Alexandra Burke - The Silence speaks volumes

It's no secret that I like Alexandra Burke alot, so when I protested last month that 'Start Without You' was being released before 'The Silence' I may have been a bit premature, as Alexandra returns with the video fresh off her number one success with 'Start Without You.' I have always wanted this song to be released and believe as ballads go, this is a corker. The video is easily her best yet, the image is right and the video makes Alexandra look like she is a singer in her own right, this is why she won the X-Factor in 08.

She has the vocal ability and the versatility to go all the way. She has done very well since winning the X-Factor and is clawing her way up to becoming one of the huge success stories from the show. I for one am glad she has decided to release this single, as she needed to do something different from the fast paced music that she is also a dab hand at. With the album, 'Overcome' Alexandra has nearly released more songs than Leona Lewis has in the 4 years since she won the X-Factor.. looks like Miss Lewis better get back out there!

due to copyright I can't get the video on here yet.

Alexandra Burke has got to number one in the UK with Hallelujah, Bad Boys featuring Flo-Rida & Start Without You. As well as 2 other top ten hits with Broken Heels and All Night Long featuring Pitbull, and having worked with Red One on Broken Heels, Start Without you and The Silence she is fast becoming one of the UK's biggest female singers.

  1. Leona released 5 singles from her first album, same as Alex.

    Not bad from a 10x platinum album.

  2. It was not negative, I love Leona Lewis. But both have re-released albums etc. To boost sales, it would be good if they just released the album and finished it naturally. Then release a new one with new songs on it.
