Such a good album after just a couple of listens! I'd say as an album, I prefer it to both of Cheryl and Nadine's sets, but I think Cheryl definitely chose better singles than Nicola has so far. My favourite track is 'i' - I love how completely different to the rest of the album it is, yet it's still full of her personality. 'Gladiator' is also very good; it reminds me of another song, but I can't remember what at this moment. I'd list the rest that I think are very good, but that takes up the majority of the album! I'll do a proper rate after a couple more listens :)

Definitely buying it this week!

I met her today :wub:

 

And went to G-A-Y on the weekend to see her. So really I've had a Nicola-fested weekend.

Currently #20 on Itunes album chart :)

and now No.11! :w00t: :w00t: :w00t:

I'm so obsessed with the (I think it's a middle 8) of "Yo-Yo".

Did the new gnashers look good?

Judge for yourself:

Stealing Mikey's lines! :o

 

Anyway, the album is absolutely incredible. Cole has got NOTHING on it.

 

'I' is probably my favourite so far. "I don't like people that leave comments on the internet, they preach they're perfect while they're killing you with intellect". <3

#11 in the first set of midweeks! :D

Buzzing with that! Would be AMAZING if it climbed in the top 10. But I'm more than happy with anywhere in the Top 20 :D

My album still hasn't been delivered :( Trust it to come tomorrow when I'll be at work the entire day!

Delighted with its first mid week position, i know it will probably drop throughout the week but i think top 30 will be its very lowest now, im delighted its charting for her, lets hope she promo;s like hell this week to keep the album selling.

You know what, this album is f***ing amazing. One of my fav albums of the year easily. Its annoys me that Cheryl can drop an albums and it sells, yet Nicola comes out with amazing songs and singles and get ignored. Team Ginge all the way.

Nicola's album is basically better than 95% of the top 100, so there is no obvious need to compare it to Cheryl. Both could be successful in their own way, especially since their music is SO different.

Plus they're like best friends and I'm sure Cheryl would be more than happy to share her sales numbers with Nicola :lol:

You only reason why I compared them is becuase they are both from the same group and have both released solo albums so obv people will compare them.

#8 on Itunes now. Climbed slightly. Glad its sticking well.

The 'all of the things you're saying, I'm hanging on your every word' part? If so, SAME! It really makes the song for me, if it wasn't brilliant enough already.

I'm aware this rate looks a bit loony (?) but my GOD this album is so good, definitely one of the best albums this year, if not THE best (imo of course).

'I' is still growing one me - I feel like I should love it but I don't quite yet. 'Fish Out of Water' is the better of the two Joseph Mount productions imo.
