Billboard have given it a great review:

 

Better in Time

LEONA LEWIS

Producer(s): J.R. Rotem

Label: Syco/J/Sony BMG

 

Five months ago we loftily predicted that Leona Lewis was destined to become the top newcomer of the year. But who could have seen the overwhelming force field of "Bleeding Love," striking through playlist records at top 40, adult top 40, AC, rhythmic, even Latin? Now it's time to let go—before the song burns to a crisp—and rest assured, there are plenty more high achievers on No. 1 CD "Spirit." "Better in Time" is of equal caliber to its predecessor, with a one-listen hook, elegant chug-along melody, a lyric about healing ("Thought I couldn't live without you/It's gonna hurt when it heals too") and Lewis' unquestionably emotive vocal versatility. "Better" is as good as "Bleeding" and an equal bid for No. 1. Girl, start clearing room for a 2009 Grammy sweep. —Chuck Taylor

I so want this to be Top 10/5/3/#1 in the US :wub:

 

I think it's going to do great! The official add date to radio is this Tuesday but it's already been playlisted on lots of radio stations and is in the top 60 on iTunes! :D

I've already heard it several times on Z100 (including today) and BLI (long islands main music station), obviously a good sign!!!

That is great. But hopefully it will re-enter the Hot 100 soon...

It might be in the lower regions in the next Hot 100. Possibly between #90 and #100. :)

After this having been out for months and never really liking Better In Time at ALL when I got the album I now actually love the track, such comforting lyrics. J'adore.
