I realized today I'm a weird Leona fan. lol. My favorite performance of hers in years is Diamonds. Listening to the Portugal version of it right now and she just sounds so beautiful and sweet. She makes the lyrics resonate with me.,
I finally figured out what it is about Leona Lewis that makes her the best singer in the world to me. I really love the sound of her voice.
Leona can sing the phone-book to me.
I just realized some of her performances i felt weren't that great or that something was missing and then I realized i was spoiled. I was waiting for that sustained note, I was anticipating that out of this world head voice and i knew when they would be released in every performance and expected them. Now i don't. I was listening to Leona today and just listening. Just hearing the song for what it was in that moment like it was the first time i ever heard her sing it and i fell in love with each song. Her voice is truly stunning.
Thank you for sharing your music Leona. I look forward to the next album.
Lily's cover for John Lewis ad was hinted at this time last year http://m.digitalspy.co.uk/music/news/a524157/lily-allen-to-cover-keane-for-2013-john-lewis-christmas-adverts.html#~oSRqliOp7wSrZY hopefully news for this year will appear soon. Although the boss for John Lewis recently said they over hyped the ad up too much last year so might be a longer wait. No doubt wishful thinking on our part, probably be a male for a change 😕. Oh well, for now we have hope . Any festive ad feature would be good though, obviously.
It would be nice if OMS features on Now Xmas album or other compilation albums. Pretty sure they've added the previous years JL song. Always great exposure from that.
Anyway, whatever the news is, thanks for alerting us Soe 👍👏👯

I was suggesting the Christmas acoustic on soundcloud while waiting (gelbmas idea) for the album and they replied that they appreciate our patience and that we'll get something within the next few weeks.
Could be anything though, might be even an ustream. We'll see
I'm checking everywhere for some news or something ... It's exciting something will be mentioned in the next few weeks ... I hope john lewis song or just her big comeback single. ... Is it true that Diane warren is writing it ? If she gives her a huge ballad song like Leann rimes, Aerosmith, Beyoncé etc had she will be huge again fingers crossed. Le le

Yeah she has worked with Diane Not sure if it's a single, but she did say the whole world would jam it, or something along those lines
Maybe Diane wrote a song for the John Lewis ad? She's also known for writing hit songs in movies so :cool:
Didnt we receive the info a few months ago that we would definitely get something new this year? maybe this is what is coming up in the next few weeks.

Ye, we were definitely meant to get something this year.
I'm not sure if it'll be the John Lewis song though - at least if it is, it won't be a song she worked on with Diane Warren, as the John Lewis campaign had already been worked out/planned before Leona went into the studio with Diane IIRC.
Edit: I'd love "Your Hallelujah" to be used as the John Lewis advert song, would be so amazing.

I think if it was the John Lewis advert it could be/probably will be a cover. It usually is and they know how a Leona cover sells near Christmas. I think the Diane stuff is more likely to be on the album rather than the ad.
Why are we sure she's the one who's doing it again?
We aren't, it's all speculation. But it ties in nicely with the "over the next few weeks" time frame, so could be quite possible. I just hope whatever it is, it is good. I don't want it to be something disappointing, like Leona opening her own vegan clothing line or something lol. Prefer if it was music-related.
What I'd love to see this year is one of the following things:
- Random X Factor performance - Ave Maria before Christmas.
- One or two new songs during her next gig in Switzerland
- Ustream with all news about her new album, music, direction etc.
- Behind the scene of the recording
- a special performance(s) of a new song(s) uploaded on her youtube channel like her Trouble, Colorblind, Come Alive, Glassheart acoustic performances.
What we will actually get:
- Leona raising Hopefield awareness by walking 10 miles with animal lovers.
But since she's not with SYCO and Modest anymore we could actually get something really surprising this time
Oh and I think JLewis ad is gonna be supported by Adele or Sam Smith this year.

that hair was flawless!!! /she sounds ill, wasn't she recording day or two before with Diane?/
PS I dont think Leona is in JLewis ad, that 'deal' is huge and we are not really used to huge stuff in last few years
No, she was recording with her a week before. 17-20 september.
So you mean she will NEVER have "huge stuff" anymore since she didn't get any the past few years? Not even with a different label and team?
She has performed on huge events in the last year though
I hate rum 😪😥
Your off my Christmas card list
- Random X Factor performance - Ave Maria before Christmas.
- One or two new songs during her next gig in Switzerland
- Ustream with all news about her new album, music, direction etc.
