I love the cover. I love how this new era really is a new era. We're finally seeing the real Leona and getting so much that we never got beforehand. Not keen on the pyjama's but she looks great. She always gives good face. I heard her head's not bad either sorreh.

Let's hope the single gets a wikipedia page now. Also we can confirm it's actually called 'Fire Under My Feet' yeah?

There is a Wikipedia page - but I'm not sure what language it is in!

Can someone please set up a Japanese Wikipedia page then. There is still a high demand for her in Japan, I think most people just don't know she is still making music.

This can't be getting an exclusive radio play, surely they would have told us who to tune into by now if it was, right?

I think it's Heat after all, it would have been pointless to announce it Friday on their radio then I think.. If another station had the premiere, it would have only caused confusion

It would have been way more effective, if this guy had sung an opera song. Run is a pop song. I love pure opera the most. Beside that I like mixtures of pop/opera (like all Pavarotti and Friends) and I love choirs/groups who perform pop songs (like Il divo, it adds a lot of variety if opera singers with different textures to their voices perform pop songs). But I am not a fan of solo opera singers performing pop songs.
It was me. And I agree with poker face. He just didn't connect with the song like Leona does.

I've been out and just catching up. I love the single coveR. Probably my favourite. Like a real and gutsy version of Run.

Also the new snippet. She looks so strong.

I got rid of the text on the Artwork for anyone who's interested, I'm now using this as my desktop wallpaper. Or if you'd like to create your own artwork:

I'm still holding out hope that something will be confirmed in the next few hours.

Not that I'm moaning but for a comeback as big as this, they should be launching the track as strongly as they can i.e. premiering it on a major station, it gets a real buzz going. Not a digital one. Probably the first misstep if I'm honest but oh well.

I'm pretty sure Ella Henderson's Ghost was similar though, the video went up at Midnight and there was no world exclusive premiere. So maybe they're doing something similar?

I really hope not, if she has a Radio 2 interview tomorrow morning then she should premier on Ken Bruce's show instead.

I still think that tomorrow morning at 8 or 9 they might just upload the video, there won't be a radio premier.

I think it will be a vevo premier, Then Leona visits all different radio stations over the next few days for them to all play it, I am sure Ella Henderson did the same with Ghost premier the video then done radio tour like space said above.

I would make sense since Leona hasn't said nothing about first radio play and she just keeps showing the music video with countdown, Dont know just my opinion.

I don't think there is a radio premier as such, tomorrow is just when Radio can play it. Of course someone will be the first but it's not like her previous premiers where it's been a big thing. I think as others have said, it's proper premier will probably be the video/audio on youtube/vevo.
