I noticed that Shola Ama was playing on the speakers in Tesco's earlier, that's someone I haven't listened to in ages! As it was the first track of her second album playing, I'm giving that one a play.

"Much love" - Shola Ama

Winner of Best Woman at the recent BRIT awards, Shola's latest single sounds rather like her last one.

Not entirely sure about the zebra-print carpet, either.

"You might need somebody" - Shola Ama

We gave one hundred people one hundred seconds to name a dodgy nineties cover.

Twelve said this song.

Four people remembered "Torn" was a cover, well done if you got that at home.

Best answer on the board was MXM's Italiohouse cover of "Nothing compares 2 u", which is a) utter rubbish and b) would have put Β£250 into the jackpot.

"You might need somebody" - Shola Ama

According to legend, the young soul singer was spotted while singing at Hammersmith tube station.

This cover of Randy Crawford's other big hit landed in the top ten, and quickly found a place in everyone's hearts - it's now on its third #TOTP in as many weeks.

Album "Much Love" was a massive hit; 1999 follow-up "In Return" was a massive flop, and Shola's since said she was "not ready" for fame.
