    Trouble is a pretty decent song but I don't see much chart success coming it's way. Top 10 next week, small fall the week after that due to the album being released (I think) and an obvious X Factor performance then out of the top 100 by the time X Factor ends.



    Surely Glassheart would have been a far more safer option considering it's a generic dance track and they sell by the bucket loads these days. Trouble isn't exactly a song that get's rotations and without her name would have flopped to extremes.

    I understand where you're coming from but I mean with just referring specifically to Leona, Glassheart would have been quite the departure.
    Trouble is too "by-the-numbers" for her and hasn't grabbed the public's attention.

    Well Glassheart is definitely a dance track, I don't hear anything generic about it though. Sounds quite progressive to me actually.

    Trouble is now available to download on iTunes. :)

    Alexandra Burke just released a generic dance album and it ruined her career. Leona's better off sticking to the Emeli/Lana/Paloma/Rebecca Ferguson/Adele sound that's popular at the moment.

    Trouble doesn't seem to be doing well on itunes so far. She is performing on X factor though, which will probably rescue the song.

    So sad that she seems almost entirely dependent on the XFactor to ensure her success. I thought by now she would have been able to move on in her own right.

    X Factor will change that.

    Yes but only half an hour ago or so it was in the #200's so it is rising very fast and that's without Leona having actually ever performed it live yet (she's only done a few acoustic radio sessions).

    I'm sure it'll get into the top ten with the next 24hrs.

    102 now, if capital had supported the track it'd be top 20 by now. I've downloaded my copy. :p

    Even if you have bought 20 copies which I highly doubt if you have bought them on iTunes only 1 copy counts towards the charts...

    That's ridiculous. Are you going to do that every release? For the rest of her career? And the next question: Why??

    You have to gift other copies to friends to make multi-buying count. Dreary song.

    Not a very encouraging start. I'm starting to worry for Leona. Hope this picks up

    She has to hope it picks up fast after her X Factor performance today but I am not surprised at the very slow start. Its a rubbish song and I said it first time i heard it. Never understand the cries on here about it being some epic mastepiece. I guess it shows how out of touch DS is or more how many Leona fans there are on here given a misrepresentation of her fanbase.

    Songs don't tend to peak until 6pm - 9pm on the day of release.. so later on will give a better indication of how this will do before promo.

    I'm really surprised it's not doing well, I remember when it premiered everyone on this forum was screaming number 1 smash. It deserves to be number one, tbh. :)

    Not I. Same happened to 'Collide' as well. Everyone seems to think they were universally embraced on DS.

    Meh, 'Collide' was better than this borefest.

    I made a prediction of #8 on another forum, it obviously wouldn't come close to Adele, SHM, Rihanna and Psy. I was thinking the promo would boost it into a low top ten place, but I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up at 11-13
