Nat's Idol search for lost love
SHE'S got a job ahead of her wooing fans to buy the "beautiful but boring" singer's music, but Australian Idol Natalie Gauci has revealed she hasn't given up hope of winning over the man she lost on her way to taking the title on this year's TV talent show.
The 26-year-old has released a B-side to her Idol winners single, inspired by her former boyfriend, backpacker Andrea Seidita.
"It's written about Andrea," Gauci said of All In My Mind, which she penned in the days after their very public break-up.
"When he left I was really upset, so I wrote that song. It's a ballad about heartbreak. It's probably one of my favourite originals. I'm really proud of it," she said recently.
The singer said she hoped to rekindle the romance - which ended as Idol began - when she takes a break mid-tour to visit her sister in India early next year.
"I said (to Seidita), 'feel free to come with me or I'm going on my own'," Gauci revealed.
"There's no expectation or pressure. And he's really sweet. He said, 'I don't want to hurt your feelings if I can't come' so that's nice."
The former music teacher has no regrets about choosing to focus on Idol over a relationship with Seidita, who is based in London.
"It's a time for me to focus on career," she said, adding, "the only problem is there's so much going on work-wise, you want someone to come home to and you don't have that."
"But if I'd had it the other way round I would probably have regrets."
