Due to total lack of official news from the record company about Andrea's upcoming solo debut, currently going under the name "Present", it is fair to suspect that the album is being delayed and not released this autumn after all.
According to the head of press at RNP, the out of house press group for Andrea at Atlantic UK, the album is not on his schedule for the rest of the year. According to him it is therefore likely being released in beginning of next year.
This information is further supported by the media company Stylorouge who is in charge of the EPK (Electronic Press Kit), and claim that they still have not recieved any deadline or release date from Atlantic.
Dreams
The Corrs
Now here you go again, you say you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It's only right that you should play the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound
Of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering what you had
And what you lost
CHORUS:
Yeah, thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Yeah, women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you'll know, you'll know
Now here I go again, I see the crystal visions
I keep my visions to myself
Well, it's only me that wants to wrap around your dreams and
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell
Dreams of loneliness
Like a heartbeat drives you mad (drives you mad)
In the stillness of remembering what you had
(Drives you mad) and what you lost (remember what you had)
Thunder only happens when it's raining
(Thunder only happens when it's)
Players only love you when they're playing
(Players only love you when they're)
Yeah, women they will come and they will go (they will go)
When the rain washes you clean you'll know, oh oh
Yeah, thunder only happens when it's raining
(Thunder only happens when it's)
And players only love you when they're playing
(Players only love you when they're)
Yeah, women they will come and they will go (they will go)
When the rain washes you clean you'll know
You'll know (the heartbeat drives you mad) you'll know
(remember what you had) (the heartbeat drives you mad) you'll know
You'll know
SIXPENCE NONE THE RICHER - KISS ME
Sixpence None the Richer was a pop/rock band with roots in New Braunfels, Texas, eventually settling in Nashville, Tennessee. They are named after a passage in writer C. S. Lewis' Mere Christianity.
Guitarist/songwriter Matt Slocum met vocalist Leigh Bingham Nash at a church retreat in the early 1990s. They recorded a demo (which now circulates as "The Original Demos") at Verge Music Works recording studio in Dallas, and eventually an album, "The Fatherless and the Widow," for the Contemporary Christian record label R.E.X. Music in 1993. The record featured Chris Dodds (of Slocum's other band, Love Coma) on drums. Shortly after the release of the album, Slocum left Love Coma to pursue Sixpence full time. The band added Tess Wiley (guitar) J. J. Plasencio (bass) and Dale Baker (drums) for 1995's "This Beautiful Mess." Both albums were produced by producer Armand John Petri.
"Kiss Me" is a song recorded by
Sixpence None the Richer. It reached number two on the U.S. Hot 100 and number four on the Canadian Singles Chart, making it the group's highest-charting single across the world.
The song was released as a single in 1999, propelling Sixpence into the US pop spotlight. The Grammy-nominated song became the top airplay song in over 10 countries including Canada, the UK, Japan (later, the band re-recorded "Kiss Me" with Japanese lyrics), Australia, and Israel and was also featured in a number of motion pictures (She's All That) and TV Shows (Dawson's Creek, Saturday Night Live, MTV's The Real World, The Young and the Restless, Days of Our Lives and others). One version of the video for the song became VH1's number-one video for the entire month of May. In June 1999, "Kiss Me" was featured during the BBC's worldwide broadcast of Prince Edward's wedding ceremonies, at the request of Britain's royal family. "Kiss Me" was also used in 2001's Not Another Teen Movie, during a scene that parodied one from 1999's She's All That, in which the song was prominently featured. The song has also been covered by artists such as Avril Lavigne.
The music video pays tribute to french filmmaker François Truffaut and his movie Jules et Jim, made in black and white and recreating many of the classic scenes.

Sixpence None the Richer
Kiss me out of the bearded barley.
Nightly, beside the green, green grass.
Swing, swing, swing the spinning step.
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.
Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
Lift your open hand.
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
Silver moon's sparkling.
So kiss me.
Kiss me down by the broken tree house.
Swing me upon its hanging tire.
Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat.
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map.
Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight.
Lead me out on the moonlit floor.
Lift your open hand.
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance,
Silver moon's sparkling.
So kiss me
RIHANNA - UNFAITHFUL
Rihanna was born on the Caribbean island of Barbados. She was the first of three children to Ronald and Monica Fenty. Her mother is of black/Guyanese descent and her father is a biracial Bajan of Irish descent. She has two younger brothers named Rorrey and Rajad.
Rihanna went to Charles F. Broome Memorial School, a primary school in Barbados, and then on to one of Barbados' secondary schools, the Combermere School, where she formed a musical trio with two of her classmates.
In 2004, she won the Miss Combermere Beauty Pageant and performed in the Colours of Combermere School Show, singing Mariah Carey's "Hero". At the age of 15, Rihanna received her big break when one of her friends introduced her to music producer Evan Rogers, who was vacationing in Barbados with his wife. Rogers, along with his partner, Carl Sturken, helped Rihanna record material in the US which was sent to various recording companies. One copy of Rihanna's work was sent to Jay-Z, who eventually signed her to his record label Island Def Jam Records.
Unfaithful is a pop song written by Ne-Yo, Tor Erik Hermansen and Mikkel S. Eriksen for Rihanna's second album A Girl Like Me (2006). It was produced by Stargate and released as the album's second single in mid-2006. Unfaithful reached number one in seven countries and charted strongly across the world.

