Bieber is pretty close to catching Louisa already on iTunes plus he's getting about 500k on Spotify everyday so she possibly won't get #1
A Leona/Louisa duet on her album would be harmless, I don't see the problem. |

The disdain directed toward Louisa is really odd, especially since she could easily be on here as a Leona fan if circumstances were a bit different. I don't see the need for a comparison. If Simon thinks Louisa's better then that's fine. There are loads of amazing singers out there and everyone's gonna have their favourite. I love Leona and have for ages but she's not my favourite artist. For me I love her voice and what she represents but I know some people who can't stand her and think Louisa's in a different league to Leona. I just think it's people expressing themselves. And there's loads of big singers out there like Jessie J, Adele, Ariana among probably a whole bunch of others I can't remember. For me, Leona stands out but for others Leona doesn't and it's somebody else.
I can see One More Sleep in the top 100 chart update, so that's good! |

It saddens me that Leona released her best album this year and it's going to remain ignored like this.

TBH, I think Leona needs some songs like Burn for her lead single to come back and slay the world!
![]() Look how it revived Ellie Goulding's career!!! That album was supposed to be flopped and coudn't top the chart. But she that's what help her and she continues to have chance to sing big songs for big movies like FSOG. Btw, hope Leona's singing the theme song for the next chapter of Avatar tho

Guys what would you do if Leona did this kind of performance of Oh Holy Night later this month?

Haha, I also found this, it's Ben Haenow's vocal run from 'Run':
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1S4rDdG3HwQ I don't know what happened there. Leona sonuds great but by god that was shocking on his side. It's actually funny how bad it was. EDIT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFVdXcIzjzA Another version of it with a similar title. |

You know she's amazing but I think I've just figured out what it is about Leona, it's the distinct timbre shifts in each register. I know lots of singing teachers teach that you should have a consistent timbre all the way through but I think that's what makes her sounds so great. When she soars into the higher notes, her voice is just electric but on her low notes she's got a sort of Tracy Chapman sound and her falsetto is Carey-esque. I think that's the main reason that she's individually so appealing.

It's what I love about her voice, but perhaps why she is so difficult to market. |

Looking foward to O Holy Night performance. Still intrigued about the cover Leona recorded. |

Louisa has been talking about Leona again! Quote:
Previous X Factor contestants have had to submit a mixtape of artists that influence their sound. On who will be on hers, the young star continued: "I love so many different artists but Leona [Lewis] is obviously a massive influence on me because I've listened to her stuff for so long. http://www.digitalspy.com/music/the-...ampaign=twdsuk"And I do think she's incredible. I'd definitely say Leona - but everyone on the show has been so successful, everyone has their own distinctive sound, so that's what I need to have." DAMN is that girl on this forum?

That girl singing Holy night sounds exactly like Mariah Carey.
Leona's voice is unique, I could recognise her voice in seconds if an uknown song of hers came on the radio suddenly. That's what makes her special I am expecting perfect vocals from Leona on Holy night ( God its time ) |

Highly doubt that Cameron is going to approach Leona again for Avatar.
He wanted I see you to be a single, I supposed he got upset that it never became one. Plus back in 2010, after Spirit and during Echo era, Leona was seen like a diva ( many were comparing her to Celine Dion ). She was fitting with a huge movie Leona has been trying to shake this diva image off her though, she's been appearing more like a cool, next-door girl since Glassheart ( and especially with I am ) I'd really love it to happen but I dont think it will |
