Take a cute Aussie singer with an amazing voice and pair her with the masters of pop, production house Xenomania of Girls Aloud fame (and also boasting impressive work with Dannii Minogue and of course Cher's 'Believe' in the past too) and you have the perfect package.
Sweet About Me is a genuine gem of a track. Of course Gabriella Cilmi's soulful vocals will draw comparison with the likes of Amy Winehouse but that's really where any similarity ends. In terms of the music, despite being penned by Xenomania, aside from the feisty, flirty ambiguity of the lyrics, it doesn't bare much resemblance to their work with Girls Aloud either.
So, what we have here is something new, fresh, carefree ... Read More:

Just stumbled on Garbriella Cilmi on itunes and when I heard this song, it just made me want to ing along! Cilmi has a really good voice, strong, perhaps comparable to that of Duffy, but all the more original.
This is a great feel good song, and even without hearing any of her other material, I am contemplating buying her album.
Five Stars *Claps*

They call this singing??? I call it crap!!! I take it this woman isn`t used to alcohol...just wondering how much she had when she attempted to sing this, probably far too much of whatever. I suppose this actually sounds ok after a night of heavy drinking for anyone to listen to, or maybe dance to before collapsing after throwing up! This IS crap!!!

The fresh faced Oztralian was signed by Warner Brothers aged 13, and recorded this aged 15. Now, virtually past it at 16, Ms Cilmi is ready to take on the big, bad world of pop. With the help of Xenomania, purveyors of all things Girls Aloud.
Granted, they've lost the plot a bit over the last 18 months or so, but credit where it's due, they've had their finger in some of the finest pop songs of the last few years. This isn't that good, but it's certainly good enough. And if I'd only heard 'Sweet About Me', I'd probably be a lot happier.
Because her cover version of 'Echo Beach' by Martha & The Muffins (recorded for the UK TV show of the same name - Echo Beach that is, not Martha & The Muffins - although why no ... Read More:

Just to say this is easily the best new song I have heard this year-sensual,sublime and slightly quirky-not heard any other material by this young lady but this is fantastic!
