I still think this can be N1! and i think it is very very important that her first song reaches that.. I not going to go on about how i think it will just go into the top 10.. i am going to try promote it as much as i can myself to make sure it actually has a chance to reach that

Has anyone managed to download a HQ version of the video? I'm trying to edit the video to fit in with the Afrojack remix so if anyone could send me a download link it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm shocked everyone is ranking 'Collide' so high in terms of Leona's best music videos.

I would say the videos for 'Happy', 'Forgive Me', 'Bleeding Love' (UK), 'Better In Time' and 'Run' are all far better than 'Collide'. I just think a song that anthemic and euphoric deserved a far more energetic and interesting video. Having said that, Leona looks absolutely incredible and I still think Leona can go to #1. Hopefully it will stick around for a long time regardless of peak position.

One thing I'm really noticing on Twitter right now, is how many people are starting to call Leona "sexy". While many of us have always seen it, so many others seem be waking up to it - and the video is certainly helping!

And still with bucketloads of class.

I think Leona seems to have become far more comfortable with showing that aspect of herself since certain changes happened in her personal life.

I don't use twitter so that's interesting to know thank you I noticed comments on youtube from people all over too!

Yeah she looks like a proper popstar! Age-appropriate but classy at the same time.

I don't understand on the official Collide video why there isn't a link to preorder - all these people saying they love it but no available info about release and preorders - they are missing a golden opportunity here.

I've tried downloading it, but it never comes up in HD.

I do think her getting #1 depends on the promotion that week. If she is all over radio, and does get that slot on Red or Black, I think she may have a shot. I'm happy with top 5 and before now I was convinced #1 was out of the question, but we never know what promo they have planned I guess

Wow the views are growing quickly!

If you use Firefox, get an Add-on called Download Helper...when you're on the video page, you'll see the icon for DH in the toolbar becomes animated (meaning there's downloadable content on that page...) next to the animation you'll see a downward pointing arrow...click that, and it'll give you the various quality settings of the video....the 1080p is awesome!

Love the video!
Someone has put the video with just the 2nd part of Afrojack Mix. Would love to see a video with the full song.

I thought this was interesting. Cher Lloyd's Swagger Jagger has never once made it into the top 50 airplay chart but it still made #1.

^^ Think that's what Saz is trying to do

I think that's due to her fanbase, right? They're very dedicated. Most likely downloaded a LOT of times - most of the people who bought her song are people who use forums and the internet, whereas a lot of Le's potential sales are casual radio listeners I'd say.

Plus I don't think anyone who heard Swagger Jagger on the radio would be tempted to buy it her #1 was purely a #1 because it was Cher.

I keep fluctuating on this. My head says not to expect too much from sales of the song, but there is something about the responses to the video that give me a glimmer of hope. It is just so feel good and simply happy, and if somehow that can be communicated to enough people (not sure how) then it might surprise us.

Leona has never released a simple happy song before.

Yeah plus she's coming off the XF hype. It hasn't hung around in the charts either. I just thought I'd use it as an example though and show that Leona is capable of a top 5 even without airplay.
