I LOVE this album. Its really solid. To me Leona is a fantastic album artist rather than someone who makes the odd blockbuster single. I love every song on the album, except from Favourite Scar and When It Hurts. Everything else is great! However I would not have picked Trouble for the first single. Please let this be her 3rd No.1 album :)

I, for one, did not buy Trouble because I knew the album was coming out one week later. Many fans might have done the same. I LOVE the album. To me, Leona makes fantastic albums, rather than blockbuster singles. I love every song on Glass Heart except 2!

Surely Adele will be huge competition for Leona next week aswell! I think between Adele, Rihanna, One Direction, PSY, Swedish House Mafia etc., it will be a difficult week!

She should have used this single to release album No.2 this autumn. Strike while the iron is still hot!!

I got tickets for the Nottingham show. Looking forward to it! I'm going on my own though as none of my friends are Cheryl fans :rolleyes:

I think: Louise - Pandoras Kiss Eternal - Someday / Don't You Love Me are forgotten top10 hits. Actuallly they all made the top5. And they are never ever played on the Radio or mentioned really.

I remember a year or so ago the girls flew to Germany to meet a record company out there. And one of the girls posted a pic on twitter of the view from the offices of the record company. And then absolutely nothing came of their trip to Germany. So I am not expecting anything from this trip to LA yet. Will wait and see!

As far as I can see, when the music is good enough it will travel to other countries easily. The reason the Sats have remained in the UK market only is because they have had to constantly work at shoving sub par songs down everyones throat in the hope that a few would purchase it. For a band to spend the last 4 years touring the length of the UK numerous times only to see their album limp to No.23 and be released no where else is simply not good enough. Now if they come back with some genuinely brilliant pop songs they will easily sell in the UK and Europe without them having to worry about leaving one country in order to do a bit of promotion somewhere else.

What kind of album will it be, does anyone know yet. Will it be classical or pop or a mixture?

Yeah I used to love Samantha Mumba. Her album was really good. How she never realeased a follow up album, after her debut going top 10 in the UK and gold in USA, I will never know! And she had 6 top 10 singles in a row in the UK! She is doing panto in Dublin at the moment!

Interesting how One Direction, Westlife, JLS, The Wanted, Pixie Lott and The Saturdays have all (more or less) completely flopped with their latest singles in Ireland. None of them appear to be 'pops' biggest thing right now.

And Eternals 13th single was their first single to go to No.1. Maybe The Sats next single (their 13th aswell) can also go No.1 :yahoo: Wishful thinking :wub:

I find this whole Frankie situation unusual. I hope she is ok, it is a strange time to be missing so much promotion with the band. The tabloids/public don't seem too interested in whether Frankie is in the group or not. I haven't heard much about her being unwell. Also on another note, I think The Saturdays are too 'accessible' to fans. Sometimes mystery or a sense of a band being slightly untouchable to the public creates an aura of star quality around a band. The just seem like ordinary people who sing a bit. I don't think The Saturdays are a great band who are underachieving. I think they are an average band who are actually over achieving.

Well the Irish chart is not irrelevant to The Saturdays, considering they only ever release music in 2 countries, the UK and Ireland. If they were an international act, the Irish chart would not be important to them. As it stands though, they need every sale they can get.

But taking price into account, I am suprised Cher is ahead of The Wanted. I was sure The Wanted had a big enough fan base to buy there album at £7.50. And even if Cher is cheaper, you still wouldn't buy her album unless you really wanted it.

I didn't like her voice/tone on the X Factor and I still don't like it now I'm afraid :(

I am a big fan of pop music but I cannot see why Pixie is so popular. To me she has no star quality and her new single is average at best. Its like pop songs that were being released a few years ago. Nothing new or original or interesting anymore. I'd like it to go like this: 1. Leona 2. Maroon 5 3. The Saturdays (missing No.1 again :cry: ) 4. Pixie Lott 5. Example

The most exciting thing in the midweeks for me is that The Pierces are back in the Top 20!!! Wahoo :cheer: How did that happen?

Stereophonics Dina Carroll

3LW 911 :wacko: 2 Unlimited 4 Non Blondes Five And soon, 1 Direction!

I just think fair play to this girl for making the most of her 9th place on X Factor. Nobody would have really expected her to release a single and she could have easily been forgotten. She obviously is very keen to make it in the industry. I like the song and video and hope it does well.

Now that Cher is gone I hope One Direction win. They could make good pop songs. Matt and Rebecca are no where near as good as everyone thinks they are. They were completly over shadowed by Rihanna and Christina last night. And both of them do the same thing week in week out with no originality. The only positive thing about Matt 'I don't want to go back to being a painter' Cardle winning would be the hope that his careers follows the same path as Joe McElderrys.

I'm so glad Eteral are so high up the singles and albums listings. I really loved them. And with in-fighting in the group some of their singles were cancelled which wouldn't have helped their totals. Its a pity that they never get any media recognition of their achievements anymore. And I never hear them on the radio or mention anywhere anymore :unsure:

I know this sounds awful for a fan to say this but I think that part of the problem with The Saturdays is that the public cannot get to know each member of the band in the same way they can recognise and relate to a single solo singer. I just think with 5 girls in the band there is at least one too many. Its hard for the people who are not real fans to remember each member of a 5 piece group. I know some of my friends cannot distinguish each band member. This theory of mine of course does not mean the Frankie rumour is true. And having followed the girls performances, interviews, tweets etc. for ages now, I have always for the feeling that Una and Frankie are not the best of friends in the group (another theory of mine). So anyway apart from all this I think they were right to change management. Things were not working out before and they need to try what they can to grow the band further. I really hope it works out.

Did Chasing Lights not peak at No.11? I thought Wordshaker was their first top 10 album?
