FMQB -
6/17 Mainstream
Leona Lewis "Better In Time" (RCA MG)

Here it is, now its official

No. Lies.

FLAWP.

Ohh so it goes for adds 17th June hmmm
I don't know what to say about the add date, do you think it may be too soon considering 'Bleeding Love' is still going strong on sales and radio?

& 'Better In Time' being the second single, I weren't too happy with but alot of people in the USA seem to like it and it's already charted on the hot 100 so that's a good sign, just hope radio pick it up and she does some decent promo.

Another thing tho, how can you say it is a 'FLAWP' Tibbits, when it hasn't even been released yet, especially when it's already charted just on downloads?

^I actually think its a decent timing, about a month from now, as her bullet is about to stop dropping on mainstream. and I also hope that radio picks it up too

Coolness. Is she going to shoot another video for it?

^No clue yet, I'm not sure if her label would spend the money on another one, all I know is the adds date as I just happened to be browsing FMBQ and came across it

Wrong shoice for summer. if she wanted to release on the US, they should've done it on the holiday season
Forgive Me might me the 3rd then

ok thanks music135!!

ehhh not a good single choice, song isnt that good :-/

I LOVE THIS SONG!

I am agree. 'Better In Time' is a good song but its a bad choice for the sumer! 'Forgive Me' would be a perfect choice!

At the beginning 'Better In Time' is boring but when you listened more times, it's a great song.

I love Better In Time.Good choice for a second single.

I love Better in Time
the video is so edgy and high fashion
love when she handling the horse....so mysterious there

Good for Leona..Anyone who even attempts to call this a flop will start sounding like a broken record..get a clue..i am not a fan but even i know she's gonna be killing on the charts for a while..

I wish they'd pick a different single, I think it will be a hit on AC but on pop EHH

I want Forgive Me to jam up my summer

"Take A Bow" please.

^+1

Better In Time<333

Forgive Me

Don't you think it has an Alicia Keys "No One" vibe to it? That did well on Pop.

Anyway Better In Time - this is the video for those who haven't seen it:

They released this version of BIT to radio in the UK - it differs from the album version. There's more piano and string effects, a heavier chord in the verses, the drums first come in at 47 secs in the remix not 22 secs as in the album version. Conversely the backbeat comes in 6 seconds earlier second time around in the remix (at 1:40) than on the album. Probably other subtle differences as well.

Here's the album version for comparison:

And here's the Snowflake remix which was played by a couple of the more rhythmic leaning London radio stations:
