In This Skin is the third studio album by American recording artist Jessica Simpson. The album was released on August 19, 2003 by Columbia Records. It was reissued on March 2, 2004 with three new songs. Simpson began taking more creative control of her music with the album, both musically and lyrically, co-writing 10 out of 14 tracks on the album, thus moving away from the teen pop styles of her previous two albums, Sweet Kisses (1999) and Irresistible (2001), as well as including elements of Middle Eastern music, dance, acoustic, and pop rock, while also lyrically talking about more mature subject matters. The album was a huge success in North America, reaching number two on the US Billboard 200 and being certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).[1] Internationally, In This Skin went on to become the thirty-fifth best selling album of 2004.[2] It was ranked number 153 on the list of the top-selling albums of the 2000s by Billboard magazine.[3] As of 2020, In This Skin has sold 7 million copies worldwide.[4]

The album spawned four singles. Two top 20 hits worldwide, "With You" and "Take My Breath Away", which peaked at number fourteen and twenty on the Billboard Hot 100 respectively. "Sweetest Sin" and "Angels", were released as the lead and final single, both of them failed to make an impact on charts.[5] Simpson performed songs from In This Skin on a number of occasions. In middle 2004, she embarked on her second headlining tour, titled Reality Tour, to promote the album.[6][7]

Background

After the release of her 2001 album Irresistible, Simpson stated she wanted to write songs for her third record. In an interview by MTV in October 2002, Lachey, her then husband, revealed that she is back in the studio, working on a new record. He said "she's finally writing her own music, which I've told her she could do forever but she's been shy about stepping out there and doing it. But she's an incredible writer, and she's doing stuff that's really from the heart". About the album's sound, he said "It's a much more organic record and it's more true to herself", he continued saying "There's all live instrumentation and it's very musical as opposed to the pop thing that was happening before for her. I think she finally feels like this is her record and her chance to do exactly what she wants."[8] In March 2003, Simpson revealed that her third album would be called In This Skin.[9]

Production and Development

I was always shy about expressing my own point of view, but now, I think I have things figured out as a woman, and I want to give fans a piece of my heart and soul. Making this record was a great experience — not to mention wonderful therapy.[10]

—Simpson about making the record.

Simpson said in an interview to Billboard, "I wanted to make a romantic, organic album, there are songs that say something that I hope will move or inspire people."[11][12] Billboard compare the record with her first album, citing "Simpson´s soaring vocals give "In This Skin" as smooth touch, as it sways between spirited midtempo melodies and her signature ballads."[13] Originally, the album was planned to be primarily produced by American rapper Missy Elliott, while the sole featured appearance was to be made by Nick Lachey.[14] However, the pair's contributions never made the final cut of the album. About the recording process, Simpson said that A&R executive Teresa LaBarbera Whites "had the incredible idea of creating a songwriting camp. I would go from room to room with one songwriter after another... We would sit there for two or three hours—write an entire song—and then go in and record it in 90 minutes. It was so refreshing."[15] Much of the album was recorded in Nashville and Los Angeles, with the help of established writers and producers.[16]

"Sweetest Sin", the album's first single was written by Diane Warren and it is about losing one's virginity.[17] MTV regarded the song as a "sweet track".[18] In a interview with Billboard, Simpson said the song was "nothing negative, it's all about love."[19] About the idea of her second single, "With You", Simpson said "it's cool for me just because it's my personality [...] Nick loves me with nothing but a T-shirt on so that's where the song idea came from."[20]

