Avril Lavigne & Leona Lewis "I Will Be"

C

CHRles

By now I'm sure many of you are familiar with Leona Lewis's latest US release, a cover version of Avril's "I Will Be".
It turns out there's a great version that combines both versions together:

Just heard this version played at one of the CHRs in Greece called Music Life Radio 95.1. Are there any stations in the US playing it yet?
 
Looking at the Quick Cut data on Mediabase, it's not showing any spins yet... Given that Leona's version is just getting started, I don't look for the "combo" version to get too many spins yet. Down the road though, I could see it happening.

As for Leona's version, it's already up to #33 at CHR. 106 of the 133 CHR/Pop reporters are already on it according to Mediabase...

One of the first large market stations to add it was KIIS here in L.A...

While I don't think it will spend 10 weeks at #1 like "Bleeding Love" did or go top 3 like "Better In Time," it should be a pretty big here at pop radio... top 15 at the least and hopefully top 10.
