Emeli Sandé is a hotly tipped British female. Her voice is somewhat reminsicent of Leona's. Her debut album Our Version Of Events is due February 13 and includes the hit singles "Heaven" and "Daddy". She also featured on Professor Green's number one hit "Read All About It". "Next To Me", her third solo single, is my favourite of hers so far.
"Heaven" #2 UK.
"Daddy" #21 UK.
"Next To Me"

I like "Next to Me," but haven't been impressed with anything else I've heard from her.

"Next to Me" is fantastic but I find "heaven" and "Daddy" very forgettable. Her voice is fantastic and I think she's got her own thing going on, I'm expecting very big things for this girl this year.

I checked out some live videos of her on Youtube and her vocals are just beyond incredible. I'm going to have to check out more of her music.

She worked with Alicia Keys on a few songs, and here is the track that appears on her album, co-written with Alicia Keys.
Hope

Apparently it's going to leak any minute now. "River" is already out there.

Love this girl's voice. The UK now has 2 great singers called Adele! A most unusual happening.

The album is also slated for a US release in June/July 2012. I hope she smashes! I hope she gets the love she deserves.
Hopefully she wins the Brit Award for Best Breakthrough Act next week.

I just came in here to post that i needed her album in the U.S. immediately. I previewed her album on the UK itunes store on a whim and i was blown away.

LOVE her. Next to Me is flawless U.S. second single with Heaven being the first/buzz single. June 5th is when the album is supposed to be released in the U.S. says Amazon.com I really hope she sees major success her it'd be more than well-deserved. She's also the BRITs Critics Choice so I think that bodes well.

My Kind of Love Where I Sleep Mountains Maybe Suitcase Next to Me River
I like her. I wonder if anything different will be included on the U.S. version.

"Next To Me" has grown on me in leaps and bounds over the past couple of days. I always really liked it, but now I LOVE it. It really sounds like a classic. The album is fairly boring taken all at once, but there are some standouts and I think a lot of the songs will be growers like "Next To Me" was. "Mountains", "Suitcase" and "Breaking The Law" are my favourites on first listen.
The album is on track for another week at number one too, by the way. "Next To Me" is number two in the midweeks again, but it's been back up to to the top on iTunes briefly this week and is only being held back by "Somebody That I Used To Know" rebounding. I'd love for "Next To Me" to replace it.

I'm loving this album, sort of like Massive Attack fronted by a female. I'm obsessed with "My Kind of Love" right now.
Is "Next To You" going to be her US single? I think it could be very successful.

I hope so, and I imagine so too. Nothing else on the album strikes me as being a potential US hit, but "Next To Me" could make waves in the post-Adele climate.

YES! Great single choices IMHO. I see all the UK choices doing well in the U.S. if Next to Me is the first official single.
