Untitled

A Year Without Rain is the second studio album by American band Selena Gomez & the Scene. The album was released on September 17, 2010 via Hollywood Records. The band once again worked with writers and producers from their debut, Kiss & Tell such as Rock Mafia duo Tim James, and Antonina Armato, as well as Fefe Dobson, Toby Gad, and Superspy. New contributions came from Kevin Rudolf, Katy Perry, Jonas Jeberg and RedOne among others. Due to the success of their breakout hit, "Naturally", the album draws mainly from dance-pop, rather than the pop rock sound of Kiss & Tell. While making use of the Auto-Tune effect, the album is also synthpop, and infuses influences of several other genres, including dancehall, techno, and R&B, among others. According to Gomez, most of the songs on the album are dedicated to the fans, while she wanted content with more melodies and empowering lyrics. Lyrical themes include topics of love, freedom, and the joy of living in the moment.

The album has been given mostly positive reviews, with critics noting it as an improvement from the band's debut album. A Year Without Rain debuted in the United States at number four, selling 66,000 copies in its first week.[1] The album has so far spawned two top forty singles in the United States, lead single, "Round & Round" and follow-up "A Year Without Rain". In January 2011, the album was certified Gold by RIAA.[2] As of August, 2011, A Year Without Rain has sold 658,000 copies in the United States.[3]

Background and development

Recording and production

American pop singer Katy Perry (pictured) was one of the many collaborators the band worked with on the album.

In an interview with MTV News in February 2010, when referring to the then-upcoming record, frontwoman Selena Gomez said, "It's kind of different — older — and it's kind of got, like, a reggae sound."[4] Gomez also stated she was unsure of taking on the responsibility of the album's main songwriter, unwanting the added pressure.[4] She also talked about producers for the album, expressing interest to work with "Naturally" producers, Antonina Armato and Tim James, as well as Dr. Luke.[4] She pointed out main goals for the record, which were making sure that she could relate to it, and that the fans could also, stating, "all of those songs are things that I went through, and that's why I put that all together."[4] Later in an interview with Digital Spy, Gomez gave hints about the album, stating that instead of pulling another single from 2009's Kiss & Tell, that she looked forward to moving into the next album, which would be completely different.[5]

Gomez stated that the album was named after the titular single because it was the first song recorded for the album, and she wanted to base the rest of the work on the song.[6] Gomez went into further explanation, stating, "I mean, even down from putting the track listing and numbering it, I wanted to make sure I envisioned [fans] putting it in their car or putting it on their iPod and how I wanted them to listen to the record."[6] According to Gomez, most songs on the album were inspired by the band's dedicated fans, as she stated, "I wish I could give to them, because they mean so much to me."[6] Calling the album "a feel-good record," Gomez said it has a more dance/techno vibe.[6] The frontwoman also said that she wanted something with more "meaning and melody, and more empowering lyrics."[7] About the new techno-leaning, Gomez said that it was inspired by the success of their breakout hit, "Naturally".[7] She explained, "There’s a feeling when I perform that song that I love, so when I was going back in the studio, I had a better understanding of where I wanted to be musically."[7]

In July 2010, Gomez confirmed that an unreleased track co-penned by Katy Perry was given to her, and that Perry also contributed background vocals.[8] She also confirmed the titles of songs "A Year Without Rain" and "Intuition".[8] On August 17, 2010, Gomez revealed the album's track listing.[9] The singer did not confirm any collaborations, whilst at the time it was rumored that Perry would be featured on her co-written "Rock God", and Miley Cyrus would perform alongside Gomez on "Off the Chain".[9] It was also reported that a Demi Lovato duet "The Beginning of the Road" did not make the track listing, however this was unconfirmed and the collaborations proved to be false.[9] A few days later, Lovato confirmed that she did not work on a track with Gomez for the album, but did not rule out a possible Gomez collaboration for her upcoming R&B-influenced album.[10]

Composition

A Year Without Rain features a variety of renowned artists including Kevin Rudolf (left), and Fefe Dobson (right).

