I am desperate to see what her new management team will be like and whether we will notice an improvement with the promo. I want them to make good use of her Vevo account and have her uploading exclusive performances from the Christmas album, plus some off any big tv shows she performs on. Other artists do it, she should too.

Good to see Leona being more active on social networks. I really wanna know who her management are.

If I'd tell, you wouldn't know anything about it

Re-visiting Glassheart today. Still sad to see the title track never got released. I've been looking over polls/threads about it on other forums to see all the positive feedback. Gosh darn it. I hope she'll have a huge smash next year for her 4th album.

I could literally hear Leona on that Clarity song. She suits songs like that so well.

I'm desperate too, it's been so long since she split with the old one and we still haven't heard anything. Hopefully they'll be really good and are gonna set up some big promo slots. I'm pretty sure this won't happen, but I'm wishing that if the album is promoted well in the US and does well that maybe they'll get her on the Christmas episode of SNL. I've always wanted her to perform on there and this could be her best chance since 2008.

I don't think management companies usually announce signings. We'll most likely find out through Twitter randomly like we usually do. She's probably on their website right now, it's just us trying to find it.

I'd love her to perform on SNL aswell, usually whoever's presenting can put in a good word. So maybe if Justin Timberlake was presenting.. that's how Robyn got a performance slot due to Katy Perry presenting, who adores Robyn.

That's what I'm expecting. We always find out things randomly about Leona . Honestly I don't really care if it's a big/well-known management or not, I just want them to step up promo.

I'd love for someone to put in a word for her too. I feel like a lot of celebrities and artists still know her, I just think people are blowing it out of proportion when they say she's not known anymore. Plus performances on SNL usually get uploaded to Vevo.

I hope her US label is still interested in her, I would be ecstatic if they actually promoted this Christmas record in the US. American's seem to like Christmas albums more than us in the UK, so they should promote it.

At the end of the day, she is a brilliant singer who will be singing classic Christmas songs and that is what people want from a Christmas album. It doesn't matter that she has been gone a few years, put her on some shows and people will remember her and will still appreciate her talent.

I met up with a friend today that bought Spirit and Echo when they came out and she asked me if I had Leona's last album and what was it like because she had been put off buying it because she heard it was dance music and she had read bad reviews, I told her it was actually her best album and was not dance music at all,strange that she thought that, she is a casual fan by the way.

I don't think that is strange though, for months when the press would write about Leona they mentioned her new album was going to be full on dance, then she released Collide and the album reviews focused heavily on the dubstep sound she used for a few songs, so most people will get the impression she was doing dance music now.

That is why I believe the Christmas album is actually quite a good idea, it is going to appeal to those who bought Spirit and Echo and could win their support back.

I just seen Naughty Boy released his album snippets and I wish Leona was on it, she and her team need to work on that. She should be doing more features, he produced Trouble and When It Hurts, so its a shame he never choose to work with her for a song.

I'd love her to work with Tinie Tempah in the future, he obviously wanted to work with her, he was the one who asked Leona to record Trouble with him, but she kept for herself, so hopefully he still has an interest in working with her.

It also lets her explore other genres and styles of music, ie the Ricky Hil collaboration, which was brilliant. Plus it opens her up to more of the public and helps keep her relevant in-between records.

For some reason my iPhone's iTunes Store app has changed to the US iTunes Store.. Does anyone know how to change it back?

Anyway looked up leona and it came up with echo and spirit.. Glassheart was definately not released over there.
But for some reason I will be is featured on an icarly album called 'songs from and inspired by the show'
Yeah because avril lavigne was inspired by icarly when she wrote I will be.. I really believe that

It was never released, but it was uploaded to Spotify.

I know a lot of you hate looking at the past but seriously there have been so many mistakes made in the past.. Undeniable mistakes, not just a matter of opinion.

I think trouble could have shifted a few more copies if they would have made it a but more catchy and if tinie was featured than the track would have definately shifted more than it did as he has a genuine following in the UK that childish lacks and lacked, plus I think tinie would have got the song a bit more radio play and generated excitement for the song, plus he would have featured in the video unlike childish and performed on X factor probably.
I mean what he did with hanging on and ellie goulding is phenomenal

I actually think he could have had that wrap planned out for trouble; but adapted it to fit in with hanging on.

Oh well


LEONA IS PHENOMINAL

You guys get me so passionate haha

I actually think looking at US iTunes that leona could become massive in the us again

I mean all it takes is a smash euphoric, r'n'b influenced evocative track... SNL, a radio tour, some other tv performances on Ellen and us X factor ( preferably the voice as its bigger but Simon won't allow it), to go on your with someone like Demi lovato, an iTunes USA banner.. Not too much to ask is it, ok maybe but it could happen

And if people like Demi, One direction, ariana grande etc. who have a huge twitter following all started hyping her up than magical things will occur ;/)

Why I have a feeling that Leona would possibly releasing Glassheart as a single in the US?

I don't think so, I think it is too late now. She seems to have moved on from this album now.

I really hope she goes back to the US at some point! I know America is not the be all and end all, she can focus else where...just she has so much potential there!

What harm would it be to release GH to US iTunes though? Rack in some extra $$ and end it there.
