Cheryl Cole - Waiting

"In another time, you'll still be mine"

Whether she's judging on X-Factor or releasing her own music, Cheryl Cole seems to inspire a lot of passion. I'm surprised how "love-or-hate" she is with people, especially since the majority of her music is pretty darn bland -- eliciting glazed over eyes more than fiery emotion. Her second album is mostly the same as the first, though there are a few more standouts in my opinion. Cole's voice (solo, at least) definitely has its limitations and she does best with heavily produced uptempo numbers that hide that. Waiting, the last track on the new album, is one of my favorites. It's an uncharacteristically energetic dance song with what sounds like a Vanessa Carlton piano sample (can anybody confirm this?) running throughout. That it comes at the end of an album largely devoted to tired Will.i.am produced midtempos is kind of surprising. It's more Girls Aloud-style than most of her solo work. That's probably why I like it so much.