Billboard cited "I Have Loved You" and "Underneath" as the most expressive tracks from the album, citing the latter as "a four-month period where Simpson and Lachey called it quits, then-in the wake of Sep. 11, 2001... realized the value of making a relationship work. The title track, Billboard quote as "a plucky pop anthem aboute self-acceptance." About the song, Simpson said "I was 102 punds and people at the record label were telling me that I needed to lose weight. The song is saying that I am worthy to feel beautiful in my skin. It´s something that every woman experiences in one way o another."[21] The cover "Take My Breath Away" is Simpson and Lachey's love theme, she said "because it was playing the first time Nick kissed me".[22] "I've been obsessed with 'Take My Breath Away' for a very long time", she said. Nick Lachey helped produce the vocals for both of her cover songs. Another album's song is Angels, which was a tough session, Simpson said, because she had to do both songs in one day. Lachey helped her get in the right mood, she said, by keeping his hand in her back pocket "and being right there" during the recording session.[23]

Initial critical response to In This Skin was mixed. Sal Cinquemani of Slant Magazine gave the album 2.5 stars and called lead single "Sweetest Sin" a "catchy tune" but a "glossy, ever-so-slightly over-produced affair. And the same can be said for the entire album, which is weighed down by soggy, overwrought pop ballads that find Simpson repeatedly declaring her devotion to Lachey. 'My Way Home' contains one, bizarre 15-second display of Simpson's lung capacity and a Middle Eastern ether so faint and wispy it virtually evaporates beneath the track's slick production. In This Skin contains a few surprises, though, including 'Forbidden Fruit', a track unabashedly inspired by Madonna's 'Music', and 'Loving You', a seductively contrived reminder that, with teen pop long dead, Simpson should be aiming to recapture the club audience that helped launch her career with 'I Wanna Love You Forever'."[26]

Stephen Thomas Erlewine from AllMusic gave the album 2.5 stars as well as a mixed review, and wrote: "Now, for her third album, In This Skin, she tones down the trashy club beats and image, staying within the contemporary dance-pop realm while inching toward the middle-of-the-road diva that she's always yearned to be. The problem with In This Skin is that its heart is in the mature middle of the road but its sound is still pitched too young, making this a record that satisfies neither audience."[1] Jon Caramanica of Rolling Stone gave the album 2 stars and pointed out Simpson's training as a gospel vocalist and that she "long ago learned subtlety was at direct odds with testifying. Judging by Skin, her third album, it's a lesson she's still working through. Her powerful voice is done a disservice by insipid songwriting and arrangements — as on the loathsome club track 'Forbidden Fruit' and the uncomfortably stately ballad 'You Don't Have to Let Go' — that consistently get in the way of her pipes."[25]

Commercial performance

In This Skin debuted at number 10 on the Billboard 200 albums chart with 64,000 copies sold.[28] Within five months of release, the album had sold 565,000 copies.[29] In March 2004, the album was re-released and it jumped from number 16 to number two, selling 160,000 copies in that week and seeing a 205% increase in sales.[30] It was her highest weekly sales at the time, beating the sales of her sophomore album Irresistible, which debuted at number six with 120,000 copies.[30] On August 19, 2004 it was reported that after a year of release, In This Skin had sold over 2.4 million copies in the US.[31] As of February 2009, it has sold 2.9 million copies, according to Billboard.[32] In total the album charted on the Billboard 200 for 75 consecutive weeks.[33] Towards the end of 2004 In This Skin was ranked at number 14 on Billboard's year-end albums chart.[34] In December 2004, the album was certified triple platinum by the RIAA for shipments of three million copies.[35]

In its second week fell to number 75, but in its fourth week the album rose to a new peak of number 27. The album remained in the top 75 for 8 weeks.[36] In the UK, the album debuted at number 36, the same peak of her first album Sweet Kisses. It remained in the top 75 for 5 weeks. In Canada, the album reached number 51 in May 2004.[37] The album stayed on the chart for 30 weeks.[38] It was later certified Gold by the CRIA.

