I am a great Alex Parks fan, but sorry I do not like her latest single. She will need to do a lot better than that to make it in the charts. Unfortunately there is considerable competition for her in the world of pop

Debbie, Fareham, Hants
Have nearly played both the album and the Cry single out already. Think Alex is insperational and like no other. Am looking forward to the follow up album and UK tour. Look for her on MTV all the time, like to see her sing. Heres to a long and very successful future.xx

Alex ROCKS! She is my idol because she is an amazing person and creates the most magical music - Chasing the Blue is the best. I bought both copies of cry and I can't stop listening to Introduction since the day it came out. Can't wait until her second album comes out later this year. Good luck in the USA Alex. Thanks Alex - You are the no1 star of my life. You've inspired me in everything!

Well where do i start I think that alex has done realy good for herself and realy has put cornwall on the map. She done so well in the fame acadamy I said to myself when i saw her that she was going to win because she was from cornwall, Because I lived in cornwall for 6 years and at the moment i still want to meet alex because she is soo uneak at her singing she has a wounderfull voice she can sing for me any time she likes

Sarah B, Shropshire
amazing song, very inspiring and great to listen to whatever mood youre in. Still prefer her version of REM's song Everybody hurts though. keep up the amazing songs alex, youre voice is pure talent!
Sat Feb 28 10:12:06 2004

juliette
chart positions are not really that important, album positions are. and her album sold thousands. the song was so much better than half the songs in the top 10, such as busted. fair play to them but not much talent goes into that song. its so similar to their others. alex is goin to be an artist in her own right and not necesserily gettin no 1's all the time, but she will have a long and well established career. well dun darling x

girl, DUBAI
I am currently on the cliche find yourself gap year, thousands of miles from home [loving every minuate]i am shocked to find that alex parks single cry entered the british charts at number 13. When i left engand a month ago it was recieving a great deal praise, attention and radio play. Im sure it will clime as it is a great single from a suberb atrist whos talent is only eclipsed by the depth of appreceation from her loyle fans. I adore dirty pretty things. It is a fantastic blend of pop and rock. You have changed a once religous rock fan, opening her mind once again to the ever changing and developing pop maket. If british pop can produce more artists like alex parks i will be listening to the pop charts more othen. Your fans and your self may be pleased to know that your single my be thats what it takes has had air play here. Good luck in america. Im sure your scound album will surpass your first, no mater how an artist arrives, it is no reflection on their ability

Raz, Scotland
What beautiful music this gal writes. She's true to her music and true to herself, and I admire that. There's no need to worry about the charts, most of the stuff making it to number 1 is utter rubbish, Alex Parks is better than just numbers and trash. I really hope Alex carries on producing and making music for a long time. Raz

natie from London
Alex is great. Well done for getting in at 13. ALEX IS ALREADY NUMBER ONE TO ALL HER FANS I have not stopped listening to Introduction since I got it on 24th November. I cannot wait for the next one to come out. It is going to a great album with more of Alex great songwriting. On Monday, I bought both cd single for Cry. Chasing the blue is a great song. Thank you so much Alex for realising it. The acoustic version of Maybe that's what it takes and Wandering Soul are great. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR TRIP THE USA. I hope you get some freetime. Alex take good care of yourself and we see you at end of the year with you GREAT new album.

Lexifan - Barnsley
Alex is in a different class than the throw away pop artists topping the charts. I'm 48yrs old and Alex and her music are pure class. I can honestly say that she is the greatest artist I have ever heard. The acoustic versions on her new singles are amazing. Chasing the Blue is my favorite song/performance of any artist I have heard. What else can I say..... shes magical!
Mon Feb 23 17:05:11 2004

Jen, Scotland
Shocked to see Cry only got to 13. Alex is an artist that doesn't need to enter the top ten to have a hit. Her record company need to see this and not drop her; if she was pop through and through they could because that's where the pop market is. Carry on making music - I'd be lost without you! (",)

