... es gibt nichts heilsameres für

unsere Seele, als einem geliebten Menschen sein

Herz zu öffnen und eingelassen zu

werden in das Herz derer, die wir lieben... <3

[antje3015]

dieses lied erinnert mich an einem wundervollem menschen .... ich danke dir fuer alles ..

[Noraa64]

fantastically unique this woman just wonderful & and. I love them.

[mike55801]

i have no words for this wow greetings from germany

[msav1976]

Leona is far from being a global superstar. Ok, 'bleeding love' was a world wide smash and rightly so - that was a great song. 'spirit' sold well. however 'echo' was a worldwide flop and her sales in america have almost dried up.

With news of her 3rd album being delayed after the UK flop of 'colide' (a pathetic 6 weeks in the uk chart after peaking at number 4) Her record company do not have the drive to make her a success, concentrating on her recording power cover version. hardly credible!

[HillsMusic92]

@msav1976 and you are?? when youv had more success than her in your life then you can start critisising her. im not a leona lewis fan but she does have an amazing voice, your just a hater who jelous of what she is because you could never become someone like her

[msav1976]

@HillsMusic92 Where did I diss her? I was pointing out the bloomin' obvious!

I know she has an amazing vocal range but her record company have wasted her talent. Lighten up ffs!

And her success is exactly? appearing on a reality tv contest, making a product and selling it, while doing her day job of promoting her product. Now me, apart from appearing on a reality show, i tick all the other boxes and more, so I'm more than happy there and far from jealous. CONT...

[msav1976]

CONT

I wouldn't even sign a contract with Simon Cowell, Not with the way he treats his products and I wouldn't wish it on anyone else I know either.

I am far from being a "hater" This is youtube. People come here to watch videos for entertainment and we're allowed to comment on videos that have been posted.

How pathetic of you to call people "haters" for anyone that doesn't agree with your point of view or your taste in music.

[jazzyjeff019]

Perfect

[Trullaklops]

Ich bleib dabei...einfach nur schön!!!!!

[x1985robx]

How fucking amazing is this woman, she sounds goose bumps down my arms when i listen to her

[adrianamaya1912]

amazingly incredible.

good enough to sing with MJ, if he could somehow be here with us :((

[tj180388]

the host, dermot o'leary, at the end said 'after the break the drama of the result - do miss it'. lol

[mstobberup]

She is just amazing... the voice of an angel... dont think this version is as good as the original from snow patrol, but damn she is good

[rcampbell2010]

seriously amazing like. 10/10

[indiajo]

Another thumbs up from Germany.

It really pains me to admit we have nobody who could compete with her. :-) Nobody.

She truly is the Princess Di of pop music.

[omgitshardtofindanid]

@indiajo you got lena! she "did if for you just the other dayy"

[iraqiprincess7]

we love you leona much love from your canadian fans

your my first favourite artist my god that voice of hers is just amazing

[tburke644]

@iraqiprincess7 It's really great seeing Leona getting support from ALL different countries around the world e.g. Canada!!! :)

[jason0898]

Goose bumps every time x

[marivea100]

true touch of genius - such an angel too

[sorldx]

best the ever to come out of that show

[Dante3Devil]

hey what is name of the song in the intro of Leona (background)? pls resp.

[MAN2YYZ]

The UK finally has a Diva to match any US artist, truely outstanding.

Goose bumps galore!

[speshulgurlee]

i live in the US, but UK PRIDDDDE YALL! congrats to everything leona has accomplished for ur nation. shes my second favorite artist.

[FilmMusicFashionBaby]

Anyone know the music in the background when introducing leona?

[trufflepuppy]

effortless perfection xx

[TheAllanreid]

the link doesnt work it .......

[BaybeeChezy67]

It wasnt released over in America thats why btw

[TammyFastics]

omigosh!! she has an AMAZING voice :) like one of the best i have ever heard! you go girl!! xx

[PARANA8]

no tengo palabras para descrir esto wow !!!

[mrchickatees]

this is truly breathtaking, this girl has one of the best voices i have ever heard, usually these talent shows are full of untalented people with fake contrived voices , leona deserves all the plaudits and more , she has stunning vocal ability, she is looking extremely gorgeous these days too, if you dont get the shivers listening to her sing this then check your pulse cause your not alive

[MilanM85]

i agree with you she is a star xxx

[laurenjay182]

genuinely gives me shivers!!

[missholm]

i dont get why she needed xfactor?

[sometimesiask]

coz the music industry is an exceptionally hard business to get into in normal circumstances but now with illegal downloading the money is not going to the right places and as a solo performer it is even harder

[deanobrown2006]

And thank god for the X-Factor!!

Cos Leona was going to give up on music, but her mum convinced her to just audition for X-Factor and THEN quit music if she didn't get through the show!!

