Rolling Stone (p.66) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "[She] writes shambling pop songs, rooted in ska and rap, with cheeky rhymes....Lily Allen's an original."
Spin (p.82) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "ALL RIGHT, STILL is all about the stories behind the stories..."
Entertainment Weekly (p.130) - Ranked #8 in Entertainment Weekly's "Top 10 Records Of 2006" -- "[A] collection of irresistible pop songs imbued with both smarts and street cred."
Q (p.118) - Ranked #57 in Q Magazine's "100 Greatest Albums of 2006."

Personnel include: Mark Nicholls, Paul Farr (guitar); Michael Rose (saxophone); Eddie Thornton (trumpet); Trevor Edwards (trombone); John Ellis (keyboards); Clive Hunte, John Waddington (bass instrument); Jonny Wimbolt-Lewis, Paul Powell (drums).

With her much-buzzed-about debut album, ALL RIGHT, STILL, singer Lily Allen, the daughter of veteran British comedian Keith Allen, presents a bright, buoyant collection of pop songs that are smartly counterbalanced by her often-biting lyrical edge. On the breezy, immediately catchy "Smile," the sultry-voiced Allen takes pleasure in the woes of a former beau, while the bleakly upbeat urban ode "LDN" recalls an unlikely fusion of the Streets and Norah Jones. Though part of Allen's charm is in her day-in-the-life, U.K.-specific observations (see the punchy "Knock 'Em Out"), ALL RIGHT, STILL has enough sass, verve, and melody to appeal to a wide international audience.
