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 ![]() The tour is so close, can't wait. Haven't received my tickets yet from Birmingham. |

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. ☺ |

Thought I'd read 10 pages on how good she sounded at the rehearsals when I returned, but guess we'll have to do with them 3 posts then

If you got your tickets from ticketmaster they say when you buy them that the tickets will arrive up to a few days before the tour date. Hopefully we'll get our tickets in February before the tour starts.

Has anyone heard of Dua Lipa? Listen to the whole thing, I hear some Leona influence. |

just a thought ![]() ![]() If we set expectations for Leona to get a Brit/Grammy nomination, collaborate with Craig David or soundtrack massive feature films, we're gonna find ourselves let down. I think she can rebuild moderate success by not going for a big pop comeback, but I don't see it as realistic to expect her to achieve 2008-9 level success. She's in her 30s now as well which makes it even more difficult because people (unfortunately) will judge her as not being at her peak. The good news is, she's still releasing. I Am had some great tracks. While she's not always performing at the same capacity that she once did, she's still throwing out some great performances and she has a career that pans nearly a decade. It could be a lot worse for her and, in that sense, we're lucky. Every other XF winner (barring Little Mix) have struggled a great deal more than her. |

You sang one song today. How many songs do you do in the entire show? I think the second one is Run
I’m going to be doing two songs in the entire show, then I’ll be making an appearance throughout, so we’re working on that now. I’m in the show throughout, but not singing all the time. I’m part of the dream-like sequence. |

Looks like YKMW is confirmed for the setlist then! She sounds and looks great!!
Also, maybe she'll cover "Hotel California" for the tour? I think that would be a great song for the setlist - just a chilled moment to let her voice rest before the next big song.
