Then you aren't listening hard enough. It's got a lot of the trappings of a typical Sande song which is probably because she wrote it like you said.

It's not dark, it's generic. Another R'n'B song about a bad relationship? How dark and edgy!

It's about as dark as an episode of Spongebob Squarepants.

MeMyselfAndI 21-08-2012 12:04 PM

Its not AT ALL generic.
Generic is Alexandras HOH.
This is SO different & a risk

Tom4784 21-08-2012 12:06 PM

It's really not, maybe if you have a really limited view on music then it is dark and edgy otherwise it's rather typical.

MeMyselfAndI 21-08-2012 12:08 PM

It isn't, Its so different to everything at the moment, maybe you have a limited view

Tom4784 21-08-2012 12:09 PM

Hahaha, good one.

MeMyselfAndI 21-08-2012 12:13 PM

Also, everyone I can't wait for her to perform It Live, shes a proper artist, where you go to her tours and her voice is great. Thankfully shes not a generic artist that can't actually sing, like: Katy Perry, Lana Del Ray, Ke$ha, etc

Tom4784 21-08-2012 12:14 PM

Ke$ha and Katy Perry perhaps but Lana has more artistry in a single fingernail then Leona has shown throughout her career.

MeMyselfAndI 21-08-2012 12:16 PM

You've got to be able to sing to call yourself an artist

Tom4784 21-08-2012 12:22 PM

this old chestnut....You'll probably start banging on about sales next.

Leona's just a voice with nothing behind it. I'd rather have Lana's imperfect vocals but far superior songs to Leona's admittedly flawless voice but robotic approach to music.

MeMyselfAndI 21-08-2012 12:24 PM

Leonas achievements > Lanas achievements

rayheartbliss 21-08-2012 12:25 PM

lol it is generic
i do like it and will definitely buy the album


leona's problem is her management.

she releases her singles with 6 months or so gap. and each album only get 2 or 3 singles. the choices of song have become more generic everytime. bleeding love was grand, and she was very much leona the power voice at that time. now i can't help but think that she is weak-willed, 'can't breathe' not being released as a single is just dumb, it might never have reached number 1, but its sure would have made top 5. which is what she needs; number of hits, doesn't matter if its not number1 as long as she has an epic song in the charts. i mean can't breathe is easily a better song and more catchy that beyonce's halo.

also, did she not cancel her world tour because of her break-up?
i mean c'mon, i know thats a big thing for her but if anything her experiences should be motivating her to go out their and show what she does best.

she never seems to do any favour for herself, and its frustrating for her fans who wants her to do well and be recognised more that she deserves.

who cares about achievements when your music is generic and derivative? It's easy to do what Leona has done when you pander to the easiest demographics.

MeMyselfAndI 21-08-2012 12:28 PM

Its easy to do what Lana does 5/6.5billion have a voice like that, Leona actually has talent

Jords 21-08-2012 12:30 PM

oh dear

reece(: 21-08-2012 12:31 PM

No doubts that this will flop whilst all three artists that were mentioned as "generic" will sell out on their next albums. Sorry but no-one's hear for Leona anymore, nor Alexandra etc because none of them have anything to them, nothing stands out.

Tom4784 21-08-2012 12:32 PM

BAHAHAHA!

Oh MM&I, arguing with you is like boxing a toddler, it's too easy to win and it's just sad.

Smithy 21-08-2012 12:33 PM

meh, better than Collide, but I'm not overly keen, might grow on me though

Shoulda just used Scene of the Crime tbh

You're just gutted that I'm right, Lana Del Rays voice just aint good enough

rayheartbliss 21-08-2012 01:03 PM

lol
MM&I you've got to admit though she and her management are not really making her fans happy.
she barely releases a song, only two albums in her career, and how many times was the third one delayed for?

i do still like her very much and have way more respect for her than those 3 artist mentioned
but she annoys me because i want her to do well and she doesn't deliver. theres no one like her in the entertainment industry personality & talent wise, i mean who else has the abilty to hit a Mariah Carey note other than MC herself, with looks & talent like her she should be where rihanna is at her career.
