She sounds amazing in that, but whoever decided that she should now be called Martha should be fired. |

Her real name suits her so much better! I really want a jazz and soul album from her

Stupid decision to change her name, I don't get what they think that is going to do.

I watched some other videos on her "Martha" channel. There's one where she explains the name change, and it seems like she's going through a personality disorder or something. It shows clips from her time on The X Factor etc, then she goes into this speech about how "Martha is the girl I've always wanted to be"...it's quite sad.
Either way she has a decent voice and I liked Cathedral, but it's a shame she feels that changing who she is will make her more successful in the industry. I liked her when she was just Laura White, she seems a bit lost. |

Hardly anybody remembers her real name anyway, so why bother changing it??

She succinctly explains it as the name being a pseudonym and reflecting her "old soul" and influences such as Ella Fitzgerald and Aretha Franklin. |

Five years later and she's still saying her material is coming soon. Nobody cares anymore, 'Martha'.

It doesn't sound like a personality disorder at all.

It's not difficult to grasp is it? And I actually like it - it seems to fit her persona somehow, kind of old fashioned and quirky.
This is also a good point. I love Martha/Laura but am getting more than tired of waiting for her new material. She's posted on Facebook that she's got a publishing deal and has been offered a record deal.I really hope that means she'll release something soon. In the meantime though she's posting a new youtube video every week under the title Martha Fridays and this week's is epic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiQd4...&feature=share |

Perhaps it emerged that there was another singer named Laura White and she didn't want a fancy stage name, so chose an old-fashioned, uninteresting alias so that it is all about her music rather than her.
