Mandy Moore admits she still has a lot to learn about music in an interview with the May issue of Details.

Referring to her past pop singles as “trite, blah, and crappy,” the 25-year-old star — who married hubby Ryan Adams, 34, last month– has vowed to turn over a new leaf with her latest effort Amanda Leigh, debuting next month.

“I found myself in the company of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, who had really quality music, much more so than mine was. I’m sure there are people scratching their heads, going, ‘Wow, how is she still around?’” the songstress confesses.

“The music is all a reflection of me now, not somebody else’s choices,” Mandy says of her fifth studio album, her first away from career-long label home Epic. “If people don’t like the music, then they don’t like me—and that’s quite all right.”
