Episode description

Calling all Bad Boys and Demon Twinks who have been telling DJs to play 'All Night Long'! We are celebrating one of the UK's finest 'total package' popstars: Alexandra Burke.

For the first time in Right Back At Ya! history, we are covering an X Factor contestant - and we're starting with the bar raised high with not only an X Factor winner but a record-breaking artist who has sold over a million albums around the world, earning three Brit Award nominations in three consecutive years.  

Together Joel and David dive into Alexandra Burke's epic chart-topping debut album "Overcome" and its six Top 20 singles - three of which were No.1 hits: 'Hallelujah', 'Bad Boys' feat. Flo Rida, and 'Start Without You'. From her X Factor Series 5 journey through to whipping out RedOne bangers like 'Broken Heels' and A-list collabs with Pitbull ('All Night Long') and Ne-Yo ('Good Night, Good Morning') - Burke went big! It's no wonder we're still shook 12 years after its release.
