''Marcus Collins'' is the self-titled debut studio album by Marcus Collins, who finished as the runner-up of the eighth series of ''The X Factor''. The album was released in Ireland on 9 March 2012 and on 12 March 2012 in the UK.
==Background==
For just the third time in the history of ''The X Factor'', a judge continued to work with a contestant after the show; the first time being after Leona Lewis won the show's third series in 2006 and the second being after Jedward finished sixth in the show's sixth series in 2009. Collins' mentor Gary Barlow continued working with him after the final, and in December 2011, offered to join him in the studio to record some material to pitch to a record label. In January 2012, Collins signed a record deal with RCA Records, which would see his debut album be release in March 2012. Barlow subsequently offered to help write, oversee and produce the album. Collins began recording the album on 1 January 2012. The album's tracklisting was unveiled on 11 February 2012. It contains eight original recordings, as well as covers of "Seven Nation Army", "Tightrope" by American singer Janelle Monáe and Collins' version of "(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher", a song he performed on ''The X Factor''.
In terms of the album's actual musical background, when questioned in May 2012 by Blues & Soul about its retro-Motown and northern soul influences Collins stated: "I absolutely love the fact you've just mentioned northern soul, because when we were in the studio that was something that we really CONNECTED to. You know, I was watching YouTube videos of all the dancing and things from way back that I'd never SEEN before. And, because I thought it was really cool, we did try and put as many references in there as we could from the Sixties and the artists from that time that had really inspired me - Diana Ross & The Supremes, The Temptations..."〔(Marcus Collins interview by Pete Lewis, 'Blues & Soul' May 2012 )〕
