Heather Small - Proud

[ollie44]

Yes, this hugely underrated song is being re-released in 2 weeks time to mark London being awarded the Olympic games in 2012. Proud has been used as the theme song to London's bid and has experienced an upsurge in popularity, hence the re-release.

Here is the original cover from 2000:



I was appalled when it only reached #16 first time round so this time, I want to see a Top 10 people!

[Toxic]

Cool this will be a good theme tune! she deserved top do better in the charts though!! :evil:

[Thriller]

It's practically been adopted by the nation hasn't it? It's used so often in sporting events, gay pride events and anything else where people are achieving something!

I've lost count over how many times it's appeared on the release schedule over the past few years for re-release Hope it goes ahead this time!

[CanYouKeepUp]

Wonder if it'll lead to a re-release of her album too...dunno if it would make sense just to re-release the single cuz the record company wouldn't make much from that. I suppose they'll see how the single goes...

[crazyman324]

I remember my mum loving the song, blasting it out in the car, and me being totaly embarrassed. Anyway, good song, hope it does ok.

[StevieFM]

I loved this song - even though i dont usually buy singles I will probably buy this just to support it & the whole london thing...

[Thriller]

My mum likes it too! She's never played it in the car though

It must be a mum song.

[crazyman324]

Well they believe our presentation was brilliant so thanks to Heather we got it (kinda).
This will hopefully do well. It's inspiring.

[cooltrigger]

I remember her singing it at those Pride Of Britain awards too.

Oh is that the ones with Carol Vorderman where little kids get awards for putting out the chip pan fire and calling 999 when their mum was stung by a bee etc?

[Skelofect]

I bought this when it was first out, dont really know why as I never listened to it.

I think my Mum should have it.

That pic of Heather on the cover looks like Makosi and Science's love child.

"You get me, you get me"

"I think I'm pregnant with your baby"
