I agree except with the bold part because if she was more aware she would try and release more english albums.
who knows she might get known here if she did release more english stuff.

and for the rest of your post: that also and she was born here too so maybe that's why she mentions overseas

In my opinion she's released enough English stuff to see it won't work out here. She's tried everything. The mainstream sexy girl with the make-up and the catchy pop song (Easy Breezy), the sexy dance single WHICH SHOULDVE GOTTEN A PV (Devil Inside), the "underground" alternative song (You Make Me Want To Be A Man) and the smooth R&B ballad (Come Back To Me).

Her English material has been really versatile but she just doesn't get anything. It might be lack of good promo, and she's just too different I guess. Either too different (YMMWTBAM) or too general (Come Back To Me).

I LOVE her English material, though, so in the end I do agree: I want more English albums!! But I don't think she hasn't tried enough over here.

Yeah, I agree..but I don't think she's not known because she hasn't released a lot of albums. Taylor Swift has two, and sheesh is she uber-famous internationally.

I think it's lack of promo..apparently she released a song here in the U.K..guess who's lived here all their lives and never heard a peep? I was a fan of her at the time too. Her promo team really need to get serious about her Western career if she wants another try after her hiatus.
