:Young Foolish Happy

Lott began work on the album in Los Angeles in January 2011.{{cite web |url=http://www.pixielott.com/site/global/blog/global/2011/03/10/march_blog |title=March Blog |website=PixieLott.com |date=10 March 2011 |access-date=10 October 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110315023556/http://www.pixielott.com/site/global/blog/global/2011/03/10/march_blog |archive-date=15 March 2011}} In April 2011 she told Digital Spy, "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."{{cite web |last=Corner |first=Lewis |url=https://www.digitalspy.com/music/a312634/pixie-lott-working-with-big-names-on-new-lp/ |title=Pixie Lott 'working with big names on new LP' |publisher=Digital Spy |date=4 April 2011 |access-date=7 May 2019}} On 17 September 2011, Lott revealed the album title, which is inspired by the Tams' 1968 song "Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy".{{cite web |url=http://www.pixielott.com/site/global/news/global/2011/09/17/pixie_reveals_new_album_title_ |title=Pixie Reveals New Album Title! |website=PixieLott.com |date=17 September 2011 |access-date=10 October 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110925113231/http://www.pixielott.com/site/global/news/global/2011/09/17/pixie_reveals_new_album_title_ |archive-date=25 September 2011}} 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."{{cite web |url=http://www.heatworld.com/Celeb-News/2011/10/heat-talks-to-Pixie-Lott/ |title=heat talks to Pixie Lott |work=Heat |date=10 October 2011 |access-date=3 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111013041054/http://www.heatworld.com/Celeb-News/2011/10/heat-talks-to-Pixie-Lott/ |archive-date=13 October 2011}}

"All About Tonight" was released on 2 September 2011 as the album's lead single. Lott premiered the song on BBC Radio 1's The Chris Moyles Show on 11 July 2011.{{cite web |url=http://www.pixielott.com/site/global/news/global/2011/07/08/hear_all_about_tonight_first_ |title=Hear 'All About Tonight' First! |website=PixieLott.com |date=8 July 2011 |access-date=3 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110713233220/http://www.pixielott.com/site/global/news/global/2011/07/08/hear_all_about_tonight_first_ |archive-date=13 July 2011}} It debuted at number one on the UK singles chart, becoming Lott's third UK number one.{{cite web |url=http://www.officialcharts.com/press/pixie-lott-and-example-all-about-number-one/ |title=Pixie Lott and Example – all about number one! |publisher=Official Charts Company |date=11 September 2011 |access-date=3 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120628141801/http://www.officialcharts.com/press/pixie-lott-and-example-all-about-number-one/ |archive-date=28 June 2012}} "All About Tonight" also reached number nine on the Irish Singles Chart, Lott's second highest-peaking single on the chart after "Boys and Girls" (2009).{{cite web |url=http://irish-charts.com/showinterpret.asp?interpret=Pixie+Lott |title=Discography Pixie Lott |website=irish-charts.com |access-date=3 November 2011}}

Young Foolish Happy received generally mixed reviews from music critics. BBC Music's Fraser McAlpine felt that the album has "little of the magic that characterised her debut's highs" and criticised Lott for "working with songwriters who are capable of a finely tuned pastiche or two", but nevertheless cited "Nobody Does It Better" and "You Win" as "notable exceptions".{{cite web |last=McAlpine |first=Fraser |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/bcm5 |title=Review of Pixie Lott – Young Foolish Happy |publisher=BBC Music |date=4 November 2011 |access-date=14 November 2011}} Rick Pearson of the London Evening Standard noted that Lott "opts for a more soulful direction this time around, something that works better with her wind tunnel of a vocal. She's still guilty of imitation rather than innovation, however, particularly on the synth-heavy 'All about Tonight', which is a craven rip-off of a Katy Perry record. But an identity is the only thing that's lacking here."{{cite web |last=Pearson |first=Rick |url=https://www.standard.co.uk/goingout/music/cds-of-the-week-david-lynch-birdy-and-pixie-lott-7427450.html |title=CDs of the week: David Lynch, Birdy and Pixie Lott |work=Evening Standard|location=London |date=4 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140302225806/http://www.standard.co.uk/goingout/music/cds-of-the-week-david-lynch-birdy-and-pixie-lott-7427450.html |archive-date=2 March 2014 |access-date=15 July 2017}} AllMusic critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine named the "Motown-mythologizing" "Stevie on the Radio" one of the "brighter, better songs [on the album], largely because it has bigger beats and hooks", but commented that "the rest of the record has the form of a blockbuster record but lacks the requisite rhythms or hooks and its scale dampens Lott's spunky personality, which was her primary charm on her debut."{{cite web |last=Erlewine |first=Stephen Thomas |author-link=Stephen Thomas Erlewine |url=https://www.allmusic.com/album/young-foolish-happy-mw0002233554 |title=Young Foolish Happy – Pixie Lott |publisher=AllMusic |access-date=15 July 2017}}

