She better bring it because album sales are at an all time low. Hell, even vets are flopping hard.

Has it been confirmed yet when in November is she releasing? Nope, but I'm thinking it'll be mid or late November, seeing as Carrie's releasing on November 3rd and they're both linked to Arista. |

Already Gone/Halo part 3? I hope it's a great track. The Tedder produced tracks all leaked already. Only one sounded like previous Tedder tracks and thats the one least likely to make the cut. The other 3 are all single worthy and there's at least 2 (UK) #1's in there IMO, probably Euro zone as well. Not sure how the US will take to them because they are pure pop, not a hint of R&B in them at all. I have a hunch she's going to open with a banger. |

"Strangers" is amazing. As is "Perfect Stranger".

Ryan Tedder's production is amazing. Very talented producer.

I have a random question, I just recently bought 'Take a Bow' off iTunes, and remembered how much I loved it... did she ever perform it live?
I tried YouTube, but I couldn't find a performance of it.

^^ Or her label for not making up their minds quicker and releasing it as the 2nd single? ;)

^Or the fact that it completely wasn't single-worthy. It was too over-produced and the lyrics weren't of single-standard.

Imo, Strangers was the second-best demo that leaked, slightly behind Perfect Strangers. Brave was not, in my mind, worthy of even being on the album. If these are the only tracks Leona and Ryan have recorded together, then I am quite disappointed. There's nothing that rivals the quality of Bleeding Love, Run, or Better In Time. I would place I Got U a leaf-lengths above I Will Be in terms of quality. |

It was much more single worthy than both Better in Time and not to even mention that flop I WIll Be. Should've been a follow up to BL. It's odd that she never performed this song live not even once, I find that really odd. |

I remember when the songwriters of I WILL FLOP saying it was going to be a super hit and will be sung at weddings for decades to come! LOL
I still love the song and will probably get played at my wedding, but still. Not a mega-hit as everyone thought it was going to be.

TAB should've been a single, I love it. Leona's>>>>Rihanna's.
Too bad she never performed it.

Strangers is so much better than Perfect Strangers. The hook is attractive and addicting.

So there's two songs with the word "Strangers" in the title? That's so odd.

I hope she brings something great to the table with this 2nd album of hers. She can't be a one-trick pony.

Brave is a grower but not album worthy and I doubt they'll have two songs with 'Stranger' in the titles on the album. Strangers to me sound very typical Ryan Tedder, I hope it's a bonus track or a b-side though, I'd like to hear the finished version with just Leona's vocals. |

I think Strangers deserves to be on the album. It's catchy and not too disimilar from the Spirit era to lose fans.
I cannot wait to hear the lead single! It's going to be fantastic if it rivals Bleeding Love!!

Who can saaaaaaaaaaang! Now, if we compare a horse to a cow - the cow being Mimi - is there a challenge or free milk? I'm thinking the latter. |

Anywho...Look for "Strangers" to do some damage on the charts. It is miles ahead of anything else of hers.
