Posted May 23, 201114 yr http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/news/a32...e-festival.html This is a great opportunity for her and I can't wait to see her perform. No doubt she will be singing a lot of songs from the then-released third album.
June 18, 201213 yr This Saturday! :D She confirms here she's going to be performing new material woohoo! http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/18441650
June 23, 201213 yr Looks like we're getting the premiere of the next single today at the Hackney Weekend performance! @FraserTSmith a world premier always feels good ;-)https://twitter.com/#!/dennisjauch @dennisjauch - and will sound amazing . . . https://twitter.com/#!/FraserTSmith :D
June 23, 201213 yr She sang a new song called 'Come Alive', But she said its off her new album, Didnt say nothing about first single.
June 23, 201213 yr I'm loving this live version of 'Come Alive' on first listen - it will be incredible in studio version! :wub:
June 23, 201213 yr Just in case you didn't know, Leona Lewis & Rita Ora @ The Hackney Weekend is on BBC 3 tonight at 11 pm :D
June 23, 201213 yr I was rather hoping we'd get just 'Better In Time' on it's own again :( But I do like the 'Man Down' mash-up of it. 'Come Alive' sounds good. I had trouble hearing the verses, but I'm sure it'll be a lot better in studio form. Listening to and hearing 'Bleeding Love' again is amazing. I've not listened to it for a while and it's so, so good! Such a timeless classic, imo. :wub: And 'Run' for that matter. Wasn't really feeling 'Collide' in that performance though. Nice little set from her. Just hurry with the damn album, missy!
June 24, 201213 yr I'm a huge fan of Leona, but I thought this whole set was a bit lacklustre. What was the first song she did? Not a fan of that. Better In Time mashup was good on Live Lounge before but wasn't feeling that performance. The new song sounded decent, Chorus sounded great but the verses seemed to fall flat a bit. That was probably my worst ever performance of Bleeding Love she normally nails every performance of it but it seemed like she struggled to hit some of the notes and didn't bother with half of them. Never been a huge fan of Collide. Run was the best of the lot but even that sounded no where near as good as what I'm used to hearing from her. Really hoping that 'Trouble' and the album and whatever performances she does next can be alot better or I'm worried from her. And I'm just being honest here. I'm a big fan, I have all of her records and she was amazing live on the Labyrinth Tour when I saw her!
June 24, 201213 yr She was brilliant, by far the best singer live I know of. You just know she's not gonna disappoint. I also really like Come Alive off her new album, totes excited for it.
June 24, 201213 yr Come Alive is amazing! I really loved her set other than the cover of Coming Home which I don't think worked that great. Her voice sounded amazing on Bleeding Love - she's definitely still got it! :D
June 26, 201213 yr Loved the set. :D I think her microphone could have been turned up a bit more but she smashed it. :D
June 26, 201213 yr I thought Leona was the highlight of the day (although she's the only person I saw at Hackey that I'm a massive fan of, so that was a little expected). I was worried she'd not be able to nail Bleeding Love/Run as well these days but she delivered and the atmosphere when she hit the notes was epic. I thought it was nice that she started with Coming Home considering she was playing in her hometown. Collide was a poor performance of a poor song but HEY, you can't have everything.

Maybe it was just the atmosphere from being there, but I thought she did hit the notes on "Bleeding Love" and "Run". She was generally a bit average as a performer, but I thought she really shone on the ballads. It was actually when I saw her on tour that I was disappointed by her holding back from hitting the big notes. I'll have to watch it back.
