# "Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)"# "I Live for the Day"


A Little More Personal (Raw) is the second album by American singer and actress Lindsay Lohan, released in the United States on December 6 2005 with Casablanca Records (see 2005 in music). Lohan co-wrote seven of the twelve tracks on the album, which debuted at number twenty on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart with nearly 82,000 copies sold in its first week, according to Nielsen SoundScan industry figures. The album fell out of the top forty in its second week and has been far less commercially successful than Lohan's debut album, Speak (2004). Still, A Little More Personal (Raw) was certified Gold by the RIAA for shipping 500,000 copies.[1]

"Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)" was released as the album's first single, and radio and video promotion for it began in late October 2005. Though three singles had been released from her debut album Speak (2004), "Confessions" became her first to make an appearance on the main U.S. singles chart, the Billboard Hot 100. It debuted at number sixty-six after being released as a digital download on iTunes on November 8 2005, and peaked at fifty-seven. Its video, a favorite on MTV's Total Request Live, depicts scenes from Lohan's childhood touching on her father's drunk driving and family abuse. Lohan herself directed the video, and the younger Lohan was played by Aliana Lohan, her younger sister.

The album cover art features red lettering on Lohan's back representing the Chinese character 生 (Pinyin: shèng; Cantonese: Säng), which denotes "raw"; there are several other meanings depending on context, including "living" and "giving birth".[2] The track Black Hole was sent to Kelly Clarkson to record on her third album, My December but Clarkson declined.
