"To Love Again" is the get-go unmarried from a re-release of Alesha Dixon's second album, The Alesha Show, entitled The Alesha Show - Encore released by Asylum Records. The song is produced by John Shanks and written by Gary Barlow, and is one of 4 new tracks that appears on the re-release. Bimbo Jones has washed a guild remix for the song. The first calendar week sales raised from the song were donated to Children in Demand.[1]
Background [edit]
Dixon and Barlow met in Los Angeles with John Shanks and penned the vocal within the twenty-four hours. Dixon wrote the lyrics about recovering from her divorce with MC Harvey a few years previously.[2] Dixon praised Barlow, describing him equally a "genius" and explained the reason for creating the track together; "We've become really adept friends since going up the mount together for Comic Relief. He is a genius so it was an absolute honour to write the song with him."[3]
Composition [edit]
"To Love Again" is a R&B influenced ballad that lasts 3 minutes and 51 seconds. The vocal consists of 67 beats per minute; a moderate tempo.[iv] The instruments primarily used throughout the song are the piano and the guitar. The song is written in the key of A minor and Dixon'due south vocal range spans from F3 to Cv.[4] Fraser McAlpine of the BBC commented that "it's a plaintive ballad, which starts kind of small-scale and intimate and ends kind of huge and expanded [...] It sounds for all the world like a archetype Gary Barlow ballad - a slower 'Patience'".[5] Music website TeenToday noted Dixon'due south song ability, maxim " Dixon's voice has never sounded better – and in fact, seems to have got a flake stronger".[six]
Music video [edit]
The music video was originally intended to be filmed in Prague, even so, the video shoot coincided with a papal visit by Pope Benedict Sixteen, and filming difficulties would occur. Also, Charles Span, which was planned to feature throughout the video was clad in scaffolding, causing more filming complications.[7] The new video, shot on viii October 2009 in Battersea Park, London, features Dixon walking through a misty park with autumn leaves scattered across the ground. Her love involvement throughout the video appears then disappears intermittently, giving the impression he is spirit-like. The video ends at night with Dixon stood in the park in the heart of a group of people, with skyscrapers in the backdrop, with an array of sky lanterns flying in the heaven. The video premiered on 4Music on 13 October 2009 at 7:00pm GMT. The video was directed by Big Boob tube!.[8]
Chart performance [edit]
The song entered the U.k. Singles Nautical chart at xv; this would be the height position information technology would reach. The next week "To Love Over again" dropped eleven places to 26 in the charts and past week 3 it had disappeared from the Pinnacle 40 entirely; it had dropped to 50 in the charts.[ix] Week 3 became the last week it charted in, earlier dropping out of the Top 75.[9] Peaking a 15, "To Dear Again" became Dixon'south everyman charting single since "Knockdown" in 2006, which charted at 45. "To Love Again", despite being released in Ireland, failed to chart on the Irish Singles Chart, though every unmarried Dixon has released has fared less well in the Irish charts than the UK charts.
Live performances [edit]
Dixon performed the vocal first on twenty November at the Children in Need 2009 telethon event on BBC1, which she also co-hosted with Terry Wogan and Tess Daly. Additionally, Dixon performed "The Boy Does Nothing" at Children in Need too.[10] On 24 November Dixon sang live at GMTV.[11] Dixon and then performed "To Love Again" on 27 November on The Alan Titchmarsh Evidence.[11] Dixon did perform on Alan Carr: Chatty Human being, however she neglected to play "To Dear Once again", and chose instead to perform "The Light", an album track from The Alesha Show - Encore.
