  1. This song really translates well live. It was a real highlight on the tour, Leona put so much energy into it. I was a bit indifferent to this but seeing it performed live changed my mind.

    Going to my 2nd show in Birmingham tonight. This is Leona's best tour yet. It is great to see and hear the love from the crowd. The tracks from I Am translate so well live and the crowd were dancing in the aisles to FUFM. Good to see the venues crowded.

    So exciting to hear Ave Maria live. Roll on Wednesday and next Sunday. Her voice is really on top form now. I think I will need to take extra tissues.

    Absolutely stunning.

    For me, in the early days, vocal perfection was at the forefront, almost like a sing by numbers artist. That has all changed now, Leona has great emotional connection and a beautiful light and shade tone, and many of her performances have brought me to tears. She can still do great performances too. Look how powerful BL performance with Taylor was. I really want to hear the cover she has recently recorded.

    Was so looking forward to Paloma, but she was so irritating, it was horrible to watch. I know she is ditsy, but she was way over the top.
  7. The Time after Time cover was spine tingling. This type of song is what Leona excels in. Leona's voice sounds so pure and clear. I will be having this on repeat. Hope she sings this on tour.

    To say that Leona's voice isnt suitable for ballads is just beyond belief, how can this be taken seriously. I joined this forum for good discussions and it is a shame that this thread has been ruined by a troll. This might as well be ATRL, good luck Scene and Envoirment trying to keep things sane in here, going now for a listen to the brilliant I am.

    As a newcomer on here, I have tried to keep silent on some of the comments on the last couple of pages. I do feel though, that Low Hanging Peen really provoked this situation by saying Leona shouldn't embarrass herself by releasing albums. For me I am album is really lovely and it is sad that it is not getting recognition. I have particular love for Power, Ladders, IGY and Thick Skin. Would love to hear Power live.

    Good to see Leona climbing on the album itunes chart. It is a gem of an album.

    IGY from I am. This track is so good, hope it is the next single.

    I am really saddened that some of you find the new music weak, for me it is her best to date. Just listened to Power for the first time, what a track, what a vocal, my favourite so far. I am excited to hear Ladders and all the other tracks when the album arrives. Of course music is subjective so Leona will never please everyone, and of course her fanbase has varying ages and tastes. I am really surprised by the lovely lyrics this era and Leona's vocal is really the best it has been for a long while.
