Olly has released singles, but not all were succesful.

He has done pretty bad actually throughout most of the year.

His album has not sold more than Echo which you hav failed to mention.
Leona released two singles and it sold upward to 650,000. Olly has sold 600,000 with 4 singles.

Leona will do fine i'm sure, i think this is good, the break and the a;bum revamp will be good.

Hopefully they will change the album art!

She's already started her induction at Waitrose.

Aww^^ we all know Waitrose will be employing your favourites (JLS & Cher Lloyd) before Leona :-P

Marlon's working the deli counter at Morrisons, I hear.

Poor Leona, I was really interested to hear some stuff more similar to Collide, it was a really interesting direction she was heading in. Hopefully the original tracks will leak online. I'd love to hear more.

As far as I can see, they had 9/10 tracks they have had reviewed and they came back really positive. My whole take on it is that they've found that THAT sound is going down really well, so they're trying to record some more songs in that style - or they may be re-working them to sound more as a 'whole' album.

Trouble, Blank Page, Fireflies, Mountains, Sugar, Burn, Glassheart are the one's that have been 'reviewed' (Glassheart being on that she's actually performed live too). There is another one which appeared recently called 'Favourite Scar', too.

I guess only time will tell!

LOL i'm betting there are many people that would say the same about Leona's.

This really, although I'm gutted about the delay I look forward to hearing more new material - especially if it follows the suit of Glassheart!

I hope she does good!

If anyone wants to hear the ACTUAL direction of Leona's new album, listen to these two songs

Leona co-wrote two of the songs with Emeli, and they were both produced by NaughtyBoy, so this is pretty much the 'sound' you'll be expecting to hear from it.

Yep, can't wait to hear this sort of sound from Leona. Let's hope the label haven't scrapped Trouble or Mountains!

This worries me...

Delaying and changing tracks/sound/style of the record will make people preepmt a flop (yes Bionic I'm looking at you!)

I don't want to rehashed second rate version of GlassHeart, I want the original! And I certainly don't want to wait another 5 months for it!

Leona should ditch SYCO and get a label that knows what they're doing and will promote her career properly IMO.

I don't think they are ditching it, I think they're just adding more tracks in the sound they already have... like I said, they already have a set sound which has been sent out to get reviewed and has come back positive, but Leona was on about the album only being 10 tracks - I reckon that they've got a good set of songs and want to continue expanding the album so they've got at least 4 or 5 on top of those.

Another thing is, have you seen how PACKED the releases are with X-Factor acts this Christmas? Not to mention Rihanna is bringing out a new album, and Gaga is rumoured to be re-releasing BTW (or releasing an EP)... It's probably best she release next year.

Really glad about this. I was worried about the album delay but this is brilliant news and I now believe the reason for the delay has nothing to do with the quality of the album.

I tend to roll my eyes in disbelief when people say "it's he/she's best work". Majority of the time it isn't.
