Leono will of course be #1. TT's song is better imo, and although they are known for their huge promo, Leono has so much hype surrounding her and with Cowell behind her, the promo will be massive - especially if she is performing on the X Factor in front of 10m people. And if TT are on tour then they might not be able to promote alot, although they will probebly sing the song on tour so that will be good promo, but overall I think Leono will be #1, TT #2 and Mc$h!te #3. It will be a very interesting week anyway :D

 

People really dont have any taste if Leona's weak song will be number one. Yes, she'll be doing a hell of a lot of promo but TT, i am sure, will do a LOT of promo as well.Hopefully.Plus TT's fan base IS bigger than Leona's.

Leona will win. All of them are going to pull out all the stops to get #1 though so should be the best battle in a long time.

im sorry but Take Thats song is alot more boring and weak... ;) Leona's isn't at all -_-

Leona's isn't at all

Everyone entitles to their own opinion.

If Take That song was weak, there would'nt be THAT amount of requests on the Stardust forum. People seem to love it a LOT.

well 80% of people love Leona's song here and a few other places ive seen so it cant be that boring either.

Do you visit the IMDb site Locott? There is huge interest in the States for the TT song but they're leaving it bloody late to release it there (if they ever do). People who've seen the film half a dozen times have said the sound of it - all around is fantastic - it really serves its purpose ... and there were a hell of a lot of sceptics at first. OK some of them still don't like the idea of a boyband ... but they love that song.

 

As far as the UK - Leona will get to number 1 - hype and Simon Cowell will ensure that. But it doesn't deserve to - it is very, very bland.

It depends really on several factors, and I presume it will become clearer nearer to the date of release.

 

I must say that I think it's going to be between Take That and Leona, as McFly can only just about manage a number one by REALLY hyping the single and getting the fanbase going in a slow week with low single sales - surely they can't compete this time round?

 

Take That have the bonus over Leona of a few thousand hardcore people who will definitely buy the single the moment it comes out on a physical CD. They've also been away for a while, so it'll be a novelty to see them, and the HUGE advantage that 1.7m people or whatever it was just bought their album, and so are a solid potential market for a hitherto unreleased single. Also, the song is quite good.

 

Leona however has the benefit of being away a REALLY long time, so her return will no doubt be hyped to high heaven, and the advantage of a performance on the X-factor. She is a good live singer so there is unlikely to be any promo disasters, but can't acquit herself as well in interviews as Take That, who are extremely affable and have had much more practice. Having heard the song, it doesn't sound like the sort of thing many stereotypical singles buyers would be interested in - rather people would be more likely to wait for the album, possibly impacting performance in the chart.

 

Based on those factors, I think Take That would edge it.

 

However, there's so much more which is still to be decided - airplay stats, number of single formats, marketing spend, TV promo, quality of the video etc. - it's really hard to decide without these things.

Leona will edge it over TT and McFly

80% of people here seem to love people like Sophie Ellis Bextor but that doesn't get her anywhere!

 

Unfortunately

i was basing it on a few other places aswell ;) and this is her first proper single so is hyped up alot ^_^ whereas ake That were out a few months ago with a single....and i think Take That fans will want to wait for the album more then buying the single ;)

The Take That song isn't from a new album - its from the fantasy film Stardust. It may be included on a special edition of the Beautiful World album - but nothing is set in stone. I'll be buying the song because I've heard it a few times now and I really do like it. I think Leona's song, although not unpleasant, is a bit average (I was expecting so much more - given the length of time she's had to produce something). She'll still go to number one - as she has Radio 1 behind her already (yes I know Radio 1 is sh*te - but for some reaason it is still held in high regard) and Radio 1 will NOT play Take That! At least not until it is too late!

 

I do think though that they have a chance of a hit in the States with RTW - there is huge interest in the song and them from people who have seen the film. Nearly every second post on IMDb's Stardust message board is from people asking where they can get the song from.

Interesting that this battle is between the 3 artists who made up last year's Xmas top 3!

yes and it could be in the same order aswell

 

1-leona

2-take that

3-mcfly

Number One- Leona Lewis

Number Two- McFly

Number Three- Take That

 

McFly will drop the next week, Take That could climb to number 2 or to number 1.

Edited by Rampant Rabb!t

There is no new Take That album

 

There is a deluxe version of Beautiful World including a DVD but not until 19th November

 

they will probably add a few new tracks though wont they? surely this is bound to be one aswell ;)
