December 10, 201311 yr I'm so happy that Sara got the nomination for the album. I don't think she will win as I think Taylor, Bruno and Mucklemore have a bigger chance of winning because they are more popular - BUT it is a great honor that they even nominated her, I never expected that! However, this just proves that Grammy's don't take only sales into account. I hate that many said she doesn't deserve the nomination - just because the album hasn't sold millions doesn't mean it is bad. Many critics did praise the album and it is truly a great pop album - one of my favorites of the year. As for Best Vocal Solo performance, If she looses again't Perry I will be very disappointed as the song is almost a plagiarism of Brave, just with immature lyrics. Seriously, comparing that song with Brave - Roar sounds like nursery song, it is all about the rhyme. Brave deserves to win because of the great message it sends that touched many people - because of that I think she has a great chance of wining. If she looses to Bruno, Justin or Lorde, I won't mind, but Katy... That would be very bad.
June 3, 201411 yr I'm seeing Sara live right about now! Well whenever she comes on stage. I've waited my whole life (or 7 years) for this moment :o
June 3, 201411 yr Hope you enjoy it! This album is currently top 40 on iTunes for some reason, could it be due to the concert she had yesterday (and then tonight as well of course)?
June 3, 201411 yr Really stunning show, I actually hadn't realised what an amazing live vocal she'd have! The album is one of the best of the last few years for me, it really deserves more attention. Hearing the crowd sing along to the gorgeous Chasing The Sun was amazing, I thought I was the song's only big fan!
June 4, 201411 yr Review of the gig is up on my blog! http://poplovedance.blogspot.co.uk/2014/06...-islington.html
June 4, 201411 yr Review of the gig is up on my blog! http://poplovedance.blogspot.co.uk/2014/06...-islington.html Great review - I have to ask, has Sara sang a new song on the show. The reason I ask is - 1 fan posted a full audio from the show and I don't recognize the song starting at 42 minutes: https://soundcloud.com/emmahokken/sara-bare...-uk-2-june-2014 The melody sounds a lot like I Just Want You, but I don't recognize the lyrics... The quality is not very good so I could be mistaken, that is why I'm asking you :)

July 12, 201410 yr Sara started touring again - she performed a brilliant rendition of Sia's Chandelier. All I can say is, WOW! I like her version much more the the original. Don't get me wrong, Sia has a great voice but Chandelier is heavily influenced by dance music. Sara brought the soul in the song. Here is the video of the performance:
