The chances of her not doing Sweet about Me are ZERO considering it has been by far her biggest hit.

I also much prefer On A Mission although Sweet About Me is actually quite a clever song in itself.

It was unexpected for me. I thought it might have been an unknown act or one that not as popular as Gabriella. Not really a fan of her but she can sing live, from what I'v seen anyway.

It is unexpected, I was almost certain it would be One Republic or Jordin Sparks, but I'm still pretty underwhelmed by her. But like I said somewhere else, I suppose nobody goes to see the support act.

She's very good live, with a stunning voice.

I've seen her play Led Zep's "Whole lotta of love" a few times and it's an excellent rendition.

There's quite a few versions on YT. I just linked to the first so there may be better ones.....

I've read who's supporting Pink on 11/6- Hockey, VV Brown and Butch Walker.

Now I've heard of the first two, but who is Butch Walker?

I agree- Leona's a one trick pony - her music is so samey.

And what as that got to do with anything?

if you're referring to my username it's a tribute to the much loved character from ITV's 70's sitcom "Love thy neighbour".
I wouldn't have pissed on that millionaire molester if he was on fire!

Yeh it was great hearing Gabriella as a rock chick, thanks!

Leona has an excellent singing voice but she runs the risk of being overshadowed by Gabriella who has more flair and charisma. Gabriella is also talented for writing her own songs.

Agreed don't really like Leona but Gabriella 's new album has exceeded my expectations, On A Mission is an instant disco classic

I don't think gabriella's voice suits her new sound. On a lot of the songs on her new album she just sounds strained, but then on others she sounds fantastic so it's pretty patchy. personally I hate support acts. No one is there to see them, there's always an air of desperation to their performances. Bring on the main event!

I say this as a Leona fan, but anyone at a Leona concert is not there for 'flair' or 'charisma', they are there for an 'excellent singing voice.' I mean, had they picked like that little Charice girl or someone like that I would get your point.
