Let's start this off with a new one. Leona Lewis. Originally from Britain she was discovered by the show X-Factor of which she won. She was granted a 1 million pound contract to Simon Cowell's record label with Sony MG. Her first U.S. single "Bleeding Love" was originally written by Jesse McCartney, OneRepublic and Ryan Tedder. The song was originally for Jesse, but it was thrown to the cutting room floor for artistic purposes.
Now, I'm a fan of a woman who's got a strong voice and a strong range ( i.e. Christina Aguilera and Mariah Carey(minus Glitter)) but Leona is not doing it for me. Her voice is strong, clear and very good but I've heard it before. Its nothing new. "Bleeding Love" and "Better in Time" are great songs, don't get me wrong. But it's old. I'm done hearing pop beats with big runs on each note at the end. You gotta good voice. gimmie something new!
