I hope so, I know it wasn't successful but I loved Heartbreak On Hold. New Burke music is highly anticipated from me that's for sure.

She waited too long to release her sophemore album, she should have done a Olly Murs and released her second a year after the first.

It's set to be out in mid 2013 in the USA first. She's almost done recording. I prefer it that way too. She's HATED here. Even if she was perfect, she'd still be hated.

Hope so. I actually liked Heartbreak On Hold. I'm disappointed Tonight wasn't a single. Wonder why no more singles were released from it after Let It Go (which I like btw)?

I'm amazed that X-Factor are still acknowledging her existence with their past of erasing people from history.

They really could've used Between The Sheets. I'm still annoyed about that. It's actually her best potential single imo.
Anywho to tide you over:

Get Here If You Can. This voice needs to be used!!

I think no airplay was why they left it. If Radio (R1 and Capital) were not here for her, she'd flop regardless of quality. If Radio 1 didn't touch her with Overcome...well....you know.

I too was surprised but I'm glad they showed after the constant digs Louis and Tulisa have been taking throughout the series...

I think we'll get a single soon.

I do too. Her brother was saying that everyone will hear the proper power of her voice on this one, so I think no tampering of any sort, and a proper last shot. It really is for her
Who'd have thought this after The Silence in 2010? And the epic ANL tour?

Shady comment? From mwah? No.

I was one of the few people who brought Heartbreak on Hold for gawd-sake, I'm practically family!

Because the situation was hopeless tbh

UK radio wouldn't play her, even if she released Tonight or Between The Sheets so there was no hope for a good charting position

It was much better to just continue to work on the next album and focus on the US first

So annoying that the best female artist to emerge from the UK in years isn't having the huge success that her talent deserves.

She did.....she had songs including Don't Wake Me Up (now Chris Brown's) all recorded and ready to go, but RCA cut her budget and forced her to scrap her original second album, hence the delay. The album was originally scheduled for Summer 2011.

She's back recording a 3rd album now with an American release as her priority according to her. I hope it goes well for her tbh, because she's one artist that deserves success.

^ Are you sure about Don't Wake Me Up? That was originally Madonna's song before Chris Brown got it.

Yep when Madonna rejected it, Benny and Priscilla gave it to Alex...she confirmed that she recorded it at a fan dinner, but had to give it up at the last minute. The album we got was nothing like the one she originally recorded. She had to rush record new material in that delay....in fact even when Elephant was released, she still hadn't finished the album despite telling fans back in April 2011 that it was almost done.

It's a shame that she had such bad luck with her 2nd album, but I think her only issue has been the songs, which hopefully she is currently sorting out.
