In Common has really hit me, what a wonderful song <3 Really hope it can eventually go top 10, it'd be #1 in a shot if it was Drake laugh.gif

Well for the past however many years she has created pretty bland music (bar one or two songs). This song is a welcome change in tempo.

Total garbage. Normally i like Alicia's stuff but this wack as hell. It's a dance track but yet she is RnB. Right ? Seems like a rushed song

one of the best songs of this year, im completely on board for this era. 'Girl On Fire' was disappointing and this is a welcome change to her usual sound.

I wasn't keen on this at first, but after her Graham Norton performance it's really grown on me.

But you're a Leona stan, isn't that your thing?

It's not really dance, it's just a different kind of R&B really. It's just got a sort of Caribbean tropical/dancehall vibe, it's more modern R&B than her usual stuff, she's moving with the times which is good.

This is definitely in my top 5 songs of 2016.

Just so wonderful.

I really don't understand how you constantly get away with being rude on this forum. Am I not allowed to express my opinion because I'm a fan of Leona? Grow up.

So gorgeous. Love how raw and unprocessed the vocals sound.

She really is on fire this era so far.

New remix of 'In Common' featuring Kanye and Travis Scott out there now.

Seems entirely pointless and unneeded to me but I suppose anything to get it a little more attention is good, even despite it sounding so clunky. So gutted this passed most people by and didn't manage to do anything either side of the Atlantic. Definitely in my top 3 songs Alicia has ever released and one of the best songs of 2016.

THIS.

She can handle a flop but this deserved more. Let's hope the album doesn't suffer the same fate..!

'In Common' worked its way to become my second favourite of hers behind 'Try Sleeping...', I just love it. It deserved so much more.

Always great when an undeserved flop is recognised as such and isn't forgotten on forums etc., especially when subtlety is central to the appeal of a song like 'In Common', and it could be seen simply as a failed attempt to chase trends. I completely agree that it's a career peak of hers, which is obviously no small feat. I'll always think highly of it.

What I would really like is another "try sleeping with a broken heart" although just a minor top 10 hit, it was very good and my favourite of hers. The majority of the success of the parent album (can't remember name) was mostly down to New York constantly being played.
However great Try sleeping..... was I feel it was very of its time and Girl on fire (song) not really having same magic. I could though be wrong and she could have a huge Prince influenced song this fall.

The Element Of Freedom was the album - for me I love Doesn't Mean Anything and Love Is Blind! I like In Common - it's a solid song even if some of the lyrics in the second half don't really make sense to me (what even is that line about suppliers before randomly hopping into the chorus? laugh.gif)

Hopefully with her appearance on The Voice that'll remind people she's still around as its been nearly four years since Girl On Fire!

Hoping this is also on the album. I love the way the production suddenly switches up; she is really bringing her A game right now.
