Wow the Leona comparison has just killed this for me. No offense to her but we dont need another Leona.

I just can't wait for this!

DigitalSpy confirm that the album is 13 tracks long.

Songs that are confirmed:
Heaven
Daddy
Next To Me
Read All About It Part III
My Kind Of Love
Where I Sleep
Mountains
Maybe
River
Hope
Suitcase
Clown

That leaves one of 'Breaking The Law', 'Easier In Bed' and 'Kill The Boy' to be the final track.

DigitalSpy article

Six of the remaining ten tracks ('My Kind of Love', 'Where I Sleep', 'Mountains', 'Maybe', 'River', 'Read All About It Pt. III') immediately sound like potential singles.

Why is it called Pt. III, and not Pt. II?

by **urbanmusik** » Thu Jan 05, 2012 7:00 pm

I hope we get everything through bonus tracks, it'd be a shame not to get those three songs on the album.

I really want 'Kill The Boy' to make the final cut, but I love the trip-hop production on the demo version of 'Easier In Bed' and would love it to make the LP as well. 'Breakin' The Law?' is gorgeous as well, why can't we get them all?

There's a version of the song with Italian lyrics so that could be why?

Oh okay, thanks!

I think I've already heard most songs, only 5 songs I haven't heard from that list.
And none of them sound anything like Leona, so that review is a bit weird. Although I haven't heard the studio versions of most songs.

And how funny, I was actually thinking yesterday that she should do her own version of Read All About It! Excited to hear it. Do we know if Professor Green is one it aswell? Just like Love The Way You Lie part 2.

ALBUM SAMPLER

Album sounds great! If it sounds like a Leona Lewis album, it sounds like a bloody amazing one! :lol:

by **urbanmusik** » Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:14 pm

I'm disappointed 'Kill The Boy' and 'Easier In Bed' didn't make it, I hope she releases them as b-sides. The album sounds brilliant though, popjustice don't know what they're talking about when it comes to soul. I can't wait to hear the full version of 'My Kind Of Love'.

by **Vaner** » Tue Jan 17, 2012 5:24 pm

It sounds good, but I prefer not to say anything until I hear the whole album.

previews sounds really amazing, most anticipated album for me this year. 8-)

by **Pompeii** » Tue Jan 17, 2012 8:06 pm

My Kind Of Love, Where I Sleep and Suitcase sound amazing.

by **ludichris** » Tue Jan 17, 2012 8:17 pm

Not really feeling the previews that much. The singles were misleading.

by **Pompeii** » Tue Jan 17, 2012 8:18 pm

It certainly doesn't sound like a Leona Lewis album :lol:

I think it does a bit. The style of certain ballads on there and her voice itself is very Leona.

by **alxx** » Wed Jan 18, 2012 4:31 pm

I definitely got a few Leona vibes, previews sound good though!

by **UKMusicLova** » Thu Jan 19, 2012 11:50 am

A US release is on the cards this year too as she is signed to Capitol Records there!

by **Eamon** » Thu Jan 19, 2012 12:53 pm

I think the samples sound great. There are definitely some similarities between Leona and Emeli in their tone and the way they sing certain words but her album sounds so much better than any Leona album. She has put so much more of her personality into her songs than Leona ever has and they have so much more life too.

Longer snippets on iTunes!

'Tiger' is an iTunes bonus track

by **arronlei** » Mon Jan 23, 2012 6:28 pm

Just listened to samples,sadly not impressed. It sounds very bland adele type of faux soul,shame as I thought she seemed quite creative.

by **BLover** » Mon Jan 23, 2012 10:53 pm

"Maybe" and "Breaking The Law" are my favourite snippets. I'm missing a bit of the Drum & Bass and the Trip-hop-ish sound she was taking, but the album sounds quite good.

by **UKMusicLova** » Thu Feb 02, 2012 11:58 pm

I need to stop listening to the snippets otherwise the album is going to feel "heard" for me but I can't! They sound so amazing!!! I love when she uses her lower register in songs like 'Mountains'!!!

10 days to go!
