I am nominating this for featured list because... I worked hard on creating and formating the article. I also believe it follows in the same style of List of songs recorded by Rihanna and List of songs recorded by Leona Lewis which I have previously promoted to FL. The list is current and up to date is not likely to change until she releases her third album sometime in Summer 2013. AARON• TALK 16:05, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Support – Article looks good. I just have one comment about the lead. You forgot to add "and" after "Between the Sheets". — Oz (talk) 23:05, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Comments
(Note some items may be repeated from above: sorry).
- Lead
- Wikilink Norwegian to [[Norwegians|Norwegian]].
- Adjust piped links on Moroccan and Swedish to [[Moroccan people|Moroccan]] and [[Swedes|Swedish]] respectively.
- Delink common terms (for this type of article) e.g. songwriter
- "fiercier and sexier." > "fiercer and sexier". Spelling and formatting for British English.
- The way I understand British English, the quote ends then you have the full stop or comma. I've fixed this.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 19:18, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- wL iSHi to [[Eshraque "iSHi" Mughal|iSHi]].
- Fix three songs for Heartbreak on Hold, including Since you list all three the 'including' is unnecessary.
- I'd like a better word/phrase than 're-vocalled'. Is this a widely accepted verbification? Maybe try 'redone vocal'?
- Photos
- Delink American.
- songwriter with his real name > songwriter under his legal name. Jim Jonsin is his professional 'real name'.
- Tables
- For cite album-notes template retain the albumlink= parameter rather than wikilink in the title. If a url can be found later this may disrupt the template.
- e.g. <ref name="OvercomeNotes">{{cite album-notes|title=[[Overcome (Alexandra Burke album)|Overcome]] (Re-release, 2010)|artist=[[Alexandra Burke]]|year=2009|format=liner notes|publisher=[[Syco Music|Syco]]|publisherid=B001NIIUS2}}</ref> > <ref name="OvercomeNotes">{{cite album-notes|title=Overcome </i>(Re-release, 2010)<i>|albumlink=Overcome (Alexandra Burke album)|artist=[[Alexandra Burke]]|type=liner notes|year=2009|publisher=[[Syco Music|Syco]]|publisherid=B001NIIUS2}}</ref> Note, in this case, (Re-release, 2010) is not in italics: it's not part of the album's title.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 11:42, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Done. AARON• TALK
- I stuffed up on the albumlink and fixed it myself.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 19:18, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- e.g. <ref name="OvercomeNotes">{{cite album-notes|title=[[Overcome (Alexandra Burke album)|Overcome]] (Re-release, 2010)|artist=[[Alexandra Burke]]|year=2009|format=liner notes|publisher=[[Syco Music|Syco]]|publisherid=B001NIIUS2}}</ref> > <ref name="OvercomeNotes">{{cite album-notes|title=Overcome </i>(Re-release, 2010)<i>|albumlink=Overcome (Alexandra Burke album)|artist=[[Alexandra Burke]]|type=liner notes|year=2009|publisher=[[Syco Music|Syco]]|publisherid=B001NIIUS2}}</ref> Note, in this case, (Re-release, 2010) is not in italics: it's not part of the album's title.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 11:42, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Where are songwriters for "Beating Still"? The album's article gives: Carl Ryden, [[Cozi Costi]], [[Nina Woodford]]; ASCAP gives two hits for 'Beating Still' with one by an exercise franchise and the other by Ryden et al. If there is some dispute over authorship then a note to explain is required. APRA has COSTI C/WOODFORD N/RYDEN C with performer as ALEXANDRA BURKE, if using the latter ref try <ref name="APRABeating">{{cite web | publisher = [[Australasian Performing Right Association]] (APRA) | title = 'Beating Still' at APRA search engine | url = http://www.apra-amcos.com.au/worksearch.axd?q=Beating%20Still | accessdate = 19 October 2012 }}</ref>. Likewise for "Devil in Me" APRA gives MARTIN P/CHRISTOPHER B. To adjust the ref fix title, then go to end of url and after q= type in song's title with %20 in place of spaces. This verfies the album's article, which has [[Bryn Christopher]], Pete Martin as the writers.
- It has some limitations: output only gives first initial or sometimes only last name, unless solo writer. However, being in AU I use it a fair bit.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 11:42, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- You didn't change the second APRA ref correctly: I've done so for you. While there, why is "Beating Still" entered twice?shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 19:18, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- For Digital Spy's publisher it is given Hachette Filipacchi Médias, Hachette sold Digital Spy to Hearst Magazines UK. See article on Digital Spy itself: "On 1 August 2011, ownership of Hachette UK was sold to Hearst Magazines UK." Only fault I see great work.

Oppose very poor on the lead.

Comments Looks good, made a few copyediting changes here. Here are some further comments:
- It might be worth specifying which series of The X Factor Burke won.
- Probably no need to link to nationalities (i.e. Norwegian, Moroccan, Swedish), per WP:OVERLINK.
- You say "British singer-songwriter Pixie Lott", but "The British singer-songwriter Alexandra Burke". Personally, I'd like to see some consistency.
- The links in the contents box that don't lead anywhere (i.e. C, J, K, M, Q, R, U, Z) can probably be removed.
- "The Silence" needs to sort under S.
- Is there any reason why James Ryan is credited on the no rap version of "Bad Boys", but not the regular version?
- Because he most probably wrote the bridge which is not present on the rap version, which is replaced by Flo Rida's rap. AARON• TALK 12:04, 1 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