The album features a predominant dance-pop-synthpop feel, also drawing from the genres of electropop and teen pop while incorporating influences of eurodance, techno, reggae, dancehall, disco, and R&B.[11][12] On most tracks, Gomez's vocals contain the auto-tune affect.[12] Lyrical content deals with themes of love, freedom, and the joy of living in the moment.[7] Tim Sendra of Allmusic noted while Kiss & Tell was more lighthearted and fun, that this album is "more serious lyrically and musically."[13] Sendra also said where the previous album had a "retro feel" and "plenty of guitars," this work was "totally of the moment," accompanied by auto-tune and guest raps.[13] Album opener and lead single "Round & Round", is an upbeat synth-driven dance-pop song that features a "riding electro groove".[7] Lyrically it sees Gomez singing about how she is growing tired of her relationship, as it keeps going "round and round", and the two aren't getting anywhere. The title track and second single is "A Year Without Rain", an eurodance ballad that follows standard pop structure and is accompanied by a techno backing. The dance ballad has been described as emo-disco and shows a different side of Gomez when compared with the previous track, as she sings about missing her lover, and how a day without him feels like "a year without rain".[11] The album follows with "Rock God", a dance-pop song with influences of R&B and backround vocals by singer/songwriter Katy Perry, who also co-wrote the song, with Gomez singing of giving in to the music.[7] "Off the Chain" is an uptempo pop song that derives from the style of electropop and is similar in composition both musicaly and lyrically to one the band's previous singles, Naturally, as it speaks of hopeful love. The next track is "Summer's Not Hot", wich contains an uptempo eurodance chorus, courtesy of RedOne.[11] "Intuition" is the sixth song on the album, it is a song about letting go and following one's intuition, the song features rapping by Eric Bellinger. The seventh song is "Spotlight", it contains dancehall and R&B influences and references actress Angelina Jolie. According to Mikael Wood of Billboard, the song does not feature a hook.[11] "Ghost of You" is a ballad about a breakup that contains incluences of electronica.[13] "Sick of You" is the ninth song on the album and is more upbeat than it's predecessor. Musically, it is a pop song that derives from the genre of Hi NRG, and lyrically speaks about being tired of one's lover. The final track on the album is Live Like There's No Tomorrow, a power ballad off the soundtrack to the 2011 film Ramona and Beezus, the pop song speaks of living life without regrets and to the fullest extent, as the title suggests.[7]

Release

Singles

The album's lead single, "Round & Round", co-written and produced by Kevin Rudolf of Cash Money and Andrew Bolooki, Jeff Halavacs, was released on June 22, 2010.[14] Fefe Dobson and Andrew Bolooki also receives writing credits. The song received positive reviews from critics who noted its catchiness and expanding of Gomez's demographic.[15][16] The single was met with chart success as well, debuting at number 24 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US. The single also became the bands second dance hit, when it peaked at number 2 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart.[17] The song also had radio success, peaking at number 34 on the Pop Songs chart.[18] Outside of the US, the song was less successful. In Canada, the song only climbed to a peak of 51, despite the succcess of their previous singles in the country.[19] In the United Kingdom, where 'Naturally' performed inside the Top 10, 'Round & Round' failed to match its success, only reaching a peak of 47. In Australia, the single is one of their lowest performing songs there to date, only reaching a peak of 80 on the singles chart. The song's accompanying music video, shot in Budapest, Hungary, features Gomez and the band in a secret spy storyline.[20] The second single, "A Year Without Rain", written by Lindy Robbins and produced by Toby Gad, was released on September 7, 2010.[21] It debuted at thirty-five in the United States, where it peaked.[17] Despite little to no success on US radio and downloads, the single was a dance hit, becoming the bands second single to top the Hot Dance Club Play chart. In Canada, the single debuted at number 37, before quickly climbing to a peak of 30. This makes it the bands second single to reach the Top 40 in Canada, as well as the bands third Top 40 hit in the United States. In Australia, the song debuted and peaked at 78, only two spots higher than their previous single. The song did enjoy success in Belgium, however, reaching a peak of 3 on their singles chart.[22]

