Nicola Roberts - Cinderella's Eyes

[alxx]

"Gladiator" contains the most fiercest lyrics! "If my balls of steel have got stuck halfway down your pipe, i've got some KY.. time to open, open, open wide!" [/size]

I didn't realise she said that
Has anyone got their copy yet? And if so does the booklet have the lyrics in it?

I'm loving Take A Bite at the moment, brilliant album!

I swear Nicola is the most underrated artist in the UK. This album is #1 material imo.

[Benjamin]

I haven't heard this album yet, but I have ordered it I love both 'Beat of My Drum' and 'Lucky Day', so I'm excited to hear this record in full.

[alxx]

My copy arrived this morning! The artwork is amazing! Like seriously, wow and I'm glad the booklet has all the lyrics in it as well.

I think this may be my favourite album of the year so far.

[HBIC]

at Bad Girl giving Yo-Yo the lowest ranking, that's my fave!

[Colin]

The album is AMAZING in full. I feel like crying I'm that proud, just like a proud parent.

I couldn't give a F%#* if this charts at #736. The material on the album is some of the best and most unique material I have heard in SO long, and it's even better knowing that she wrote it all by herself.

...A Nic stan till the day I die. <3 Nuhdeen and Cherly could nevah.

[king_oxymoron]

It's not on iTunes, or wasn't, apparently.

And not in my HMV which is Westfield :S

[lenor]

listening to the snippets on itunes now....really liking what im hearing so far!!! love both the singles too! shame the album isnt even in the top 200 on itunes despite a front page ad! wtf!

im gonna buy it for sure now, gotta support #TeamGinge

[BadGirl]

at Bad Girl giving Yo-Yo the lowest ranking, that's my fave!

It's not bad, i just find it too much safe and poppy (same as Lucky Day and Take A Bit) compared to the rest of the album. I prefer her most experimental tracks.

[Mikerocha]

Say It Out Loud is slowly becoming my favorite song

[Yoshimo]

THIS. IS. AMAZING.

Preach it!

[Blondini]

It's not on iTunes, or wasn't, apparently.

It was listed as a Partial Album. Wasn't a Buy button for it. It was absent from album chart but has now appeared in the top 40.

Beat Of My Drum

Ting Tings and then some.

Lucky Day

Sadly one of her only weak songs.

Yo-Yo

It sounds a bit sixties - Saint Etienne-ish but stronger chorus. Lovely.

Cinderella's Eyes

Marina meets Pet Shop Boys amazingness!

Porcelain Heart

Dramatic disco and BIG vocal, of course.

I

This is measured, cool and a bit sinister - sounds like arty synth legends Japan. Or Ladytron for a more modern relative.

Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime

Not essential - and her wavering voice is ever so slightly irritating. Production saves it. Coming after the brave I it's a bit of a misfire.

Say It Out Loud

And the bouncy, Ladyhawke/ Goldfrapp song! Would be a good single, i think though reviews don't seem to agree.

Gladiator

Tough semi-industrial bosh-pop! The much celebrated quote is a winner!

Fish Out Of Water

Like i said before, a mainstream artist making music this wonderfully alien-sounding is a joy to behold. The keyboard melody is hypnotic. This is the track that makes one think of Siobhan at her most out there.

Take A Bite

Nuts! More bosh-pop! Who are The Invisible Men? They should release their own album!

Sticks and Stones

Diana Vickers-ish sweet ballad with a brittle but courageous heart.


The album is getting unanimously great reviews - from 3 to 5 stars with 4 being the average. Would be great if she just built up a following from the rock fans, she could go on Jools Holland with these songs. I wouldn't be surprised if she got a Mercury nod, even. If only Lucky Day and Got To Learn weren't on it, it would be a perfect album.

4/5.

[Brad]

I'm the only one who loves Everybody's Got To Learn Sometime? It's one of my favourites.

[alxx]

Can't get enough of Take A Bite!

[GRM]

Can't get enough of Take A Bite!

[Mikerocha]

Top 15 Midweeks Nuhdeen could nevah!

C'mon Naculerrrrrrr!!!!!!!!

[topopMAC1]

Top 15 in the midweeks!

I'm really enjoying the album, it's very, very good!

[cristy]

Top 15 Midweeks Nuhdeen could nevah!

C'mon Naculerrrrrrr!!!!!!!!

Great news. I hope it's not too frontloaded and that it keeps up trough the week.

[topopMAC1]

Apparently she's #11! Not bad at all. Would love her to get a top 20 album.

[Mikerocha]

Take A Bite
Nuts! More bosh-pop! Who are The Invisible Men? They should release their own album!

They produced most of Gabriella Cilmi's 2010 album "Ten"... tracks like On A Mission, Superhot and Robots. It was one of my favorite albums last year.

[Mikerocha]

Apparently she's #11! Not bad at all. Would love her to get a top 20 album.

If she could handle staying Top 15 until Sunday that would be amazing

And now finally the iTunes problem was fixed so she may get more sales
