January 24, 201016 yr Has it happened before, that an artist promoting a new studio album, finds the first one rising above it in the album chart???? I don't get it. Why aren't Leona fans buying her new album? Answering my own question, I wonder if it's simply to do with the album cover for Echo, which tries to portray her as some sort of sexy siren, which is just the wrong image for her. People see her or hear her around, but prefer the more 'leona' type of album cover on Spirit, so buy that. Edited January 24, 201016 yr by fatmuffin

January 24, 201016 yr Tbh, practically all FANS have bought both Spirit & Echo. The sales, say, the month after the album release are mostly due to casual buying public. We have at least two examples in the current climate when the first album outshadows the follow-up: Leona's Spirit & Echo, and Saturdays' Chasing Lights and Wordshaker. The things have changed after the release of the second single and perfomance on DoI for Sats, so I'll predict the same for Leona. :)

The thing with Spirt (and Chasing Lights for that matter) is that both are going very cheap in the sales! Everywhere i see both albums, they are being sold at less than a fiver!

January 25, 201016 yr Oh come on....who is seriously not going to buy an album cos of the cover art? The thing with Spirt (and Chasing Lights for that matter) is that both are going very cheap in the sales! Everywhere i see both albums, they are being sold at less than a fiver! I know it seems ridiculous, I was just trying to make sense of it. I didn't realise Spirit was in the sales, so thanks, that explains it much better!
March 6, 201016 yr Could somebody pls post the list of download only singles for the full Top 75 as of chart date? Many thanx in advance!