Promotion

'A Year Without Rain' was promoted mainly through a series of live televised performances, as well as a tour. Gomez first performed Round & Round live for the first time on America's Got Talent on July 14, 2010.[23] The performance saw Gomez wearing a red dress that spread out at the bottom, while her band performed behind her. Gomez and her band also made an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, on September 22, where they performed A Year Without Rain.[24] On September 23, only six days after the album's release, Gomez and The Scene appeared on Good Morning America, where they performed Round & Round, as well as A Year Without Rain. While promoting in the United Kingdom, Gomez appeared on Daybreak on September 27, 2010,[25] and on Blue Peter on the following day, September 28, 2010.[26] Gomez performed the song on MTV's The Seven on October 1, 2010.[27] On November 16, Gomez performed the title track on Lopez Tonight. The performance saw Gomez wearing a silver, strapless dress with sparkles on it, performing the song as the show closed.[28] On December 1, the song was yet again performed on Live with Regis and Kelly, in which Gomez, wearing a sleeveless sparkly dress, performed the song towards the end of the show. They also performed the song at the 2011 People's Choice Awards on January 5, 2011, and afterwards were awarded the Choice award for Favorite Breakout Artist.[29] Gomez appeared on stage accompanied by low lights and fog.[29] Kara Warner of MTV News commented, "Although it wasn't a stadium-rocking performance à la Lady Gaga or Katy Perry, Gomez powered through her pop song with a sense of earnestness and commitment. She didn't even miss a beat when her earpiece appeared to fall out mid-song."[29]

The band also promoted the album through their second tour, A Year Without Rain Tour. Previously, the band had toured the United States and Europe playing at state fairs and music festivals with a few headlining concerts thrown in. The tour became a major success with critics and spectators alike, selling out many dates within the United States. After the release of their second studio album, the band tour alongside Katy Perry, Bruno Mars and Enrique Iglesias for the KIIS-FM Jingle Ball concert series.[30] Gomez remarked her excitement for the tour and stated that it provided motivation to plan a "big" tour for 2011.[31] During a backstage interview, Gomez remarked that she was conceptualizing the tour as far as stage and production and promised an amazing show with an "epic" stage for 2011.[32] The tour was officially announced on the band's official website in September 2010 to begin in London. Allstar Weekend opened up for Gomez on select dates, while Christina Grimmie, who also had done background vocals on the album, was present for most of the US shows on the tour.

The album received generally mixed reviews. Mikael Wood of Billboard stated while the lyrics contain "standard issue tween-pop topics," the effort was an improvement over 2009's Kiss & Tell, commenting that the production outweighed the lyrical content.[11] Although noting most songs on the album as "over-produced" dance-pop songs ballads and that Gomez spends most of the record trying to "dig herself out" of vocal effects, Allison Stewart of The Washington Post said at its worst, the album was a marked improvement over the "attitude-heavy", Kiss & Tell. Calling Gomez a young version of Katy Perry, Stewart commented, "Disney princesses seem to come along every 15 minutes, but few of them charm like Selena Gomez."[12] Bill Lamb of About.com reviewed the album saying, "Clearly Selena Gomez and the Scene have evolved musically in the short year that has elapsed since their first album Kiss and Tell... This time around they are immersed in a more polished dance-pop style that moves easily from the glossy midtempo title cut to perky uptempo club tunes. If you have dismissed Selena Gomez as merely a cookie cutter Disney pop princess, it is high time to listen to more of her music and [the music] is likely to change your mind. While not deep, A Year Without Rain is a solid, pleasing pop album.[36]

