I miss the high note she used to do after the second big belt in Bleeding Love
Hoping that we will hear some crazy notes on the tour

She does sound amazing, hoping she'll be doing more than just Bleeding Love though.

Really love the way she sings 'I'm in love with you' during that snippet.

Edit: Just realised it says she is headlining, so presumably she'll be doing more than Bleeding Love.
I agree. It really sounds warm and passionate . This is the kind of improvement I have noticed in her singing as she matures.

Yes the belts are great but the way she sings "I don't care what they say... I'm in love with you"... Giving me chills, feels, life. You name it.

I knew her voice wasn't "gone" and that video proves her vocals aren't anywhere near "bad", I cannot wait for the tour, I'm ready to be slayed!

I don't really comment too much on leona's supposedly weakening vocals but i honestly think it's overly exaggerated. People claim she is struggling here or this and that but i just think Leona like's to play with her voice and experiment and it's just that simple. I've seen far too many recent performances such as the most recent Cirque rehearsal and even her flawless performance of run on the X-factor this year where it looked like she was playfully reaching those high notes despite the drowning cat sounds coming from Ben to really give much credence to it. I just can't wait till Leona shocks peeps at her tour. Leona gives the performances she wants to, i'm ok with that personally.

Maybe now we can just all recognise that if a performance doesn't sound as strong as another to your ears it doesn't mean she has lost her voice, her voice is ruined, blah blah. I've been avoiding the LLAT as its too depressing to hear the same old drama which is hard to ignore as it takes up so much space (whether or not the more positive of us react to it) rather than just enjoy how much Leona keeps giving us. She's maturing so much as an artist and love the more laid back performances and all the different versions of her own songs.

Hopefully we can enjoy the tour together

I just heard FUMF on the radio, it sounds SO good! I still can't get over it not being a hit. My sister also told me they danced to it at her zumba class, so clearly some people like it. Shame they didn't push it in the US, it could have been a decent WW hit.

I'm not trying to be smart or cause an argument but if you've been avoiding this thread because the whole vocals drama, why would you bring it up again.

Again I'm really not trying to be argumentative or cause drama. I hate when the thread is like that. I'm only saying this because I don't want this whole discussion to start again. Like I've said before, the people who want this thread to be completely positive are the ones who drag this discussion out. Please don't get offended, I'm not trying to attack you or anything. I just think the thread has been really positive since we got the announcement and I just want it to stay like this. ☺