Ben Chalk of MSN Music wrote that while the ballads are "the real weak point", the uptempo material is "a vast improvement". Chalk continued, "Where debut Turn It Up showcased an original writing talent which belied the giggly blonde Essex girl persona, Young Foolish Happy sometimes lapses into a pastiche of Pixie's musical heroes."{{cite web |last=Chalk |first=Ben |url=http://music.uk.msn.com/features/14-11-11-jls-pixie-lott-snow-patrol |title=14/11/11 – JLS, Pixie Lott, Snow Patrol |website=MSN Music |date=17 November 2011 |access-date=11 February 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140222223253/http://music.uk.msn.com/features/14-11-11-jls-pixie-lott-snow-patrol |archive-date=22 February 2014}} Duncan Gillespie of NME found "All About Tonight" and "What Do You Take Me For?" to be "quite good", but dismissed Lott's "Jools Holland-ready retropop collaboration with Stevie Wonder" as "horrible, but still not horrible enough. Rather than righteous ire, you're left with only a sense of moral and cultural confusion, rather as if you'd caught yourself lusting after an ironing board."{{cite web |last=Gillespie |first=Duncan |url=https://www.nme.com/reviews/album/reviews-pixie-lott-12423 |title=Album Review: Pixie Lott – 'Young Foolish Happy' |work=NME |date=4 November 2011 |access-date=14 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111108154037/http://www.nme.com/reviews/pixie-lott/12423 |archive-date=8 November 2011}} Simon Gage of the Daily Express stated that although Young Foolish Happy is a "pretty solid album of bouncy pop numbers", artists like Adele, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry leave "artists like Pixie out in the cold", adding that the album "has all the catchiness you would expect from last year's golden girl, but this year is a very different place."{{cite web |last=Gage |first=Simon |url=http://www.express.co.uk/entertainment/music/283109/CD-review-Young-Foolish-Happy-Pixie-Lott-Mercury |title=CD review – Young, Foolish, Happy: Pixie Lott (Mercury) |work=Daily Express |date=11 November 2011 |access-date=15 July 2017}} Virgin Media's Ian Gittins agreed, commenting that the album is "adequate, but never special: lacking Perry's raunch, Gaga's glitz, Adele's larynx or Jessie J's sass, it looks like Pixie Lott is set to remain a decidedly B-list pop star."{{cite web |last=Gittins |first=Ian |url=http://www.virginmedia.com/music/reviews/pixie-lott-young-foolish-happy.php |title=Pixie Lott: Young Foolish Happy Album Review |publisher=Virgin Media |access-date=14 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140222002503/http://www.virginmedia.com/music/reviews/pixie-lott-young-foolish-happy.php |archive-date=22 February 2014}} Kevin Mathews of Singaporean newspaper Today expressed that the album "contains enough vocal and rhythmic hooks to keep the pop public sated as tracks like 'Come Get It Now', 'All About Tonight' and 'Nobody Does It Better' deliver in all these departments with some aplomb. The rest of Young Foolish Happy does not stray too far from this formula, which should keep Pixie Lott in demand for the immediate future."{{cite web |last=Mathews |first=Kevin Mathews |url=http://www.todayonline.com/Entertainment/Cdreviews/EDC111206-0000009/Young-Foolish-Happy-l-Pixie-Lott |title=Young Foolish Happy {{!}} Pixie Lott |work=Today |date=6 December 2011 |access-date=5 December 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111223234037/http://www.todayonline.com/Entertainment/Cdreviews/EDC111206-0000009/Young-Foolish-Happy-l-Pixie-Lott |archive-date=23 December 2011}}
