The Voice UK winner Andrea Begley cracks Top 20... but not with her winner's track

[Marcus.]

The Voice 2013 Andrea Begley is set to at least crack the Top 20 this week, although it’s not with her winner’s song.


Andrea’s winner’s track, a cover of Sarah McLachlan’s Angel, has yet to be released for download, proving that there’s still a huge problem when it comes to launching the show’s winners.

But in better news, Andrea is in the Top 20 of the download charts already with her take on My Immortal from last night’s live show.

Andrea was a surprise winner on last night’s The Voice 2013 results, beating favourite Leah McFall.

While Leah may have not got the phone votes, she easily leads the record sales, with three tracks in the Top 40 of the iTunes charts.

Her cover of I Will Survive remains high, currently just one spot behind Andrea, while I Will Always Love You is a second track from the 23-year-old to have made the Top 20. Completing the trio is Killing Me Softly from last week’s show, currently sitting at number 30.

Elsewhere and Andrea’s covers of One Of Us and Ho Hey are both in the Top 50, while Mike Ward’s covers – When I Was Your Man, Suspicious Minds and Picking Up the Pieces – are all in the Top 75.

Fourth placed finisher Matt Henry has only the one song in the Top 100, his take on Babylon from last night’s show is at 96.

Good for her, I actually enjoyed her rendition of the song a lot. It was angelic and pure.

I thought all four of the finalists were pretty good last night. Leah smashed it, and although she didn't win I think she'll have a great career ahead of her.
