In This Skin is the third studio album by American recording artist Jessica Simpson. The album was released on August 19, 2003 by Columbia Records. It was reissued on March 2, 2004 with three new songs. Simpson began taking more creative control of her music with the album, both musically and lyrically, co-writing 10 out of 14 tracks on the album, thus moving away from the teen pop styles of her previous two albums, Sweet Kisses (1999) and Irresistible (2001), as well as including elements of Middle Eastern music, dance, acoustic, and pop rock, while also lyrically talking about more mature subject matters. The album was a huge success in North America, reaching number two on the US Billboard 200 and being certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In This Skin went on to become the thirty-fifth best selling album of 2004 and has sold over five million copies worldwide. The album was ranked number 153 on the list of the top-selling albums of the 2000s by Billboard magazine.
Third is the third album by American rock band Big Star. Sessions started at Ardent Studios in September 1974.

It was eventually released in 1978 by PVC Records.
