Contents

The World from the Side of the Moon spawned two hit singles "Home" and "Gone, Gone, Gone", both singles charted the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and hit number-one on the Adult Contemporary chart for more than three weeks. [5] [6] Both "Home" and "Gone, Gone, Gone" also received certifications from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA); "Home" received quadruple-platinum certification, [7] while "Gone, Gone, Gone" received Platinum. [8]

Background

Phillip Phillips began writing songs with collaborators and recording rough tracks for the album before the American Idol Tour began in July 2012. [9] He collaborated with David Ryan Harris on "Tell Me a Story", which he described as his favorite song in the album and the one he is most proud of. [10] [11] Other songwriters he collaborated with include Greg Holden and Drew Pearson who wrote his coronation song "Home". After the success of this song, Phillips indicated that the album would have a couple of songs similar to "Home". [12] He wrote with his brother-in-law Benjamin Neil "Drive Me", a song he had originally wanted to be his coronation song. [13] His girlfriend Hanna Blackwell also contributed lines to the lyrics on the bonus track "Take Me Away". All but three of the tracks on the main album were written or co-written by him, with four of the songs he wrote himself. [14] He cowrote "Get Up Get Down" with the producer Greg Wattenberg and Derek Fuhrmann in Wattenberg's New York studio. Songs selected by 19 were presented to him but some were discarded, amongst those he chose were "Gone, Gone, Gone". [15]

The album title, The World from the Side of the Moon, came from the lyrics of the first song on the album, "Man on the Moon." Phillips described it as the experience of watching himself in a DVD of the whole Idol season someone gave him, "so I was kind of watching myself from a whole different world that no one else really knows. It's interesting to see how it happened and so fast. That's how I picked the title: I felt like I watched myself grow and this whole album is representing where I am." [10]

The producer of the album was Gregg Wattenberg. The album was recorded in three weeks at the Quad Studios in New York after the Idol tour had finished. [10] [16] He had originally planned to release his album early 2013, [17] but later the date of the album release was rescheduled to November 19, 2012. [18]

On November 19, 2013, an expanded version of his "Moon" album was released. It included three live recordings, including "Gone, Gone, Gone," "Where We Came From," and "Man on the Moon." Those three tracks were also on "Phillip Phillips Live EP," also out on November 19. [19]

The World from the Side of the Moon has received mixed to positive reviews from professional music critics, and has an overall Metacritic rating of 61 indicating "generally favorable reviews". [20] [29] Most critics noted influences from Dave Matthews Band and Mumford & Sons in the album. Glenn Gamboa of Newsday opined that Phillips "offers up Dave Matthews Band's jamming-blues-rock hybrid to a younger generation in "Get Up Get Down," while also giving the indie-leaning folk of current darlings Mumford & Sons an attractive American face in "Gone Gone Gone."" [26] Gary Graff of Billboard noted that Phillips' song "Home", "aligned him with the Mumford & Sons nu-folk movement," but considered "the album actually plays out more like the year's second-best Dave Matthews Band release." [22] Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic thought the similarities to Dave Matthews Band to be "near farcical," [2] and the similarities to other bands led Jody Rosen of Rolling Stone to wonder if Phillips is redundant "when we've already got Dave Matthews and Jason Mraz, why do we need another earnestly raspy balladeer with ace acoustic-guitar skills?" Rosen nevertheless thought that "he's far better in originals like "Gone, Gone, Gone" and his hit "Home," which build from folksy picking to hooting power-ballad choruses, a pleasantly popified take on Arcade Fire." [27]

