Leona Lewis is the Queen of the U.K.! Her new single, Bleeding Love, is the #1 song there.

Selling over 200,000 copies its first week, the X Factor champ's lead single off her debut album is the biggest debut by anyone this year.

Wednesday morning, Leona was a guest on Radio 1's Live Lounge and she did a cover of Snow Patrol's Run.

Exquisite. Timeless.

      Leona sucks! She's a Mariah Carey clone…which is hardly anything to be proud of.

      Plus her version of that song sucks.

      It's only #1 you fucking idiot because they did about 6 months of fucking straight promotion to sheep (in the form of the tv show X factor) who don't know anything about music so just buy what they are told to. In this case, this stupid Leona person.

    40. Robert says – reply to this


      40

      Re: in the UK – 6 months of promotion? What the hell are you talking about? She was gone for a year, and no one knew where she'd been until about two weeks before the single was released, and she performed on X-Factor.

      I live in the UK, and most people love her. You sound like you're angry that everyone disagrees with you. She's amazing, full stop. If you don't think so, clean out your ears. Leona is totally coming through biatches. Mariah will have to stick to the generic R&B because her voice can't handle anything more than that.

YOU'RE SHITTING YOUR PANTS, AS IS MARIAH CAREY WHEN SHE HEARD ABOUT LEONA RELEASING HER ALBUM IN FEB MARIAH WENT AND FUCKING DELAYED HER ALBUM BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO STUDY LEONA'S FIRST..SHE'S SHITTING HER PANTS!

      Perez -

      I think you need to listen to this again. I am fine with Leona…but not here at all. Wow…she has no soul at all. This song is really powerful, when sung by Snow Patrol and she brings none of that. When it gets powerful, she gets screechy. I really have to have second thoughts about your music taste if this version got to you.

      Yea you idiot thats why the start of this week she still sold 49K with NO xfactor performance. Celine had xfactor performance and she was number 90 in mid weeks. Next lame excuse please!

      and she is the fasted selling single of the year, on her way to having the biggest. And every1 who bought it is a sheep. of course!

    71. Uh says – reply to this


      71

      No offense, but selling there and selling here are two very different things. Brits will listen to anything. In America, we don't like clones. The fact that Celine, Mariah, and Whitney have albums coming out…please, this girl is good, but she's no where near where the aforementioned women are and poses no threat to any of them. You actually think Mariah is worried? Please. You actually thing Clive is going to let anyone be greater than Whitney in his eye…come better. It's not going to happen. Again, anyone can make it in Britain and be huge. Spice Girls reunion? They idolize and immortalize Madonna (who IS American by the way, in case you folks forgot that)…Nuff' said.

      It was Clive who made the Whitney comparison, when he signed Leona for $10 mill. So I'm pretty sure Leona is one of the brightest stars on his books. Must admit I'm mighty impressed with young Miss Lewis.

      She took a remarkable song by Snow Patrol and ruined it. Only the Brits would swallow this swill as talent.

      No Divas in Britain? Get our own style? Shirley Bassey, Dusty Springfield, Annie Lennox, David Bowie, heck that'll do for a start! Style? What compared to US? your kidding ..right?! One in every three records sold in the world has a British connection. Yes..World ..not the US.

      To all those very idiotic people who made the comment that British people do not recognise talent because they liked Leona's version of a great song that you think she killed! Remember that even the amazing original version of this song was by a British band!!

      What an amazing voice. I had never heard her before. We needed her with all the voiced over lipsynching young girls we have.

      Just because she has the talent eqivilent to someone else such as Mariah Carey and is sometimes compared to them, does make her a copycat and does not make her any less worthy of the success and praise that she is currently receiving.
      If anything, she deserves more praise because she can match it in her own way!!
      She is fantastic and this song prooves it!

      People who don't like her or her singing can have your own opinion, but don't come out with pathetic, rude and offencive comments that you'd expect from a spoilt child. Grow up!

      Anyway, a wonderful revitalisation for the song Run. !! GO LEONA !!

      Mariah Carey may have an amazing voice but her attitude stinks. She is not a nice person and the epitomy of the word "Diva". Leona not only has the vocal skills to match or better Mariah's, but she also has a lovely down to earth attitude to match, and is a very gracious and humble human being. It's about time that some British talent got the credit that it rightfully deserves !
