Speak is the debut studio album by Lindsay Lohan, released in the United States by Casablanca Records on December 7, 2004 (see 2004 in music). Although this was Lohan's first album, she had previously recorded tracks for the Freaky Friday soundtrack, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen soundtrack and That's So Raven (soundtrack). The album debuted at number four on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart with sales of 261,762 copies. It later achieved Platinum status.

[edit] Singles

Speak featured the singles "Rumors" and "Over". Both received substantial radio airplay but failed on the U.S. charts. "Rumors" was certified gold by the RIAA due to strong digital downloads,

Third single "First" (also released as a single from the soundtrack to the film Herbie: Fully Loaded in which Lohan starred) was also unsuccessful on US charts, but it became a moderate hit in parts of Europe and Latin America.

"Speak" was to be released as the third single, but then "First' was chosen to help promote Herbie: Fully Loaded; "Speak" was rescheduled as the fourth single. However due to Lindsay's busy schedule, "Speak" was canceled as a single.

[edit] Music Videos

"Rumors"' video reached number one on MTV's Total Request Live several times, staying on the countdown for forty-five days. It was also nominated for an MTV Video Music Award for Best Pop Video.

The video for "Over" remained on the countdown for fifty days, after which it was retired.

The video for "First", which featured the car Herbie, was less popular, only remaining on the countdown for a couple of weeks and peaking at number four.

The videos for all three singles from the album were directed by Jake Nava.
