I love it, took me a couple listens to get into it, but it is a great song.

I see it being a grower, I honestly wish she performed Glassheart instead since I don't know anyone that hasn't loved that on the first listen.

It's always hard with songs that eventually grow on you because you honestly don't like them at first, so I think a week from now I will be loving it.

But it was in no way a disappointment, so I'm happy about it .

I agree.

I think it'll be a grower.

I wish she'd do more mid tempos without that dark edge. Like she used to do.

Apparently she was supposed to perform GlassHeart but it was replaced by Collide last min. I wish she had performed that instead.

Come Alive is amazing btw!! Love it.

I was really surprised, I think the production is fantastic. Very dark.

her lower range and dictation needs work

but what use is having a dance track when she is not a dancer

we already know she has the voice

I actually like that, it's different.

side note: She needs to either stay away from the lower notes or work hard on them. They sound a mess in there.

I disagree it's dance. It's not exactly the cousin of Starships or even Collide.

Quite catchy, but not something I was expecting. Glad Leona's slowly making a comeback, the GH era should be great.

Finally something that could work so well.
It is so different and so catchy after a while!

It would do well on radio I think!

Yes finally the album looks to be going good!!!!

really liked her set ...she is definetly developing as an artist.... her reggae version of better in time mixed with man down was great ...and the new song sounded great.....strangely the low point was collide (it just didnt work live). I am excited for the new album.

Didn't like her opening number with Wrench 32 but agree with you she demonstrated she's developing as an artist and her reggae version of BIT was just awesome!!! I like her set too and in a way the new single was the highlight to me, just because it was so unexpected and sounded really good live.

PS - As for Collide, it never worked for me and unless she reworks it for her live performances it never will...

Really wasn't impressed by it and was so disappointed and even disappointed with the whole performance.

I now love all the performances and I'm addicted to this song, LOVE IT, and especially the lyrics,

Glassheart is epic, come alive isn't as good but still amazing.

And there is still another bunch of tracks to come, this album is gonna be shithot.
