    It, along with Bleeding Love just now and Run earlier, were in their countdown of 'Best Selling Singles of the Millennium'.

    Not sure about the other two but Bleeding Love came in at number 21 with sales of 1,027,000.

    Who cares what he does, Leona cares deeply for animals and I love her for that.

    Wow, short snippet for Glassheart-song "Cry"

    But what happened to her voice, it's so deep? But as least it includes a whistle, yeah.

    You're always negative, that's what.. I know we're already waiting for ages, but stay positive and it will go faster.

    I don't mind the waiting.

    Leona commented last november and said that the album was getting delayed untill march.We find out in feb from amazon that it aint coming out till nov,march came and went and leona didnt even comment about the new delay.Now here it is may and we have no idea when the single or album are coming out.We can assume that its coming out in nov but how do we know for sure.Right now its anybodys guess.

    I totally agree with you.
    At this stage we totally have the right to be negative sometimes and just be frustrated.
    I feel like the communication between Leona and her fans has died.
    I know, many of you are going to say: Don't be negative. Everything will be fine.
    Let's be honest: the whole situation is a mess. Leona could have been a huge worldwide star. And it's sad to see that a talent like Leona doesn't get any attention.

    I think there is a huge difference between being realistic and optimistic. After 1000 mistakes since 2009, I can only be realistic.

    I mostly blame Syco for destroying her career, but I also blame Leona for not giving us a tiny bit of information about her music. She always keeps everything so secret, we have to find every bit of info on the net. It's just annoying.

    A mess it is. She's not saying anything but "it's coming" for ages. I'm sorry but that's not good enough. It's May for freekin sake. I know she probably has no clue as well and that things are probably up to labels' choice but I'd prefer her to come out and say 'all right guys, you're all asking me when the album is coming out and to be honest with you, I'm not sure' than being silent. That's one of the reasons she'll never have huge fanbase, because there aren't many loons like us who are ready to accept that kind of treatment.

    Exactly.
    Leona earns millions of dollars because we supported her, we literally gave her this money because of buying her music.
    That's not the way you should treat your fans.
    We worked as hard as her to get her to the top and we still keep on supporting her, but she really gives NOTHING back.

    I really dont think you can just fault her, its mainly syco and simon cowell.

    Do you think I lived on a stone for the past few months? I know about the delay and about the lack of information we have.

    I just hate it to read every single time that the promotion will be a mess, that she won't be as successful as she was etc ...

    Ofcourse you have the right to say that it's getting annoying, but puhlease stop putting Leona down, she's working her butt of to give us the best album she has made. So be patient and let her finishing her album.

    As I have said before I don't blame Leona for anything except the fact that she really keeps everything secret and we don't hear from her like 6 months.

    What about doing a U-Stream every month? What about joining this forum and talking to us? What about talking to us fans on Twitter? What about giving us some infomartion on the music? She doesn't have to reveal details but she can still share something with us.

    And that's what I hate too ... Blaming people if you don't know anything about it.. Ok, they could have done things different, but who says it's their decission? This delay is Leona her 'fault' .. I mean , she wants to record more cause she was inspired. I don't blame her though, I can wait for this masterpiece.

    It's commonly known that Syco is pure shit, I am sorry for saying Shit :). Even among non-Leona-fans!!!!!!!
    Do you know what they did wrong since 2009? I can give you 100 examples if you wish.

    I dont think so,she had the whole album recorded and got told by management to rerecord most of the album.

    Give me 5 of your best where you can prove that it is Syco's fault.

    I don't want to go into detail and I don't know exactly who did it (possibly someone who manages her career) but you can check older threads, but a lot of this was during the offical forum times:
    1. I will be release deasaster
    2. Happy - US absence for a few months. No radio promotion.
    3. I got you / I see you confusion
    4. Collide Release (Maybe have also been due to the Avicii thing)
    5. Dance-route , No-Dance-route, release Cover-EP-instead, don't know what to do. Perform Collide everywhere, oh not, Run instead. .....

    You already know me by now LOOOOL :D:D:D

    Iluzionista@: LOL. I guess they will figure, if there's an economic crisis in 2050. Because it would be better to release Glassheart in 2051 then.
