Finally a talent worth mentioning after some time. Another British export possessing heaps of talent much like Adele. She is signed to Virgin records and most people by now should be familiar with her debut single "Heaven" off her debut masterpiece off an album "Our Version of Events".
The album has already received critical and commercial success in the UK debuting at number 1 and being named the fastest selling album of the year. Not only is she a talented vocalist in her own right but she has also penned lyrics for some of the UK's biggest names including Susan Boyle and Leona Lewis.
In a recent interview she said the key to good song writing is "honesty" and "raw emotion" and these are exactly the words that describe her debut album. From start to finish the album is a stonewinner and each and every track is amazing in its own right. There are seldom albums that one can listen to without skipping the odd track along the way but "Our Version of Events" is certainly an exception. The stand out tracks include "Clown", "Hope" and "River". She possess the vocal ability that many of today's pop tarts lack but does not feel the need to belt out songs for the sake of it but opts rather to connect with the lyrics and deliver a truly refreshing and authentic performance.
I do not know about you guys but I am just about done with Adele's 21, which no doubt was epic, but its time to retire from its year long chart domination.
I am sure we can expect big things from Ms Sande in the future.
