Daughtry : Daughtry: Deluxe Edition (CD/DVD)
 Limited Deluxe Edition includes DVD of the 2008 release of the self titled album by Daughtry. His four time Platinum debut album is now better than ever. The best selling album of 2007, which has spent over 80 weeks on the Billboard Top 200, is now available in a CD/DVD deluxe version with custom super-sized packaging. Features include all of the Daughtry videos, live performances, new recordings and a personal interview with the band - approximately 40 minutes of amazing Daughtry video! This deluxe version will also include a newly recorded track, 'Feels Like The First Time', which is linked to a CNN First Time Voter Campaign airing mid-July through November 2008....Plus the Idol Gives Back acoustic version of the smash hit "What About Now". As a singer, Chris Daughtry projects a certain amount of charisma, going for a yearning, sensitive quality on power ballads like “Feels Like Tonight” and “It’s Not Over”. Considering that most of Daughtry consists of tortured love-gone-bad mid-tempo numbers, he negotiates a balance between seeming ruggedly masculine but also puppy-dog vulnerable. The album does have its moments, such as on “Over You,” which builds from a simple acoustic opening into an addictive chorus fueled by politely rocking electric guitars. He wields his gruff, hair-flailing voice like a spandex-clad star on mammoth arena fare like "There and Back Again" and sleazy near-metal songs such as "What I Want," a rave-up featuring Slash on guitar.
Daughtry gives in to bombast on a series of giant, aching near-ballads, including "Over You" and "Gone," a dark, Nickelback-worthy cut that includes lines like "The day you turned on me is the day I died". Though ostensibly a hard rock album, Daughtry represents a watered-down version of the music’s most potent components.
