May 6, 201015 yr Author They did actually playlist it. That's incredibly strange... don't suppose you could copy and paste what that e-mail said by any chance? :lol: True, at the time Leona fans were just shocked it stayed C-list for like a month - something I'm sure Alex fans would happily take now lol. E-mail was posted on IGY thread :)
May 6, 201015 yr The annoying thing is that they basically decide how relevant an artist is, and dictate it. If they choose not to support an artist anymore their career quickly goes down the pan.
May 6, 201015 yr Author The annoying thing is that they basically decide how relevant an artist is, and dictate it. If they choose not to support an artist anymore their career quickly goes down the pan. Yup, based on this 'focus group' and their current playlist team. If more like Gab C and Alex can now get top 10 hits without needing their playlisting, hopefully their overall influence can be reduced.
May 6, 201015 yr Album version up to 13 now, looking likely it will go Top 10.Doing well on the pre-order charts to.Let Radio 1 playlist who they want Ellie Goulding, Guns and Horses, Owl City, Umbrella Beach, Gorillaz, Sugarfast Jellyfish and Drake and Over are all playlisted by Radio 1 and being released on the 17th May.Look where they are on itunes compared to how well Alex is doing.
May 6, 201015 yr Lottery performance - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HOrZRpIGT4 :) Edited May 6, 201015 yr by X gunners X
May 6, 201015 yr I think she could seriously be top 3, number 1 will obviously go to B.o.B. but she is way higher than other May 17 releases which are available now to download from the albums
May 6, 201015 yr I just died knowing she's going to tour next year :heart: -HOrZRpIGT4 Great performance. I believe she's already shaken off the "XFactor" tag. She looked like a world class performer. (Sorry for going OTT HAHA) But honestly, as good as Leona is, it's really hard not to associate her with XFactor. Whereas with Alex, I believe she's got rid of that tag. :wub: It's odd really as in my head I keep telling myself, Leona is my favourite Reality TV winner. But now, although I far prefer 'Echo' as an album, Alexandra's singles are by far my favourite and I like pretty much the most over anything on 'Echo'. Sorry for just rambling, I think I'm slowly turning into an AlexLoon! (She's 1 & 2 in my chart this week!)
May 6, 201015 yr She's touring next year?! :o :excite: I'm SO there. Don't worry Jonjo, I'm a bit of a AlexLoon as well now, I think I prefer her as a whole to Leona Lewis tbh. I adore her personality and all of her singles have been fantastic so far, there are some iffy songs on 'Overcome', but there was on 'Spirit' too. I think her second album will actually be much more successful and have better quality songs on it.
May 6, 201015 yr Alex is a fantastic performer and singer, for me she is the best to come out of x factor but i do love Leona :) i'm so there for the tour sooo excited. Cant wait for her performance on the Dutch x factor tomorrow, its going to be out of this world. :) Edited May 6, 201015 yr by X gunners X

May 6, 201015 yr Is there a live stream of the Dutch X-factor and do we know what song she will be performing. No i dont think so, not sure what song, should be All Night Long. :)
May 6, 201015 yr Loved the performance on the Lottery. I'm definitely going to get tickets for her tour next year. :D
May 7, 201015 yr Still at 5 on Irish itunes, charts at No 16 this week.Up to 12 on UK itunes and at 17 in the mid weeks.The album version is proving to be more popular than I thought it would be, does anyone know its sales so far.

This is why I believe she'll have 2 versions inside the Top 20 of iTunes and it's why the label were clever by making a single edit of the song.
May 7, 201015 yr It says on the website that Alex will be performing Bad Boys on the Dutch x factor tonight, WHY!! :(
May 7, 201015 yr Finally got round to listening to 'The Map' and it's stunning!! :o :wub: How didn't it make the album?!
May 7, 201015 yr she will be perform All Night Long in Switzerland - http://www.alexandraburkeofficial.com/gb/n...european_promo/

I'd imagine without? :unsure: They actually played 'Bad Boys' quite a bit on Radio 2. The Flo-Rida-less version though.