At the end of 2004 In This Skin was ranked as the 35th best selling album globally by the IFPI.[39] As of 2020, In This Skin has sold 7 million copies worldwide.[40]

Reissue

For the reissue of the album, Simpson recorded two new songs; one is a cover of the 1986 song "Take My Breath Away" by the band Berlin and the other a cover of Robbie Williams's hit song, "Angels". Simpson remarked that "Take My Breath Away" is Simpson and Lachey's love theme "because it was playing the first time Nick kissed me".[22] "I've been obsessed with 'Take My Breath Away' for a very long time," she said. Nick Lachey helped produce the vocals for both of her cover songs. Recording "Angels" was tough, Simpson said, because she had to do both songs in one day. She also revealed Lachey helped her get in the right mood by keeping his hand in her back pocket "and being right there" during the recording session.[23][41]

"Sweetest Sin" was released as the lead single from In This Skin. The music video, directed by Dean Paraskavopoulos,[42] starts with black-and-white shots of Simpson dancing and looking at viewers. It cuts to Simpson swaying on a beach, and embracing Nick Lachey underneath a waterfall on the beach. Further scenes are presented, such as one in which Simpson lies on a bed by herself. The video continues with intercut footage of the previous scenes, until the final seconds of the song, when Simpson is joined by her husband, in which they move on their bed on the beach. The video ends when Lachey disappears, leaving the singer alone. "With You" was released as the album's second single on September 16, 2003. The song received positive reviews from critics. Enjoyed more success, reaching at top ten on Australia and UK and top-twenty on Ireland, Norway and United States. The single was her first number one in Top 40 Mainstream chart. Later was certified Gold in US and Platinum on Australia. The video of the song was released as a DVD single. Simpson received one and only MTV Europe Music Award nomination for Best Female, enjoying her commercial success outside America. It received two MTV Video Music Award nominations for Best Female Video and Best Pop Video.[43][44]

Promotion

Simpson arriving at the 2004 MTV Video Music Awards in Miami, Florida on August 29, 2004

Simpson performed "Sweetest Sin" live at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, New Jersey.[45] The performance, dedicated to Lachey, was recorded and later broadcast on the second season of Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica.[46] "With You" was also performed on American late-night show The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and American morning show Live with Regis and Kelly on October 17 and October 23, 2003. She also gave a memorable performance of "With You"/"Angels" at 2004 MTV Video Music Awards. The promotion of "Angels" by Simpson was extensive; she sang a Spanglish duet of the song with Spanish singer David Bisbal at the 2004 Latin Grammy Awards, performed it on VH1 Divas 2004 and on shows like Late Show with David Letterman and The Early Show. She later performed it during the seventh season of Dancing with the Stars.

The Reality Tour

The Reality Tour to promote In This Skin was the second concert tour by Jessica Simpson. While promoting the re-release of her album, Simpson stated in several interviews the possibility of a tour, wanting to break away from filming her TV series and connect with her fans. The tour was officially announced in May 2004 through various media outlets,[47] with sponsorship from Ice Breakers[48] and Proactiv Solution.[49]

During an interview with the Associated Press, the singer said she wanted the concerts to focus on her music and her personality.[50] Onstage, Simpson was joined by a seven-piece band, with no dancers or choreography for the show. Simpson would perform songs from her three current albums, while providing anecdotes about her life and the songs. Unseen footage from her reality series and variety show (titled The Nick and Jessica Variety Hour) were included in the show as well. Each night, the singer dedicated "I Have Loved You" to the American armed forces and conducted a Q&A session with contest winners.[51]

Before the tour commenced, Simpson performed at several radio-sponsored music festivals including Your Show,[52] Wango Tango,[53] Summer Music Mania,[54] Zootopia,[55] Kiss Concert,[56] and Play Safe in the Park.[57]

The tour began in Chula Vista in May, visiting over 50 cities, ending in West Springfield. Despite early reports of poor ticket sales,[58] Simpson's tour became one of the biggest summer tours in North America, prompting the singer to add more shows in the U.S.[59] The tour ranked number 86 on Pollstar's "Top 100 Tours 2004", earning over seven million dollars.[60]
