It's a shame that Don't Give Up is so low. It should have been on the album, but I guess being the bonus track on the single a lot of people who just bought the album won't have heard it! He co-wrote it too!

I agree. But it is interesting to see that a number of key songs on the album are played frequently. I still maintain that with a better management team behind him Leon would still be signed to a record label.

Yeah having a good management team would have made all the difference methinks.

Buble was a distraction, and led to nothing, Leon is and will be far more contemporary IMO.

Thats if he ever get his rump into gear and gets an album out.

True. Leon might have the perfect crooners voice and it could have led to a very successful career if he had been handled properly and given the right opportunities. However, he has an amazingly versatile voice and can sing anything of any genre.
He did a fantastic job with the album and it will always be very special, but I think his voice is better now than ever and the acoustic style he is singing now suits his voice perfectly.

lol Grumpy drawers

Is this a form of "Grumpiness"?

April approaches and Leons pie is just about pinky enough

Leon is far too quiet. Hopefully it means he's working hard on some new songs and the album!

Yeah, its not about winning these days it seems, as many people are fickle and don't support the artist afterwards. Its best to use it as a platform. It will give Sean a much larger profile and introduce him to a lot of new fans. Would be good if he could get in the top 3 though!

Ha-ha The Sentence made no sense, "better" missing. Still our brains compensate.

Do we think Leon is having to supplement his income by working?

Well one does wonder how he is managing financially when he has hardly done any gigs this past 18 months.
