Britt Nicole [The Lost Get Found]| Posted August 11, 2009 [MAIN REVIEW]
Fresh off the heels of her critically-acclaimed debut album, “Say It”, which featured the hit songs “You”, “Believe” and “Set The World On Fire”, Britt Nicole is back with her highly anticipated sophomore release, “The Lost Get Found” on August 11th. Britt is one of my favorite new female artists and has an incredible heart for her ministry and an excellent singing voice. If you like Krystal Meyers, Natalie Grant, Francesca Battistelli and pureNRG, then you’ll love Britt Nicole.
The first single and title track from the album is already making waves on Christian radio while on the road and with her youth group in Tennessee, Britt Nicole continues to touch lives of our youth directly through her songs and her message. “The Lost Get Found” in Britt’s words is ”... simply about being who we are called to be as Christians, and through that, seeing the lost get found. I believe that when we become who we are called to be, the lost will come to know God. They will see that God is real, and that His love is greater than any problem, any fear, any sickness.” I have to admit that this is one of my most played songs of the year. It has a catchy upbeat tempo and has a very convicting message. In essence it is like a sequel to Britt’s hit song “Set The World On Fire” which challenges listeners to live in the Holy Spirit with the lyrics “Lord with You there’s nothing I cannot do”. “The Lost Get Found” is a wonderful song of encouragement to live as a light and know that in Christ we can do anything. God will never fail us or forsake us until the work of the Lord is finished. So, as Britt asks in the song: “when you get the chance, are you gonna take it?”
Britt's favorite scripture is 1 Chronicles 28:20 which she says reminds her daily of God's calling on her life.
“How We Roll” keeps the upbeat tempo going in the style of Britt’s hit song “Believe”. “Safe” is next and has that sincere autobiographical style that I’ve come to really love about Britt’s albums in the style of “Set The World On Fire”. It is a great ballad and Britt seems poised to pick up where she left off with “Say It” with a great mix of different styles, heating up and cooling down with every song a great showcase of Britt’s excellent singing voice. “Hanging On” is another highlight and I keep coming back to the great personal nature of the song. “Headphones” for me is the “Holiday” of this album and has a great electronic feel similar to “Love It Away” by Krystal Meyers. “Welcome To The Show” is another dance-style song and has a another electronic beat and will surely be a crowd pleaser at Britt’s concerts.
“Walk On The Water” is another worship anthem where Britt urges believers “don’t be afraid to move, if faith is all it takes, then you can walk on the water too”. “Glow” is another catchy song with a reference to Matthew 5:15-16 that we can “glow, turn the lights down, so that we can show something real, like a city on a hill”. “Like A Star” keeps that theme going shining like a star in the sky equating God, the light of the world, with how we are called by Jesus to also be a light.
The album closes with two excellent ballads, “Feel The Light” and “Have Your Way”. Both songs showcase Britt’s amazing vocal talent and she bookends her excellent album with another personal crying out to God in “Have Your Way” with the lyrics: “stop searching for the answers, but I’ll trust You God and believe that you’ll have Your way”.
CLOSING THOUGHTS
“The Lost Get Found” is a great and catchy album by Britt Nicole. The title track, “Safe”, “Hanging On”, “Headphones”, “Walk On The Water” and “Have Your Way” are my favorite songs on the album. Along with “Life Light Up” by Christy Nockels this is my top album by a female artist and one of my top overall albums of the year. If you liked “Relentless” by Natalie Grant and “My Paper Heart” by Francesca Battistelli, then you’ll love “The Lost Get Found” by Britt Nicole.
Rating: 9.2 out of 10 (92%, A-)

SECOND SET MATURES WINSOME SONGSTRESS| Posted August 18, 2009
Pop fans, watch out! There’s a new girl on the scene and her music is hot, hot, hot! Well, Britt Nicole isn’t exactly a “new” artist, having released her debut Say It to a good amount of critical acclaim two years ago. But with less grungy rock, more slick pop and verses that delve a little further into issues that plague young women in America today, this may be Britt Nicole all grown up.
Don’t get me wrong. The Top 40 beats, hooky refrains and upbeat demeanor still shine prominently throughout, but you can say goodbye to the dark locks and bright-colored hoodies of yesteryear. This go-round, Nicole tames her inner rocker chick and steps up the ladylike charm, personified perfectly by her beguiling stare-down cover shot. Not that the album’s jacket always dictates the music within, but for Nicole, The Lost Get Found is a subtle makeover.
With an affective, radio-ready chorus that urges listeners to reclaim the fire of faith, the title track is a perfect example of Nicole’s hip, meaningful pop. Revealing our unwillingness to step out and make a difference for Christ, the lyrics honestly ask: “When you get the chance, are you gonna take it?/There’s a really big world at your fingertips/And you know you have the chance to change it… Don’t be afraid to stand out/That’s how the lost get found.”
