Omg, I was watching the adverts and heard the exact same piano intro as "Your Hallelujah" (just the opening couple of keys) on a mcdonalds advert but then it became a completely different song.
I really hope one of the christmas adverts will use a Leona song like the BBC Xmas advert last year!
I've just read the blog. I am so glad that Leona is free and can't wait to hear what she comes up with. I also hope that this means she will feel able to express herself more in interviews.
I've read Steve Brookstein's book this week and the controlling nature of Syco is all the way through. They're a hit machine, not really about the music.
Whatever happens with this new album, I'm 100% behind Leona.:)
I'm so glad Leona is sharing this. It seems her next record will be her most personal, and I think it will be the record I've been waiting for from Leona. Her albums have been great but it's always frustrated me knowing that Leona has more in her, and to this day hasn't made a record to do her justice. I think the next one will hit the mark. I hope she talks a bit about the all of this in interviews and becomes a bit more open, people would really start relating to Leona if they saw this side of her.
I think the lead single will be a very empowering mid-tempo anthem about finding yourself again or something. Can't wait for this album now!
Haha, do you always end up banned by attacking those b*tches?
I usually get unbanned and 10 days after I'm banned again But that's basically because I still have warning points, I had like a 3point warning and two 2point warning which lasts 3 months and 2 months each until they expire So I still had 7 when I was unbanned, it didn't take long to get those other 3
The blog really comfirms how rubbish Syco is at nurturing talent. I think we will be in for a real treat in the new album. I have a feeling it will be her best yet, and her heartbreaking experieces will be recorded in song. It sounds as if it will be real emotional, would love Leona to have her Adele moment. At least she is in a happy place now.
I hope other XF alumni take note, if Leona has been treated so shabbily the same can happen to them.
I really find it hard to watch XF now, the show is a travesty of its former self.
I'm feeling very optimistic for Leona at the moment. Had a listen through CWL and Glassheart and I realised that she's got vocally better since Glassheart but even with Glassheart she's got a new tone to her voice which is a bit Tracy Chapman esq and is better at conveying songs. Also, Mr Right, One More Sleep and Ave Maria (oh and Winter Wonderland) are fantastic songs - I know some are covers. It's all looking good for Leona. She sang brilliantly so far at that charity gig. I don't know about the dress though. I think that she might want to dress a little better during promotions.

I'm 100% sure she'll have a totally different style when the new era begins

I love her version of that song.

Well I doubted you too haha.
I really hope we get a video of "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday" and she does the D6.
I'd never lie

Peak this year if I'm not wrong.
Woo yes it is! Hopefully it'll be top 200 very soon!!

Can't there be a single Leona thread without half of the comments being horse shade -.-
There won't as soon as I'm unbanned :cool:
