not playlisted on R1, be lucky if the song reaches top 40 when released. But Leona, doesn't care as usual, she's off in Paris probably performing for some French horses in a stable or something..
The rate she is going..
Leona will be singing in pubs soon..
shes fading away fast..
If lovebird flops, i dont see this album doing well..
Will most likely end up with Leona going back to the US and not going on twitter for WEEKS like before i bet
It doesnt make sense that the most radio friendly song on the album doesnt get playlisted.The rolling stones,prince, and jake bugg got playlisted,but not leona? Sonething is just not right.Is it possible that radio is purposely snubbing ,leona?
You're right there, it's all about Radio. Though I agree with the bold.
As for the chart statistics, Rod Stewart is obviously Rod Stewart. Mumford have the acclaim, a strong fanbase through touring and support from Alternative stations. Similar to Muse. Big touring acts always sell well.
Yes I can honestly see Leona becoming a Celine Dion type artist and putting out albums every couple of years but never having a big commercial Pop hit again. Which wouldn't bother me. She might be better off focussing her attention on the Adult market as they will purchase her albums time and time again if she gives them what they need.
I would really love Leona to become a big touring act, but doubt her voice would hold up.
Unless Leona magically discovers another Bleeding Love (unlikely) I completely agree with this. Personally I do not believe that Glassheart as a single would have done any better than Trouble did. Leona's time in the harsh spotlight has come and gone IMO although obviously I hope for her sake that I am wrong.
IMO its Leonas own fault for what has happend to her career
its her own fault because she went into hiding for so long and had massive gaps where she was so silent from the world..
This had an effect as people forgot about her and i think she thought she wouldn't.
she only really goes on about how much she loves her fans when there is something to sell.. blegh
I am gutted really.. I do wonder whats going to happen to her when Lovebird does not even make the top 20.. :S
I also agree with enviroment, she needs to SHOCK now if she has ANY chance.. - Glassheart and then Come Alive will be the only two that can save her.. in that order
IMO its Leonas own fault for what has happend to her career
its her own fault because she went into hiding for so long and had massive gaps where she was so silent from the world..
It has nothing to do with the gaps. Watch Adele going straight to #1 when she finally releases her third album. Or just take a look at Celine Dion now.. "Parler à mon père"
Is lovebird really done? Could it get playlisted next week?
No, not at all. It could still surprise us and doing very well in TV play and the TV performances could give a significant boost to the song. BBC Radio 2 could also still playlist if we're lucky.
If Leona records a new album, I want all uptempos with the exception of a couple ballads and few mid tempos. I think she should go the dubstep route (she does it well).
It seems that the music currently doing well is very different to what Leona has produced in this album, Glassheart and Come Alive being exceptions ofcourse
If I was in charge of a Top 40 radio station and I didn't love Leona so much, I probably wouldn't playlist Lovebird either. Releasing a soppy, middle-of-the-road single like Lovebird after an underperforming lead single like Trouble was never going to get radio support. Glassheart is/was her only chance. The lack of public appearances and the Fireflies fiasco didn't help either.

I've actually got the opposite thought. I want Leona to have more rock or live sounds in her music. I like how Leona can take rock songs and 'Leonafy' them. I'm not talking about "rock rock" but alternate or soft rock. Rock inspirated ballads would be awesome! I've been listening to Grace Potter & The Nocturnals lately and would love Leona on her kind of music
I've loved that song since that snippet leaked ages ago, I need the full!
Would love to hear Leona's vocals on that.
YAAAAS you know the tea Ske. Leona would slay the charts! I don't get why Syco are so afraid of releasing a uptempo. Collide didn't perform as well because it's not that good/drama mess

1. "Glassheart"
2. "Come Alive"
As the One-Two punch of the worldwide campaign.

Love you leona, i will still buy your music ofc
Celine hasnt had a hit song in over 10 years,and there is a big difference in,their ages.Leona is 27 and celine is in her 50s.
Sorry, but this is not true.
Celine Dion is extremely successful.
Her Taking Chances album was and she was selling well.
And Celine was doing those Las Vegas shows non stop and every of it was sold out.
Doing succesfull concerts is more worth than selling albums nowadays
In addition her French albums are also very successful.

That sounds good but unortunately it doesn't seem realistic
Something like this would be nice

I'd love to hear Leona on this. Such an amazing song! It was sang on The Voice and has shot the song up Itunes
YAAAAS you know the tea Ske. Leona would slay the charts! I don't get why Syco are so afraid of releasing a uptempo. Collide didn't perform as well because it's not that good/drama mess
yeah Shake You Up would slaaaaay!
I stan for Sugar, better than half songs on Standard CD, dunno why it was pushed onto Deluxe

I need leona to sing a song like this
The decision not to include Sugar on the standard album really baffles me!
These type of songs are for people with limited vocal talent, hence why they are so overproduced. Leona does not fall under that category.
Pretend to be nick grimshaws friend/lover/whatever and she'll be a-listed straight away
