If the video is up to par, I could see Let It Go being the perfect way for her to break in to the states.

She is so cheap and generic that I can't even listen through one entire song.

There are few popstars who I find it so much fun to take the piss out of, but "Let It Go" is really good.

"Let It Go" sounds right out of the mid-90s. Very Nightcrawlers..

She doesn't even have a bit of star quality/charisma/oomph, whatever you like to call it.

Alexandra Burke has revealed the cover and track list of her sophomore album, ‘Heartbreak on Hold’. The 12-track record, which includes the singles ‘Elephant’ and ‘Let it Go’ will hit UK stores on June 4th.
Burke describes ‘Heartbreak on Hold’ as a throwback to the 1990s Dance/Pop movement; channelling the sounds of classic Donna Summer and Soul II Soul.
See the full ‘Heartbreak on Hold’ track list below:
Heartbreak on Hold
Elephant (Ft. Erick Morillo)
Let It Go
This Love Will Survive
Fire
Between The Sheets
Daylight Robbery
Tonight
Love You That Much
Oh La La
Sitting On Top Of The World
What Money Can’t Buy

Loved her first three singles. Elephant is sub-par. Let It Go is ok. And why does she look like a tranny?

The album is pretty hit or miss for me. I either love a song, or I hate it.
I wish there had been a few more mid/down tempos. I LOVED Overcome, but this is just ok for me.

Listened to the album this morning. She sounds great. The standouts for me were "Heartbreak on Hold" (great lyrics, fun production) "Between The Sheets" (a little corny, but it got me), and "Oh La La" (has a fantastic Crystal Waters interpolation). It's worth a listen.

Poor Alexandra. :(
I really like her. I think she has a great voice, she's beautiful both inside and out, she was an utter joy to watch on X-Factor, and she is definitely a good performer as well. I just can't get into any of her material at all. I might give the album a spin but I didn't like 'Elephant' or 'Let It Go' (EDIT: actually LIG is alright, I just have a few issues with it) so I don't have high hopes.

"Heartbreak on Hold", "This Love Will Survive", "Tonight", "Fire" & "Beating Still" (off the Deluxe) are definitely single worthy. This girl deserves more success with this album, it's a lot of fun.

Alexandra is releasing an EP called New Rules. A press conference for the EP is happening sometime in the next week or so and it should be out soon! No release date yet though.
P.S: I thought it better to just use her old thread rather than make a new one. Especially since I'm the op for this one. :)

She's so underrated. On the X Factor she was great and most of her post show music material has been good too. Hopefully this new era will deliver and give her some traction.

I believe she's going down a more R&B route. Her 3rd album should also be out next year. It's apparantley going to be "Whitney meets Coldplay" in regards to sound. Which got me thinking it could be a more commercial/R&B version of Leona's Echo. Which is quite exciting as I LOVED Leona's Echo. Although I love everything she does pretty much.  |

lmao at "Whitney meets Coldplay", but hey I'm totally on board for that. She certainly can sing her ass off and I can totally envision the Coldplay thing too within the production of what she puts out. Sounds promising!

Any updates on this chick? Last I heard she was on the Bodyguard tour in the UK, but does she have any plans to release more original music anytime soon? I was jogging to Overcome the other day and it's still a dope debut.

I had no idea it was coming this week. I will give it a try. I expect it will sound like Simmer (Mahalia) which wouldn't be a bad thing.