Unfaithful
Rihanna
Story of my life
Searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul
Cause it seems that wrong
Really loves my company
He's more than a man
And this is more than love
The reason that the sky is blue
The clouds are rolling in
Because I'm gone again
And to him I just can't be true
And I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
And it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I can see him dying
CHORUS:
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be...
A murderer
I feel it in the air
As I'm doing my hair
Preparing for another date
A kiss upon my cheek
As he reluctantly
Asks if I'm gonna be out late
I say I won't be long
Just hanging with the girls
A lie I didn't have to tell
Because we both know
Where I'm about to go
And we know it very well
Cause I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
And it kills him inside
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I can see him dying
CHORUS:
I don't wanna do this anymore
I don't wanna be the reason why
Everytime I walk out the door
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be...
A murderer
Our love, his trust
I might as well take a gun and put it to his head
Get it over with
I don't wanna do this
Anymore
Uh
Anymore (anymore)

No no no no
Yeah yeah yeah
ELTON JOHN AND LEANN RIMES - WRITTEN IN THE STARS
Elton John was one of the dominant commercial forces in the rock world during the 1970s, with a string of seven consecutive #1 records on the U.S. album charts, 23 Top 40 singles, 16 Top 10 ones, and six #1 hits. His success had a profound impact on popular music, and contributed to the continued popularity of the piano in rock and roll. Key musical elements in John's success included his melodic gifts matched with the contributions of his lyricist partner Bernie Taupin, his rich tenor and gospel-chorded piano, aggressive string arrangements, and his flamboyant fashion sense and on-stage showmanship.
His 1999 duet with LeAnn Rimes, Written in the Stars, reached #29 on the U.S. Top 40, marking the 30th consecutive year in which Elton John had had a Top 40 single. (However, this methodology credits one late 1995 hit {"Blessed") that extended into the January 1996 chart, and another single ("Candle in the Wind '97") whose chart run covered both 1997 and 1998.)

Elton
I am here to tell you we can never meet again
Simple really, isn't it, a word or two and then
A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when
You think of me or speak of me or wonder what befell
The someone you once loved so long ago so well
LeAnn
Never wonder what I'll feel as living shuffles by
You don't have to ask me and I need not reply
Every moment of my life from now until I die
I will think or dream of you and fail to understand
How a perfect love can be confounded out of hand
LeAnn and Elton (Chorus)
Is it written in the stars
Are we paying for some crime
Is that all that we are good for
Just a stretch of mortal time
Is this God's experiment
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise
But only for a day
Elton
Nothing can be altered, there is nothing to decide
No escape, no change of heart, no anyplace to hide
LeAnn
You are all I'll ever want, but this I am denied
Sometimes in my darkest thoughts, I wish I'd never learned
Leann and Elton
What it is to be in love and have that love returned
Chorus
JAMES BROWN - CAN'T GET ANY HARDER
James Joseph Brown, Jr. (May 3, 1933 – December 25, 2006), commonly referred to as "The Godfather of Soul", was an American entertainer recognized as one of the most influential figures in 20th-century popular music.
As a prolific singer, songwriter, bandleader, and record producer, Brown was a seminal force in the evolution of gospel and rhythm and blues into soul and funk. He left his mark on numerous other musical genres, including rock, jazz, reggae, disco, dance and electronic music, afrobeat, and hip hop music.
In 2006, Brown continued his "Seven Decades Of Funk World Tour", to be his last, performing all over the world. His latest shows were still greeted with positive reviews. His last Irish performance was at the Oxegen festival in Punchestown in 2006.
One of the major musical influences of the past 50 years, James Brown was to rhythm and dance music what Bob Dylan was to lyrics.
From Jagger to Michael Jackson, David Bowie to Public Enemy, his rapid-footed dancing, hard-charging beats and heartfelt yet often unintelligible vocals changed the musical landscape.
Read the full articleBrown was admitted to the Emory Crawford Long Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia on December 24, 2006 after a dentist visit where he was found to have severe pneumonia. Brown died the next day on December 25, 2006, Christmas Day, at around 1:45 a.m. (06:45 UTC) aged 73. The cause of death was heart failure, according to his agent. James was quoted saying "I'm going away tonight" sometime before he passed away. He then took three long, quiet breaths, and closed his eyes. Brown's body rested on the stage of legendary Apollo Theater in Harlem, the site of his debut. A private ceremony was held in Brown's hometown of Augusta, Georgia and another public ceremony was officiated by Rev. Al Sharpton, a day later at the James Brown Arena there.

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain,
The wind would whisper and I'd think of you
And all the tears you cried, that called my name
And when you needed me I came through
I paint a picture of the days gone by,
When love went blind and you would make me see
I'd stare a lifetime into your eyes
So that I knew that you were there for me,
Time after time, you were there for me
Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand, I remember you
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day,
I'd wanna hear you say, I remember you
We spend the summer with the top rolled down,
Wished ever after would be like this
You said "I love you babe," without a sound
I said I'd give my life for just one kiss
I'd live for your smile, and die for your kiss
Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand, I remember you
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say, I remember you
We've had our share of hard times,
But that's the price we paid
And through it all, we kept the promise that we made
I swear you'll never be lonely
Woke up to the sound of pouring rain,
Washed away a dream of you
But nothing else could ever take you away,
'Cause you'll always be my dream come true,
Oh my darling, I love you!
Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand, I remember you
Through the sleepless nights, through every endless day
I'd wanna hear you say, I remember you
Remember yesterday, walking hand in hand
Love letters in the sand, I remember you
