Was browsing the bbc website and found the Sound of 2006 poll, voted for by music critics and broadcasters to try and predict which new artists will be big in 2006.

I listened to the samples and thought their top prediction, Corinne Bailey Rae , sounded really good.

Go have a listen see if you find anything you like

She is undoubtedly going to be big in 2006 and deservedly so IMO as she is brilliant. Plus she has a very powerful supporter in Jools Holland - he clearly loves her music. I can't believe she is from Leeds, first time I saw her video I just assumed she was from the US.

Love Like a Star, Choux Pastry Heart and Enchantment - The three I've heard.

Loved the video to Like a Star too. Supposed to be a great live performer too, I've not seen her.

She really is going to be huge. Jo Whiley on Radio 1 has been playing her for a while now, she has just started playing her next single as well, Put Your Records ON. Very good tune.

She has been working on her album for ages now and its due out quite soon apparently

I agree, this girl is great. I love the tone of her voice. Her new video can be viewed here.

And whilst we all wait for her album, you can listen to a live version of 'Til It Happens To You' here.

Thanks for the links, it's the first time I've heard 'Til It Happens To You', but I love it! It sounded like she was right here singing to me! (I've got new speakers)

My fave track so fair and is Young & Foolish though

Thanks for the video link.

*Edit* Didn't see the above mention of You and Foolish.

Yeah, I really like that one as well . According to Amazon it's not on the album though. The next single (Feb 20th) has 2 new songs as b-sides so I'll definitely be buying that .

Is it Young and Foolish as I called it, or You and Foolish as boozer did? Somehow it magically appeared on my computer (*looks angelic*) and it's called Young and Foolish there!

Thanks for the information about the single and the new b-sides, maybe you should ask for a job as a promo person for her, as you're doing quite a good job already!

(By the way, I'm not getting at you if it seems like I am, we both like her music, and it's good to spread the love - as it were!)

lol, I just checked the track listings on Amazon (they're usually quite accurate). I think that other song is 'Young and Foolish' as it makes more sense!

I think she's got the promotion sorted as she's doing some TV/radio appearances soon for her new single. I might even watch TOTP (for the first time in years) to see her .

Young and Foolish does make more sense, but as I haven't seen many people mention it I thought maybe it was You and Foolish - I'm easily confused

Thanks for reminding me about TOTP, I sat there for ages waiting for her to come on last week and she never did! Must make sure I catch her this week!

No worries!

Like I said, I'm just easily confused

Wow, she was amazing! I got shivers at the end, and not just because I'm cold

She looked so happy too, bless her!

I really wanna see her live now! *runs off to find tickets...*

What did everyone else think?

(apologies for my gushing!)

Just in case anyone missed it, some kind person recorded Corinne's Top Of The Pops performance and you can view it online here.

I just bought tickets to see her live in Manchester next month and I can't wait. I'm in love with her voice and I can't wait until the album is released.

I've just seen on her website that her album is being released a week early on the 27th Feb, the site gives a link to amazon, which still says it's being released on the 6th March - so I'm a lil confused!

Just looked on the HMV site though, and that says the 27th Feb, available for £9.99 with free UK delivery! Here's the link Now I sound like the promo person!!

Oooh, 'Put Your Records On' just came on the radio!

Amazon will update it soon enough no doubt, I'm pleased it's coming out a week earlier, I can't wait. Just listening to Put Your Records On right now and I love it!
