Quite like 'Nothing But The Girl'. Almost feels like it would fit better on HOH though.

 

Good stuff MUST be coming now?? So much filler :lol:

Okay let me tell y'all this. I am utterly appalled at Between The Sheets only ending up at #16?!
Below What Happens On The Dancefloor out of all songs?! Y'all need Jesus Alexandra Christ, cause this ain't healthy!

Between The Sheets was easily the #1 track on Heartbreak On Hold and one of the songs that could've been used on Overcome.
It's just so good it makes me cry seeing this so criminally underrated.
Keep your eyes open at all times Aly, Aprila and I are coming for you!

Opening the top 15 is What Happens On The Dancefloor. A decent dancepop song with Cobra Starships.
I can't help but feel like this track was meant for their album, but they decided to cut it (rightfully) so Alexandra added it to her Deluxe Edition of Overcome,
where it blocked a good song from appearing on the album (Turbulence anyone?!).

Of course this is all theory, but I like thinking I'm right.

'What Happens On The Dancefloor' is a slight guilty pleasure, but I recognise its obvious shitness and it is pretty much them featuring her.

What Happens On The Dancefloor isn't great. Between the Sheets being so low is an absolute CRIME though.

WHAT!?!?

 

'Between The Sheets' is one of her very very best. Lead single material. SIXTEEN :angry: wanted nothing less than top 10 :(

We're now at that point where I don't condone anything less than a 5. Sadly, Regina, Josh, Aly decided to go against this with their hate against Hallelujah.
They're obviously jealous their faves could never pull this off, so I'm just calling this a modern day hate crime.
But to every downside, there's an upside (is that even right?) as Hallelujah gains massive support from the others. 12 10's make this the 13th song in this countdown.
Hallelujah was covered Alexandra on the live final of The X Factor UK in 2008 as her final performance. The song was released as her winner single and immediately broke the record for the fastest download in Europe, selling 105k copies in one day. It went on to sell 576.000 copies in its first week, totalling at 1.25 million as of 2013.
It debuted at #1 in the UK, ahead of Buckley's version at #2. Pressed Buckley fans thought it was a wise idea to start a campaign to prevent Slayandra from getting that #1. Their attempt obviously failed and all those coins were wasted. Poor them.

Ending at #14 is quite a surprising song for me. The Bruno Mars-penned Perfect stays slaying with an average of 7.65.
With nothing lower than a 5, this song has rushed past big competition, like Between The Sheets (weep), Good Night Good Monring (weep) and Turbulence (double weep).

However let's not discredit this song. It's quite amazing, altho nowhere near deserving that 14th place to me. I'd place it jsut outside her top 20.
Perfect was one of the tracks that got leaked by a few German interns at SyCo and ended up making the re-release of Overcome in a slightly reworked version, to the suprise of many fans, who expected Before It Explodes to be at least there.

What Happens On The Dancefloor isn't great. Between the Sheets being so low is an absolute CRIME though.

WHAT!?!?

 

'Between The Sheets' is one of her very very best. Lead single material. SIXTEEN :angry: wanted nothing less than top 10 :(

 

Drag ha for filth!

'What Happens On The Dancefloor' is a slight guilty pleasure, but I recognise its obvious shitness and it is pretty much them featuring her.

Cannot remember a thing about Perfect oops. Hallelujah is way too low though, still adore her cover of it, easily my favourite winning single from XF :wub:

To be fair to 'Hallelujah' it's not as bad as most of those X-Factor winners singles, I just really do not like any of them. They're like the lowest denominator of music.

I love Perfect :( the mid-tempo demo version that leaked well before the re-release (in fact didn't that leak before Bad Boys even?) is way better though.

 

 

And Hallelujah is just amazing, my fave XF winning single for sure.

Okay, so next up is the fabulous title track of Alexandra's 2nd album, Heartbreak On Hold, at #12.
It was widely tipped as THE next single, had the album not bombed as hard as it did. Alexandra herself even confirmed that the 3rd single was between HOH and Tonight. I'm glad she didn't go ahead with it as there's only so much fans can do.
Heartbreak On Hold is a great song, with great vocals from Ms. Burke, as well as one of the least cheap sounding of the whole album.
Despite this, it would've flopped horrifically if indeed released. However Alexandra did perform it once on G-A-Y, where it was received pretty good.
Joe and SceneofSixCrimes agree with this, resulting in a low score from both of them (I'm coming for you ass Scene), but others seemed to love it as much as I did (altho ranking it lower) as HOH received 6 10's.

Just missing out on the top 10 by 0.11, is Alexandra's Greek smash, Tonight. The song was never officially released as a single, but was a contender with Heartbreak On Hold, but I'm not entirely sure. Us Beasties did however discover that DJ Smash produced the song (or better said, Alexandra sampled his beat) and he made her sign a contract that obligated her to release the song. However she got out of that contract by giving Inna the rights to the song for her album.

Tonight was a multi-week #1 in Greece (Yes it really was). It spend multiple weeks at the top of their iTunes, as well as topping the Radio 1 Greece chart.
Flop album wot? Tonight spend over 4 months in Greece's top 10, as well as charting in Cyprus. Videos for Tonight gathered many views for a hit in Greece, with the top video gaining over 800.000 (How pathetic that this is a good thing for her these days oops)

While we wait for the top 10, let's appreciate Alexandra's powerhouse vocals on Queen Of The Nights :heart:

 

'Heartbreak on Hold' is my absolute JAM. Play it most nights i'm heading out to get me in the mood and it's an anthem.

 

Could have got my 11, very easily. #12 is about right for it though as i wasn't expecting it to get top 10 as much as it really deserves to.

 

TOOOONIIIGHT I'M DANCING ALLL ALONE <3333 Sleigh ME.

:o A song in the top 10 i haven't even heard :drama: flop stan. Apart from that, a wonderful top 10 (even if 'Dumb' should be replaced by 'Between The Sheets' or 'HOH').

Before It Explodes in the top 10 :o I love it though.

 

Only just seen Before The Rain at #19 :/ What. Her best ballad by far.

Omg. Who is this!? Or is it Tim being a shady to Joe? Lol.
