I've listened to this three times since Friday and I'm really loving it.

I've been waiting a long time for an album from Grace and it didn't disappoint.

Has she had much promo? I was completely unaware until I saw this post but I wondered how she was reaching people.

Only thing I’ve seen is Grace mentioning it on her socials.

Have to get this myself. Its release bypassed me.

I really wish she was bigger post X Factor in 2017 as she had some great originals she performed on the show.

My tip,5 would probably be:

1. Another Night

2. Look How You've Grown

3. Do Or Die

4. Youngest That I'll Ever Be

5. MDE

Now might be a good time to make your BJSC debut! @Paddington James 😉

You will need to start off by making a post in this thread and then when the next window opens soon you will be ready! :)

Grace has got 10 BJSC confirmations already in the bag I fear.

I loved this album and ordered the CD from her site. Super Love Me, MDE and Another Night are all quality singles but there are some great album tracks too. Hotel Delilah is quite something.

Been listening to this a lot over the week and it really is an amazing album. God knows how this is her only just releasing her debut. They fumbled her massively following The X Factor. Putting all of their eggs into Rak-Su's basket and look where that ended up... kind of intriguing that making a success story out of a young female artist seemed a concept lost on them after Leona and Alexandra. Took some time before we eventually got Chapter One from Ella Henderson then kaput with her too.

At least Grace is where she wants and needs to be now and we've ended up with this

It took time but it was worth it although its a huge shame she has never had that mainstream success she deserves, there was huge interest in her songs on the show which was reflected in her itunes success but sadly everything was handled wrong. I really do think with how things turned out she would be the perfect candidate for Eurovision and it would once again give her a platform.

Really loving this album, song great songs!

I had no idea she was on X Factor either 😂

I love Too Young. I wish Grace would release a studio version of it.

Too Young is my absolute fave from her, i still listen to the live version regularly.

I saw Grace live last night and she was so brilliant. She basically played this album in full along with a bit of Roots acoustic and another older track. She performed an amazing encore of Hotel Delilah, a medley of I Feel Love/Can't Get You Out Of My Head/Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight) and then of course ended with Super Love Me, which was so epic to hear live. That song seriously deserved to be a hit.

She was also so funny, I loved her humour and crowd interaction, and MDE was one of the funniest live performances I've seen in some time (the lyrics are hilarious, I loved it from first listen last year).

I always forget how much I loved her on X Factor, I checked my iTunes and have purchased downloads on there of several of her live performances, Too Young was a particularly strong one from that time. She deserves to be a much bigger star.

Wonderful to hear you had a great time Rich!

It's such a great album, I need to go back an re-listen to it soon.
