9 years It's my least favourite of her albums unfortunately but still a solid debut from her. She seems very comfortable with the sound on the album. |

9 years I associate this era with taking my GCSEs as I was listening to 'The Way' a lot during that time, it really does fly.
It's also my least favourite album of hers - a cute debut and definitely more 'her' than the 'Put Your Hearts Up' sound, but much better was to come. 'Piano', 'Baby I' and 'Honeymoon Avenue' are probably my top 3 nowadays! |

Wow! 9 years... i don't know if it's because the highs of 'Honeymoon Avenue' and 'Daydreamin' are so high but i honestly still believe this is her best album.
i remember when it came out in 2013 and i was trying to get all my friends on board with 'The Way' and they HATED it. I had 4 tickets to a tiny Leicester Square show and had to go by myself as noone wanted to come... how things changed the following year but i'll never forget that fond memory. one memory i have is being with Colleen Balinger (Miranda Sings) in Freedom Bar - she was doing a London residency and asked me to join her at Freedom after the show and we danced and gushed about 'Your Truly' as she was a huge fan. |

Maybe an anniversary addition with unreleased tracks would be more than I could ask for. Seems to be a bit of music industry cliché at the moment.

Something's coming! Are we getting live performances a la her VEVO show for positions a few years ago maybe? She still had some Yours Truly moments as recently as her latest tour, including a rendition of 'Tattooed Heart' under the moon when I saw her. Also - 'Right There' has now turned 10 years old. Maybe an anniversary addition with unreleased tracks would be more than I could ask for. Seems to be a bit of music industry cliché at the moment. That would be interesting, I think 'Pink Champagne' is the Yours Truly unreleased track I'm most familiar with, I wonder how much is behind the vault |

I still prefer this as a whole album to My Everything (and maybe even positions too).
She sounds so comfortable and it feels really natural too. With My Everything that really felt heavily like a label influenced album getting the best writers and producers to write and create an album made for radio / playlists where as this feels like a lovely introduction to one of the best vocalists in the game. I feel intrigued at wondering how this may have performed outside the US had this been the follow up and My Everything been the debut. |

Yeah it did feel like an authentic launchpad for her following the artistic mis-step of 'Put Your Hearts Up'. That's an interesting thought. Perhaps a sophomore slump? It's an enjoyable album but My Everything is packed with obvious commercial hits whereas this one not quite so much - although I assume a switch around would've at least ensured that 'The Way' was a top 40 hit here - so close She definitely seems to be dedicated to this 10 year anniversary project, looking forward to it: |

Tattooed Heart was the single that never was from this album!
I think I’ll delve into this on my commute to work tomorrow it’s been a while since I listened it as a whole but it really is quite mature for a debut artist and a young artist too! Hopefully the anniversary and the live performances can help the album have a resurgence it’s quite underrated in the UK compared to the rest of her catalogue - although at the time I was surprised that she managed to get a top ten album with this at the time of its release. |

They can't be serious with that album cover! I don't even mind it being a still from the video, the fact it's such an unflattering photo and so blurred!
