Run by Leona Lewis

Category: , ,


Leona Lewis will release her cover of Snow Patrol's Run as a single – after her record company were forced to give into public pressure.

Lewis' label Sony BMG initially refused to release Run as a single, instead making it available on a reissue of her 2007 debut album, Spirit.

The song had been introduced by presenter Dermot O'Leary as "her next single" when she performed it on The X Factor earlier this month - and fans reacted badly when it was revealed that it would not be released as a single.

Now the decision has been reversed, the track will be available as a download from November 30.

Category:


More than a dozen of the world’s most accomplished female recording artists – a cast that includes Mariah Carey, Beyoncé, Mary J. Blige, Rihanna, Fergie, Sheryl Crow, Miley Cyrus, Melissa Etheridge, Ashanti, Natasha Bedingfield, Keyshia Cole, Ciara, Leona Lewis, LeAnn Rimes, and Carrie Underwood – have joined together for Just Stand Up, an unprecedented charity single in support of Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C), a new initiative to raise philanthropic dollars for accelerating ground-breaking cancer research.

American songwriter and producer Antonio 'L.A.' Reid conceived the collaboration after a powerful and inspiring meeting with the women who organized the Stand Up To Cancer campaign.

Reid co-produced the track with Kenny 'Babyface' Edmonds, and the single was released on August 21, 2008.

The song is all about the singers and the composers banding together behind SU2C’s mission: rallying the public around the goal of ending cancer’s reign as a leading cause of death.

The singers performed the song live on the Stand Up to Cancer event which aired simultaneously on ABC, CBS and NBC on September 5.

After breaking onto the scene with the 2007 hit single Apologize, OneRepublic says their ready for the next album.

"We're definitely ready and inspired for the new album, which is part of the reason why we got off the road," the band told Billboard.

While on tour earlier this year, the band "kind of got inspired by a couple of songs" and wound up tracking new tunes in Germany and Japan.

The Colorado band said: "The new stuff is a real blend of rock mixed with pop and some of the songs are clearly like top 40 and other stuff is going to be a little more obscure."

Current plans call for OneRepublic to finish touring in early January, with the band convening a month later in a Denver-area house or perhaps an old church to record its second Mosley/Interscope album.

The band is hoping to have the record out by summer or fall 2009.

Eminem has reportedly pushed back his forthcoming new album titled Relapse for 2009 U.S. release.

Despite previous hint claiming the album was set for a December release, the upcoming album has been held back for 2009 U.S. release.

"There's a 50-50 chance it will be done by the end of this year - but most likely it'll be the first quarter of next year," a source told New York Post.

The source also revealed that it was Eminem's perfectionism which makes his upcoming effort pushed back.

"Eminem has been through a lot," the source stated. "He is being a perfectionist and is completely obsessive-compulsive about this album."

Eminem's camp have been silent when asked about the album's fixed release date. His representative even said, "There was never a release date set."

Relapse is Eminem's sixth major studio album. Dr. Dre and DJ Premier were reportedly signed to handle the production process of the record.

Meanwhile, 50 Cent and T.I. collaborate with the Detroit rapper on several songs off the installment.
