This is my favorite song from the album, so I really hope it does well. Very catchy. (Looking forward to remixes too!)
Sidebar: btw, this was written by Max Martin right? Pretty sure he also wrote a song called "I Got You" for Nick Carter's flop solo album, but it was a great track as well.

The label is sending it out now just to get a little buzz before the Christmas freeze and hoping that some stations may jump on it before then. January is ultimately when this is going to have the most impact. |

Very very good choice, not too slow and once I listened to her streaming album this was the song I found myself going back and listening to several times. Hope this is a hit for her, love it and its catchy too. Maybe they can take a gamble with OMH next.

Looks like an ad in mediabase is what you need to get adds these days.. I think she'll have nice adds in Top 40 too today. |

I was lucky enough to be at the Radio 2 gig and the sound in there was incredible - something weird was going on with the mix used for the live broadcast because the vocal was clearly audible in the theatre but seemed to be diminished in the broadcast - I'm not technical enough to know why though.
IGY one of my faves of the Radio 2 gig, awesome track and loved the more plinky/plonky/glittery intro.

I'm sick of her and her boring music but this song is actually pretty nice.

I love this too. It won't be a huge success but will at least find success similar to 'Better In Time'.

Yeah, it was either #3 or #4, I can't remember which. I actually think it may have gotten to #3 for a few days but didn't officially peak there (something like that). Either way that's pretty darn solid and if this were to get somewhere around there, I'd be a start to digging herself out of the hole she's in right now.

Yeah, I never get why people say "Better in Time" was a flop when it hit #3 on Mediabase and gained over 3 billion AI in the U.S. There's only been four songs that hit #1 this year to do that. (Just Dance, Poker Face, Love Story, Boom Boom Pow, and I Gotta Feeling) Not very many songs that don't peak at #1 get over 3 billion AI.

I'm sorry this may be my favorite Leona song EVER, get's better with each listen. I can't understand a word of the chorus though, what the f**k is this b***h saying? I love it though! LMAO I know right, the chorus is so catchy and beautiful and when its done, I was like what the heck did she just say lol. But after a couple tries and just listening to the words I got it. This song is so beautiful, pls radio don't ignore this. I also love Can't Breathe, this one will stand more of a chance on Urban AC tbh. But I'm starting to agree with others, she needs to try a couple of r&b songs on her next album, if its a hit its also a new niche for her along with pop/AC. She has a strong voice, with the right song she can crossover on urban and also sell there. |

I love this song but I can't understand WTF she says in the chorus. When I try singing along I just hum the tune because she has this weird thing where in a lot of her songs she kind of just makes noises (or at least that's what it sounds like) that resemble words (well not really - animal calls, but beautiful ones) but aren't.

Go ahead and say goodbye
I'll be all right
Go ahead and make me cry
I'll be all right
And when you need a place
To run to
For better or worse
I got you
I had to look it up as well. B!tch needs to enunciate.

I had to look it up as well. B!tch needs to enunciate. I agree with that for the most part. Having said that, I think the issue in this specific song is due more to the production of the song's chorus and that's what hinders the listener from knowing/figuring out the words initially. Once you know what she's saying it's actually pretty clear, IMO. |

This is one of the better tracks on the new album. Still, I think something is missing that will keep this from being as big as BIT and certainly BL. Her best tracks this era seems to be less immediate than her previous ones to me.

I don't think anyone should be expecting this to do much before January, and that's the way the record label feels too. They just put it out now to get maybe a few stations on it early and give it a little momentum in January.
