2010 debut album from the X-Factor contestant/runner-up. Songs From The Tainted Cherry Tree is the result of over a year's worth of work for Diana with an amazing array of co-writers and producers. The list of collaborators is as impressive as it is surprising, with Ellie Goulding, Lightspeed Champion, Nerina Pallot, Starsmith, Guy Sigsworth and Cathy Dennis all helping to give the record its mature shape. But it's Diana herself who keeps it box-fresh youthful. Her work with Hackney digi-Folk troubadour Lightspeed Champion on "Me and You" has produced probably the straightest Pop song on the record, ironically with her most unusual collaboration. Ellie Goulding's co-write "Remake Me and You" meanwhile, is the strangest cut on the record a jittery stop-start Electro Boogie that lodges itself straight in the head. Sony/BMG.


2010 Debut CD single taken from "Songs From The Tainted Cherry". Tracks: Once, Sunlight (non-LP), Jumping Into Rivers, Four Leaf Clover. English singer/songwriter who rose to fame as semi-finalist in the 2008 series of The X Factor (UK).



Diana Vickers (born 30 July 1991 in Blackburn, England) is an English singer and actress. Vickers initially came to public attention as a semi-finalist on the fifth series of British talent show The X Factor in 2008.

From 8 October 2009 until 30 January 2010, she played the title role in a West End revival of The Rise and Fall of Little Voice as the leading role of Little Voice, marking her acting debut to which she received positive reviews for her performance including recognition from Broadway.

Vickers' music career was officially launched in March 2010 in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Vickers' debut single and album will be released through RCA Records and are currently being promoted alongside a UK tour that started on 20 March.

◎無緣晉級The X Factor前三強，落在殿軍止步，卻寫下英國專輯和單曲冠軍紀錄的優嗓新聲帶
◎由Q雜誌「百大影響人物」才女Cathy Dennis+炙手可熱的大師Eg White(Adele、Duffy)攜手打造〈Once〉，直衝英國金榜冠軍
◎BBC「2010年流行新聲音」榜首Ellie Goulding、GQ雜誌推崇樂壇影響人物Chris Braide與Lady Gaga、Katy Perry幕後推手Starsmith等黃金陣容齊力拱盤

16歲參加英國當紅的歌唱實境秀The X Factor節目，雖然無緣晉級前三強，落在殿軍止步，卻早已累積超高人氣，令人驚豔Diana Vickers獨特且超齡的歌唱實力，不僅能唱，更能彈得一手好吉他、吹奏小號等樂器，交出上乘的創作歌曲！不讓師姊里歐娜、同屆冠亞軍Alexandra Burke、JLS專美於前，相當爭氣的寫下英國專輯和單曲冠軍紀錄，成為樂壇最受矚目的年度新秀之一！

從小即展現極佳歌唱才華的Diana，曾在當地歌唱比賽中試試身手。直到母親的鼓勵，終在The X Factor嶄露頭角。不是出生星光冠軍的Diana，還是引起唱片公司以及毒舌評審Simon的興趣，經過一段時間的合約洽談，最後花落RCA Records旗下。不急著錄製個人專輯的Diana，反而多花些時間找出最適合自己的歌路，同時受邀演出舞台劇「The Rise And Fall Of Little Voice」，不但抱回觀眾票選「年度倫敦新人」，更受小說原著作家Jim Cartwright大為激賞！這個機會也讓Diana接受專業級訓練，同時提升更精湛的演繹技巧，完整秀出堅強的唱功實力！

醞釀多時發行的處女秀《Songs From A Tainted Cherry Tree》，請到許多紅牌製作/詞曲撰寫家齊力效勞，摘下英國金榜后冠，快速獲頒金唱片銷售認證。第一波支主打〈Once〉，由Q雜誌「百大最具影響力人物」才女Cathy Dennis+炙手可熱的大師Eg White(Adele、Duffy、Will Young)攜手量身打造，貫穿超強力電子氣流，不失勁道的搖滾節拍猛重敲擊，挾帶Diana略帶黑人靈味的攪拌下，直接送上UK第一名位置；入列BBC「2010年流行新聲音」榜首的才氣女孩Ellie Goulding，協助執筆散發Electro-Pop的〈Remake Me & You〉、都會新民謠動聽小品〈Notice〉和〈Jumping Into Rivers〉等三支佳作；入籍GQ雜誌「音樂事業上低於40歲最成功及影響力人士」的Chris Braide操刀〈The Boy Who Murdered Love〉，包覆流暢耐聽的吉他搖滾音場，引起排行榜的騷動；擁有法國與印度血統的個性搖滾女聲Nerina Pallot貢獻〈Put It Back Together〉，宣洩出真切的豐沛情感，值得細細品味；閃爍晶亮Synth-Pop節拍，揮灑起舞搖擺誘因的〈You`ll Never Get to Heaven〉，交付Lady Gaga、Katy Perry轟動國際作品幕後推手Starsmith掌舵；美到不像話的〈N.U.M.B〉，還有翻唱冰島精靈Bjork於The Sugarcubes時期之作品〈Hit〉，都是Diana釋放令人難以招架的致命吸引力！

