The album is going to be full of ballads I think, so it would be nice for at least one of them to showcase her classical voice and I really think now would be the perfect time for Leona to do it. She has spoken in the past about wanting to record a classical album one day, this is a good opportunity to at least do it on one song. She'll still have some uptempos.
Can you imagine the live performances? Everyone would be slayed, most people don't realise she can sing classically, so it would be a great surprise.

I can't wait to find out. I really wish Leona would give us a premier date for the single, I don't see any harm in her doing that, it helps build excitement in the fan base. It's so annoying, we only tend to find out the day before. I'm pretty sure with Collide and Trouble it was literally a day or two before we found out, and I don't think we found out from official sources either.
It looks like we are going to get some performances of this in the UK soon, Leona said she had some TV performances coming up at the end of October and Michael Bolton said this.

How exciting! I can totally see this album outselling glassheart with some good promo slots that really showcase her vocals. She could easily win back the AC audience just in time for christmas.
That performance is perfection, but I've never liked the song tbh. Lovebird should've been the first single in May, followed by Glassheart as a summer single..now THAT would've sold the album!

She's done that before? But the tracklist for Glassheart was released beforehand.

Lovebird wouldn't have sold anything tbh. I don't think it's that good of a song, it seems like a rip off of Bleeding Love. Glassheart would have been it, but I think Trouble was actually one of the best songs they could have released, people were just not here for it.

I'm only kidding, Leona fans always joke about how she rarely tells the fans anything in advance. She's getting better though.

I disagree tbh, Lovebird was always my instant favourite from the album ever since it leaked in 2011, her vocals on it are amazing and the melody is catchy and radio friendly. The only reason it sold so poorly last year was because it was promoted so badly (I didn't even know it was released!) and the sound was totally wrong for the Christmas market. Trouble would work best as an album track, its really not single material at all.

I think Lovebird could have been a hit, but because Leona's career was on shaky ground already and because it then followed an under-performing single meant most stations weren't even going to give it a chance. It didn't actually even get a proper release, it was given an impact day and I don't think they bothered putting up a Single EP on Itunes either. Plus Leona originally announced Fireflies as the second single, with the song being sent to radio and then the label changed it, and we don't think Leona was happy about that because she never even tweeted about it or anything.
I remember when it leaked all the forums and blogs were excited by it and did think it was single worthy, if it was the original lead or followed a hit radio would have played it and I think it would have done well.

Say what y'all want but some of yall really dont promote Leona like I've been doing, I see my pal Heartbeats, DMDR, CROATIA and Pbax and a few others but what happened with the other bunnies. We can make Leona really big on ATRL if anything and I'm glad to see a few bunnies supporting the cause. BTW I want to make reaction gifs with Leona, if you guys want avis, and have gif reactions be sure to send me them.

Glassheart just kind of disappeared, HaHa doesn't post much anymore either and Soeplepel might still be banned/banned again. The risk is that atrl will get annoyed from overexposure, but for now you've done a great job, almost no one drags her anymore, a few months ago one couldn't even mention Leona without getting a horse pic as reply.

Come Alive SLLLAAAAAAYS! I love both the acoustic and original. She opened the Glassheart Tour by starting with the acoustic version for the first verse and chorus and then erupted into the original version for the second chorus, its was so perfect!

Its not really a stretch for a Mariah stan to get into Leona, I just wish more of them would give her a chance though

You know why that is, because you need to make posts about her being a sex god, but not too much. Some every month. They will be like... "no she's not a sex god, but she is gorgeous" I don't want her to be overexposed but I don't want her to just disappear, things in this base are moving gradually but still moving and I'm actually happy to be apart of the revival, now all she needs to do is top the charts in the UK and then we have most of ATRL Bandwagons in the bag.

One of the more active fans, Soeplepel has been banned for a month, he'll be back in 6 days time. He is a great fan for spreading Leona news and making threads etc.
Edit: Soon as the single premiers, we'll get a rush of fans.

He was hating on her before I became his mentor in a game and changed his mind. Now he loves trouble, I'm glad that SOME Mariah fans are coming around.

Aww I see, at least some are seeing the light though.
You should really join the Leona appreciation thread on Digital Spy btw, most people on there lurk on ATRL and love how much you promo our girl . Its probably the most active Leona forum right too since her official one shut down without warning.
