Wow that cover is excellent! 
The Leona Lewis Appreciation Thread (Part 29)

Collide is #27 in The Official UK Top 40 Singles Chart this week.
Chart run so far: 4-10-18-27
One more week in the top 40 definitely, two weeks is very doubtful.

I think the fact she is doing this kind of confirms she will be on US x factor - i reckon she will be on both

Apparently its not on TV but you can watch a stream on facebook if you pay. Idk, thats what I read on another forum, although to be fair, most of the posters on that forum are in the US so that could just be the situation there. Would be kinda odd if it wasn't broadcast though

I agree, hopefully they get it right in the US this time
So far they've done the right thing by delaying to March/April over there. I love that performance for three reason though:1. Leona
2. Rihanna getting pissed off at Miley
3. Nicole Scherzinger's face when Natasha Bedingfield screams the word miracle
I'm a Sophomore in High School (in the US cause this is pretty significant 
) And last night we had our homecoming, so halfway through the dance the DJ started taking requests, so I went up and requested Collide. He played it, and to my surprise everyone LOVED it Honestly, this song isn't dead in the US. This is the type of music we love right now, so with the right promoting, this song could do very good. I think she should perform Collide, Run or Glassheart on the US X Factor.

I once requested OMH at a London boat party, sadly it didn't get played.

LMAO.
Happy alert on X Factor.
I requested Collide at a club here in the US and it was played...after I left, my friend called me and told me they finally did play it.
But I've called local radios numerous times to play the song and they keep telling me they will play it but don't. Finally I called and asked why and they said that they "don't have the song in the studio."
Radio stations like KISS FM don't play songs unless they have the physical copy apparently and KISS stations hold a huge impact on Top 40 airplay (Similar to Radio One in the UK). I'm guessing this means it was never officially sent out to US airplay and only as a promo/club single?

Oooo, the rare I Will Be choice being used on X Factor. Looks like they are scraping the barrel in terms of emotional music.

I even requested the regular version and everyone loved it
I've always wanted to request OMH, but I figured they would never play it since it wasn't a single...
After much thought I've decided it's a good decision to delay Glassheart.These are my reasons:
-Leona hasn't got much international momentum going at the moment
-Collide under-performed to an extent
-There seemed to be an indecisiveness in regards to the next single.Which is a definite red flag.Because if a body of work is completed and sealed off, there should always be a plan B in the event plan A failed.
_Adele has proven there is a niche in the market for mid/slow tempo type songs,which didn't seem the main direction of Glassheart and is Leona's biggest strength.
_A delay shows the record company realise they have to get it right this time after the Echo fiasco.Being proactive(hopefully)instead of reactive.
I think sending a single in late November to US radio stations is the way to go.Give it time to build.If I recall,The stations there would start focusing on Christmas songs by December?So it won't start impacting until about January.My time frame may be off but anyone in the know please correct me if I'm wrong.
Finally I think a duet with a contestant like Leona did with Take That is the only way to go for Xfactor US.Not performing at all would be to big of a missed opportunity.
