When I saw you all going crazy, I though the album leaked for a second

You Knew Me When is better than I thought! It's so unique and not just a typical, simple ballad! It's got edge! wow!!

I don't think they're comparable to Leona though. Melanie Matinez was on The Voice - so had somewhat of a platform/small fanbase from there, plus she has been building up hype to her album release for years including a tour in 2013-2014 and an EP release last year.

Hasley has been building up her fanbase for a few years as well, with youtube videos/tumblr and she released an EP last year. Not to mention she's been touring and has supported Imagine Dragons this year on their tour.

Both have built decent-sized fanbases in the US, something Leona hasn't done (Leona hasn't toured in the US nor is she a new artist with a debut album).

Especially with streaming included in the billboard 200, I don't think she'll go top 20 unless either her album gets critical acclaim (building a bit of buzz) or her TV performances go down really well and "Thunder" rises quite a bit on HAC/AC.

I made it bold - Czech Republic (if this was for me)

"oooohoooooooooh" on the Thunder acoustic I really like Thunder, don't understand how people can't like it The chorus is so sing along worthy

He probably meant the snippets It's worldwide

I Got You IN HQ! MY GOD

It's just perfection!!!!

Loving YKMW! It needs a big performance!

thank you

The Best and the Worst is giving me Sam Smith - I'm Not The Only One vibes

omg this

I still think Another Love Song is the most current sounding. It should be a single!

"I Got You" HQ > Life.

Can't wait for the Ellen performance, I'm sure it'll be amazing! Also jealous of everyone hearing the snippets, I don't have access right now but I'm glad everything seems to sound amazing!

Definitely up there as one of my favourite ever Leona songs.


Can we all discuss how unique/amazing/LEONA that YKMW sounds?!?!?!

"You Knew Me When" sounds great, but I can see why people wouldn't want it as a single. Defintely has a musical theatre element to it. Really like the sound of the song and think a live performance of it would be amazing!

this so unreal everything sounds amazing Q_Q

It sounds like an album seller more than a hit single, but I definitely think it needs to be a single!

Need a performance of it at the GRAMMY's or something please

OMG OMG OMG!!! The album sounds so good I wanna cry !! Oh happiness of course!

Major feels from I Am Acoustic! So emotional, got goosebumps.

RIGHHTTTT ?!
I said that when we first heard the snippets i'm glad someone hears the similiarity

Tbh, even Essence of Me slays in HQ. Those drums and her voice >>>

The iTunes snippet of You Knew Me When is amazing

I am loving "Thank You" though, gave me chills when the harmonies and beats came in!

Ye, I'm really liking the song now we have HQ of it.
