Album songs of Young Foolish Happy - Pixie Lott

Young Foolish Happy is the second studio album by English recording artist Pixie Lott, released on 11 November 2011 by Mercury Records. The album sees Lott working alongside previous collaborators Mads Hauge, Phil Thornalley, Toby Gad, Steve Kipner and Andrew Frampton, in addition to production from Tim Powell, The Matrix and Rusko, among others. It also includes collaborations with artists such as Stevie Wonder and John Legend.

Upon its release, Young Foolish Happy was met with mixed reviews from music critics; while some reviewers found the album solid, others cited it as formulaic and short of originality, and felt it lacks the "charm" of Lott's debut album Turn It Up (2009). The album debuted at number eighteen on the UK Albums Chart with first-week sales of 18,503 copies, failing to match the commercial success of its predecessor. It nevertheless spawned the UK number-one single "All About Tonight" and the top ten singles "What Do You Take Me For?" and "Kiss the Stars".

Lott began work on the album in Los Angeles in January 2011. In April 2011 she told Digital Spy that "there are a couple of really cool collaborations on the album and I've already worked with some big people, but I can't say who they are just in case those tracks don't make the final cut", describing the sound as "still pop stuff, but maybe a little more soulful. That's the kind of thing that I'm into. That influence is stronger on this album." On 17 September 2011 Lott revealed the album title, which is inspired by The Tams' 1968 song "Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy". She stated, "It's a song I grew up listening to, from a young age. I grew up listening to a lot of soul music and I think this album sounds more this kind of way. It's a message that I've always really liked and I think it's important that need to people remember, it's just motivating and inspirational."

The album was initially scheduled for release in the United Kingdom on 7 November 2011, but was eventually pushed back a week to 14 November. To celebrate the launch of the Pixie Collection, London-based women's fashion brand Lipsy offered the first 10,000 customers a voucher to redeem on Lott's official website and obtain the album for £3 off.
