Footprints in the sand is one of the best ballads ever. The lyrics are probably some of the best lyrics ever written in my opinion and her voice in the song is just phenomenal. I think it's very underrated and definately in her top 3 ballads in my opinion.

I personally really don't like fingerprint and think its the worst song she has produced. I think it is that bad that they should have just not included the song on the album.
She has so many unreleased songs that are mind losing that could have quiet easily slotted into glassheart that are so much better.

One of my personal favorite songs are definitely You Bring Me Down and Forgiveness. They're SO underrated! I'd release them both as singles. Love her attitude on them.

I hope Leona will sing them live someday.

I'd be happy if she records songs like that on her new album + songs like Body Party by Ciara. I just need that old RnB and Leona's vocals . She'd be successful with a RnB album.

lol how leona will have a hit everyone likes is going to be an interesting one

i love bring me down, and i also love heartbeat

Does anyone know leonas sales for happy in the USA and other countries?

Run is discounted yet again in UK and #69 on iTunes

I love I Know Who I Am, that is one of my favourite ballads from Leona.

wow itunes loves run!

Someone has made a video for Come Alive, called 'Cursed Lovers Story' and its pretty funny, I don't know if that was the intention, but I laughed.

here for it tbh

i don't think she needs a fellow contenstant, she just needs the right singles choices and promotion in order to get a hit

I don't mind if she teams up with someone for a single or not, but I still really want a duet with someone on the final, like they have done with other contestants in years past. My top would be Leona and Alexandra, but I think I'd be happy with quite a few other contestants.

I like the idea of them all performing the 3 minute mash up aswell on the final.

I would love it if she did a duet with Tony Bennett on her Christmas album. I thought their duet at the London Palladium was magical!

love that vid. People who hate on Leona should take note, someone like Tony wouldn't support a no-hoper

Yeah I'm actually wondering if there will be any duet on the xmas album? I mean, xmas album just screams duets imo :') I don't need no big artist, just someone who can sing like Leona is great.
Male: Josh Groban, David Phelps, ... (unknown singers I know )

btw, just read on DS that there are speculations this might be the last XF (10th season).
IF this is true, will this be positive for Leona or negative?
I can see it positive as Simon might pay more attention to Leona this way?
Negative, there won't be XF promo. But then again Simon could promote her more since he doesn't have to promote the winner of XF anymore.

Dave, love your idea of the mashup duet at the XF! I'd love to see that

I think if it is the last series then there's more chance we'll get Album 4 earlier next year!

I think the nostalgia and exposure of the last series would do Leona good!

If it's the last series, that means Leona's management will have to rely on more promo activities rather than XF performance as alpha and omega of promo

If they promote the Christmas album well and it sells decent then release the 4th album late Spring or early Summer 2014 it can do well without X Factor promo

Yeah I think they're baiscally releasing a xmas album so they can release a 4th original album mid next year if the xmas sells good.
At the end of the day, this is the best way to get her fans back. Let's be honest, if she'd release a 4th original album and not a xmas album I think it would do the same as GH if they'd pick the wrong lead single again.
They need to get the attention back and the xmas will do that.

They could also get her some good collaboration with a current artist on a single that would be distributed world wide.

Run still #69 on iTunes

Has anyone noticed how Leona's facebook is much more active and they really respect fan of the week and throwback tuesday or whatever. Did someone take over the management?

Exactly what I was thinking. It seems like they are interacting more with the fans Is it just me or are they posting more often now?

Yes it is great that she has a greater presence on Facebook and Twitter I love the Throwbacks etc

Something is happening. She's way more active than she ever was. I love this. Gives me hope for what's to come.. She's received quite a few followers lately too
