Aleesha Rome – Aleesha Rome (2000)

Aleesha Rome was an Australian pop singer obviously modeled to succeed Britney as pop royalty. Of course, as happened to almost every other pop tart pushed into Britney’s shadow, she was a resounding flop. I picked this album up for $1 and figured I’d give it a go. It’s OK, but pretty dated sounding IMO. Her voice is quite Britney-esque and the music is pure pop, without the faux R&B sound of early Britney. But Aleesha is less memorable in looks, voice and sound, and she failed to make an impact almost everywhere in the world (though she did manage minor success in her native Australia). The album does contain fun dance mixes of two of her singles, however – “Search My Heaven” and “One Of Us Has Changed”. And Aleesha has continued on in an indie-rock group called Ivy York. But for the full love on Aleesha, please visit our friends at Pop Trash Addicts, whose tribute I discovered while searching for info on the girl. Thankfully there are sites like this and theirs to keep the flame lit for these types of artists!