Wairarapa Times-Age said in their review of the album, "A Year Without Rain, Selena Gomez & The Scene's second album, is full of dance floor-friendly synth pop, probably more suited to a slightly older set than her teen-targeted TV show, and with less of a rock edge than fellow Disney Stars Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato." At the end of the review, they listed 'Live Like There's No Tomorrow', and the title track 'A Year Without Rain' as the two highlights from the album.[37] MusicOMH gave the album 3 out of 5 stars, stating "It would be the easiest thing in the world to dismiss A Year Without Rain as a cynical implementation of fan base exploitation; Gomez is, with regards to a certain demographic, a licence to print money. She also, however, boasts an embarrassment of talents, and those talents are more often than not afforded the space to breathe on a solid pop offering."[38] PortraitMagazine also praised the album, commenting "Though Selena does seem intent on holding fast to the dance-pop style, with a bit of techno thrown in here and there for good measure, just like she did on her first album, the tracks she's got here are a definite improvement over her previous effort. She's trying out new things and experimenting a little with her sound. I was actually able to listen to this album all the way through without getting a migraine, which, I'm sorry to say, I couldn't do on her first. Because I think that she is such a talented person, I can't be happier with this album. Yes, there are a few tracks that, now that I've heard them, I don't really care to listen to again, but overall, this is a great album."[39] Allmusic praised the album as well, stating "A Year Without Rain is similar in many ways but also very different in some important ways. Where Kiss was lighthearted and fun, Year is less fun and more serious both lyrically and musically. It feels like someone in her camp decided that it was time to position Gomez as more grown up, time to leave behind the sunny, good-time appeal and get a little more “real.”"[40]

Commercial performance

A Year Without Rain was released on September 17, 2010. It debuted on the US Billboard 200 at number 4, with sales of 66,154,[41] barely beating out Kiss & Tell, which sold barely over 66,000 and debuted at number 9 on the Billboard 200.[42] After three months of release, the album charted at number 144 on the Billboard 200 Year-End Chart for 2010. It fared much better the following year, when it peaked at number 67 on the same chart. On January 19, 2011, the album was certified Gold in the US, for shipments of over 500,000. As of August 2011, 'A Year Without Rain' has sold an estimated 658,000 copies in the US. The album debuted on the Canadian Albums Chart at number 6, 16 spots higher than the bands previous effort, which debuted and peaked at number 22 on the chart. On August 15, 2011, the album was certified Gold in Canada, for shipments of 40,000 copies. The album also peaked at number 6 in Spain, 4 spots lower than that of 'Kiss & Tell'. In Portugal and the Czech Republic, the album climbed to a peak of number 9, making it the bands first album to chart in both countries. In Greece, the album debuted at number 10, an 8 spot drop from that of the bands previous album. The album quickly fell off of the Greek Albums Chart, however, attributed mainly by the low performance of the two singles in the country. In both Belgium and Poland, the album narrowly missed the Top 10, debuting at number 11. Despite the album debuting 11 spots higher than their previous album in Belgium, the album dropped 9 spots in Poland, from number 2 to 11.

In the United Kingdom, the album debuted at number 14, two spots lower than 'Kiss & Tell' did the previous year. The album had the opposite chart performance in Mexico, where it debuted at 16, 4 spots higher than its predecessor. In Germany, the album debuted at number 22, 3 spots lower than the previous album. The poor chart performance in the country is due mainly to the poor performance of both singles. In New Zealand, the album debuted at number 24, three spots lower than 'Kiss & Tell' did the previous year. The album saw a similar sales decline in France, when it debuted at number 26 on the official albums chart, two spots lower than the previous album. In Switzerland, the album debuted at number 37, one spot lower than 'Kiss & Tell'. In Ireland, 'A Year Without Rain' performed very poorly compared to 'Kiss & Tell', debuting at number 40 on the official albums chart. The previous year, 'Kiss & Tell' had debuted and peaked at number 14 on the chart, making a 26 spot difference between the two albums. 'A Year Without Rain' did have success in Australia however, in which 'Kiss & Tell' failed to even chart in. The album debuted and peaked at number 46 on the official albums chart. The performance of the single 'Naturally' from the previous album, which was featured on the international edition of 'A Year Without Rain', played a huge part in album sales, and helped make up for the commercial failure of the two singles from 'A Year Without Rain'. The album also helped Gomez & The Scene develop a fan base in The Netherlands, when 'A Year Without Rain' debuted at number 51 on the official albums chart, becoming their first album to chart in the country.
