A New Years Eve song mystery…

This is going to be like trying to find a needle in a haystack but here goes!
Im trying to find an female artist whose album I listened to constantly for about a year and I can’t for the life of me think what her name was or what the album was called. I can’t even remember the year apart from I was pregnant so it was either 2004/5 or 2010.
Can’t even remember the songs at all apart from there was one on there that my Mum loved…she passed away on Boxing Day and I would love to be able to listen to it again.
I have a feeling she was English and maybe had 2 first names…but could be completely wrong. It’s not Corrine Bailey Rae but that sort of type of Music not massively popular like Little Mix or Adele.
I’ve spent all night searching Spotify but have no idea what I’m looking for!
I also think the album cover was black and white maybe!
Does that ring any bells with anyone?

Yay! I'm glad I could help Smile I really loved her first album in particular but no one seems to remember her anymore. Sorry for what you're going through.

Thank you so much. I didn’t think for one minute anyone would be able to work it out from my random clues…I think the only thing I got right is that she was British (and it was from 2004).
She has an amazing voice but not very well known.
My Mum had Vascular Dementia so I’ve been expecting this for a long time but in the end it happened very quickly for which I’m very grateful. Just trying to get memories of what she was like before and this album brings back many happy memories so thank you again.
