I like a bit more now. It kind of reminds me of 'The Sweet Escape' by Gwen Stefani. I don't like the backing singers they get so annoying.

I've heard it a few times now and I'm not keen.I'd say it is definitely one of her weaker songs.

I'd prefer Whatever It Takes or Homeless,

YES, it's my favorite Leona song. I love it, and I predicted it to be her next song. :cheer2:

most people will hate it at first but after a few listens its great.because its Leona and because its not on the album it will most lightly debut at #1

Callum

It sounds like a church song, lol. It is really good though, I'm glad she has decided to release it.

This will be her 4th Single, not 3rd.

And it sounds alright. I would have prefered Take a Bow to be fair.

most people dont count AMLT as a single.AMLT was released of the back off the back of a reality tv show in 2 countries.BL & BIT(not FITS) where released as singles from an album in every country in the world and FM will do the same.

Just because people dont regard it as her first single, doesn't mean it isn't :tongue:. Forgive Me will still be released as her fourth single.

I can see the sense of releasing it in the UK though. As it isnt one thats on the album, maybe they think more people will buy it. Its really growing on me :D

I absolutely hate it, It's a crappy song that is meant to tailor to a shallow R'n'B american audience and it shows. It's just awful.

Sam
30-05-2008, 10:40 AM
I love it, i'm happy she's releasing something upbeat. I think it will do really well because it isn't available over here, so more people will download it.

Matt08
30-05-2008, 11:18 AM
I've changed my opinion on this song now, I kinda like it but I wouldn't want her to release anything like this again. She's much better off sticking to her other type of music.
I can't see it doing as well as some of her other singles though.

Hugo
30-05-2008, 11:19 AM
I actually hate it now. When is it released?

Callum
30-05-2008, 11:28 AM
I've really gone off this song now. I used to love it, but now I think it's poor compared to her other music.

Everyone at the official Leona forum seems to think itll be Take a Bow. And I love that song.

Sam
30-05-2008, 12:11 PM
Personally, I'll think she'll release Forgive Me in late summer, then release a deluxe version of her album, and then maybe go back to Take a Bow or possibly I Will Be. Should be interesting.

yeah they do...but its defonetly not TAB now that RIhanna has a single called TAB out.but if you go on the unofficial forum(which is the most popular and best one)LeonaLewisFansite.co.uk and read the posts on the nest single thread it definetly looks set to be FM

i doubt it.shes doing TV shows & music festivels in Germany this week and then Spain,France & Italy after that to promote Better In Time and then shes returning to promo in the UK in end June/begining of July which will probably be for FM

I never actually said if I liked it.. and I do. Its a nice change:bigsmile:

MarkWaldorf

I hope she releases this here! I think of the reasons BIT didn't do as well as BL was because everyone already had the album (where as they didn't when BL came out) so it should be anticipated here.

i prefer Misses Glass but its not as radio friendly as Forgive Me or as catchy,and Forgive Me is a Summer song.

Really? Wow, I didn't know that.
Not just that though, like the bit where she walks into the road with the girls behind her is like Christina's, and the whole pink clothing thingy.
Also with the boys vs girls dance thing in the middle of the street

I knew it reminded me of that.

Anyway the video suits the song incredibly well.

I get what the you mean, especially toward the end.
In my opinion she doesn't suit doing extra 'ooo' 'aaa' bits sliced in. Sing it normally and show off what an amazing voice she has.

Dunno just bits now and again, like ghetto said, it tends to be when she does her "oo" and "aa" bits... hey I could be wrong just saying some bits don't sound right to me...

i just asked you what bits does she sound out of tune.wow i never knew people took internet forums so seriously.
anyway..i can see where your coming from.she does the ab-libing different in the album version so if you listen to that it mightnt sound out of tune.
