This is a "buzz" single to get the fans ready for the new album. What I love is she is getting back to the sound which made people fall in love with her on X Factor. Those who bought Hallelujah, her soul/gospel performances on X Factor etc, will all appreciate this. It is also different what is currently out there, and should therefore make Alex stand out. I like it alot!! Again it cements Alex as one of the best british vocalists the country has to offer. It has that Toni Braxton feel to it.

Gonna download this soon. I just listened to the preview. It's really good! Shows off her voice nicely.

It sounds so dated.
I hope her new album isn't anything like this. Her voice does sound good, though. |

uhh...her voice is amazing as usual but the production sounds cheap and dated. It reminds me of an Eternal b-side from 1997.
Alexandra has a world class voice but the material isn't doing her justice. |

This is the definition of boring dirge.
And what's the deal with the production. Sound like it was recorded from an internal microphone laptop or something that cost £5 from Argos. |

Boring - doesn't really go anywhere, has no sparkle, nothing catchy to remember it by.
I guess it's also part of the idea of having something that people can buy when she takes over in the Bodyguard in a few weeks. |

America should like this kind of sound; although she's not established there, it does sound like a Mariah Carey/Whitney Houston kind of song. She should try and get it on a TV show.

![]() But I agree with most, her best recorded vocal to date but the production is horrible. |

Great voice, terribly dated track. Would've made the top 5 in the early 90s, but will unlikely trouble the top 100 these days.

It's really dated and really bland, in my opinion. It shows off her voice very well but it's just not up to much as a song itself. It's a bit odd her using this as a buzz single, she's been away for a long time and any songs she puts out there (buzz singles or otherwise) needs to be catchy and appeal to the masses if she wants to regain any success!

Alexandra needs to do upbeat pop like "Start Without You" not dull ballads or overly clubby songs for me to have any interest in her

She really annoys me the way she laughs all the time in interviews. Can't say I like any of her songs. Bad boy and broken heels are cheap knock offs of American R&B. Her version of the Leonard Cohen song was ok though.

Why does someone having fun and laughing annoy you? I honestly think people have to act dull and lacking of a personality in this country for anyone to like them, otherwise they're labelled cocky or too full of themselves.
I can watch Leona Lewis, Lana Del Rey, Rita Ora, Katy Perry, Rihanna and Lady Gaga all fine interviews, but when Alexandra is on, she irritates me. She didn't on X Factor. She does now. I don't know why - maybe the poster you quoted does have a problem with her being cocky, but that's not what I think. Her music is good though, and that's all I care about. |
