Efter tre skiver er den gamle Girls Aloud-sanger Cheryl Cole efterhånden ved at komme op i sværvægtsklassen blandt britiske stjernesangerinder. Det kan høres på den seneste, hvor det ikke er lyrisk dybde, man skal komme efter, snarere en gennemført professionel, musikalsk implementering af de øjeblikkelige pop-trends i 2012. Det kan Cheryl takke en hær af stjerner for, som er en blockbuster fra Hollywood værdig: fra tekstforfattere som Lana del Rey og Taio Cruz til producer Calvin Harris og gæstevokalist Wretch 32. Og så er Cheryl i øvrigt stadig ikke kommet sig over skilsmissen fra fodboldspilleren Ashley Cole. Tjek bare "Screw you".

"She recently announced there's no point journalists asking about how the album's lyrics relate to her private life because she didn't write any of them, and indeed doesn't actually know what some of its songs are about. It's both appealingly honest and a little disingenuous: you get the first lyric that she must realise plays on her image as a publically wronged woman about 40 seconds into the album, and the last about 10 seconds before it ends. What comes in between is sometimes interesting, often generic, with a few decent songs among the will-this-do numbers".

"As not one cut crackles with personality -- they all rely on anonymous studio craft; any competent singer could sing lead and perhaps score a hit -- success is entirely dependent on which way the wave breaks, whether her timing clicks or not. Even if A Million Lights winds up not generating a big single, there is no denying that it captures much of the style and sound of 2012; it's a pop scrapbook, perhaps one that will be more interesting in the future than it is in the present".
