She has just been announced as the support act for Cold Play's US tour. ( maybe TF put a word in for her ;) )
I hope she has her feet on the ground, it's going to be absolutely massive.....

I certainly would have done had I known :D She has been in the business a while writing for others and whatever success she does have will be much deserved.

Well I almost had a chat to her tonight at work on the phone!.she had called my freind and he could not find me(its always the way isn't it).It seems she has knocked the late W.H., off the top record,the thing about this girl is that not only can she sing..........she writes the songs as well,true talent.

I think for staying power you need to be able to write in the industry, otherwise in general writers and trends, flavour of the month and fan base move on.
Having listened to the album a few times it may be a little too good, ( if you like her type of music ) with few if any "filler tracks" It's going to be very hard to follow :)

Oh P: when you do speak to her, pass on my regards.....:D and phone number, and address, and dates I am free to meet up......:D :D :D :D

Anyone been watching The Voice?

If so you'll have seen aspiring singer Ruth Brown having a go at "Next To Me". No offence to the girl, but inexplicably everyone is raving about her, whereas we thought she slaughtered the song. Have a look here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfBE6R4MsaM

At 26 seconds when she gets to the first "You'll find him, you'll find him next to me" it sounds more like "You'll vind um, you'll vind um negsumee". And what those facial expressions were about, I don't know!

Apparently she has conceded that she needs to work on her diction (and in fairness, I'm sure she sings a billion times better than I ever could!)

Well what a difference to somebodys life in under 12 months, top selling album, no 1 single/s collaborations with many top artists. Such an amazing talent, nice to see her recognised as such, i bet she has trouble keeping her feet on the ground just now :)

A genuine talent indeed. Her performances at both the opening and closing Olympic Ceremonies were amazing.
Having seen and heard her being interviewed she is obviously very intelligent - I'm sure her feet will stay firmly planted on the ground ;)

It seems to me that most other young female singers only sell records on the back of the soft porn videos they make to accompany their tracks . . .

Was that an aircraft hanger she was recording/doing the video in?
