Low video quality but at least we can have an idea of the song.
SOUL singer Joss Stone dealt with some typical Scottish banter as she played Glasgow’s Oran Mor last night.
Joss played for just 500 people at the launch of her new album Colour Me Free at the west end venue.
Admirers in the crowd shouted “gies a dance” and “I’d do anything for you”.
But the glamorous Dover-born singer hit back: “This is the whole problem with men – they don’t listen.
“If they did, they would pick up so many hints. That’s why I’m still single.”
She giggled her way though a set including You Had Me, Right To Be Wrong, Super Duper and Fell In Love.
Her new album – out in April – sounds like it will be a big hit.

For people who don’t know about it, Joss recorded this film last year but it wasn’t relesead yet. It seems they changed the producer firm, maybe that’s why it was cancelled to be released for a while.
While we expect to be release, take a look at a little snippet on the link below:

INTERNATIONAL soul songstress Joss Stone got up close and personal with a Birmingham crowd at an intimate gig in the city.
The multi-award winning artist wowed the crowd of 250 with a unique musical performance at Digbeth’s Rainbow pub – a major coup for the venue which is currently threatened with closure.
The event is one of a handful of intimate UK gigs lined up by Joss to test out material from forthcoming album Colour Me Free which she hopes to release in April.
It was quite a surprise last minute gig which prompted a barrage of calls from excited fans asking whether the rumours were true. Word soon spread because the venue filled up more than an hour before Joss was due to grace the stage.
The atmosphere intensified as the crowd of mixed ages waited for her to make her appearance.
Expectations were high; after all we were among a select audience for the 21-year-old who these days is more used to performing in front of thousands.
Most people were simply intrigued as to why she had chosen the venue and the answer from her management was purely ‘getting back to basics.’ And when the Devon-born diva made her entrance the pub erupted. Her first few lines set the precedent for what was a great night.
Fans had a treat because the singer and her fabulous nine-man band and backing singers performed a 75 minute set including hit singles You Had Me and Super Duper Love and new material such as Free Me – her voice was spot on.
Joss, who performed bare foot, of course, was a hit with the crowd and enjoyed every minute of her performance.
The audience loved her, and what’s not to love – Joss is blessed with stunning looks, a fun persona and a strong, distinctive, sexy voice, which is second to none.
