Standing Tall is the debut studio album, and only solo album to date, by former Hear'Say singer Kym Marsh. It was released on 21 July 2003[4] in the United Kingdom by Island Records.

The album was preceded by two single releases: "Cry", the lead single, and "Come on Over" which reached number 2 and 10 respectively on the UK Singles Chart.
