Loving your style and sound. Can't wait for your album. I wasn't a GA hater but wasn't a fan. I AM a fan of yours. ESP after reading your feature in the Guardian today. Very fly.
I've bought the Beat of My Drum Single from Irish Itunes, but didn't receive this as a bonus track :( how can I get it cos I actually prefer it to Beat of My Drum, & apparently this is the last date you can buy Porcelain Heart...
this song is actually pretty good, its just a shame her other songs are pretty rubbish to be honest, i expected alot more than what she delivered in the end
i had a conersation with my boyfriend the other day about who of GA wwas better, He said cheryl of course and i tried to prove my point of nicola and failed, but she is so going to prove him wrong herself, I love her and her new single! she is one of the best, Nadine has an amazing voice but i think she wont be a big favorite compared to nicola, There both gorgeous girls and i hope they get the credit they deserve!
Nadine didn't get the promote that she should have! Hope Nicola, the second best singer of the group to Nadine, will not face the same faith! Cheryl... is too overrated! JUSTICE!!!
@TeamSatsChannel how is cheryl a chav? really she was born on a council estate big deal its what shes acomplished in life that matters.... shes an idol to every young women in the country maybe the world how you can become famous when your from such a loosey background... now please gtfo causing arguements both nicola and cheryl and the others have their own unique sound its why GA are the best girl band in the history of the UK...
Can't wait for the album always felt that nicola was more unique and talented then the other members of GA, so far the sound of the music is so cool and unique, not like cherly cole music
I'm actually going to set up my itunes and pay to download her first singles...will be the first time I've paid and downloaded legal music lol...you better be grateful Nicola and work it out and be HUGE!
I loveeee the part when this clip ends where its all like "oh oh oh ohh oh oh ohhh ohh" it sounds soo good. Just as I get into it, it ends ): Oh well, we'll have the full version this weekend (:
Holy shit Nicola! She's always been my favorite member of Girls Aloud, and Ive always loved her voice, but this song is SOOO good! I like it better than the actual Beat of My Drum single! Wish this was the single!
Man I love this girl so much prefered her to anyone else in Girls Aloud could tell she had a better voice than the others from the start but most of the time she was in the background being a backup vocalist
When I heard this was a pre order exclusive I quickly made sure to do just that. Now I just have to avoid buying anything else on iTunes until I get it.
@TeamSatsChannel A The Saturdays fan who dares talking about singing abilities yeah right! Do you even watch their live performances? Watch Girls Aloud live performances you'll see the difference.
@samouha10 Okay, that's kind of a cheap shot. The Saturdays debuted barely 3-4 years ago, while Girls Aloud debuted like 9 years ago! The Saturdays have great vocalists!
@samouha10 Bitch pleassee, do not even attempt to compare girls aloud live to the saturdays live. You don't need to compare far. just compare their live lounges. Even the saturdays first live lounge cover beggin in 2008 was better than girl aloud's most recent live lounge.
@samouha10 Don't even go there! The Saturdays are amazing live and so are GA. I Love The Saturdays far more than Girls Aloud but you can't deny that both bands have a lot of talent. TeamSatsChannel does have a point though, Cheryl isn't a very good singer - thats why she NEVER sings live. Personally i think The Saturdays live performances are better then GA, thats my opinion - but samouha10 don't go running your mouth about The Saturdays when its obviously not true.
@djdiu 'Sorry mate' but what you just said is an opinion and not a fact. The Saturdays using play back is not a big deal, no one paid for the concerts in which they lip sank and it was purely for promotion so record companies make them lip sync. I think The Saturdays are better, if you listen to their live lounge stuff and the AOL sessions you see they are amazing. The Saturdays's harmonies are more prominent in their performances unlike in GA each girl gets their own bit and sing few harmonies.
@Lisledl sorry for calling you mate, SIR/MADAM, but that was just my opinion. I didn't say that you have to share it. You're a sats fan, you like them more, obviously. So you're not being objective, just like me. I'm a GA fan since 2002 and that's it. I tried to like the sats, but their second album bored me.
@samouha10 I'm fairly neutral about this, but I have seen the Saturdays live (as part of a group thing) and they sounded fine to me. Actually i think Vanessa's an amazing singer. Not trying to be contrary...
I can't stop listening to this. I swear I've heard this 100+ times now. It sounds so much better than Beat Of My Drum. This should have been the lead single!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i knew it! i knew it!!! i can not express how happy and proud i am for nicola!!! i mean ive been waiting for nicola to do her thing since '03!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my fave girl is kicking ass and taking names!
i think they should all go back to girls aloud, if nadine couldnt make it as a solo artist i dont think any of them will :S except cheryl who had the x factor 2 promote herself
@GirlsAloudGeek BOFM will work well in clubs and allowing one to dance along in their room.
Porcelain Heart is a strong single, but it's like a song one puts on their stereo/ laptop/ Ipod etc when they are feeling down, not so much to get down.
Already got a signed albumn on pre order. Nicola has always been my fave member of GA, I like her look, I love her voice, our Nicola is all grown up. :)
@ukkeegan Why the fuck do you people always have to bring Cheryl in everything?! Nic and Chezza are different people, different music leave Cheryl the fuck alone! And stop creating a competition between the Girls.
@samouha10 Thank you. There is no need to keep bringing Cheryl into every video of a former Girls Aloud member. It's ridiculous.
Besides, they're totally different styles of song. Cheryl's releases cannot be compared to Nadine's music and from the sounds of it neither can be compared to Nicola's as they are Nothing Alike.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to hearing more of Nicola's material and fingers crossed it will all be as good as the previews! :)
I think Nicola will surprise us all & do exceptionally well with this new album. She's taken the time to put her stamp on it, unlike Cheryl & her second album, and her hard work will pay off.
Sounds much better than the single she released.
