Moments ago, ‘Bad Boys’ belter Alexandra Burke premiered her new single ‘Elephant’ live at London’s Shepherds Bush Empire.
Watch her showcase the cut at the ‘Tickled Pink’ breast cancer support gig below…
Fire!
We’ll hold full judgement until the studio version hits radio next week. You, on the other hand…
Your thoughts?

It’s underwhelming. I love the 90′s sound to it but it’s not as good as the remix IMO.

I agree with Mike. A mix of the two would be best. Great soaring vocals and a heavy beat.

XEDOS-its a phrase – an elephant in the room is something obvious but you dont want to talk about it as its awkward but not speaking about it is even more awkward. Apparently its an amerian phrase, which Alex picked up on as she was at writing camps whilst writing on this album, where there were many americans. Thats right – she’s a co-writer and is the executive producer of this new album!! Lets hope her label give her big budgets, Beyonce gets them (even though she could pay for everything herself, which Alex obviously can’t) so mini Beyonce should get big budgets and great outfits and big tours too! Anyone go to her All night long tour last year?? She brought that FIYAH! She was so damn good!

I hate to admit it but it’s really good (damn). Better than all the other cheesy stuff she’s being doing.
I for the first time, can see Alexandra being on my ipod.

It sounds alright, but I want to hear the full version. Who is responsible for the image of her at the top of the post? It looks messy.

The top photo was for Wonderland they always do dark and brooding shoots.Alex has ticked all the boxes with Elephant it is a sure fire hit, she performs the hell out of it and her sound has moved on-NO 1.

Popsicles Leona has not had a No 1 or a good single in 3 years. She is done and over with how far did Hurts drop from 8 to 60 ouch.
