Lift Me Up

Thats how the UK iTunes would look by now if it had been released when they said originally. IMO it could have broken her own record for number of downloads in 24 hours. Simon said all that needed saying...... "incredible, absolutely incredible". i thought some of her live performances during X factor 2 years ago were as close to perfection as you can get but you can always do better and this performance has proved that perfection is no longer the limit for Leona !! this song has the potential to be bigger worldwide than Bleeding Love by a country-mile. Does Simon know what he's unleashed ?

Could swear deluxe was on itunes earlier. but its not now :-( nor is Run, obviously.

Breathtaking performance. I don't know how anyone could do ANY song better. Certainly showed up the current bunch of hopefuls (and MC from last week !! ). It left me speechless Saturday, not often Simon is so completely blown away. I predicted Friday it would be No1 but I'll change my mind... like lots of others have done if the voting/poll is anything to go by...... I now predict number 1 before anyone can blink once its released. Awesome song by SP, arranged and sung to perfection by the very gifted Leona. Should be an unstoppable combination.

Thats a good point. And of course some will buy the deluxe album so standalone downloads. I'll stick my neck out though and say it will reach number 1........ at least on iTunes anyway. If she doesn't perform it on X factor then I predict just about top10. Slightly off-topic....... will any of the XFactor mob do a Leona song as its best of British this week ? Alex - Bleeding Love ? I'd love to see Diana do Duffy's mercy ?

Saturday's appearance on X factor may well push Forgive Me back up the charts and if she's doing this song too (but I thought she was saving this for DivasII on 23rd) then it could well overtake FM and maybe even get to number1.......... afterall there are 10million+ people watching Xfactor. This is the kind of song/material the majority of Leona fans want from her (IMO), its the perfect showcase for her amazing vocal agility, power and accuracy.

Am i right to think Billboard Hot 100 is published on Wednesdays each week ? but at what time ? Want to see if Mimi knocks Leona off the top. The irony for Leona if she does......... knocked off top spot by one of her idols !

what about Christmas Wrapin by The Waitresses ? no idea what year or whether it got top 40 but heard it on radio the other day.............. must retune to a different station !! :blush:
