With some presentations they managed to do very well in iTunes USA: Best Song Ever (One Direction), Say My Name (Destiny's Child) and Little Talks (Of Monsters and Men) made it to the Top 30 in iTunes USA and the presentations of Say Something (A Great Big World) and Gravity (Sara Bareilles) guaranteed the couple the coveted #1 on iTunes USA.
Shortly after winning the X Factor, Alex & Sierra signed to Columbia Records and in January 2014 started writing songs for their first album. In May, the couple's first single "Scarecrow" came out.
In October 2014 they released the first album "It's About Us", which has the success "Little Do You Know". In August 2016 they released the EP "As Seen on TV", with 8 tracks, containing covers of songs they sang on The X Factor, and some new ones.
In 2017 the couple announced that they had ended the relationship more than a year ago and would not continue making music together, starting their solo career.

Do you miss me anymore?
Is your heart as empty as these arms that used to hold you
Are you tired?
Are weaker than before?
Are you thinking?
'Cause I've been thinking that there's something missing?
Hmm, it's you
Oh wo-oh, it's you
Now I'm without you
I'm feeling insecure about the little things
I guess the little things of what we lost
But all I remember brings me back to you and all those little things,
I'm not anything without you
I grew tired of all the empty promises
You had me up for play so high
Now I'm down in the ground and there's no one around
All this love that I gave to you
In your arms I asked you to kiss me
Over and over again
Now I'm without you
I'm feeling insecure about the little things
I guess the little things of what we lost
But all I remember brings me back to you and all those little things,
I'm not anything without you
And your mind is wondering out the door
And your body's got no where to fall
And it seems so clear but your heart's not sure
Now I'm without you
I'm feeling insecure about the little things
I guess the little things of what we lost
But all I remember brings me back to you and all those little things,
I'm not anything without you
But all I remember brings me back to you without those little things
When I anything
The song Back to You by Alex & Sierra is an emotional ballad about missing someone who used to be close to you. The singer asks a series of questions to this person, wondering if they are feeling the same loneliness and emptiness that she is feeling since their relationship ended. She talks about how she feels insecure and incomplete without this person, and how even the little things remind her of him causing her to long for him.
In the chorus, she speaks about how her mind and heart are conflicted about her feelings for him. Her mind tells her that she needs to move on, but her heart is not ready to let go. She sings about how she grew tired of empty promises and how the love she gave him was not enough to make him stay. The bridge represents her final plea to him to come back to her, as she is not complete without him. She recognizes that even though she can remember the relationship and how it ended, she still longs to have him back as part of her life.
Overall, the song is a reminder of the pain of losing someone you love and how even the little things can cause you to miss them more.

Now I'm down in the ground and there's no one around
Feeling left alone and unloved
All this love that I gave to you
Reflecting on all the love that was given to you
In your arms I asked you to kiss me, over and over again
Remembering the moments of passion we shared when we were together
And your mind is wondering out the door
Realizing that you're no longer present in the moment and that your mind is elsewhere
And your body's got no where to fall
Feeling like you have no place to turn, nowhere to seek comfort
And it seems so clear but your heart's not sure
Feeling torn between what your head knows and what your heart feels
But all I remember brings me back to you without those little things, when I anything
Realizing that even though we had our problems, all I want is to be with you, regardless of the small things that caused our separation

I remember being 14 and listening to this album. Almost Home and Little Do You Know and Back To You have been on my playlist for years.
I remember being 15 and listening to their magic and crying into my pillow because back then, I didn't see their music as just pertaining to a love interest.
I remember being 16 and listening to Back To You on loop after my first heartbreak, wondering if I'd ever be able to go back to the boy I loved, wondering if I could ever forgive him.
I remember being 17 and moving on from Alex and Sierra. To other artists, to other people. I remember a year of grief and pain where I lost my touch with everything.
Now I'm losing my grip on reality again. And just when I'm running on fumes, a friend tells me to listen to Alex and Sierra because he wants me to cover one of their songs.
I'm 19 now and I've come back to you.