Ruth Austin, Doncaster
ALEX IS THE BEST!!!!! INTRODUCTION IS AMAZING I bought cry its cool. I love chasing the blue. I wish i could meet Alex and get to know her what i've seen on tv of he she is an amazing person and funny i love you Alex.
Mon Feb 23 16:45:14 2004

sam cornwall
i think alex parks is the best shes my idol my dream is to meet her and to turn out just like her singing career being famous and enjoying what she does and i hope her life is a complete sucsess any way the people on the radio propably made a mistake but dont wory if they didnt because i woul of put you number 1 if i was on the radio because your always gonna be number 1 in my eyes .
Mon Feb 23 16:30:20 2004

stp-belgium
Just want to say that alex has touched me.. i ve watched her on the bbc, i was hooked from moment one (beautiful). In my mind is was hoping that the cd was going to be released here in belgium, but not yet. Alex, if your music can persuaded people from other countries to really make an effort of finding & buying your music, than you're a star who is born. There is only one artist where i would walk the extra mile for and that is Ani Difranco. You are always so scared of letting everyone down, you are a star, shine and in time others will look up and notice you. And they will see that you re here to stay. Take care, stp

Michelle (Northern Ireland)
Cry is such a great song....definitely think it deserved to be number 1 though!!! Think its a pity the charts dont truely reflect the quality music that is Alex!!!! Love the album loads....but when is Alex going to come over to Ireland?????
Mon Feb 23 13:13:11 2004

Claire Mullen Armagh

Alex, You are beautiful! (and so is your music - keep making it, please)

Sharon - Stroud, Glos
To start with I was a devoted watchee of Fame Academy and from the start Alex showed a great deal of promise. As the show went on the performances got better and now she's fantastic. Her CD stays permanently in the car. The album is lovely, full of emotion just like all her performances, she's just pure pleasure to watch. Cry is one of my favourites from the album and am pleased that this has been released as a single, and she looks great in the video. So keep your heart in it as I look forward to your next album. Take care of yourself. Sharon X
Mon Feb 23 09:53:44 2004

James, Henfield
I think tha that the song itself is fantastic. But with these declining record sales she may fall into the same pattern that has swallowed up Hear'Say, One True Voice and Gareth Gates. No I think she is more talented than all of them, but does she have the backing to see her through? I'll keep my fingers crossed for ya Alex. P.S. Love the album!
Sun Feb 22 23:39:52 2004

CuteFatChick
I think she definitely has the talent and the fans to stick around for a long time. However i think her particular music and image is probably not one the gets the top ten hits, and in a chart obsessed business she will probably get dropped by her label. Look at stars like Tracey Chapman /Ani DiFranco though, who still write and tour very succesfully without the hits. Hopefully one label will see that sort of future for her and not leave her in the musical wilderness.

hannzie essex
I think dat alex is great.she not pop, so her singles wont automactially go to the top like stupid busted.The only way is up 4 alex.

Not a day goes by without me having my Alex fix in the car and I am a grannie of 3, so lt's not only you young'uns who think she is great.

Jen, Scotland
There aren't any words to describe how truely brilliant Alex is. I've bought both singles and the acoustic versions of MTWIT and Wandering Soul are mind blowing and Chasing The Blue is tear jerking. Introduction is an amazing album and I never play any other records. She is the most amazing artist and has a long career ahead of her. Love ya loads and best wishes. x

What is there to be said about the beautiful alex that hasn't been said before? Alex has got to be one of the best things to happen to British music in a while, i can put her album on whenever and for whatever mood i'm in and it makes me feel good. Alex just keep doing what you're doing because we love you!!
Fri Feb 20 23:55:37 2004

chasing the blue and the acoustic version of wandering soul are wasted as b sides on cry shame they could release them as seprate singles such emotion

Lexifan - Barnsley
have bought both versions of CRY - totally blown away by acoustic versions of MTWIT, Wandering Soul, and especially Chasing the Blue (so emotional)brings tears to my eyes. Please buy both versions, give Alex your support. This girl is a superstar! What else can I say....
