While she was in London last month, Idina recorded a duet with X-Factor runner-up Rhydian Roberts. The song is titled “What If” and will appear on Rhydian’s album which is released in the UK on 24 November. I do not know if it will have a US release, but it’s currently available for streaming as part of a broadcast on a BBC radio program.
Trivia: This song is actually a cover of a Kate Winslet (yes, really!) song that she recorded in 2001 for the soundtrack of Christmas Carol: The Movie. The single went to #1 in Ireland and #6 in the UK!
Mark your calendars and set your Tivo for Thursday, January 15th! Idina’s PBS Soundstage Concert Special from Rose Hall in New York (filmed April 14 & 15, 2008) will be aired at 10pm EDT/9pm CDT on Thursday, January 15, 2009. Check your local listings for more information because PBS is weird sometimes. Look for more details coming soon.
Last week wrapped up the last of Idina’s appearances on UK television. Below you can watch her be interviewed on ITV’s “This Morning” by Fern & Phil, followed by a performance of “Brave.” A gorgeous (pun intended!) advertisement for I Stand is currently running on UK TV, so you can watch that below, as well.

Even though Idina is back Stateside, her work over in the UK is not quite finished. First up, we have a greeting for the fans she recorded while overseas. The second video is her performance on ITV’s program, “For One Night Only.” Enjoy!
