Daniel Powter (also known as DP) is the second studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Daniel Powter, released on July 26, 2005, in Canada and on April 11, 2006, in the United States. The album debuted at No. 9 on the Billboard 200 with 89,213 copies sold that week.[7] The album debuted on the Japanese Oricon charts at number 242. However, the album slowly climbed the charts and eventually peaked at number four. The album eventually became the eighteenth best-selling album of 2006 in Japan with 584,000 copies sold and was the highest-ranked Western album on the year-end chart.[8] The album was certified gold in the U.S. on May 24, 2006.

Critical reception

Daniel Powter was met with "mixed or average" reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 54 based on 11 reviews.[1]

In a review for AllMusic, critic reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote: "Nevertheless, as a record - as a series of expertly produced, expertly recorded adult pop tunes - Daniel Powter is a debut that's easy to enjoy, thanks to Powter's melodic skills and sweet voice."[2] At Rolling Stone, Barry Walters said: "Lacking the star personality of a Robbie Williams or the wit of a Ben Folds, Powter doesn't rise above his instantly familiar keyboard riffs, yet neither does he drown in them. Instead he rides the hooks that propelled "Bad Day" from its background use in American Idol to the charts, while producer Mitchell Froom supplies the ear candy."[6]
