''Roller Coaster'' is the 2004 sophomore album by Scott Cain , Singer-songwriter and winner of Australian Popstars 2002 . It was released on the ABC Kids label and is targeted at Children , but is lyrically relatively adult and not dissimilar to his debut album, '' Controlled Folly ''.

The album's themes, according to the press release, are "songs that most kids can relate to; from having your first celebrity crush, hanging out, and generally enjoying life". Many of the tracks on ''Roller Coaster'' relate somehow to Skateboarding . The track " Hilary Duff " (about Hilary Duff , sometimes called "I've Got a Crush on Hilary Duff") was released for airplay as a promotional single, and a Music Video was shot, but the track never quite saw release as a proper commercial single.

Despite massive commercial failure, this album sparked a minor career revival for Cain, who received limited airplay with "Hilary Duff" and soon after the album's release opened for Hilary Duff on her tour of Australia. ''Roller Coaster'' is now out of print and was entirely removed from the ABC website less than a year after release. It would appear that the ABC wish to pretend the album never happened. However, copies can still be found tucked away in the children's section of many ABC Shops, usually marked down to $4.95 - a third of the original price.
