Not really wasted, it's good to keep Leona stable at night/into the morning. They'll play it more often next week/during peak times more often with it on the A-list now.

You're lovely. I'm assuming it'll air on 27th June. Envoirment said she was being filmed on the second show recorded so presumably they'd record the shows in order of broadcast.”

Thanks , so are you and thanks for the info

Apparently night time radio listeners are only 10% of the daytime! But I won't turn my nose up at any radio play. Hopefully Free Radio will play it in the day, too.

Had a fabulous night last night with Alipop. So nice to meet fellow Leona fans from LLAT - everyone I have met has been so sweet. Maybe it is a prerequisite for being a bunny

Great to see Leona strutting around the stage at Hackney. John the host was super sweet about her coming home. And she was ace. Some of you might say she did not go for the money notes, but she was really in the performance, sounded very strong and confident, and its was just over too quickly. I wanted her to do it again (the previous act had to do it twice as their drummer wasn't there the first time).

And in her act lots of boys with drums came on at the end (they'll be there no doubt at GAY) and it was a drum fest!

Really enjoyed the whole show. Made me realise how much artifice is involved in producing events for television!

Only quibble was the bunch of people in the row in front of us coming back late after admission from the bar and standing up just when she was doing her stuff. Luckily we could see around them but really!!

So looking forward to all that comes next. I don't think I am going to GAY (too busy last time - I am not so good with crowds any more) but can't wait for the videos.

Sounds like a great performance. Shame about the people in the row in front of you. Is anyone on here going to G-A-Y?

Thank you. Nice to see you posting in here.

The John Bishop performance sounds great, can't wait to see it on tv. For me FUMF is just brilliant when it is performed live, it really is a cracker, and I hope for some US promo. I am also streaming on Spotify. Alipop, I would love to gift someone but can't get itunes, that is why I bought from Amazon.

I eagerly await some comments about this Saturday. Are you going Envoirment?

I hope she does some Lorraines/Sunday Brunches/Weekends to keep the promo going until John Bishop!

There shouldn't be any hesitation to reduce the price to 69p or 79p next week. They won't be earning any money that's for sure, so why not give it a chance to maybe increase in position by reducing its price.

Or even 59p, I see Adam Lambert's single is 59p.

FUMF #29 now, I guess that BBCR2 play helped

Btw, those spotify updates are probably worldwide because Leona's not in UK top100 on Spotify.

You're too kind It has been the same for me!

I definitely agree it was over too quickly! It was a shame about the people faffing around in front of us - it just had to be then, didn't it?!

I'm glad her release was moved away from Rita Ora's, because that meant she was in a different show to her. Rita performed really well, which could have detracted from Leona. But Leona's going to be shown in a show with some band which were no competition (in my opinion ) so that's all good...

I'd have liked to see her perform at GAY but it's not really my scene and I have work the next day...but definitely looking forward to the videos!

Glad you all had a great time
I was there in the stalls. Leona looked fantastic last night. She didn't dance around quite as much as she did at the Palladium but she performed very well and gave a shout out to the audience ("hello Hackney, how are you all feeling tonight?" or something like that which received a big cheer).

She missed out some of the long Fiyahhhh! belts and changed them to two or three low "fire, fire" notes which I was disappointed by - but maybe that was just because I was singing along and wasn't expecting it to be different from the single version. There was one point where she kept her head turned away from the audience with her long hair falling down hiding her face and it seemed at that part that maybe she was a bit nervous or shy at looking out at the audience - I thought that was a small detraction of her performance a little as she was doing brilliantly (I'm probably being overcritical and nobody else noticed it). Everyone gave her a huge cheer when the song finished and the performance certainly livened everyone up It was an amazing performance overall and I loved when the drummers came out to the front of the stage

I was hoping she would have to do the song a second time for some technical reason (as occurred with several other acts) but it just proves how professional Leona and her band are that they did it perfectly in one take.

p.s. The Cortinas also performed but it was pretty bad and the vocal was out to me (seemed like he was singing in the wrong key or something).
