunch of goofy 6 year olds. These jerks bitch about how their parents don't understand Pokemon, but don't get off their lazy asses and even begin to try to get them to understand(even admitting in the song that they didn't "know where to begin"). So how do you expect your parents to "understand Pokemon" if you're not willing to do anything about it you stupid cry babies?

4. Wonderland - Angela Via
Someone trying too hard to be Mariah Carey. Another crappy pop song that is typical of a Pokemon album. Another thing Pokemon albums are know for is insinuating non existent romantic relationships. Plenty of that is implied here. As for trying to be a Mariah Carey impersonater, I would just tell Miss Via to not quit her day job.

5. With All Your Heart - plus ONE
Cliched Boy Band song. Atleast this Christian Boy Band is more talented than N Sync(though it would be heart to be anymore talentless). Hey, all members of their group sing! That's a plus(no pun intended). This song is about believing in yourself. Something Ash isn't too familar with. They also managed to sneak in a "catch them all" in there. Subliminal messaging maybe? I wouldn't put it past any of these merchandising whores.

6. The Extra Mile - Laura Pausini
Another depressing ballad. Whitney Houston this is not. Another romantic relationship alluded to. Which one they are alluding to is anyone's guess. Ash/Pikachu, Ash/Misty, Ash/his mom, pick your poison. Another song that doesn't have anything to do with the movie and it doesn't even fit the mood of it either.

7. Flying Without Wings - Westlife
Crappy cover song by a group that is most known for their appearances on the Disney Channel. Come on, even Ruben Studdard can sing a better version of this song. Whoever's hogging the vocals in this song is seriously trying too hard. This guy should stick to teeny bopper songs and get away from the serious stuff. Another depressing ballad.

8. Pokemon World - Youngstown/Nobody's Angel
More boy band trash. Your career must really suck when you have to sing about Pokemon to get noticed. Some weird mix of hip hop and pop. They even mispronouce "Pokemon" in this piece of garbage. Oh yeah, all their bitching about Pokemon really sounds sincere after that. Very repitive and annoying. Er...I'm getting chills this song's so crappy. Yuck.

9. Blah, Blah, Blah - Deovtion 2 Music
Much like "They Just Don't Understand," this is another track that would make you embarrassed to like Pokemon. It's about an obsessed Pokemon fan that has no respect for his teachers or parents and neglects doing important stuff like house/school work in in favor of wasting time playing Pokemon games. Unfortunately the song does nothing but encourage this kind of behavior. Definitely sends the wrong message to kids. Just another shameless attmept at trying to get kids to waste their time with Pokemon as much as possible in order to maxiumize profits.

10. Polkamon - "Weird Al" Yankovic
I'm sorry, but when I listen to a Weird Al song, I expect atleast an attempt at comedy. This song wasn't funny at all. Al just names random Pokemon in his usual polka style. This is the biggest artist on the whole album and all you give him is a song like this? What were they thinking? Much like M2M on the last album, this was suppose to be the album's premiere song. No offense to Weird Al fans, but if you're looking for Weird Al to give you a big song to get your album to stick out, you're looking at the wrong place.

11. The Chosen One - The B-52's
The beginning of this song kinda sounds like an old Nintendo game. Kinda appropriate. This song was just put on here cause of it's title. I could barely understand the lyrics. I don't think that's too important to the kiddies listening to this though. The song is very weird and it's just a bunch of rambling about crazy stuff(if you can even understand it at all). The B-52's are still making music after all these years for this? What a waste.

12. One Heart - O-Town
More depression. This is also another song picked because of it's title and how it relates to the movie's title, nothing more. This is the ultimate Pokemon movie album cliche song. Boy band, depressing, talks about love, and is only on the album cause it's title just so happens to resemble the movie's title. All of which aren't good things. These guys need to go back to the crummy star seacrh rip off show where they came from.

13. One - Denisse Lara
The third consecutive song with "One" in the title. This song is actually not too bad. Probably the best track on the album.

14. Comin' To The Rescue - O-Town
Oh no, not these losers again. Apparently they didn't take my advice. Er, isn't one track enough? Just more boy band love song trash. If we were to apply this to the movie, I would guess it's about "comin' to the rescue" as the title suggest, but if you listen to the lyrics, it's really just the same boy band flirting with teeny boppers song. Enough of the boy bands already!

The next two tracks are instrumentals, so I won't bother reviewing them.

Final note:
Better than the first album, but still pretty bad. The boy bands have to go as well as the love songs. They pretty much sing about boyfriend/girlfriend relationships that aren't even in the movie. Atleast there was an effort to actually put some songs on there that were Pokemon related. Unfortunately these songs sucked. And what's with all the depressing ballads?
