Brit Awards 2009 [Official Topic]
Yeah, sorry, I didn't word that correctly. I meant snub in the sense of not performing. It could be the other way round, though. It's just all so baffling. I mean, I could *so* understand if she hadn't made such an impact. I'm not saying this as a blind Leona fan, either.

Lil Wayne - Prom Queen
Oh, and Hot Revolver has now leaked. It's likely going to be on the album. It's another rock cut, but it has more mass appeal than Prom Queen, I think. I can't wait for the HQ of this one...

Brit Awards 2009 [Official Topic]
I have a feeling she's going to snub the Grammys. A source on Pulse advised she's only performing at the Pre-Grammy show. Makes sense. J Records must be pissed at the BNA snub. It's not even like they can defend it by using the old "we only are interested in artistic, creative music" as they've nominated the Jonas Brothers and Katy Perry. Gimme a break.

Lil Wayne - Prom Queen
He's always had a thing for rock. He did a rock remix to Lollipop and adds a lot of rock elements to his songs at gigs and stuff. It really is him trying something new that he's interested in. I think it's clear he's not going to open with a million record sales for Rebirth, though. With reviews being split down the middle, he may have lost a lot of his core fanbase. Like I said, this isn't the "big one" - he's saving that for The Carter Pt. 4.

WWE Royal Rumble 2009
Wow. What a thrilling show. Even Cena v. JBL was exciting (mainly for the booking of the HBK scenario, but STILL!). The Hardys? Wow, now that was a surprise. I kinda thought it was leading there until all of these Christian rumours kicked in. Brilliant ending to a really good match. Can't wait to see where this angle goes. The Rumble was great, but it was too overloaded at some points. RVD's return was a one-time appearance, but it was nice to see him back (even if his offense is a little weak ;)). I KNEW Orton would win. He just *had* to. HHH came out looking like a star though, surprise surprise. Two Elimination Chambers at NWO again? Didn't think they would do the double again. It'll sell the PPV, though. I'm so pumped for Cena v. Orton. Maybe a "McMahon in each corner" of sorts again? I think Stephanie will align with Orton at some point...

Lil Wayne - Prom Queen
It's a real grower. I've been listening to it on repeat today. It's one of those songs you'll either love or hate. A lot of people think it sounds dated, but I don't quite get that. Either way, you've got to admire Weezy stepping out of his comfort zone, like, completely. The more I hear this, the more I just cannot see this doing well on Urban radio in the US. It goes for adds tomorrow, and I know it's Lil' Wayne, but I just can't see it! I hope I'm wrong.

Justin Timberlake - Bigger Than The World
Yet again, another track that sounds like it's a leftover of his last album. I'm not digging this at all. It's OK, and I'm glad it's leaked now so we know it won't be used as his next lead single.
-
The Script -The Script/4th Single - Talk You Down Thread
I actually bought their album off iTunes, and was pleasantly surprised. There some nice little chill-out tracks on the record. I can't stop listening to Breakeven. Talk You Down is OK, too.

Kanye West feat. Rihanna 'Paranoid' // February 2009
I don't know whats going on with this. This is going for adds, but See You In My Nightmares AND Paranoid are also still listed. If SYW is the next single, that's a big mistake and could kill this era. If they wanted another hit, they should've stuck with Paranoid (w/ Rihanna) or gone with Amazing or SYIMN. It's an OK album song, but it's so not a single.
-
Lil Wayne - Prom Queen
Sounds good, but it's a shame he's ditched the rapping. I think he's trying to do a Kanye and prove he's a "genius". The single is very good though. It's anything but urban, but it'll still probably do well in the US because it's Lil' Wayne. I knew he was doing a rock album, but that production is crazy. Even if this album does stink, it's only to hype the next Carter album, so it's not a big deal anyway.

Most Played Leona song?
Bleeding Love. I only got my iPod Touch in November of last year, but BL is a timeless classic (for me) and I can't get enough of it.

"I Will Be" • North American Single
About bloody time! Anyway, the video is OK. It doesn't touch UK BL, which is a shame because it looked like her most interesting one in the pics. It starts off good, but it was just the same thing practically the whole way through. Not great.

Brit Awards 2009 [Official Topic]
Don't get me started. I know people love to rant and all, but my blood REALLY does boil when I think of the Jonas Brothers being chosen over Leona, LOL. That makes the entire BNA category lose all credibility. I think *everyone* knows that though.
-
Brit Awards 2009 [Official Topic]
Exactly. Nothing's guaranteed with Leona, however successful she is. After the BNA snub it's definitely not a good sign going into the Grammys. I mean, of all the awards not to be nominated for, it seems so criminal for her to be snubbed for THAT award. She's had so much success; way more than a lot of the nominees in that catagory.

Brit Awards 2009 [Official Topic]
I think she's a shoe in for Pop Vocal Performance. That's general feeling. Pop Vocal Album will probably go to The Eagles, and while Record of the Year is definitely a possibility, I think Viva La Vida has this one. Leona had the bigger hit, but these are same bunch who voted Clocks Record of the Year at the Grammys in 04. VLV is such a Grammy winning song. Her BNA snub is very telling, so she might walk away with nothing. At least she got nominated, right? UGH. ;)

Better In Time
She deserved best female, too. But seriously, whaaa...? I love BIT as much as anyone, but there's just no chance of this winning. I think this is the one that's voted by the fans, too. Run stood a good chance of winning (though I doubt it actually would've) but BIT won't do anything. Maybe it's that cover "thing" people hate on...

WWE Royal Rumble 2009
I'm only saying one thing... Orton is GOD. Well, OK I'll say a little more. I think we've seen a new shift. This Orton kick has created a buzz. The next few months are crutial. Yeah, Orton's a big star but only since his return has he been growing rapidly. I think he has a good chance at becoming the next *real* bad ass. Like I've said before, he's like a smarter, slicker version of Steve Austin. His facials are so full of venom. I'd quite like Orton v. Austin, but I'm hoping for Orton v. Cena at Mania. It's got a whole new dynamic now. Orton's character is so deep, and he is the mirror opposite of Cena. This time, the feud would have depth. I just think Orton's on such a roll, and they've done wonders booking him. I hope he wins the Rumble. It might make sense too; he wins the Rumble before being "fired" on Raw the next night, thus giving him immuity because he has a contract to fight in the ME at Mania? It's possible.

What Leona song are you listening to?
I've been loving "Yesterday" a lot recently. Great contemporary ballad. I wish they would've released this in the US if they had to release another ballad. It's very current with a great crescendo. It's a shame the lyrics are just a little corny. ;)
