Fifth Harmony Week: Reflection Review

Due to a broken Laptop 5H week was postponed until this week so lets get this started!!

Reflection is the debut studio album by Fifth Harmony which was recorded throughout 2014 and  then released on February 3, 2015 by Syco Music and Epic Records. The lead single, "Boss", was released on July 7, 2014. The second single, "Sledgehammer" premiered on October 28, 2014. The album debuted at number one on the United States iTunes Charts and and number five on the Billboard 200 with 80,000 units sold.

1. Top Down
Top Down is very female R&B, as is the whole album, but this song has a bit of a old music style to it which made me fall in love with this song.

2. Bo$$
The first single and this song is fierce! This song is perfect to describe women independence and basically telling men, dont 'holla' at me and you've gotta show a woman respect now and again. Naming Michelle Obama in the song, who is a strong, independent woman is just perfect.

3. Sledgehammer
This song was written by the newest female in the music business, Meghan Trainor. This is of course a love song and showing the feelings a woman goes through when she finds a man. This was the second single off the album.

4. Worth It (feat. Kid Ink)


This song shows women confidence and basically showing people these girls are 'Worth It'. I love this song and the beat is perfect and of course it features Kid Ink! This song is the latest song released and is the third single from the album.

5. This Is How We Roll
This, yet again, has a nice beat to it and is very female R&B. Again, this is a female orientated song, showing females they can go out and they 'gotta get out' and they 'can't stay in the house'.

6. Everlasting Love
This is another song obviously wrote about the love of a boy. I love this song and it definitely gets me up and moving in the mornings before school. All the girls showcase their voices in this song, which I love. I love when a band can share vocals evenly and these girls definitely do that.

7. Like Mariah (feat. Tyga)
Again, this is a song wrote about a boy! I do like this song and when I first heard it I may have overplayed it. This song features the 'hot right now' rap artist Tyga.

8. Them Girls Be Like
I first heard this song off Fifth Harmony's 'Better Together' EP and I fell in love with it because it is such a typical girl song. It take about posting the odd selfie on Instagram, asking if our bums look big in something or God knows what else.

9. Reflection
When I first heard this song I presumed they were talking about how perfect their man is, but boy was I wrong. Plot Twist: they are talking about their own reflection. What are they saying about their own reflection? Listen to the song and you'll find out.

10. Suga Mama
We have reached my favourite song of the album!! I don't know why this song is my favourite, it just is. This song is basically about a guy using all you money, yes even boys can be gold diggers! This song was written by new girl on the music scene, Meghan Trainor.

11. We Know
My second favourite song from this album. Its a slower song, but everyone needs some sort of a balladish song on an album right?

Deluxe Edition Songs:
12. Going Nowhere
Again, another one of my most played on this album. I don't know what it is about these girls but as the album goes on I just love them more and more!


13. Body Rock
This is one of the few songs on the album wrote about the love a girl has for a boy. Honestly I haven't listened to this songs as much as others on the album but I do like the song. However, it isn't one of my favourites.

14. Brave, Honest, Beautiful (feat. Meghan Trainor)

This song tells all the girls out there listening to the song that 
You can dance like BeyoncĂ©, 
You can shake like Shakira 
'Cause you're brave, yeah, you're fearless, 
And you're beautiful, you're beautiful. 
So whine like Rihanna, 
Go and pose like Madonna, 
'Cause you're brave, yeah, you're honest 
And you're beautiful, you're beautiful.
