    Sorry WTF! Why is Rebecca Ferguson at #2 geez... some people are re-buying her album for the sake of 5 new songs. Yet an incredible album like Glassheart has slipped to #5

    I really hope tonight she can perhaps perform something from the album. Fireflies would sound incredible. I really hope she's not too sick to perform :(

    Y'all do know she's apparently singing twice tonight..?

    I think she may perform with other artists.
    Maybe the title song or so.

    Rebecca's album is unbelievable perhaps a lot of people buying it now never bought it the first time around rather than re-buying it for 5 additional tracks as you suggest... On another note, there are a number of artists that have had huge debut albums, less successful follow ups and under performing third albums. Examples include James Blunt and Mika. I hope Leona doesn't follow in their footsteps. But I have faith, SYCO just need to ensure she has single after single no stupid 6 month gaps like we've had in the past.

    She looks fantastic on This Morning.

    Eamonn Holmes is such a dick for bringing up the attack. He's always saying stuff he shouldn't. I remember when he was talking to Salma Hayek and she said she was Lebanese and he thought she said lesbian lmao!

    The performance was great for being sick... that was quite a close-up btw haha

    She looked and sounded amazing on This Morning! You could tell she was a bit ill though. I hope she rests her voice, wraps a scarf around her neck and drinks something nice a warm to prepare herself for later tonight :) If she is performing "Fireflies" I would be slightly worried, as she'll have to hit multiple F5s and a couple F#5s at the end of the song and being ill will make it difficult.

    At the moment the only site she's holding Jake off #1 is with Amazon :(

    I really do hope she gets to perform something like Fireflies. May be unlikely, but hopefully it's wishful thinking :D

    Really loved that performance today, and to be honest, I would not have know that she felt ill. She really pulls off great performances. I remember on XF when she completely lost her voice and still stunned with IWALY.
    Hope she is OK for the performance tonight. It said in my paper she will be singing Run.

    Sure about that?

    And, if Leona re-released her album with 5 new songs, I'd buy it too though ;)

    Imagine if after she sings "Run", Spirit has a huge surge and ends up going top 10. Wouldn't be hard with such low sales! I think it could return to the top 40 though :)

    Fireflies is such a huge song.

    It's an anthem.

    This Morning seems to have helped it out! Hopefully she'll kill it later (which I'm sure she will). I really hope she does "Run" at one part of the show, then later does "Fireflies" or the other way round, so she has a break between the two songs I think that would work best (IF she is performing "Fireflies" too).

    Leona's 'original' trouble is at number 29 on iTunes. I wonder if it'll overtake the rap version?

    Someone posted Leona's make up artist ( I think ) tweet saying she was performing twice

    Wow, listening to glassheart(song) again and it shocks me everytime how good the song is :eek:.lol

    I think the opening riff has something very significant like the one from Bleeding Love.
    You know, when people hear the beginning of the song, they scream and get on the dancefloor. LOL
