CHERYL Cole will release a survival anthem to celebrate beating her near- death malaria scare.

The Geordie beauty has chosen new single Promise This because of its lyrics – which relate to her battling for life in intensive care.

And loveable Cheryl is set to complete her comeback by performing the up-tempo single for the first time on The X Factor’s live shows in October.

I’m told the Lady Gaga-like tune is a certain No.1 after becoming an instant hit with radio station bigwigs.

Seeing as I’ve not heard it yet I can only imagine what the lyrics are.

But something tells me she would have struggled to find words to rhyme with malaria or mosquito. The best I could come up with was “nothing scarier” and “Mojito”. Enough said!

A source close to the star told me: “Cheryl’s comeback song is called Promise This.

“It was actually written months ago and although it’s not directly talking about her illness there is a strange lyrical twist that ironically relates to her recent near-death experience.

“It is similar to the way Fight For This Love related to her marriage drama.”

The nation’s sweetheart will film the video in LA any day now and fans will get to listen to the song for the first time in a few weeks when it gets its first play on Radio 1.

I’m told Cheryl will then fly back to Blighty for the finals of X Factor where she will give her first live performance of the track.

My mole added: “A release date hasn’t been confirmed for the single but there’s talk Cheryl could perform on the second live show after Joe McElderry.

“It’s a huge comeback track and Cheryl absolutely loves it.

“There’s a lot of pressure on her to follow up her first album with another multi-platinum seller.

“But everyone agrees she is back with her best material yet.” As a huge fan of the tough Geordie cookie I never doubted it for a second!

I hate Cheryl!!! SO MUCH!! She's not a Princess, she's a convicted criminal for Pete's sake!

I do, however, like her music... :$

You can bet that they'll have about 1,387 dancers lined up to make the performance 'amazing' or 'utterly brilliant'. I feel for Dannii, she's probably been told to give her a standing ovation against her will.

Her performance last night was pretty good! Not her best, but I did quite enjoy it.

Cheryl Cole effortlessly sprints to her second number one single as she claims the highest non-charity sales of the year.

Promise This is the introductory single from Cole’s second solo album Messy Little Raindrops and her performance of the track on The X Factor results show eight days ago (October 24) helped it to secure first week sales of 157,210 – the best for a single by a female solo artist since her own Fight For This Love opened with sales of 292,846 a year ago last week, and the best for any single any week this year, except for the 453,426 copies that Helping Haiti’s charity cover of Everybody Hurts sold on its first week in the shops some 37 weeks ago. Including her hits as member of Girls Aloud and collaborations, Promise This is Cole’s 27th Top 75 entry, her 20th Top five entry and her sixth number one. More curiously, although there have been 1,147 number ones, only two have had Promise in their titles – Cole’s current hit, and The Promise, the last number one for Cole and her Girls Aloud colleagues, two years ago this week.

She has had such a remarkably successful career, in such a short space of time, with better chart history (in terms of peaks) than veterans such as Barbra Streisand, Donna Summer, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, and more

LOL why are you comparing her to those 'divas'?

I wonder if she'll be able to keep her top 5 singles peak with her next bunch... I love 'The Flood' but I fail to see what else could be successful on this atrocious album of hers.
