It’s here! Fans of Nicola Roberts will be pleased to know that the complete version of her single ‘Beat Of My Drum‘ has just surfaced. It is the first single to be lifted from her debut album ‘Cinderella’s Eyes’.
Listen below…
With Cheryl Cole’s career now the laughing stock of critics from London to LA, there is no denying that Nicola’s work will be welcomed by many a Girls Aloud fan.
Though the Diplo produced release tries its best to make the most of the red head’s ‘petite’ vocals, there is no denying that singing is not Ms.Robert’s strong point.
However, the risk the starlet has taken with the undeniably MIA inspired track should be commended especially when considering the fact that Euro-pop dance tracks currently reign supreme on the UK charts. If ‘Drum’ is any indication of things to come on ‘Cinderella’s Eyes’ , supporters of the performer may be in for a surprisingly Pop forward treat.

*sips tea*
@KAT DELUNA FAN
No one is here for Kat Flopuna, including ThatFlopJuice
petite’ vocals
LMAO! Killing me!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyway, the song is basic childrens music and you know that she won’t be able to sing this live and make some of the shapes she was doing in the video.
Link removed already!
Beyoncé really pulled the short straw didn’t she? The production on this is INSANE! That drum break down is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>..
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! She’s hot too! With her s*** red hair! Is it sad that I love this, but I HATE Beyoncé’s new song?
UHM. EXCUSE THE HELL OUT OF YOU. YOU CAN WATCH ANY GIRLS ALOUD BALLAD PERFORMANCE ON YOUTUBE AND KNOW STRAIGHT AWAY THAT SINGING IS VERY MUCH A STONG POINT FOR NICOLA SO YOU CAN REALLY STFU ABOUT THAT.
THIS SONG IS AMAZING EVEN IF SHE’S NOT BELTING OUT ANY NOTES IN IT. DIPLO WENT ALL OUT FOR HER. <3
Lovin it!
@KAT DELUNA FAN, Kat, gurl we know that’s you! Give it up already.
L.O.V.E Dance to the beat of my drum! DANCE TO THE BEAT OF MY DRUM <3 <3 <3 <3
She has great vocals, the problem is that this song doesn’t showcases that.
Isn’t this an R&B blog?
Beyonce’s album is going 2 be a hit regardless of what anyone says about her current singles. Heck she hardly promoted her 1st single, but i’m positive she’ll be going hard promotion wise with best thing i never had. Nicola is fairly ok
Sorry but this is garbage.
Parts of it does remind you of “Rtw”.
L.O.V.E Dance to the beat of my drum! DANCE TO THE BEAT OF MY DRUM <3 <3 <3 <3 How Can You Not LOVE this song?? Its so awesome!
Sam i’m not sure if you remember nicola’s popstars audition but behind nadine, she has one of the strongest voices in the band. Granted a powerhouse vocalist she is not, she actually has a really soulful voice.
This song does NOTHING to show off that voice – however the song is catchy as HELL LOL.
She favors Gaga somewhat as well.
OMG! I hate to comment one more time, but THIS SONG IS SO HOTT! I don’t know if its because I’m from the US, and we just aren’t used to this sort of music, but this s*** right here. . . KNOCKS MY SPEAKERS!
Hey Queens. Don’t make this post about Beyonce.
Thanks
never heard of her…:/…who is she???
…Best Buy went Bankrupt so they working with Apple to give away these $1,000 giftcards for ANYTHING Apple at their store!! I use 2 emails & got 2..lol http://goo.gl/CPe0B
I don’t remember these “soulful” Vocals she showed in her audition. None the less they’re not apparant now, nor have they been during any of the Girls Aloud singles/Albums. Please somebody put up a link so i can see soul.
This still isn’t cutting it!
I LOVE IT!
there’s a B-side to this single which is a ballad that showcases her vocals better, the girl defiantly can sing.
this song right here is the best pop single of 2011 so far! YES I SAID IT and I mean it.
it’s so catchy and different from what’s out right no.
can’t stop playing it, good job Nicola!
OMG THAT DRUM BREAK JUST SLAYED ME OMG!
MS NICOLA BETTA SNATCH THOSE WIGS!!!!
IT SOUNDS LIKE A TWO YEAR OLD! THE VIDEO IS GOING TO BE WIERD WITH A BIG WOMAN MIMING THIS! O_o.
PLUS She would probably of done a ‘FIGHT FOR THIS LOVE’ SONG BUT DID’NT TO TRY NOT BE COMPARED TO CHERYL!!
THE PRODUCTION IS INCREDIBLE THOUGH!
I HAVE A FEELING THE VIDEO WILL BE PURPOSELY WIERD JUST TO BE DIFFERENT TO CHERY AND THE OTHER GIRLS!! Grrrr..
THIS SONG IS AMAZING! I am really impressed by Nicola. I should hate this but it’s so catchy. I really hope she does well.
Obvisously it sounds like RTW they were both produced by Diplo but i really liked this it was very current and dancey but its still very edgy and diffrent to. I hope she promotes this well as i think it could do really well. Although i hope the whole album isnt this one sound as she actually does have a really good and not in any way a “petite” voice she is considered as girls aloud’s second best singer so do your research sam.
QUEEN B ALL THE WAY!!!! RIRI AND KATY PERRY ALSO. Not so soft on Lady ‘disgusting’ GaGa
I like it! I did for a minute think ” hey,this is kind of like RTW” before i read it was the same producer. Go Nicola! I think shes a girls aloud member that can actually sing unlike Cole. She doesnt have incredible range or anything but she has a cute voice for pop. whatever.
Love the chorus – very catchy
beat is banging! not a fan of the singing, though!
She always be the ugly one from Girls Aloud. Nadine Coyle’s album is great and I hope she’ll make a right single choice for US market.
I think the song is great. The video teasers she has released look good too and the extended preview of B-side track ‘Porcelain Heart’ sounds amazing.
Check out my article for the track on my blog.

ID PREFER IF BEYONCE HAD THIS RECORD … instead of nicola.. beyonce’s voice would destroy this
Nicola has an amazing voice! This just isn’t a song that calls for her to “belt” it out. Obviously, you’ve never seen her perform live.
SOOO good. I’m so impressed by Nicola! This is like a M.I.A song mixed with classic Girls Aloud!
Um, Cheryl’s career isn’t a laughing stock. Her being treated horrendously by SyCo and Fox hardly a reflection on her being the top selling female British artist of 2010 for example.
So let’s no exaggerrate. Obviously the US show has been a disaster, but not in the way you’re trying to portray.
