E-X-Q-U-I-S-I-T-E

Filed under: Anglophilia > Leona Lewis

Leona Lewis has recorded a cover of Snow Patrol's lovely Run for the re-release of her debut album and she makes a good song that much better.

The global superstar has been doing the song live on TV a bit lately, but her performance of the song on ITV's Divas 2 is a thing that MUST be seen. The best yet.

She's got a string section, a choir and she just kills it!

CLICK HERE to watch Leona's truly stunning rendition of Run.

      Whitney who?
      Mariah who?
      Christina who?



    48. 48

      @ RachelShavon… are you serious? LOL! You said she's ugly? I'm looking at your avatar, sweetie, and she's far more attractive than you. Next time atleast be able to stand on a pedastal next to someone before you diss their looks.



    49. 49

      wow, she really is not as good as perez made her out be. i was expecting at least above average but she actually sounds quite amateur. not a bad voice, but definitely not deserving of the accolades and top billing. perez is losing his touch in music, seriously. oh, and if you're gonna to a remake, at least make it dead-on, cool/different, or better.



    50. 50

      .



    51. 51


    52. 52

      Why is she re-releasing her album?



    53. 53

      OMG, that's awful. Snow Patrol rules, Leona drools.



    54. 54

      Re: Melissa is always right HAS FANS – Dude you guys should seriously get a life off of this website. Your comments have nothing to do with the stories ever, it's always this elementary schoolish banter back and forth everday all day long and it's so annoying. Better yet just find eachother on myspace and do that bullshit there.



    55. 55

      Re: LettyB Thanks All Her Fans! – Try #269 on the last Selena Gomez post. Smoke 'em!



    56. 56

      Re: rachelshavon – I could say the same thing about you except I'd be lying because you look pretty hideous actually!



    57. 57

      its nice to know PEREZ isnt holding a grudge after Leona Lewis and Britneys record label sued him. he really is a fan. and Leona Lewis is awesome, no other artist can sing like her, theyre all washed up! Mariah Carey cant sing anymore and XTina has lost everything. EVERYONE should go on youtube and watch Leona perform this very song on X-Factor last week. SHE SHOULD PERFORM THIS AT THE GRAMMYS!



    58. 58

      i think its crap.



    59. 59

      That performance was just incredible. Though, the xfactor one she did last week was more epic. Leona's definitely one of the best female vocalists right now!



    60. 60

      She has so much potential but she sings this song horribly. Why continuously go into your whiny falsetto when you have such an amazingly rich chest voice and a range that most singers would kill for? I just don't get it.

      She's amazing, Perez!!

      Re: Juicy84x – SO FUCKING WHAT



    63. 63

      Re: Juicy84x – YOU ARE JUST JEALOUS CAUSE YOU TRIED TO JOIN THE CREW AND WE REJECTED YOU ! HATER!!! IMITATOR!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!



    64. 64

      Re: Juicy84x – DUDE YOU SUCK!



    65. 65

      Re: rachelshavon – your ugly



    66. 66

      Re: Juicy84x – MORE ACIDIC OOZE. WHO NEEDS IT?



    67. 67

      Re: Juicy84x – Haha why do you care so much? It's just a website…Calm down.



    68. 68

      Re: BigB0882 – I agree. She DOES have such great potential to really blow people out of the water. She just has a trademark sound right now, and unfortunately she's making $$ off of that so she's sticking with what she knows.



    69. 69

      I like both versions of the song, But this is the first time i've thought Leona is actually quite a good singer/wailer



    70. 70

      as if she needs a choir



    71. 71

      HORRIBLE

      Snow Patrol's version is way better, she butchered the song even though she does have a strong voice.



    72. 72

      well.. her voice is definitely pretty, and i liked the strings, and i liked the choir, but when it all came together.. i still like the snow patrol version better



    73. 73

      My favorite snow patrol song is Run.
      She farted on it then cut it up into pieces and chewed it up, spit it out and flushed it down a toilet.
      STOPPIT.

    74. RDRH says – reply to this


      74

      Did she have a nose job yet? If not, she should. She annoys me and looks like a huge bitch.



    75. 75

      Leona is great but this cover is awful!!! no one can sing run like snow patrol!!!!!!!



    76. 76

      anyone who is a hter of this song is just jealous. shes a reet corker!



    77. 77

      I loved her performance. Absolutely AMAZING!!! I could listen to it all day, although I think she kind of looks like Kendra Wilkinson…



    78. 78

      Leonas very sweet, but i think she should have left this song along. Snowpatrols versions better sorry.
      Means more being sung by the guy that wrote it too



    79. 79

      boring



    80. 80

      The same old shit. Mariah's been doing it (whistles, whispery voice,belting out) for almost 20 years. Leona's been at it for only a couple and she's already annoyed me to death. Someone shut her up, please.



    81. 81

      Leona is the best! We love her!! :) )



    82. 82

      Now that is how you sing …..you dont have to do all the runs and embellishments all the time…..

      can someone please show xtina this????

      she needs to take some notes….



    83. 83

      yawns



    84. 84

      Um I like Leona Lewis, but I aint impressed and Snow Patrol original song is clearly much better



    85. 85

      I love this so much!!!!!!!



    86. 86

      Leona is the most overrated artist of the last year. She writes none of her own material and has only had success because of The X Factor and Simon Cowell. I just don't get the attraction of her. There are much better singers. She has no personality and stands there like a cardboard cut-out. She is a poor man's Mariah Carey.



    87. 87

      Mariah Carey has been officially replaced. This girl holds each note without excuses.



    88. 88

      she sounded amazing here. fantastic! i can't stop listening to it



    89. 89

      Wow!

      She sang that amazingly!

      I think that was what she sang on The X Factor a couple of weeks ago!



    90. 90

      shes beautiful and talented, stop hating jealous ones



    91. 91

      What do YOU think about music???

    92. 92

      she ruined it



    93. 93

    94. 94
