More Than A Dream

More Than A Dream is the fourth studio album by Emily Henning, released on November 22, 2010 via Saturdays Records. The album incorporates a bright and breezy pop sound and was described by Henning as being more "colourful" than its predecessor Only Human (2009). Upon its release, More Than A Dream received mixed reviews from music critics, with some praising its fun and club-friendly nature, but many labelling it as a "regression" from the dark and ethereal sound Henning achieved with Only Human. The album also had mixed commercial success; despite debuting at #1 in the UK, selling 104,589 copies in its first week of release, it was Henning's first album not to achieve a Diamond certification. Ultimately the album sold 947,000 copies.

Three singles were released from the album. The first single, "On The Ground", was released on October 15, 2010. It became Henning's fourteenth number-one single. A second single, "Blush (Response)", followed in March 2011 and also topped the Singles Chart. The third and final single from the album, "Rulebreaker" was released in September 2011. "Rulebreaker" failed to match Henning's earlier successes however, charting at #2 and ending the singer's run of fourteen consecutive number-one singles. The Elice Claire penned "I Surrender" had been scheduled for release as the album's fourth single, but was cancelled following the disappointing sales of "Rulebreaker".

Background
Following the release of her Shellesha penned album — Only Human — in 2009, Emily was reportedly eager to begin working on her own "poppier sounding" material. She started writing songs for a potential new album in early 2010, whilst collaborating with a number of songwriters, including Elice Claire.

During this time Emily was struggling with the pressures of fame, a slew of media invasion and the recent loss of her husband, Carl Reeves. TBC
