Orianthi’s career has taken quite a turn in the past year. One can probably make the case that most of the world would not of even heard from her if not for the untimely passing of Michael Jackson. Now instead of a London residence backing the King Of Pop, she has blown up on her own with hit “According To You”. With the re-release of Believe II, she seems poised to continue to dominate.

The original version of Believe was just fine, but seemed to lack any other appropriate mainstream pop-rock single to follow up “According To You”, a problem solved with the addition of the latest single “Shut & Kiss Me” and Howard Benson produced material “Courage” and  “Missing You” (a John Waite’s cover).

With ten tracks total, and four exclusive to this release, they’ve managed to put together a much more cohesive listening experience leaving little room for filler and little doubt that the prettiest guitar shredder around will continue growing upward.
