Well that was unexpected! I can't see it doing much but I think the video and song are great for an independent release! I was always a big fan of Rachel, so I'm pleased. :)

    That's a good song, but unfortunately I can see this getting fcuk all airplay.

    If Rachel had sang something like that last year she would have become one of the instant favourites. But of course Simon wouldn't allow that. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Black artist trying to be artistic automatically = Kelis or Grace Jones. Nice. ;)

    Not bad!

    I can see myself buying that when it comes out. :)

    She really does have a great voice!

    I gave it the thumbs down. Not my cup of tea at all.

    I liked Rachel. Big girl, big voice. However she was like Dione in one of the previous series. She had zero personality and as such I cannot see her being a success.

    Shame.

    She struck me as a decent sort.

    How do you know she had zero personality? Or are you just basing this on the manipulative way the show favours some acts, and ignores others?

    Oh I quite like it! It needs to be advertised and released PROPERLY though.

    Nah its not that, the fact they're both black never even registered!

    The tone of voice sounded similar.

    Songs better than I expected, doubt it'll be big though, considering it's an independent release. It's a shame really.

    Not impressed. I expected something completely different and even though I was never a fan, it really did not show off her voice.

    That is how she came over on the show.

    One has no other way to judge than how she is presented in the media.

    She was hardly sparkling in her appearances on the sofa post X-Factor either.

    Chunky lass though. I found her rather attractive although she could do with bigger boobs.

    Rachel topped the voting in Week 3 I think it was in the last series before this one.

    I like it. She was awfully mentored in her series. Such bad styling and not great songs. The weird hair didnt help.She looks great here and I like the song. Hope she does welll although Im not confident.

    Ah right, I can see where I got confused, ya should have said the breakthrough artist of 2011. :p I think Rachel has a fantastic voice, I love the song, but I'm not sure if she'll get the airplay. :( She deserves it.

    she was easily the best contestant last year in 2009
    -but sadly no one voted for her. she was in the bottom two nearly every week.

    SImon didn't save her in the end saying she'd been in the bottom 2 so many times & that he couldn't keep saving her because the public obviously didn't want her.
    he changed his tune for Katie this year.

    Bloody hell, that's catchy. :eek: So happy for her - I was always a big fan of her on the show.

    Not to sure on the image though, I much preferred her look at the X-Factor audition/bootcamp.

    I actually like it.
    Something that would do well, if she did a slower song, it probably wouldn't have airplay, this might get some airplay.

    Very under rated on the show but she often looked defeated before she began and that became a self fullfilling downward spiral for her really.

    Her styling was always abominable.

    I hope she does well for herself now on the back of it anyway.
