Just been reminded of some great performances on Facebook. Some of my favourites, in fact.

Purple Rain Group
Ruth Lorenzo Fan Page

Anyway, they led me to this: http://www.formulatv.com/videos/448/...oor-bob-dylan/

Haven't seen the beginning bit of that for a long time. I feel like telling Dannii to cheer up, lol. But we all thought it was a foregone conclusion, right? Boy were we wrong!

aww I remember that, and I so thought she would have been out. When she performed KOHD I just thought, aww it's a shame after an amazing performance.
But then she was saved . Came Fifth . And is signed to EMI .

And hopefully single out in June as she said in one of her gigs.

If it still is June, could we hear something next month ?

It does go April .. May .. June doesn't it ? Or am I making a mistake ?

Surely the song should be premiered sometime next month, and video and so on ................. !

Yeah, I thought she was going home too, I think everyone did. It must be one of the biggest upsets in XF history. Maybe the biggest? Dunno what other ones would compare... Maria Lawson, maybe?

Yes, lol. April, May, June. And it's almost May! Time to be hearing something!

Where do you think she'll premiere it? At a gig? And the video?

Just about nearly had a heart attack!

RuthLorenzo1 well just getting ready to go see @diana_music perform @ G.A.Y cant wait!!! single out tomorrow guys.....needs to be #1 x

Must.read.more.slowly. Interpret.

Not Ruth's single. Diana's!

Gosh, after seeing Diana's success, I'm feeling quite optimistic for Ruth! Bring it on!

I know I shoul'd learn to do links but can't be bother lol. Danni's twitter Iam writing songs with RuthLorenzo.

^Bring it on! Indeed! And congratulations to Diana for No.2!!! [Edit: And No.1 on iTunes!]


Lol, OG!

Here's the full tweet:

DanniiMinogue Writing some songs with Ruth Lorenzo RT @UltimateDisco: @DanniiMinogue hiya! are you doing some more singing with Ian and Terry while you're in London?

Question is: Are they writing for Dannii? Or for Ruth? Or could it be a duet?


Bit of background about Ian and Terry, if they are involved too. Terry is the guy who was "heading to the studio to work with Dannii and Ruth" a couple of months back. They are Ian Masterson and Terry Ronald, a songwriting/production team who have worked extensively with Dannii in the past.

Have a click around the site, it's pretty good and is kept up-to-date.

DanniiMinogue @RuthLorenzo1 working on our second demo today rock that studio lovely

Whaaat's going onnn?

It would be great if she could premiere the first play of the single on one of the big radio stations. Radio 1 is MASSIVE, so hopefully on there. But I dunno. I don't mind, as long as we get it !!

Also regarding the Dannii/Ruth thing, I wonder what's going on ? Are they writing a song together ? Doing a duet ? Is it for Dannii's album, is it for Ruth's ? Omg I wanna know.

Ohhh, I really want some official news. I've waited too long now! I'm getting impatient.

Surely something must be announced soon? A release date? The name of the album? Name of debut single? Artwork for the album/single? Tracklist? Video? ANYTHING!!!

You're making me wet myself!

I was listening to a song yesterday that I really used to love and forgot how good it was:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV4DiAyExN0

Then I thought...I can totally imagine Ruth releasing something like this, would suite her very well! Anyone agree?

I've been seeing Diana everywhere this week - in newspapers, magazine covers, on TV... It's amazing! Nice to see her getting support from her XF buddies too. Can't wait for Ruth's turn.



+1! We keep hearing hints about this or that, but no info! I want INFO! NOW! Something concrete, or a teaser even.

And check this out from Dannii earlier:

DanniiMinogue ...not sure if @RuthLorenzo1 is releasing Purple Rain? She has amazing original songs written

"Amazing original songs" - *SQUEEE*



Don't do that!



Oh, I haven't listened to this song for ages either. I can totally imagine Ruth singing this or something like it! Remember we used to want her singing 'Black Velvet'? Or something Bonnie Tyler-esque? Lol, that was aaaaages ago!

Dunno what her first single is gonna be like, but there has to be stuff like this on the album though? It's like made for her!

...or she's made for it ...or something.

Ok so what should Ruth's album be called?

Callunax mentioning 'Black Velvet' inspired that question since that would be an awesome album title.

Black Tomorrow? Black Friday? Songs from the Blackberry Tree? Do you see the theme here?

EDIT: Just to add, maybe someone should tweet Ruth asking what month we can expect the single/album.

Black Rain?

She said the single would be out in June at the St. Patrick's Day gig in Belfast (17th March, I think), and that the album would be out "soon after". I don't think it's changed... please, don't let it be changed!

And Oi! Know Yourself!, I want a word with you! I'm still listening to Hoobastank - The Reason. It's Knockin' on Heaven's Door all over again!

This has got to be lyrics for her new song 'Bloodline/Mi Sangre'???

RuthLorenzo1 Escrito en el aire, siento su perfume,veo la senal y es todo lo ke kiero ser.solo bajo mis pies un nuevo amanecer... naciendo de la tierrra, mi sangre. rubies en las venas, mi sangre

It's very nice in Spanish. Roughly:

It's written in the air, I feel its scent, I see the sign and it is all that I want to be. Nothing else under my feet, a new dawn born of the earth, my blood. Rubies in the veins, my blood.

Ruth really needs to hurry up and get something released. Now. We knew lots about Diana at least a month before 'Once' was released so we should know SOMETHING soon or else I can see this being pushed back AGAIN, in which case XF7 will be on and then all the big stars will be releasing in the second half of the year. Surely it won't hurt to release a PICTURE or a TRACKLIST or something?!?!!?

I doubt Ruth has much say in regards to releasing previews/details sadly. If EMI think they can get more sales by delaying it to release around the same time as the new series of X Factor...then they will.

Interesting one, Callous. If delaying her single release a few months would help her get more sales then I think that would probably be a good idea for her. Do you have some inside knowledge that this might be the case?

No..not even a microscopic amount.

I just wouldn't be surprised if they tried that tactic. Hard to say if it would be a good idea or not. On one hand it makes it easier to advertise to their target audience..on the other she might end up being pushed to the sidelines by the media who would be concentrating on Joe.

maybe this lot can be harrassed for some info...

Thing is, though, is that people are just going to end up losing interest and/or diverting their attention to other X-Factor acts like Alexandra, Leona, Joe, JLS, Diana, Olly, Stacey, Jedward, Cheryl etc and Ruth needs to firmly establish a hit BEFORE X-Factor imo. If Ruth gets a massive selling album/single in the summer it'll increase chances of her being invited back on X-Factor for a performance, thus giving her another hit and more sales.

Ruth's album was originally meant for November 2009, then March 2010 and now the date is unknown but MAYBE the single is released in June. Oh wait, isn't that NEXT MONTH!?!? If she is releasing a single in June she needs to get it sent out to radio stations quickly, get a video shot and released, get some promotion lined up and start making announcements online (for fans to promote) and maybe some TV ads. Surely the album must be done now? The summer market is always relatively quiet except for dance songs and rap, so Ruth could easily do what Plan B is doing right now and stick around the album charts while the singles market is dominated with rap and dance.

Ruth Lorenzo rules. That is all
