Details Lead Performance: Mandy Moore; Genre: Pop

Moore's squeaky clean 1999 hit ''Candy'' made her a Britney contender. Her latest single, ''In My Pocket,'' attempts a mini Madonna makeover. It's disturbing to hear the 17-year-old moaning ''How much for your love?'' over pumping, Indian influenced Eurodisco. It's even worse when lyrics that dance around naughtiness (''Looking to catch it for a minute, but just to hold it, not be in it'') devolve into nonsense.
