Ouch.


Oh god such a good song doesn't deserve to potentially miss the Top 30

She performed an acoustic version on Loose Women today (it was beautiful) I hope that helps stabilise it a bit.

I'm worried about the album though :(

There's an acoustic version on the digital deluxe version of the album, it sounds wonderful from the previews.

Such a shame it's flopping, it's so much better than Elephant and one of her best singles so far.

Midweek #23 today. Ouch!

Reminds me of Rachel Stevens. First single from album in the Top 3, while the follow up unexpectedly misses the Top 20.

I was lucky to be at the Alexandra Burke playback at Sony HQ this evening. Alexandra showed up halfway through the album being played at greeted us all individually and signed autographs and took pictures with us all. She was really lovely. The album itself - I really liked what I heard. I'd say she has at least 2 more singles that could be great summer anthems.

The album is out in Ireland, and leaked (not in HQ so far, I think).

All the songs are in the same vein, and almost sound a bit samey, but they're so good that it's not a problem.

Great album for the whole summer. Sincerely great.
I'm impressed. Can't stop praising the album.

Love the album one of my faves of 2012 if not my fave so far. So many great potential singles too I hope she gets to release a 3rd single.

I especially like "What Money Can't Buy" as Alexandra spoke about how personal that was to her.

Just finished listening to the album and I really enjoyed! Had a lot of great songs that could be singles, a great album especially since it is the beginning of Summer. A perfect summer album

All I can hope is that makes her reevaluate her decision to go with generic-sounding dance pop.

Album might still do ok. The sales aren't exactly huge at the moment. 10,500 is required for Top 10 on albums. 18,100 for Top 5.

Wouldn't expect a high mid-week since album is around the 40's area Itunes

I gave the album a quick spin last night, some good songs but it's completely faceless.

Not as low as I thought it could be, but its still got the other half of the week, I think if she did some more promo for it it could maybe help the album
