    I to you: Should have gotten a Run type of ending with key change and everything. I totally loved the snippet because I was expecting crazy vocals, but the full version lacks a climax.

    I'd like to think that this wasn't accidental! Maybe the song is like the situation that it's about on purpose: repetitive and changeless. Gives the feeling of a vicious circle

    Anyone heard Kelly's latest release from the album? It's her duet with John Legend, Run Run Run. It's the first song from the album that excites me with the first listen. I liked both Heartbeat Song and Invincible when I first heard them but not really amazed (impressed by the rare falsettos from Kelly in Invincible though). It took some time for both songs to grow on me. Run Run Run sounds really good and instant.

    Do we have any news about possible vocal collab on I Am? I'm really interested in a love song duet with a male artist. Those 'conversation' songs like Just Give Me A Reason would be perfect for Leona. The Trouble duet performance wasn't vocally perfect and lacked magic between Leona and the contestant but I was so amazed by how Leona killed performance and totally delivered the conversation vibe.

    Apparently it's a cover of Tokio Hotel's song.

    Do you have to be invited to attend the Brits or do you have to try and book yourself in if your a celebrity/singer? Because jamelia just said she was attending on loose women and she hasn't released anything in years!!!

    I wonder, if she recorded her songs in studio each week.
    "Summertime" and "Sorry seems to be the hardest word" were included on her first single CD back in 2006. Does anybody on here own an original copy of "A moment like this"?
    Did they put the studio version or live version onto the album?

    I'm sure I read that the audio from Summertime was recorded during her rehearsals, so it's technically live. It's just obviously mixed/mastered for a CD :) I would assume that was the same for SSTBTHW...

    Could be wrong though!

    Anyone thought about the fact that the other X Factor woman Alex is releasing apparently soon? Will that make a difference?

    Okay, because there is in fact a rehearsal version available on YouTube. So it might be the one taken from the CD.

    She's releasing it for free, it won't chart. She has no label atm as far as I know and she won't be promoting it either as she's doing the Bodyguard tour
