Mad respect for the person who stans this song over any others........
......by Hannah
It's a solid season opener, setting up the last year for the show. Critically speaking, AllMusic used the song as an example of the soundtracks "scattered" sound calling it a "new wave-tinged dance-pop" song and Common Sense Media says through this song Hannah sings about "having fun on the dance floor".
Y'all were pretty mixed on the song. I hope Ms. Poptarts won't be too mad at @DJHazey (5): Yes, bring the synths back. Unfortunately, unlike Kiss it Goodbye for example, this a relatively toothless and kind of repetitive. I appreciate the style a lot but it's like a demo-form of something I'd love. I understand this point of view, but it sounds finished to me. @M24 (6.8) prefers previous party songs: The party song of this album. It goes nowhere though, I guess HR had already used up all the bangers for the previous soundtracks. This is still a banger. And I don't think Human Resources controls what goes on soundtracks. @savilizabeths (6.5) likes the verses: The verses are actually pretty damn fun but the chorus just doesn’t work. It’s kinda grating. The bridge is cringe too. Oh well. I used to find it a little grating too, but it grew on me.
Finally, we have @iheartpoptarts who gave this song over any other Hannah song her 11, and had one request: Post the Almighty Mix and I'll heart you forever, I stan it so much and it's basically what I'm voting for here. I prefer it in Radio Mix length, but you know, whichever link works. Anything you want.

Are You Ready was written by Toby Gad, BC Jean and Lyrica Anderson and produced by Toby Gad for Hannah Montana Forever, the final season's soundtrack. The song is an electro pop rock banger about going out, ignoring boys and partying. It's a whole lot of fun, and actually a little more racy lyrically than Hannah's earlier songs, which I think is further proof of the showrunners wanting to mature Hannah's image a little more for the final season, as Miley was for Can't Be Tamed. Lyrics like the one pointed out above, boys trying to get digits, guys having their eyes on them, and more. It's very subtle, but it works well within the album, as well as leaning into the sound presented on Miley's third album, though being a tad more basic I think than most songs on there. Now, I have to say, I was completely surprised when this out of all Hannah songs, got an 11, but knowing @iheartpoptarts, it actually makes sense. This sounds very much like something she'd stan the hell out of, so I hope top 70 is a solid placing for her. Actually, something that was a lot of fun for me was seeing how eclectic y'all were in your favorite Hannah songs. 13/19 of us chose an 11 for a Hannah song, and only 5 of those are shared between two songs. That means a total of 10 songs by Hannah were someone's favorite. I think that's a pretty wide range for so many voters. The Miley stats on this are interesting as well, but I'll wait until the first 11 for her goes. Anyways, I really enjoy this song. It's a lot of fun, especially the verses, and the production is perfect to my ears. It's such a banger. It's never been one of my favorites, but I still really enjoy it. The mini electric guitar breakdown after the bridge might be my favorite part. The song is featured in the very first episode of season four, "Sweet Home Hannah Montana" which revolves around...

... Miley, Lilly, Jackson and Robby moving to their really cool new house that looks very Tennessee but is somewhere in Malibu I think. Robby told Miley that he brought something special from home for her bedroom, which turned out to be everything from her old room in Tennessee when she was a kid, fue to her saying she wished she could pack it all up and ship it home. This was of course, a spur of the moment thing and not something she actually wanted, and Miley and Lilly are horrified to see it. Instead of hurting her dad's feelings and telling the truth, she decides to do something similar, by using a shirt that's very bright and loud that's similar to one he had when she was a kid that he hated. To get the shirt, she needs 50,000 tickets, and a girl comes up with that amount, wanting a big tiger. When Miley starts beating up the tiger to convince the kid she shouldn't get it, the kid says, "Stop it, you're hurting Hannah!" as in Montana, so Miley has Lilly keep the girl occupied while she gets into costume, and performs a song dedicated to the girl, it being this song. She only does the first verse and pre-chorys, but afterwards she says she'll sing whatever the kid wants, for 50,000 tickets, to which the girl happily agrees. She gives the shirt to her dad, and he tries to avoid hurting Miley's feelings the way she did, saying he loves the shirt. After threatening to take him out like that, he admits he hates the shirt, and when he doesn't get the point, Lilly explodes, explaining Miley hates her room. They of course, have a small little heart-to-heart and Miley and Lilly decide to convert the barn into a cool bedroom.

The song:
The Almighty Mix:
(Okay I totally understand why this specifically is your 11. A banger.)
And a Toby Gad co-write/production that never gets old:
