March 21, 200817 yr duh, i know music maniac, but how long will mariah carey's song last on top, u know madonna's new single is digitally released the same day. have u seen her commercial promoting the new single. that's how u get sales on itunes (promotion). it would be exciting 2 see
March 22, 200817 yr thanx shindymindy. i need 2 hear that. leona will def be number 1. i at least want her to be number 1 for 1 week. as long as she's number 1, i'm good
March 23, 200817 yr Unlikely. Keeping in mind that within the next 2/3 weeks Mariah has Oprah, American Idol (3 times), The Today Show, Regis & Kelly, Late Show with Letterman... yes but Mariah's single is dreadful unlike Leona's'Bleeding love' which has more staying power than the lame 'Touch my body'....
March 23, 200817 yr SHE DOES NOT DESERVE N.1 on comparison to LEONA'S bleeding love the latter is the best song of all time (and it is best for this period) Edit- Bleeding love $h!ts all over that and its a far bigger smash, TMB is good but it wouldn't do so well if it wasnt mariah releasing it. And no doubt bleeding love will have more longevity like apologize did. Well done to leona to get to #8 with no promotion which is the highest for a debut British artist since james blunt, she has surpassed amy winehouse who peeked at #9, leona hasnt even peeked yet!! i knew she would do it- breaking the states is imminent, there bleeding love for leona out there :D Edited March 23, 200817 yr by utoia2004
March 23, 200817 yr OMG i nearly spat my coffee out at that comment. TMB the best song for this period, haha funniest thing ever. Bleeding love $h!ts all over that and its a far bigger smash, TMB is good but it wouldn't do so well if it wasnt mariah releasing it. Amd no doubt bleeding love will have more longevity like apologize did. Well done to leona to get to #8 with no promotion which is the highest for a British artist since james blunt, she has surpassed amy winehouse who peeked at #9, leona hasnt even peeked yet!! i knew she would do it- breaking the states is imminent, there bleeding love for leona out there :D Erm... SHE DOES NOT DESERVE N.1 on comparison to LEONA'S bleeding love the latter is the best song of all time (and it is best for this period)
March 23, 200817 yr To be honest as much as I love Leona (and everybody knows I do) i'm beginning to actually WANT Touch My Body to beat her to #1 just to shut up psychotic fans. :rolleyes:
March 23, 200817 yr Okay enough already. This thread is giving me a headache. If the fighting continues, I'll have to close it. =/ It's one thing to dislike a song; it's another to go on a tirade against it simply because it might hold off your favorite song from the top. Let's be civil here. =/

March 23, 200817 yr :o :nono: Leona will hopefully get it at least one week followed by Mariah ^_^ Jamesy my dear you KNOW I love Leona and nothing would please me more than her to be #1, but everyone slagging off Mariah because she's a huge threat to Leona's potential #1 is completely absurd.
March 23, 200817 yr Jamesy my dear you KNOW I love Leona and nothing would please me more than her to be #1, but everyone slagging off Mariah because she's a huge threat to Leona's potential #1 is completely absurd. well yes i agree there but they are both worthy number 1s imo :wub: and you will always get crazed fans that do that unfortunately :(
March 23, 200817 yr I'm a bit saddened to see that Leona has these sort of fans, I think we should be as nice as Leona is. Surely they should know that some members on here have put others off artists by the way they act. (I'm thinking Girls Aloud, Madonna and the Sugababes) I don't want Leona fans to be chucked into that camp. I would love to see Leona and Mariah make the #1 spot over the next fortnight, unfortunately it looks like Leona may miss out, but I love "Touch My Body" so I'll be pleased for Leona no matter what. She's cracked the top 10 with the single now and I am pleased for that. All she needs is the album to do well there and I will be a happy little fan, she'll have been successful in most of the world.

Ive said this once before and i will say it again! It will be amazing if Leona makes top 5 in America because it is VERY RARE that UK artists perform so well in America especially! I also love Touch My Body! But obviously i want Leona to be Number 1 more (because shes british lol) but i understand that number 2, 3, 4 or anywhere inside the Top 10 in America is BRILLIANT achievement for UK Artists!
March 23, 200817 yr Im really happy for Leona and I bet Leona will be just as happy at getting Number 8 this week than getting Number 1, because like i keep saying its an AMAZING achievement! Just imagine OVERALL Sales for Bleeding Love! :o :dance:
March 24, 200817 yr To be honest as much as I love Leona (and everybody knows I do) i'm beginning to actually WANT Touch My Body to beat her to #1 just to shut up psychotic fans. :rolleyes: I was thinking the same there for a little while. -_- It would be nice to see her at #1 but realistically it might not happen and it's not definite either. It's obvious 'Bleeding Love' will still rise from its current position inside the top 10 so the track is doing wonders already! I'm sure it'll stick around for a while too.
March 24, 200817 yr personally, i think leona lewis will make it to #1. it will just take some time to get #1 because fergie's biggest hot "big girls don't cry" hit #1 in its 20th week. if it waits a while to get to #1 while being in the top 10, it can beome one of the biggest hits for 2008. touch my body seems like a song that will be here than gone the next. bleeding love reminds me of "apologize" and "big girls don't cry" because of their longevity and they been released on itunes for a while.
March 24, 200817 yr To be honest as much as I love Leona (and everybody knows I do) i'm beginning to actually WANT Touch My Body to beat her to #1 just to shut up psychotic fans. :rolleyes: These 'psychotic fans' you refer to are in the minority. Fact is that some people don't like TMB and think it's only doing well because it's Mariah. I'm in the camp that think it's an ok song but wouldn't be doing as well as it is on airplay if it wasn't for Mariah. I wouldn't mind if it made #1 on the Hot 100 though over Leona as I never expected Leona to even make top 5.