Oscillating between vulnerable tracks that vocalize the struggle to surrender to God and sunny tunes of sheer fun, The Lost Get Found is an attractive set list. And though the lyrics may be a bit vague at times, this is pop music, and excellent pop music at that. —Andrew Greer

The Skinney| Posted August 10, 2009
Coming off of a popular debut project (Say It) and a pair of hit singles (“You” and “Set The World On Fire”) Britt Nicole is back offering her second project, The Lost Get Found which sounds like many of her peers while still containing solid production. The hit single and title track stands out because of the fusion of youthful pop and a refined contemporary style while sharing the message to stand out and share the love of Christ. Full of infectious tunes like the electronically hip-hop influenced “How We Roll” and “Glow” The Lost Get Found also offers a nice mix of emotionally changed ballads like the soft “Have Your Way” and the light pop track “Hanging On.”
Despite the albums present sound, Nicole doesn’t offer anything original except recycled Krystal Meyer’s-esque tunes like the catchy “Welcome to The Show” and the fun “Headphones.” Even though Nicole’s voice is able to turn the attention away from the often cheesy lyrics, when the shallow messages come out they are not flattering to her songwriting skills ("So put ‘em u-u-up/We’re gonna have some f-u-u-n/Turn up the bass let it b-u-u-mp."). While not a perfect album, The Lost Get Found will certainly appeal to those who dig upbeat chick-pop without a desire for really deep lyrics.
Britt deliver's the message of Jesus, with style| Posted August 14, 2009
From Britt Nicole, comes her sophomore project, "The Lost Get Found".
One of this Summer's most anticipated album's. Britt Nicole does not disappoint. With her unique vocal’s, she bring's fresh lyric's.
The album open's with the titled track, "The Lost Get Found". A song about not being afraid to share your faith with other's, not being afraid to step out, and reach those in need of a Savior.
"Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
'Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found."
"Safe" is a song about not being afraid of God's love for you. It's about surrender, surrendering to love, and not being afraid to love.
"Hanging On" is a little up beat. It's about "Hanging On" to every word God speaks, not letting go even when you're at the toughest time in your life.
"Headphones" is an up beat song that makes you just want to dance! The song reflects on tough times. When you feel alone, (as the chorus say's) put on your headphones.
"Anytime you feel alone, put on your headphones
Love, love’s coming through your headphones
Anytime you feel alone, put on your headphones
Love, love’s coming through your headphones."
When you feel that no one is around, God is their.
"Love is here, it came to dry up all your tears
Oh, can you feel it
Gotta believe it, gotta see it
By your side in the middle of the night."
"Welcome to the show" is another up beat song that makes you want to dance. I love the opening music. It start's slow, and then it's all the way up beat. The song reflects losing control of your life, and letting God take over. The chorus say's
"Hands high like a roller coaster
This love is taking over
Take us higher here we go
Oh, oh, oh
Welcome to the show
Gravity we’re defying
‘Cause we were made for flying
We’re about to lose control
Welcome to the show."
"Walk On Water" would have to be one of my absolute favorite song's from this album. It's about not being afraid, and moving in faith. It's also about, completely trusting in God, and knowing that He will be their, when You "Walk On The Water". He will not let You fall.
"So what are you waiting for
What do you have to lose
Your insecurities
They try to hold to you
But you know you’re made for more
So don’t be afraid to move
Your faith is all it takes
And you can walk on the water too."
"Glow" is another up beat song. It's about glowing for God in the darkness.
"Oh, oh
Turn the lights down so we can
Glow, glow
Watch us come alive
We’re gonna
Show you something real
Like a city on a hill
Oh, oh
We’re gonna glow."
"Feel The Light" is a song about surrendering to God, feeling His light. About letting go of all the fear, and shame. It's about stopping from running away, and just letting God inside. This song is another one of my favorite's.
"Have Your Way" is my absolute favorite song, off this entire album. It's about a beautiful surrender. It's about struggling with thing's that are going on in your life, and struggles with God. But in the end, there must be surrender. It's about telling God, to let His will be done, and have His way, with you. It's about stopping, to try and have your OWN way.
"So I’ll stop searching for the answers
I’ll stop praying for an escape
And I’ll trust You God with where I am
And believe that You will have Your way
Just have Your way
Just have Your way."
Musically, lyrically, and of course, vocally, this album is all around good. And one of the best album's of the year. Britt deliver's the message of Jesus in a stylish way. I highly recommend this album You will not be disappointed.
The Lost Get Found Album Review| Posted October 29, 2009
This is a awesome new album from Britt Nicole. I would say it is as awesome as her first album called Say It. I loved every single song on this album as she mixed up the genres she did on her new album like she did on her Say It album. All fans of Britt Nicole should go out and get this album since it is a album you should have in your music collection. Be sure to check it out real soon and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Finally a great pop alternative| Posted August 26, 2009
Haven't heard such a fun Christian pop album since Jaci Velasquez's sucessful "Crystal Clear" in 2000. This album doesn't sound like your typical Nashville Christian made music. Pop music is in high demand! Quite ignored by the Christian music world, with the success that this album is having across the nation the CCM world sees the much need of the return to Pop music. Don't get me wrong I absoutely love rock music, which has dominated the CCM world for the past 7 years, but it is starting to get too boring, mellow and very uncreative. Well that's just my opinion concerning most CCM, and being a huge CCM junkie nerd.
