Mary Byrne: the checkout assistant from Ireland with the big personality and the voice to match. She was certainly a favourite on the 2010 X-Factor, and now finally it’s came time for her debut single to be released.

As we know, all those that made the final show had recorded a different song as the winner’s song and this may well have been the one that Mary would have released if she had won. The song itself is a cover (original is by Martina McBride) however, the song feels like Mary owns it with it being more balladistic and piano driven. Lyrically it’s also seems very fitting for her.

The song maybe doesn’t showcase the power of her vocals that viewers of the ITV1 show know that she is capable of. But the song is very fitting for her. It’s possibly a bit of playing it safe with this release, but with what appears very little promo for the song, the song is likely to go unnoticed.

Rating: 4/5
