The licence body PRS compile their list as part of collecting royalties for songwiters, and PRS is well known for it draconian actions, even wanting to fine a charity shop for playing a radio. So we can be sure that if PRS say Sweet About Me was top of their list it would have arrived there after rigorous checks.
There’s even more good news for fans of Gabriella as her new single On A Mission is a wonderful uplifting power pop track with the lyrics inspiring warm vibes: "I am a woman on a mission, whatever it takes I will do what I gotta do”.
The video for the single is a lot of fun too, perhaps somewhat inspired by the film Barbarella as the publicity shot of Gabriella Cilmi (photo, right) has certain echoes of Jane Fonda at her glamorous best.
Unexpected fact number two - Gabriella won the Grand Prix accolade at Sopot International Song Festival in Poland on August 22 2009 and she sang, you guessed it, Sweet About Me, which Gabriella also co-wrote.
On A Mission is due for commercial release in March with Gabriella’s second studio album expected to follow soon after.
