All the information here with a one-minute preview of the sublime 7th Heaven Remix!

It's Breathe Slow 2.0 and should be a smash!

I was happy when Drummer Boy underperformed she needed that little kick back down to earth as imo she has a pulsating EGO

This sounds better but nothing startling hardly Breathe Slow Part 2

i don't think Alesha Dixon will get any more solid hits now to be honest, this song is just as forgettable 'To Love Again' (Remember that Gary Barlow Co-Written song) the problem with Alesha Dixons music is its so unaffectionate, it has zero feeling...

Compared to Cheryl Cole, then its Cole hands down

I love it, I can't wait to hear it in full. I was worried from hearing Drummer Boy that her new album would be really similar to her debut, but Radio sounds a lot more in keeping with The Alesha Show.

Good song, 10 times better than Breathe Slow, imo. I actually like Drummer Boy, very fun catchy song.

I don't see a long future for Alesha in terms of success either and i wouldn't be suprised if she isn't dropped after this album. But i don't get a breathe slow part 2 vibe just yet

I was a bit annoyed 'To love again' Under performed, it's the only Alesha song i like.

As for this, it beats Drummer Boy, Which didn't under perform, it flopped, BADLY!

I like Alesha Dixon. But ... the sad truth is ... she just can't sing. She makes Cheryl Cole sound like Maria Callas!

i must have missed drummer boy. saw the video for it once, is it over and done with now?

poor alesha, although it's her fault for helping to dissolve the magnificent mis-teeq, of whom i was a massive fan.

yeah it was a huge flop. I dont think that her songs match her personality and to me they always sound just completely average.

I loved Mis-Teeq too but Alesha caught the fame bug and thought that if she went solo she could do the whole beyonce thing...

her solo songs always seem soulless and false to me - overproduced and underfelt.

and i guess alesha kind of got her wish - perhaps not with the music side of things but what with her judging on stricly come dancing she's definitely the most famous, most recognisable and most successful out of the mis-teeq girls.

I wouldn't say a huge flop
I mean it charted within in the top 20
A huge flop is a song that doesn't chart at all

nope... a 'Hit' song is something that stays in the charts for weeks and weeks... (not necessarily highest chart position)

Drummer Boy was only in the charts for 2 weeks

Another know it all twisting my words

I never said that either. Let's end this stupid time consuming argument right now. Your boring the hell out of me.

Can't wait to hear the full version of this, does anyone know when the full song is going to be premiered? It's getting a bit late since the song is released 8th November!

Yeah

She's lost her label enough money i think. The re-release of her album was a huge flop. It didn't even chart in the top 100. To love again didn't do well (it made top 15 but it didn't sell enough like her first two singles) and Drummer boy wasn't a hit either.

I loved her Alesha show era but i think Alesha has got a short future in the music biz anyway. She never took the charts by storm anyway. She has two silver singles and a platinum certified album but people haven't been crying out for her return to the charts.

It's a shame as I really like Alesha! But one thing is that she still has Strictly, I think that she's a great judge on it! )
