Former Rogue Trader Still "Alive"

When i first heard the news that Natalie Bassingthwaighte was leaving the Rogue Traders i had mixed feelings, i loved their first album together ("Here Come The Drums") but wasn't a big fan of the follow up and Bassingthwaighte's final album as part of the group ("Better in the Dark").

"Alive", the first offering from Bassingthwaighte's first solo album, "1000 Stars" (due for release 2009), shows why she is set to become a music sensation all on her own! "Alive" is an uptempo-dance-disco hit in the making was co-written by Natalie along with Andy Frampton and Arnthor Birgisson. Sure to be a club resident over the Summer, "Alive" is a good sign of things to come!

Score: 8.5/10
