Jennifer Hudson on The Graham Norton Show

Not long finished watching US singer, and The Voice UK coach/star, Jennifer Hudson perform her latest single Remember Me on The Graham Norton Show. It doesn’t sound all that bad, bit of a slow starter if I’m being honest, but non-the-less her voice sounds good. It does pick up some pace after about 20 seconds thereabouts. Can’t say I was impressed to be honest but credit where it’s due she has got a really good voice full of soul and she does hit the high-note. Nice touch with the violins in the background.

Take That on The Graham Norton Show

So, after a small-ish sort of absence he’s back and he’s got Take That on the show performing their new single Wonderland. I think this must be the first time they’ve performed since Jason Orange left leaving them as a threesome. In all fairness Wonderland’s actually quite a good song and it’s gripping from the word go. Gary Barlow’s voice practically knows no bound. The line ‘Music Makes Me Feel Good’ just goes round and round your head, it’s quite catchy. Nice song lads. And as always these guys know how to engage their audience.

B.J and The Chicago Kid on the radio

Listening to another as yet amazing R&B record on the radio, Radio 1 to be precise, and what a tune. It’s called Angels/Your Love and the guys’ voice on this song is both soothing and melodic and just seem to cut straight through and is on the Hottest Records on 1Xtra at the moment. If you ever get the chance check it out, it’s worth a listen. Once again America I thank you for some get music

 

THEY on the radio

Just caught a new track on the radio, literally a moment ago. It’s called Truth Be Told by American R&B duo Dante Jones and Drew Love, also know as They. All I can say it that it sounded amazing, and I’d definitely listen again. Once again America I salute you for giving us another great new band/duo of beautiful taste. The Truth Be Told is on their debut album Nu Religion: Hyena. Should be in the Top Ten at least.
