Its successor, "She Said", was released in April 2010; attaining European chart success—peaking at number three in the UK, number two in Ireland and number ten in Germany. The album followed the tracks' release on 9 April 2010, debuting at number-one on the UK Albums Chart; having since been certified as triple platinum by the British Phonographic Industry. A further five singles were released from the studio album: "Prayin'", "The Recluse", "Love Goes Down", "Writing's on the Wall" and "Hard Times"—the latter of which featured additional vocals from Elton John and Paloma Faith.
