As X Factor “moments” go, few can rival Fleur East’s breakout performance of ‘Uptown Funk.’ Smartly, then, she has cooked up her own take on the sound with the deliciously addictive ’Sax.’

Big, booming, and busy, the Electric cut (which was co-written by East) features funkified production and ample swagger to match.

Touted as a huge break-out hit, set off the explosive track after the jump…

Factually speaking, Adele has already “won” with the new album ’25’ – this, despite the LP being two weeks from its release.

Breaking pre-order records left and right, the ‘Hello’ led project is already tipped to deliver the biggest sales of the decade.

And still, no promotional stone is being left unturned. The British songstress is embarking on a media flood, one that will see her hit major stages both home and away – the latter of which will include stints on SNL and her own NBC holiday special.

First, though, will be a one-hour UK special – ‘Adele at the BBC’ – which’ll air November 20th…the day ’25’ arrives worldwide.

The chart titan will deliver tracks from the new album, as well as from predecessors ’19’ and ’21.’ Naturally, ‘Hello’ is one of said songs performed and, tonight, the BBC aired a preview on The One Show.

How does the hyper-hit sound live? You be the judge below…
