Up to #8 now .... definitely no Leona's Bleeding Love then which had already hit the top spot by the same time last year, before spending 35 days in pole position.

Oh and did I mention that her album version also peaked at #4? She held the #1 and #4 positions with the same song at the same time

Leon might not be Leonabig... but Shayne Ward hasn't topped the singles charts since his win on XF2, Leona is the only X-Factor winner to retop the charts since her win.

I suspect Leon's physical sales will be quite alot... wasn't his WYB physicals quite high?

What is your problem Spiidey, you want to make this a competition ..if Leon is so poor in your eyes - I saw your post on Buzz Jack before you edited it, why do you bother with all this..are you not secure in Leonas status/ position?

It is now 17 on Itunes. If at first you look on the homepage it says 8 but then if you click full chart it is actually 17 atm.

Its a valid comparison, and the fact of whether the two can be compared or not has been done to death now.

Also, what post on Buzzjack are you on about? And what part of it did I edit?


He's @ #8. The front page is up-to-date, the full chart lags behind almost all the time.

#8 on iTunes is amazing.

Isn't it, Eth? I'm delighted.

Your obsession with comparing Leon to Leona is rather bizarre, if you are to be of any use at all just give us the facts, Leona in one thread and Leon in another thank you.

PS I also read your nasty comment on Buzzjack, mind you for being really nasty you are in good company there, makes DS look like a love in

I'm not the biggest Leon fan. But the song is pretty good. I hope it does do well. Top #10 would be amazing. I may actually buy it.

You know....comparing his success with DCTL to McFlys typical chart run, then you made a none too pleasant remark. I don't go round cutting and pasting stuff to save and quote later.

Good stuff, Liz.

Correct, I did and still do think his chart run will be similar to McFly's. And I called him useless. Oh dear, nasty me.

And just for the record, I did not edit it. I don't have a clue what you're on about in that regard.

Good luck to him!

That is really encouraging news. The single hasn't been out for a full day yet. With the physical out tomorrow, I think that things are looking good for Leon to be at number one in the singles chart next Sunday

That would be great.

Nah.... Geraldine/Peter Kay will beat him!

Just bought this track on itunes he's got a gorgeous tone to his voice.I'm playing it thru the headphones and it's real nice


He really seemed to be suffering from a dry throat/mouth last night-the pressure must have been immense.Nevertheless I enjoyed his performance.

Is it just me....or is this one of the most refreshing and balanced posts I've seen in ages?

Well said, OHW.

Lovely post, oldhippywoman. Thank you

Yes, it's distinctive, you'd would know it was him...I'm liking the snip of a few tracks from the album...loving Stargazing at the moment.

Stargazing is still my favourite song from the clips I've heard. I think it would make a great choice for a single

Leon now at 5 in iTunes 'pop'. Still at 8 generally.

Yes I agree CC I love Stargazing although I do think Creative would make an excellent second single as it shows a totally different style and is more uptempo, I have also noticed it has gotten alot of good feedback from non fans.

No. 7 now

I hope he doesn't get to number one, but only 'cos I want Pink to stay there