This album is quite extradionary. The best as I previously mentioned, that I've heard among pop vocalist since Crystal Clear. From start to finish this album doesn't drag, and keeps you upbeat, and certaintly not bored. Very creatively put together, electrifying, danceable and energetic. Although an extra ballad song without electric sounds, (piano & guitar instead), would have probably boosted my love torwards it. One disappointment, although more of an advice, the album artwork is very boring. A more colorful happy cheerful cover such as Jaci Velasquez's "Love Out Loud" or someting would have greatly helped. Judging it from the outside it doesn't give any attention, something they should have looked into and invested in. Other than that, it's a "fun, danceable, pop" album and a great alternative to today's mainstream pop scene.
Pop music welcome back to the CCM! We need you to rescue us from the dragging country rockish sounding mellow music that's been dominating it for far too long.
Sophomore album!| Posted August 12, 2009
The Lost Get Found has really catchy beats and very encouraging lyrics! Any person that is looking for a good artist that has both...Britt Nicole is the artist! From the beginning to the end...her lyrics get better and progress from many different genres of sound! "Headphones" is a great song for those out there that are trying to fit in, Britt refers to headphones and tells the kids not to worry about what people think of them. "Headphones" is one of the many favorite songs that i enjoy listening to over and over again! I love how "Like a star" starts out with an electronic sound, it is dreamy and very upbeat. "Have your way" is a great love song to God and how everything doesn't really seem to matter, as long as HE is working everything out in your life. I love every song on Britt's new album "The Lost Get Found", i believe everyone should listen to her music...they won't be disappointed.
HOT!| Posted August 11, 2009
In 2007 Britt Nicole blasted onto the Christian music scene with her critically acclaimed album Say It. Produced by famed producer Tedd T. (Stacie Orrico, Rebecca St. James) the album with its slick pop tunes became one of the hottest selling albums of that year, driven by the hit singles “You” and “Set the World On Fire”.
Now in 2009, Britt comes back her highly anticipated sophomore album, The Lost Get Found. Starting off with the #1 hit title track that has been riding the airwaves like a surfboard, “The Lost Get Found” is a mid-tempo, poised song about finding Christ. “How We Roll” starts the party with its sizzling dance beats and catchy acoustic guitar. “Safe”, co-written by Joy Williams, starts slow, but builds into a rock ballad that lets Britt’s vocals soar beautifully.
“Hanging On” is a pop ballad with a simple, yet lovely melody and smooth beat. Very refreshing and relaxing. One of my two favorites, “Headphones” starts out with a cute piano vamp that turns into a plethora of fizzy programming sound effects and drum beats. The song is unbelievably catchy and has a great message. The perfect summer song. Up there with “Party In the USA” by Miley Cyrus as my top 2 songs of the summer. “Welcome to the Show” starts off with a vintage, classy intro and dives right into the hottest dance song on the album. Britt belts out the chorus, which is perfect for head-banging. Perfect for fans of Lady GaGa or The Veronicas.
“Walk On Water” is a beautiful CCM-esque song that is driven by a very feminine piano melody. “Glow” brings the party back, but fails to bring what “Headphones” and “Welcome to the Show” delivered. Its in no means bad, but it doesn’t have that “umph”. “Like A Star” is my other favorite off the album. The entrancing pop beat and psychedelic sound effects make for the perfect song for a homecoming dance under the stars.
“Feel the Light” and “Have Your Way” end the album beautifully, with strong vocals and great messages. Overall, Britt gets an A+ from me. A lot of people have said she sound too similar to Krystal Meyers’ Make Some Noise, but honestly, I feel that this album is even better than Krystal’s. And everyone knows how much I was obsessed with that album. I think this could be the summer album of 2009. Phenomenal.
Get Found With Britt Nicole| Posted August 10, 2009
One of my friends kept telling me over and over how excited she was about Britt Nicole's newest release. And although I am not much of a fan for the usual pop style, NRT helped to somewhat sway my otherwise, critical opinion. The CD breaks in with its strong base led, guitar jumping tracks and before I knew it, was completely sucked in. 'How we Roll' was definitely my style of in your face bass, but the CD's title The Lost Get Found is probably the best I have Ever heard. Lyrically, this girl has grown. It's worth a listen for the lyrics at least, even if pop isn't your style. I threw in the track listing just for kicks. This CD is purely pop driven, but it's nothing to shun upon. It was far better than I had expected. so if anything, check out the 30 sec clips on iTunes at least.
Walk On Water| Posted August 04, 2009
Alternately i think that "Walk On Water" is the best song on this album. She is amazing releasing better sings and i would love to lean and know whats the story behind Walking On Water.
