Fired Up (Alesha album)

Dixon launched her solo career after Mis-Teeq's break-up in 2005 and signed a £500,000, three-album deal with Polydor Records. She spent a year writing and recording her solo debut album, working with a wide range of producers including Richard X, Xenomania, Johnny Douglas, Brian Higgins, Estelle and Paul Epworth. During this period, Dixon performed mononymously, known simply as "Alesha". "Lipstick" was released on 14 August 2006, and charted at 14 on the UK Single Charts. Dixon released her second single "Knockdown" on 30 October 2006, which charted at 25 on the UK Download Chart. However, on the official UK Singles Charts, the single peaked at number 45, falling down to 68 the following week. ==15th Anniversary==

To celebrate the album's 15th anniversary, "Fired Up" was released on "lipstick pink" vinyl on Friday 24 November 2023 (Black Friday Record Store Day). The release was limited to 500 units and marks Dixon's first album release on vinyl. The 15th Anniversary vinyl edition also features updated artwork, which re-creates the original UK artwork (albeit with slightly different font) and contains the album's 12 tracks in the originally-intended running order. On 22 March 2024, a yellow version of the vinyl was released. Similar to the pink version, this was a limited run of 500 units. ==Track listing==
