Happy for her and as for new music, I decided a long time ago to stop hoping and if something happens then it happens.

She has been weirdly teasing a lot of music studio posts the last few weeks, including a post asking if we want a disco track with her, which did pique my interest but again I know better than to actually believe it will lead to anything.

Yes and Autumn posted about looking forward to her new project and something about a new era. Perhaps she'll try and fit in a new album before the baby arrives.....yeah right!! Lol.

I wish her a baby but I also wish her success in the music industry. Although she has of course not done her best to boost her career in recent years. Apparently she likes it that way. She is at peace with what she has achieved, but that does not alter the fact that it is a shame that she did not really put more energy into it. Because she has so much potential! That's a shame! I wouldn't be surprised if she's going to cancel that Christmas tour now...

A new song with Alexis Ffrench is out today, its nice and she sounds great, loving the 'operatic' like notes.



Also a song labelled as Sean Paul and Dua Lipa, which leaked a couple years ago, is actually Leona. Second Sean and Leona track to leak.



This is from a week ago.

Saw the new Avatar trailer in the cinema today and the familiar theme music started playing at the end, and it made me wonder if they'll use I See You in the promotion again, considering it's built specifically around that music. That was such a wasted opportunity. A good promo push could have made that song a massive global hit.

Heard “Bleeding Love” in a Lyft today and it made me think of Leona, and the time I met her several months back. I was in line for the toilet at a popular vegan restaurant in Echo Park and she was behind me. We had to wait ages (god knows what they were doing in there), she struck up a conversation and was absolutely lovely. Zero ego, we chatted away about veganism, animal welfare, living in LA, etc. I didn’t even realize who she was until she mentioned she was an “artist,” at which point (also thanks to the accent) it hit me. Her profile was never massive here so I think she can basically go about her business unbothered.

She’s warm and wonderful, I hope she can find some success again, whatever success means to her. She still has one of the legendary and iconic voices.

She sounds really beautiful on “One Look”. Actually the best she’s sounded in years maybe, especially on a studio track. There was a bit of nasal quality here and there but mostly her voice sounded full of warmth and emotion.

That Sean Paul song in its current form is…well I can see why they passed on it. Now if she’d gotten “Got 2 Luv U”, that would’ve been the hit she needed at the time to revive some interest (didn’t she pass on this too or is that an untrue rumour?)

You see, I already had a feeling she was going to reschedule or cancel the tour. Bad for the people who had already bought a ticket. Anyway, covid has asked a lot of us as humans in terms of patience. So this can also be added. And I understand her choice. Everything for a quiet start to motherhood of course!

Understand her reasons but don't get why she's waited so long to make the decision. She knew her due date ages ago so not sure why she didn't postpone not long after announcing her pregnancy instead

I like that. The piano is quite haunting in places. It's a lovely song.

Leona sounds good - her head voice is reliably strong and where she excels and this track takes advantage of that. The autotune or pitch correct is heavy in some of the transitions through her other registers though, where her voice is a bit shakier nowadays. But overall it's a good vocal.

Apparently she's still been in the recording studio quite a bit so hoping she'll return to music at some point after the baby arrives. I know she'll have her new family life but don't want her to retire from music completely.

Not me finding out that I've been living under a rock, because I only just found out recently that I Will Be had a music video and a proper single release in North America (while Run was released in Europe).

Also, do you think that a third Spirit single between BIT/FPIS and Forgive Me would have been good idea or would it be too jampacked?
