Goes for adds in January (FMBQ). She's an Australian artist who released her Xenomania-produced debut album Lessons to be Learned earlier this year. "Sweet About Me" was an international hit. youtube.com/watch?v=yC8Tb7L9adUNext up... Girls Aloud!!! ;)

I love this. It was huge in the UK this summer, and I could definitely see it being a hit in the US, possibly with television support or something. I don't think releasing it in the winter is a great idea though.

This song has such a nice feel to it and it doesn't get old quickly. I can imagine it being a hit, but I can also see it flopping too.

Nice. But it will probably pull a "Mercy" and peak low.

This was my top tune this past summer, without actually realizing it. It's Winehouse by way of Xenomania. But judging by the other tracks I've given a listen, this is the only time both she & Xeno produced anything worthwhile.

Love this! I think she's beautiful. Much prettier than Duffy and Winehouse.

Not sure how this will do. If she gets promo it will probably do well. So many Aussies. The Veronicas, Delta and now Gabriella. Delta needs to relase her single to Pop though

Personally, this song is vomit-inducing. Singing like you have a mouth full of bees is NOT a good sound. Despite her grating singing voice, 'Don't Wanna Go To Bed Now' and 'Save The Lies' stomp all over this song.

So many Aussies. The Veronicas, Delta and now Gabriella. Missy Higgins' Where I Stood is also going for adds in January. a few Oz articles have Jessica Mauboy preparing for a US launch as well.

Jessica will fit right in with the US crowd. Her album is very international-sounding, and also very brilliant, judging by the clips out there.

:o :o YESS. Its about time. I agree with you Azriel, 'Don't Wanna Go To Bed Now' and 'Save The Lies' are both alot better than this. Even though this song will be like a year old when it goes for adds, I am still going to buy it on Itunes. ANd her album is really really good too.

The album is also produced entirely by Xenomania.

I like this. I can see this either being really huge or being a huge flop.

I like the song, but I don't think it's something that will do well on American Pop radio. Maybe Hot AC.

music coordinators on network tv seem to like her. i've heard her songs a few times on shows. 90210 played a bit of 'Save The Lies' last night, which I prefer to this song.

This isnt bad I like it.. It might get some love on z100.. MAYBE. I dont see the obsession with Girls Aloud?? I have listened to them just to see what the fuss was about.. But its like the UK version of the Pussycat Dolls.
