How can you make a proper judgement without listening to it all then? It's 4 minutes out of your busy life. If you're gonna come here and pass judgement, at least listen to it all.

Sounds like a cross between Whitney & Rhianna.

I'm not one for ballads, but I really like this.

Like we said some people have decided they don't like the song even before they have heared it.

Yes I think its bland and as you say I have a busy life so therefore after 3 minutes I had heard enough to know I did not like the song. I am entitled to say what I think after all the thread asked if anyone had listened to the song. And as she has been hyped up ever since the XFactor I would have thought with all the great producers that are helping her at the start of her seemingly wonderful career I would have expected a song more powerful than this. After all it has taken nearly 9 months for us to actually here something new from Leona.

Lets face it, you were never gonna like her music regardless. And I think it's absolutely ridiculous for you to come here and pass judgement on something you didn't even listen to all the way through.

There have been many people on today who aren't fans of Leona who have said that the song is good , and those who have never liked Leona , in fact...have vehemently disliked her are the ones criticisng the song the most. How surprising.

Shows even more , that it is a small minority of people who actually dislike her regardless of what she does.

You should be grateful for those who dislike her. They make up the numbers of the few who remember her at all.

What is ridiculous is your assuption that I need to listen to the record all the way through. If a song cant catch you in the first minute or so you are going too turn it off. And if I had enjoyed the song I would have come here and said that it was good. And as for you calling me ridiculous that is like the pot calling the kettle black after all the slating that you have done to other contestants that were on the show.

IMO the song is bland and that is all that counts to me - could`nt care less what you think as you constantly put anybody down that says anything against Leona. Open your mind and realise that people can dislike a song and are entitled to do so. It may be that she does another song and I love it but not at the moment.

Will her song be played after all the chart has been revealed then? Because it's currently at No. 26 and with an hour and a half left.

When have I put anyone down? I'm perfectly entitled to challenge and disagree with someones opinion if I want to, that's not putting anyone down. You're perfectly entitled to state yours too, but in my opinion you can't possibly make an informed judgement without listening to it all and it just further shows your bias really.

Very true, if you don't like the beginning, you give it time to improve. If it doesn't you switch off. If you have to wait until the end of a song to find out if you like it, then you don't.

Well if you're gonna do that, you should come back and say "The first two minutes of the song are bland" as that's all you have heard. As opposed to saying "the song is bland" when you haven't heard the song in its entirety.

Well I have just listened to it all the way through and my opinion is still the same.

So therefore we will just have to agree to differ because I thought it sounded even more bland listening to it once more.

Hopefully one day i will be able to say hey thats really good but not yet.

Well thanks for actually listening to it all. Fair enough if you don't like it. It was inevitable that not everyone would, just like any other song.

Well most people on here are pretty constructive in their criticism, but there are the old "We'll see if she's here in a year" brigade who'll keep saying that every year

Oh I would`nt say that I think she will get number 1 and all the best to her if she does. I dont dislike Leona as a person - she seems to be lovely - I just dont like the song and must admit her style of singing. But its a good job everybody doe`snt all like the same things or it would be a pretty boring world.

It has a great 90's diva vibe to it. And I'm a 90's girl. Love this track.

Some Leona fans like to dish out criticism but don't like to hear it directed at themselves

I take it that's directed at me. Once again, that's a false assumption of me. People seem to think because I disagree with the negative opinions of Leona and I'm vocal about it, I have a problem with it. I don't at all actually as I know everyones entitled to their own opinion and that's fair enough.

It's amazing. Such emotion on some parts, really catchy, and you can sing along. It's not just one of those songs you skip on an album, you want to listen to it over and over again. Everything I hoped for!

I don't even remember making that comment lol. Maybe it hit a nerve as someone obviously never forgot it.

I still don't see how it's relevant. I've never claimed I don't critise people, or that people shouldn't critise Leona. So really what they are implying is false.
