  Amazon.com: Breakaway: Music: Kelly Clarkson   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Upon listening to the album 3 or 4 times, I concluded that this is one of the better rock/pop albums I've ever heard; especially by a solo female artist.
With this album, Kelly sort of detached herself from the American Idol label that she's been sporting for the last few years.
Although Breakaway finds her treading similar ground to Avril Lavigne, Clarkson uses the strong voice and alt-rock beats first used in "Low" from Thankful.

  Breakaway (album) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 Kelly Clarkson - Breakaway Review - sputnikmusic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
And it was a song deemed unsuitable for the aformentioned’s Under the Skin album that set her on her way: ‘Breakaway’ was initially intended as a stop-gap single while the new album was being recorded, but its huge success prompted its inclusion on the album and, later, gave the album its title.
The singer co-wrote six of the album’s eleven new cuts (‘Beautiful Disaster’ is a live version of a track from Thankful), the vast majority of her contribution coming in the form of lyrics.
Breakaway may be remembered in years to come as a pop classic, alongside Madonna’s early material perhaps, or it might suffer the fate of Tiffany, Lolly and the like.

 Breakaway (Kelly Clarkson song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
RCA records had already planned for her sophomore album to be released in December, with the first single out in October.
Because of the conflict of 'Breakaway' still climbing up the charts, RCA records decided to hold off of on releasing a single off of her upcoming album and officially made the song 'Breakaway' the first single off of the album.
They then decided to name her album Breakaway, to assure fans that the hit song would be included on the album.

First single and leadoff track "Breakaway" topped the pop charts on arrival, and its rock-friendly thumps, dips, and rolls don't wear out their welcome; they blend, instead, into the firestorm of beats and guitars that is "Since U Been Gone," another shout-it-out rocker.
The album starts of with two rather bland and boring pop songs, which do not give the full extent of Kelly's talent and really should have not been released as a single, but beware the rest of the album is NOT like this at all.
Kelly's voice is outstanding and unlike her first album which I have since listened to and is rather disappointing, this album allows Kelly to be herself - and herself is clearly not a bubble-gum pop princess.

 CBC.ca Arts - 'Fun, bratty' album on the way, says Lavigne
Lavigne said the live performances she did during her last tour helped inspire her to write songs for the new album.
In addition to co-writing the song Breakaway, which became a hit for former American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson, she began taking roles in movies, including in Fast Food Nation, The Flock and Over the Hedge.
Most recently, Lavigne sang at the closing ceremony of the 2006 Winter Olympics, during the portion representing Canada and the upcoming Vancouver 2010 Olympics, and also wrote and recorded the song Keep Holding On for the new children's fantasy film Eragon.

With the title Breakaway, one might assume Kelly Clarkson's new album is an attempt to distance herself from "American Idol," the glorified karaoke contest that launched her career.
Clarkson: Lyrically, the album is like a journal of the past two and a half years, and I'm gonna say there was some down points.
Clarkson: "Breakaway" is a song I did for [the] "Princess Diaries" [sequel] that's out right now, so it [originally] wasn't even an option for like a title or anything, but it so explains and describes all the songs on my album, like each and everyone of them.

So, her second album, "Breakaway", released late in 2004, was a pivotal moment for her, a chance to prove that she was not a one-hit wonder, a chance to prove that she could have a real, vibrant career.
While there may be one too many ballads here, they often are very good and sometimes are excellent, like the light, layered, yearning title tune.
After a bunch of rather blah mainstream pop albums, including a glut of half-baked "AmIdol" projects, this is a nice, low-key relief.

Her debut album Thankful debuted at #1 on Billboards album chart, scanning 300,000 pieces in seven days and knocking hip-hop superstar 50 Cent from the charts top perch.
The albums lead single, "Miss Independent," went straight to #1 on the pop chart, and the video was retired on MTVs TRL for maxing out its airplay potential.
The touchstone is, of course, the closing track, the lilting LIVE cut "Beautiful Disaster" from her first album.

Many compare it to Avril's latest album, Under My Skin, which is a bit obvious because she teamed up with most of the same songwriters (including Avril herself).
Its properly titled "Breakaway" because she's breaking away from her crap that she released on her first album.
The reason why this album is so much better, is because Kelly took her time to get this album properly produced and written.

 Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson : MusicOutfitter   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
In late 2004, the Texas native delivered on the promise of her sophomore record's title, BREAKAWAY, by diving headfirst into alternative-rock-flavored pop of the Avril Lavigne/Michelle Branch variety.
Though there are still a few R&B/Rap-inspired moments here ("Because of You" is a soulful, string-laced ballad in the best Mariah Carey tradition), most of the album has a much harder edge than fans of THANKFUL would likely expect.
In other spots, Clarkson goes the moody chanteuse route, particularly on "Addicted," where she channels the spooky melancholy of Fiona Apple with surprising conviction.

 Music Review: Kelly Clarkson - “Breakaway”
By far the most emotional track on the album is “Because of You,” which describes the unfortunate accident of a friend.
For those who loved her old sound, “Breakaway” may take some getting used to, but it is a musical experience not to be missed.
“Breakaway” is sure to please any musical palette; though it is primarily rock, the album contains a few slower and more bluesy tunes that are universally appealing.

It's a rarity that I can listen to an album for over a year straight and not grow tired of it, but Breakaway has proved to be once such rarity.
When you first listen, Clarkson blows you away with the lead tracks off the album, Breakaway, Since U Been Gone, Behind These Hazel Eyes and Because of You.
However, it's when you get passed these that you get to, in my opinion, her best track, Addicted.
