I love "Love Letters" and "Brave" so far. I bought the album today and her voice is gorgeous as always.
I see alot of potential in this album, so maybe it is a "grower" where it doesn't have the BIG smash hit of "Bleediing Love", but it has tons of quality great songs that will do well on radio.

I'm thrilled with 60-65K. "Happy" wasn't even a hit on pop radio. The only way anyone has really heard it is from her promotion this week. Good thing she's been out there.
To answer someone's previous question: I think this next single will be make it or break it for Leona and this era.
After one listen through this amazing album, I'm all for the popular "Outta My Head". "I Got You" could also be a hit I think. I just can't wait to see what they pick next and how successful this album (hopefully) becomes.

I just can't wait to see what they pick next and how successful this album (hopefully) becomes. I'm happy with 60-65k too, I didnt think she could even do that much! She confirmed last night in a webchat that I Got You or Outta My Head will be the next singles I'm now leaning more to I Got You because its an album seller. She'll also be performing Outta My Head on Jimmy Kimmel. I love "Love Letters" and "Brave" so far. I bought the album today and her voice is gorgeous as always. I see alot of potential in this album, so maybe it is a "grower" where it doesn't have the BIG smash hit of "Bleediing Love", but it has tons of quality great songs that will do well on radio. Glad you liked and bought it Tsharky :)

She looks good. She sounds good. She just needs some damn hits and the sales would follow. Oh well. Infamous sophomore slump bout ready to hit full force. :(

Wordwide it still outsell Jordin Sparks in one week Outsold. And that's not hard is it? Why are you always in here making your little digs at Leona?? If you don't like her, and can't say anything positive, go to a thread about an artist you actually appreciate.

Leona has TWO record labels (Syco/Sony Music UK and J Records). That information from Billboard could be for Leona's US record label. You have to keep in mind that Leona had different singles for the UK release and different singles for the US release on her first album. For example in the US Leona only had 3 singles. And in the UK Leona had 5 singles.

I'll take Leona's word for it. She said it was between I Got You and Outta My Head for the 2nd single.
