Stylistically, Moore's music works the time- and chart-tested vein of fellow blonde-haired pop sensations Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. Throughout, Moore makes palpable the giddy excitement of love affairs inchoate and the world-damning pain attending the most cataclysmic breakups.Though it's difficult to pinpoint SO REAL's crowning achievement, there are a handful of tracks for which non-recognition would be a pity. The ballads "Walk Me Home" (which bears a reassuringly Michael W. Smith-like Christian overtone) and "Quit Breaking My Heart" are certain to make dewy-eyed even the most Spartan of souls. The pain conveyed by the later is so great that Moore is driven to reprise the track to close out the collection. The hard-rocking "Candy" is another standout effort, one that Moore has claimed was influenced by Natalie Imbruglia, whom the young singer cites as an influence.
