Sarah Whatmore - Touchscreen
Believe it or not, Sarah Whatmore has a new single out - her first since 2009 - and its really good! You can download 'Touchscreen' now, and it has a video too:
http://https://www.youtube.com/watch...ature=youtu.be I really loved Sarah's album 'Time to Think' which was quite mellow and acoustic based - this is a bit of a return to her earlier dance/pop sound, but it still sounds very melodic and her voice is just beautiful! Such a shame that after a couple of hits she hasn't had much mainstream attention, but at least she is still making music that her remaining fans can enjoy. |

Nice, thanks for posting this, I would probably have never found out otherwise. It would be nice if this got some mainstream attention but I doubt it.
![]() Nice song though. |

![]() Nice song though. I've seen some of Sarah's fans on Twitter saying that it could be a hit, but to be honest I just can't see it. Of course I'd love to be proved wrong but getting noticed is SO difficult these days and artists who have been away for a long time and/or 'flopped' before so rarely get given a chance. Once you're in the top 40, you can stay there for months - but getting there in the first place is nearly impossible!

That OP link wasn't working for me

I quite like it. It's a pity she didn't release more singles in the 00s. Automatic was a great song and When I Lost You is ok too.

By way of a dubious reason to remember Sarah, there was a moment when Simon Cowell was so amazed by her performance that he remarked "Marry me". ![]()

From memory, when I decided my top 20 songs from 2003 Automatic just scraped in!

Incidentally if anyone fancies giving her a follow on Twitter, that's the best way to find out about an EP she's releasing soon. She is also really nice and communicates with fans! |

Sarah has released another new song today!
This one is called 'The Cure' and its more dancey, I'm not 100% sold on it yet but its seriously catchy and if people actually knew about it, it could be a hit!You can listen to the song here https://soundcloud.com/sarah-whatmore/the-cure-1 and its also available to download now. |

Thanks for posting these links. I'm not mad on 'The Cure' but 'Touchscreen' is great. It's not distinctive enough to make it a hit IMO but that doesn't make it a bad song.
If you like Sarah, it might be worthwhile checking out another artist, 'Nina'. She has released 3 EPs which have some fantastic songs on them. Here are my favourites: We Are The Wild Ones Beyond Memory Heart Of Glass (Blondie Cover) |
