"Bleeding Love"

Anyone else a new Leona Lewis fan? I always thought she was good back on the X Factor (like everyone!), but this song is really in another league to the stuff you get on shows like this. IMO she trumps Kelly Clarkson as well in terms of vocal ability.

Video for Bleeding Love:

Support her by buying this single so we can actually here more from this talented young artist!

I don't see the fuss over it. I've been on a few sites that keep praising her and saying the song is fantastic and really shows that we might have another diva newcomer, but I didn't care for it much. There was no exciting hook or anything like that to draw me in at all. The girl obviously can sing, but this song was not impressive to me.

It's getting ridiculously overplayed. And the 'my heart is crippled' and 'you cut me open and I keep bleeding love' connotations gross me out

I'd say it's still got 'Reality TV star' written all over it. That they made her wait a year was a smart move, but it won't work for anyone else, and were yet to see if it will pay off for her in the long run.

She didnt impress me with her performance on Saturday's X Factor - Really if she wanted to make any money she should have released an album of anything months earlier.

I love how the Central News guy interviewed her and then when he thought his microphone was off he said "She had the personality of a dead fish" - Which is true, she isnt really an interesting person

Nah, she has a great voice, that is all that matters. We all knew from watching her before she is really conservative and lacks outward personality. However, her innocence and reluctance to really be a typical diva is much preferred IMO to the OTT "cuteness" we see from a lot of pop singers nowadays.

Though I doubt she will ever shed the X-Factor image, this song does take a step away from all of that.

True but of cause, on saturday it seems she was miming - And she was singing live on today's Loose Women. It did not sound good at all, at points when backing vocals came in it just sounded like one whole massive mess

But why would she lip-sync when you have this performance? Unless she was told to, which is stupid;



I'm 99% sure she was live that day anyway. And you all can't deny she's very talented, you've seen how she sings, she's just not to everyone's tastes, like every singer. 'Bleeding Love' and 'Spirit' are both pretty much garunteed a sucess anyway.

Oh and, I bought the single today. <3

I don't think she mimed on Saturday



She just used predominant backing vocals during the chorus.