Emily Tan of Idolator was enthusiastic and thought that the album "showcases Phillips’ potential as a musician, singer and songwriter who can rise above the generic pop that these reality competitions sometimes spawn." [25] Katie Hasty of HitFix considered that "this collection is shot after shot at the Next Big Single," and added that "some melodies will achieve exactly the radio single sound Universal undoubtedly hoped Phillips could achieve." [24] Kristin Coachman of Blogcritics.org commented that Phillips in the album "reflects every bit of the gravelly voiced pop rock artist, with jazz leanings that he portrayed during his Idol run." [30] Grady Smith of Entertainment Weekly viewed the songs written by Phillips alone to be "more circuitous, brooding" and "less compelling" than those he co-wrote with other songwriters, but nevertheless concluded that the album is "the most relevant debut album the Idol machine has cranked out in years." [23]

Chart performance

The album debuted at No. 4 in the Billboard 200 with sales of 169,000 copies, [31] and it stayed for seven weeks in the top 10 on The Billboard 200. [32] It also debuted at No. 1 in the Rock Albums and No. 2 in the Digital Albums charts. [33] It was certified Gold by the RIAA on January 9, 2013, and Platinum on August 21, 2013. [4] The album has sold 1,033,000 copies as of November, 2013. [34] It was on the Billboard Top 200 album chart for 61 weeks. That puts in #2 of all the debut albums by American Idol winners. [35]

In Canada, the album reached No. 9 in its album chart on its debut. [33] The album was certified gold in Canada on January 17, 2013. [36]

Singles

Phillip Phillips' coronation song "Home", which was released in May 2012 straight after the finale of American Idol, was included in his album. The song was still rising in the radio chart before the album was released, therefore no other single was released in advance of the album release. Instead, "Where We Came From" was released for promotional purpose on November 6, 2012, before the album debut, and it also served as a free download on the album's pre-order. [37]

In December 2012, Phillips revealed that "Gone Gone Gone" would be the second single. [38] The song was released to AAA and HAC radio on February 11, 2013, [39] and U.S. Mainstream Top 40 radio on May 28, 2013. [40]

"Where We Came From" was the third single from the album. [3] [19] It was released to radio on July 29, 2013, and debuted on the AAA chart in August 2013. [41] The music video was filmed in August 2013 by director Cameron Buddy. [42]

Kelly Brianne, known professionally as Kelly Clarkson, is an American singer, songwriter, and television personality. She rose to fame after winning the first season of American Idol in 2002, which earned her a record deal with RCA Records. Her debut single, "A Moment Like This", topped the US Billboard Hot 100, and became the country's best-selling single of 2002. It was included on her debut studio album, Thankful (2003), which entered the Billboard 200 at number one, and also yielded the top-10 single "Miss Independent". Trying to reinvent her image, Clarkson parted ways with Idol management and shifted to pop rock for her second studio album, Breakaway (2004). Supported by four US top-ten singles – the title track, "Since U Been Gone", "Behind These Hazel Eyes", and "Because of You" – Breakaway sold over 12 million copies worldwide and won two Grammy Awards.

<i>Breakaway</i> (Kelly Clarkson album) 2004 studio album by Kelly Clarkson

Breakaway is the second studio album by American pop singer Kelly Clarkson, released on November 30, 2004, by RCA Records. The album is the follow-up to her successful debut album, Thankful (2003). Breakaway sees Clarkson collaborating with various producers and songwriters for the first time, primarily Dr. Luke, Max Martin, John Shanks, Kara DioGuardi, Ben Moody, and David Hodges; the latter two are former members of American rock band Evanescence. Despite the established commercial success of Thankful, music critics still continued to typecast Clarkson as an American Idol winner and were also critical of her attempts of establishing a commercial appeal on her own. Wanting to stray from those, she was convinced by Davis to work with Dr. Luke and Martin in Stockholm, and with Moody and Hodges in Los Angeles, in pursuit of a pop rock direction. This also led her to part ways with her manager Simon Fuller and hire the management services of Jeff Kwatinetz before the album's release. Breakaway is primarily a pop rock record with elements of rock and soul music, marking a departure from the R&B-oriented sound of Thankful; its lyrics explore themes of heartbreak, love, and escapism.
