Perhaps Leona will be releasing a Christmas EP as well?! I would die if she released a Christmas EP and a studio album in the same year!

Did she confirm it's a true album, not a Christmas album?

Did she confirm it's a true album, not a Christmas album? It's definitely a studio album. It wouldn't take her 6 months or so to record a Christmas album, plus her contract with her label requires 5 studio albums, so I doubt a Christmas album will be on the cards anytime soon. Although I'm sure she will release a Christmas EP at some point, possibly even this year! :)

What kind of genre will this album be? The dance pop like Collide or just pop like Bleeding Love?
Either way, i can't wait for this. I love Leona. But tbh, i wish she will avoid the dance pop. lol. I love it when she sings power ballad.
And i'm stil bitter that Lovebird didn't get promotion. that song had so much potential.

I suspect they will go for a more R&B tinged album, like Spirit. But more mainstream/modern. I'm rather excited, as I'm pretty sure a bunch of material from her Glassheart sessions that wasn't used will get used! And she normally has great unreleased material, so it would be great to hear some of it we haven't heard!

I predict 20,000 sales in the UK and another 5000 worldwide for this album.

Ugh! Obviously, I'll buy it and I'm sure it's gonna be awesome (there's nothing better than Christmas album sungs by real vocalists), but once Christmas is over I won't be listening to it.

Ye, that's one of my issues with Christmas albums. Which is why I would prefer a Christmas EP or something. There is going to be original Christmas songs on the album too.

Leona's "Footprints In The Sand" was used by Britain's Got Talent act Attraction for their performance and it was stunning!

Leona had a session with Lance Jones and poetnamelife: http://instagram.com/p/a99ZIuojMe # Poet has worked with BEP before. They both tend to produce uptempo music. I'm rather confused as to whether we're getting a Christmas album or a studio album now. xD

The album is going to have a motown feel with a lot of original material! Also, it looks like she'll begin some recording for her next studio album: LinkI'm rather excited about a motown feel! And original material! Aah!!! Also, the album is set to be released sometime in November. :)

Leona's demo of "Burn" has leaked in full.
Much prefer it to Ellie's version and it could have been a smash if finalised and released imo.

I hope for her Christmas album she won't be ill again like she was last year. So far things seem to be quiet, but we'll start getting more news nearer the end of August I would think.
Also, for those who haven't seen it, Leona's spectacular performance of "Somewhere" at the Musicares Barbra Streisand tribute concert a couple years ago.
Amazing!

Leona is back in the studio! http://instagram.com/p/c9bviku25G # One of the songs on the lyric sheet is Wizzard's "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everday" It's a christmas classic here in the UK. Would love to hear her version of it!

Leona's still the biggest selling X-factor act in the UK with 4.4 million singles and 3.9 million albums sold! LinkHopefully Leona will extend her lead with the release of the album!
