Alesha Dixon: 'Let's Get Excited'

Give the past eight years of Alesha Dixon's career a dusting over and it's clear she's experienced more highs and lows than your average day out at Thorpe Park. However, over the past six months she's been unstoppable - largely because she's released exactly the right songs from her Alesha Show album. Catching our attention with the novelty-ish 'The Boys Does Nothing', she followed it up by showcasing her thoughtful side on 'Breathe Slow'. Now she's back and pulling her finest trick out from under her sleeve.

Just in time (hopefully) for summer, 'Let's Get Excited' is a perfect slice of exuberant pop that's sure to fill the dancefloor after a day spent lounging on the beach. With a ridiculously catchy chorus punctuated by a classic Dixon "hey hey hey", it's topped off with one of the year's most genius lyrics so far: "I'm so excited - I'm a detective I'm all over you." Just begging to be played at full volume across the land, this is further evidence that Alesha Dixon is fast becoming a bit of a national treasure.
