I love this song, I hope it goes to # 1! :) Better in Time" was more of an up tempo ballad so I believe she will be fine with this single choice. Have a little faith people!!! ;)

I'll probably be in the minority here, but I actually agree with this as the 3rd single choice over "Forgive Me." This shouldn't have any problem going at least top 10 CHR.

NO-NO! The minute I heard this song, it reminded me of Avril's "When You're Gone". Leona has beautifl runs here and there reaching nice high notes... but I don't buy her interpretation. There are parts when there is no connection. Probably this is so Avril's song that doesn't match with Leona's voice/style? And I do think she needed something different as third single if not second. At least to vary, Forgive Me should have been released. Maybe it would have been less successful than BIT, but I would have certainly prefer something upbeat from Leona instead of anooooother ballad. Even Mariah's debut opted for Someday as 3rd single...

I alright with it actually a lot more than having it 4th. To get this out of the way is great. I'm sure it be a hit. I think this was the most loved non radio single. I think radio will love to play it for the winter time and when spring comes FM will be perfect and then maybe WIT last as this is kinda summery and would do well on radio and then leave at that and wait for second album 1st single.

this is ok, but she might not have the rhythmic support this time. if the best you never had was on the us cd, she should've released it. it's so relatable to the chicks out there haha

another ballad? I hope it flops. Leona is the dullest pop star out atm. I am afraid that's what the general public is gonna think after this. 3 ballads makes it seem like she is kinda dull...

I like this song -- but it's such an Avril Lavigne reject (literally)... and it's a carbon copy of "When You're Gone".

They try so hard with her is not even funny. They are trying to make her into this epic singer when I'm sorry she is not...first, the whole firework thing in American Idol and now this?

I guess if your a Mariah fan it wouldn't be funny, especially as she appeared the week after Mariah on both Idol and X factor. Epic is what she does, you'll get it eventually

Well, after Mariah lipping I Stay In Love and croaking her way through Hero, I don't blame anyone for being a little resentful.

I'm a huge Leona fan but that performance was far from epic.. great performance as usual, but not epic.
