<span style="color:black">2012…<b>Paloma Faith’s</b> <b><u>Fall To Grace</u></b> moves
<i>UP</i> on the official UK album chart this week, returning to the #2 position. The album originally debuted at the same #2 spot in the UK this past May — would have been #1 if the Queen didn’t have a jubilee album! — dropped down to
</span><span style="color:#1F497D">#</span><span style="color:black">5, then with a new single and a few more television performances like Graham Norton, Alan Carr, and Jools Holland (again), it went back UP to #2. Who moves up when you are already in the Top
5? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><span style="color:black">Someone who’s got all the critics crazed, that’s who. With
<i>Mojo</i> raving that<span style="background:white"> </span>“(<b>Faith</b>) sings the bejesus out of these big, open-hearted tunes; warming you with melodramatic hooks and cleverly constructed pop-soul,”
<i>Q</i> declaring that “(<b>Faith</b>) has evolved into a writer of songs with real emotional weight,” and
<i>The Times</i> dubbing it an album that “achieves real grandeur,” it’s no wonder the album hasn’t left the top of the charts since its release.<br>
</span><b><u><br>
Fall To Grace</u></b> will be <b>Faith</b>’s first US release when it is out November 27<sup>th</sup> via Epic Records. First single “<b>Picking Up The Pieces</b>,” which went top 10 across the pond, is out on iTunes now:

Olympic torch she ran with last month to charity. <b>Faith</b> had the honor of carrying the Olympic flame through her native Hackney on her birthday last month, a week before the summer games began, causing quite a stir in her choice in running shoes.
<b>Faith</b> reveals on Alan Carr’s <i>Summertime Spectacular </i>that she was subject to a heckler while on her walk with the flame, telling the audience, "I did it in red stilettos and this woman, she was in the crowd, she went, 'Should have been white shoes'."
