I can't say this prospect hugely excites me, 3 Words had three decent songs (Fight For This Love, Rain On Me, Stand Up) and Messy Little Raindrops had one (Yeah Yeah).
For such a high profile star, she sure gets loads of awful songs that sound like cheap handed down demos that nobody wanted. I do hope they finally correct this for the third album... |

3 Words was pretty solid, but I have to agree with MLR. I've never really connected to it very well. I've probably actually played Insatiable more since the dust settled so to speak. How The FLood got a release ahead of Yeah Yeah will forever puzzle me!

I actually preferred MLR I must be one of the only ones then. I thought it was far more consistant and showed some great development in Cheryl's vocals (Haters don't even bother responding to that point
 ) Happy Tears was amazing and should have seen a release.

MLR is deffo better, the only song I really dislike is Live Tonight, whereas on 3 Words Heaven and Make Me Cry were both awful. Plus MLR has the amazingness of Promise This, The Flood, Waiting, Yeah Yeah and Happy Tears, do that wins

'Messy Little Raindrops' was pretty crap, if I'm being honest. There were about four good songs on it, and I was majorly disappointed at the lack of direction for it. '3 Words' is pretty consistent throughout, with many more highlights.

QUOTE(Matt Aloud @ Mar 19 2011, 07:46 PM)  Maybe a deluxe MLR with 8 new tracks ala Fame Monster maybe, with a smiliar thing for the US of A depending on the X Factor. Be the first one I won't be behind the counter to sell   Well let's erase the past 4 months  I left Bauer Media's Cash For Kids (great experience, just didn't work out for me, still love the charity though), and have returned to hmv  Bring on Cheryl #3 and Nicola

The problem with both albums is how they were clearly rushed. "3 Words" moreso, whilst "Messy Little Raindrops" seems like other peoples leftovers.

I'm so glad someone finally agrees. The majority of them sound so cheap and rush produced, and like other people's leftover demos slightly polished up. |

Both albums reek of laziness and Cheryl just singing over somebody's reject demo - especially her second album. Having said that, there are at least five songs on each album I really like, but she is capable of far better (and if she isn't, the team behind her certainly are.) |

The second album is deffo leftovers. |

3 Words was by no means a great album, but was well produced had great singles. Some fillers, but the fillers weren't bad per se.
Messy Little Raindrops on the other hand was a lazy follow up with approx only one very good song (Promise This). Rest sounded like demos, leftovers or were just bland. I connected with some songs (Promise This, The Flood, Yeah Yeah Yeah, Raindrops, Hummingbird) but all the songs except the first two mentioned I can't listen to anymore because they're so outdated already. I love Cheryl, but her solo albums have been pretty much under expectations! So hopefully the third one will make her credible once again (if she even can become credible again) |

QUOTE Cheryl Cole is set to collaborate with French producer David Guetta as her manager will.i.am attempts to make her a huge star in the US. Cheryl Cole is set to collaborate with David Guetta. The British singer wants to become a star in the US so her manager, Black Eyed Peas star will.i.am, has arranged for her to work with the French super producer on new material. A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Cheryl will be a top solo star in the US is will.i.am has anything to do with it. The man is so well connected and he sleeps, breathes and eats music. "He has a studio at home in which he is trying out new sounds for Cheryl. He wants the best and is very picky. David is an old friend and has produced some of the best dance anthems of the past few years, so it's a good place to start." David - who has created tracks for the likes of Rihanna, Madonna, Snoop Dogg and Blacked Eyed Peas - recently revealed he had made a song he was giving to will.i.am for him to use for one of his artists. He said: I made a song the other day and it was such a good fit for him and his artists. We're always in touch." Cheryl has been working on new tracks in Los Angeles, although she has vowed her third studio album won't be released until her team feel it is perfect. I'm quite intrigued by this, hopefully it's a good song (as David tends to give his best tracks to the ladies; 'Titanium', 'When Love Takes Over'), so if it works, then it will be great! This is the first time I've actually been looking forward to the third album, I seriously hope it doesn't disappoint. |

Should be great, as Theo said, his best songs are usually given to the ladies so hopefully the same is true for Cheryl!

Sounds like we could be waiting a while for the album which is no bad thing. At least Nicola can help fill any wait