Once
Here we are, a careful distance
Here’s my heart, what’s left of it
In this town, I used to listen
Once, Once, Yeah
I had hope, blind faith
had as much as you can take
I’m only gonna let you kill me once
I’m only gonna let you
kill me then some
I’m only gonna let you kill me
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once…
Ashes burn the morning after
Only know I’m here to stay
I was so, I let you see me
That was dumb, but that’s OK
Tripping down to your place
What is love anyway
I’m only gonna let you kill me once
I’m only gonna let you
kill me then some
I’m only gonna let you kill me
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
I’m only gonna let you kill me
Who or whatever you do
Don’t let anyone love you
Touch them where it hurts
And then you’ll leave
I’m only gonna let you kill me once
I’m only gonna let you
kill me then some
I’m only gonna let you kill me
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
I’m only gonna let you kill me
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah
Once, Once, Once, yeah

Sunlight
After the day goes,
And all the tears flow,
When there is no-one,
Nothing by your side.
Where do the dreams go,
When were not sleeping,
Is there a world outside,
Thats waiting just for us.
I wanna wake up with
the sunlight in my eyes,
I wanna wake up with
the sunlight in my eyes.
When all the stars fall,
Out of the night sky,
Fall like an angel,
Into these arms of mine.
Give me a song to sing,
And Ill give you everything,
Ill give everything I know,
I know.
I wanna wake up with
the sunlight in my eyes,
I wanna wake up with
the sunlight in my eyes,
After the clouds have gone,
When all the lights shine on,
I wanna wake up with
the sunlight in my eyes.
With the sunlight.
If someones looking out for me,
If someones listening to me,
If someones looking.
Give me a song to sing,
And Ill give you everything,
Ill give you everything I know,
I know.
I wanna wake up with
the sunlight in my eyes,
I wanna wake up with
the sunlight in my eyes,
Give me a song to sing,
And Ill give you everything,
I wanna wake up with
the sunlight in my eyes,
With the sunlight in my eyes.

Jumping Into Rivers (Frou Frou Central Mix)Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh o-oh!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Back of the scooter,
I clutch your waist,
We rode away into the night,
Where reality breaks
I look at you
and take a picture with my hands,
not much to do
sit and laugh away at things,
Were on the ride
But were still jumping in and
Were on the ride
But were still jumping into rivers
Into rivers oh oh oh
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, o-oh!
Into rivers, oh oh oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, o-oh
Theres no fight
and theres no challenges with you
Just the night
The crescent sunshine
right on queue,
come inside,
We dont need anything
or need anyone or anyplace
Just the sun

Were on the ride
But were still jumping in and
Were on the ride
But were still jumping into rivers
into rivers oh, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh oh, o-oh,
Into rivers oh, oh, oh

Everythings changing colour
So everything seems so perfect
We wont know eachother tomorrow
But every days been worth it
Were on the ride
But were still jumping in and
Were on the ride
we still jumping into rivers
Into rivers oh oh oh
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, o-oh
Into rivers oh oh oh
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, o-oh

Four Leaf Clover (Acoustic Version)Boy, you let me down
I tried too hard & I feel numb
Now
That crooked smile
& your charm that drew me in
Your beautiful eyes,
Can hide so many things
(Chorus)
You were my Four Leaf Clover
My pure white dove
You were my lightning strike
& my knock on wood
My hope & my faith
My luck & love
Yeah!
You were my shooting star
That lit up the sky
Then you broke the mirror
& my heart died
No hope & no faith
No luck, no love
Just ordinary
Oh oh oh
Just ordinary now
Oh oh oh
Oh!
Im not crying
But I thought you were
the perfect thing
For me
Dont get me wrong
You can be wonderful sometimes
But then youre lost
And you cant look me in the eyes
(Chorus)
You were my Four Leaf Clover
My pure white dove
You were my lightning strike
& my knock on wood
My hope & my faith
My luck & love
Yeah!
You were my shooting star
That lit up the sky
Then you broke the mirror
& my heart died
No hope & no faith
No luck, no love
Just ordinary
Oh oh oh
Just ordinary now
Oh oh oh
You were my Four Leaf Clover
My pure white dove
You were my lightning strike
& my knock on wood
My hope & my faith
My luck & love
Yeah!
You were my shooting star
That lit up the sky
Then you broke the mirror
& my heart died
No hope & no faith
No luck, no love
Just ordinary
Oh oh oh
Just ordinary now
Oh oh oh
