imagine if she did a Medley of We Found Love, Impossible & Halo :D the shade of it all haha...
Then she sings Bleeding Love singing...
"your songs sales are crippled by the longevity bleeding love is having".... "it's still charting and IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII KEEP SLAYING I KEEEP SLAYING"
I'd love for her to do some curve balls on her tour, I loved her covers of They Don't Care About Us and Sweet Dreams because they were unexpected. I also loved Man Down for that reason. Her doing a ballady version of a dance song/rock song is a bit boring now imo.
What songs do you guys want Leona to cover on her tour?
Your Eyes Open by Keane. One of the best choruses I ever heard in my life. She does the indie/alternative covers so well and it's not a typical choice.
She should take fan requests and perform a different song each night like Kelly Clarkson did at her last tour. That would be really good.
The reason Leona and Labrinth haven't worked together is down to Labrinth I would imagine, not Syco. He said a few months back he would never work with X Factor singers.
I think she's going to do a cover of Kissing You from Romeo and Juliet because she said the tour is gonna be kinda romantic about love etc. ....
That wouldn't surprise me, didn't she mention in an interview there was a Romeo & Juliet theme? And she's sang that song a couple of times! The karaoke performance was amaaaaazing
Edit: Nvm, I was listening to the build up. D7 is the peak note at the end. It goes G#6-A6-C#7-D7 I believe? I'm a bit ill atm so my hearing isn't 100%

I know, she's amazing I just felt like posting that slay note (peak is D7) ...that's not the highest she can go either. I think she has a similar range to Mariah....>>>>
I'd like to see Leona push her limits vocally, I've always had this feeling that she's held back her true range.

Tamar can't go as low as Mariah. Her low notes get quite weak at E3 and inaudible under it. But I think she could definitely go up into the middle-upper 7th Octave, possibly 8th, as she had quite a lot of ease going up to that D7.
In regards to Leona, she is DEFINITELY holding back her range. Leona has gone into the 7th Octave multiple times I bet. Like seriously, if someone like me can go up to F6/F#6, not trained or anything then I'm pretty sure that Leona, a trained classical singer with a much higher voice than mine, could go into the 7th octave.

She can hit C3, she did it on her reality show when she was making fun of Toni, she definitely hit the notes from Unbreak My Heart. I definitely know Tamar can hit at least as high as Mariah's top notes.
Leona I think she's capable of at least C7, just like I think Nicole is as well, they are both classically trained so I just have this feeling that they can. Especially Leona, maybe she's not confident with it? I'm not sure. We should ask her when she does #AskLeona.
Leona needs to work on her low end though, Fingerprint showed massive growth, but I still think it's her only weakness.

She hit a breif Eb3 in "her" version of "Unbreak My Heart" and it was very low in volume. Her C3 the same. She is very similar to Leona in that respect. I think she could hit a B2, but it would cause her to strain/it would be quite quiet I think. Perhaps when her voice has darkened more, when she's in her 50s, will she be able to go down as low as Mariah. But at the same time Mariah's voice would have darkened and might be able to go down lower! Mariah's gone down to F2 before in the studio and G#2 live. Plus, her rendition of Stevie Wonder's "You And I" is AMAZING! So many Bb2/B2/C3/C#3/D3s lol. Anyway away from Mariah/Tamar lol.
Leona could go higher, and I don't think it's a confidence thing. I just don't think she feels that she needs to do it. Leona has scaled up to Eb6 many times live with ease, so I would think she is definitely comfortable with E6 & F6 and possibly G6. She herself told us she still trains classically, so she shouldn't have much problem with going really high in head voice.
Leona has two weaknesses; Low notes & Upper Belts.
Leona's low notes become inaudible under E3 still. Fingerprint was definitely nice to see her comfortable with all the F3-G3s and a breif E3 or two, along with Mountains and its E3s. Her live version of "Fingerprint" was really great too, despite being ill. So I would love to hear her lower notes on it again live when she's healthy!
Her upper belts still need more work as well. They still tend to be not as resonant as they could be and she becomes tense at times when hitting them.

Hey it's an F#5, nice high belt. That album is amazing, good to know others listen to Dawn.

E6.
Hopefully we'll get some news soon about the tour and its theme/style.
What note is this...??
Sounds like a G#6.

This was back in 2001 when she had no vocal training.
The Latin queen is better now :cool:
Her headvoice/falsetto here: http://youtu.be/vZ9wA8lnLEY?t=2m9s
Belting: http://youtu.be/wGcW5CpEuG0?t=2m4s
Her belting has improved drastically but her tone is a harsh to some
sorry to turn this into a Belinda Appreciation thread
I hope she does Lovin You it'd be perfect
