Toni Braxton is totally back-ston

Toni Braxton will be best remembered for all those horrible ballads. This is a shame because songs like 'He Wasn't Man Enough' and 'Hit The Freeway' were way better than 'Breathe Again' or 'Unbreak My Heart' and this is a fact.

Fortunately for the hearing-able world at large, her new single is a brilliant dance track and makes the whole Whitney Houston comeback seem even more lacklustre than it was when we were all shrugging off 'Million Dollar Bill' a few short months ago.

Toni's new single is called 'Make My Heart' and it's very much like the sound Janet Jackson has been (unsuccessfully) pioneering over the past couple of years ('Make Me Move' - number 73 in the UK). It's relentless electRo'n'B thing which will probably have a video featuring Toni engaging in a vigorous dance routine while lines of muscled dancers do likewise behind her.

We are not going to pretend that 'Make My Heart' is going to be a hit single, but it is very good.
