here's one of the radio interviews she did in London.

Maria retweeted this today: "HessoMedia *** Exciting news and celebrations all round as Maria Mena (@mariamenamusic) makes the BBC Radio 2 Playlist this week!! ***"

it's a sign of progression

well it took some time, but that's good.. hopefully it will get people's attention!

I'm not surprised it took time, though. England is a tough market for Norwegian musicians.

And there is the website:

http://www.mariamenauk.com

According to the website, the official release date of All This Time is April 12th!

It's B-Listed at Radio2, am curious what this is gonna do!

Maria's UK website links to myspace and facebook sites especially targeted for the UK market. at the myspace site (www.myspace.com/mariamenauk) Sony Music International / Upside UK are given as record labels.

and "All This Time" is radio-listed at Smooth Radio.

this is all interesting.

I am glad she is finally getting some recognition in Britain. maybe she can do some shows there *wink wink* then I might be able to finally see her in concert. if not though, give me a couple of years then hopefully I will be back in Norway.

But yeah anyways, hopefully she does well in the UK, the UK can be a tough market for mainland european singers. well even though Norway isnt mainland. oh I will shut up now

Maria posted this on twitter today: "just heard the new uk radio edit of "just hold me".. makes me wanna do the vocals again (had a bad cold that day) but i really like it;)"

seems they're going to try out "Just Hold Me". "All This Time" did not chart. I'm curious about how the further promotion will be.
