Newest single from "The Next Star" runner up Alyssa Reid. It's actually catchy, with the infamous "Alone" chorus and the rap verses.

This is good. "Alone" is one of my Top 10 all-time favorites, so I always enjoy hearing cover versions being done.
My only problem with this is the end of the song, it just isn't powerful enough.

I like it... Anyone know who produced it?

I just came in to make this topic, not realizing it already existed.
I'm not sure how I feel about this. (I'll also note that I'm not one of those fuddy duddies that will complain anytime a classic is brought into a new song, whether as a sample or a cover). She's a good vocalist but the use of this song doesn't seem to fit.

I'm surprised at how well this is doing! It's kind of like the Canadian version of the "rap" "sung" hits of this past summer ("Airplane", "Love the Way You Lie"). I'm excited to see the video!!

I really like this! I randomly heard it when I was listening to a Canadian station in the Detroit/Windsor area.....went and downloaded it on iTunes when I got home. :)
It made me think of "Young Forever" more than the other rap/sung hits because of the use of "Alone."

The non-rap version plays on my AC stations ALL THE TIME!

As a Heart stan, I absolutely HATE this. "Alone" is just one of those songs you really can't mess around with.
