Nora and Nathan discuss this album, which she released when she was just 15 years old (1:00). They talk of hits like "Seven Things" and "Breakout" (28:48), her power ballad about global warming called "Wake Up America" (40:46), and which songs best telegraphed where her career was heading (1:01:45).

Hosts: Nora Princiotti and Nathan Hubbard
