简介: My Cassette Player is the debut album of German singer Lena Meyer-Landrut. It was released under her stagename Lena on 7 May 2010. The album includes Meyer-Landrut's number-one single "Satellite", as well as her songs "Love Me" and "Bee", which had been released previously on 13 March 2010. It also features cover versions of "My Same" by Adele and "Mr. Curiosity" by Jason Mraz, both of which had been performed by Meyer-Landrut during Unser Star für Oslo (Our Star for Oslo), the German national pre-selection programme for the Eurovision Song Contest 2010, as well as a cover version of "Not Following", an unreleased song by English singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding. All of the other songs were written or co-written by Stefan Raab and Meyer-Landrut herself.
Initial reviews of the album were mixed. While Stuttgarter Nachrichten criticised the overly distinct influence of producer Stefan Raab, Neue Presse deemed it a "charming debut" and Hannoversche Allgemeine called it "somewhat banal" but still a "good pop album", characterising "Bee" as a "cheerful hymn to independence" and "Satellite" as "still sounding astonishingly fresh, even after its massive airplay".
