Amanda got into the festive spirit last week as she discussed the importance of the festive season in honour of her new track , which hit the airwaves on Friday. 

The song will be added to her recent album, Songs From My Heart, which soared to number four in the charts, leaving her to see the silver lining in an otherwise chaotic year.

Amanda reflected on her 2020 blessings to The Sun on Thursday, as she said: ‘It’s been a difficult year for us all but one of the positives to come from 2020 has been the extra time we’ve been given to engage with friends, neighbours, and our families. Home means love.

‘This Christmas let’s all make that extra-special effort to connect in whatever way we can with one another.’ 

Amanda recently celebrated the huge success of her album which was 2020’s biggest-selling debut record by a UK female artist.

Writing on Instagram she said: ‘Thank you everyone for making ‘Songs From My Heart’ the biggest selling debut album by a female artist this year so far!!!’