[xNatalie24x]

Thanku 2 everyone on this page who can recognise a truly talented singer. Alexandra is good but she really isnt even comaprable with Leona. Run is my fave song by Leona, and I have no idea why this song wasnt popular in America or no,1. Leona is one of a few people that I think is far better live than on a recording. She is amazing. Its not just her amazing voice its also the way she sings, with emotion and she has a beautiful natural sounding voice. Just everything about her is stunning.

[johnsean93]

This song wasn't as popular as it was in the UK because it wasn't promoted over here, but even without the promotion it did reach number 20 on the iTunes top 100 songs.

[Lishahhh]

does anyone know what the music is at 1:06?

[ALEX000ify]

She's by far the best singer I've ever heard! Noone will ever be as good as her! Never!

[Diamondxdudettex]

would b funny if she left him hanging.. she wiked.. alex hasn't got nuttin on leona.. in comparison leonaa is wayyyyy bettter.. she sang amazingly! =]

[TheSxycraig]

love this always gives me chills lol she brill n her new albums gunna b wicked wiv timberland ,j.t ,ne-yo,ryan tedder and jordan sparks reported to b on it

[XxXadriiannaXxX]

ummm Alex who ????

[aguinaya1]

goosebumbs! leona rules! thanks for the video avom84.

[SingingCafe]

wow...this is so beautiful..so amazing..it gives me chills...

[roden1622]

as for me Leona u the best in the entire music industry

[gchaggar75yo]

thanks for sharing this, shes so good cantbelieve it its better than snow patrols 1 n i t hhort they were good

[BaybeeChezy67]

And Alexandra has said she wants to be a baby Beyonce when we already have Beyonce and Leonas never compared herself to anyone critics have .

[jonerez]

I see your points

[BaybeeChezy67]

Firstly you have to remember Leona was the first british female from the X factor to break into the American music industry in over 22years because theres not many artists with Leonas range control or dynamics and shes has a distinctive voice whereas Ive heard many singers like Alexandra and theres many singers like Alexandra over in America just as someone stated shes no different from the Black female artists that are on American Idol or in the American Music industry

[johnsean93]

That's true, I mean Alexandra is fantastic, but we have loads of "Alexandra's" here in America. She's still great though.

[carletscat]

wow...

[PixelGirl2006]

3:10 = awesome notes!!

AMAZING PERFORMANCE!!

[ConqueringTRISTAN]

Well if those chills didnt freeze my body in place...such a beautiful song. Snow Patrol does it some candlelit justice. But this? This just stops your heart and restarts it!

[AdzPower]

THE BEST SINGER OF ALL TIME!

[PixelGirl2006]

the rapidshare link expired, please reupload! i really want to d/l it!

[firstclassbitch7]

voice of an angel

[HappyHammer1895]

Oops, "Leona" even..  (damn blown it!?)

[SLEVIN812]

Shut the FUCK UP MAN!!

If you don't like, you don't need to said like that.

[HappyHammer1895]

you make no sense? learn english then comment

[SLEVIN812]

You idiot. fuck off!

[HappyHammer1895]

My comment was a positive statement. Why are you being like this?

[HappyHammer1895]

Leonna.. call me ;)

[tantanman2852]

She's so lovely

I love her!

[cutiecarrie47]

she has such a beautiful and strong voice! and it just seems so unreal and unbelievably incrediblel! i was just speechless when i first heard it!

and you guys shud really check out her performance on the Royal Vareity Performance 2008, god, that was like the best ever!

[dudamejias]

Those who compares Leona X Alex. You just love both and don't Know share your heart with both. FREUD said.......lsls

[kezhotlips21]

this girl has so many different pitche,s in her voice its unreal a born again mariah carey but 100%better well done leona xx

[foolishduck]

she's not a born again Mariah Carey, she's not 100% better -______-

No one can replace Mariah Carey. And actually, it's not an honour to replace Mariah Carey because it's not an honour to be a copy of someone else.

She's a good singer names Leona Lewis.

[binthead]

the very last pic on the vt, leona looks stunning

[sildor3]

Leona is the best female singer ever and has the most beautiful and plesant voice I've heard..love her!

[XxLadyLivensxX]

what's the deal of you guys comparing Leona with Alex... i mean each of them have her own style and personality on stage.. they're kind of singular... they both great but i personally love Leona Lewis...:-P

[bbykayzie]

she does look gorgeous. and performs good live aswell (:

x

[alowaaaaa]

Ther r bizillion of girls like her on AI every year thats why they only let one black vocalisteveryyear latoya london syesha mercado vonzell solomon... Etc though they lack timber they had dazzling vocals and personalities and even that didnt save them

SHE IS GOOD with halleluja shes even amazing but apart from that im sorry shes just soso

And by preordered i read an interview of simon cowell before the results saying so, like id give a fuck

[luismiguel101988]

omg I think that leona is the greatest singer right now..

and alex will never be like her..Leona is Leona

Love you LEONA

[XKJABX]

This completely off topic but Avom84, thanks for including the entire content of the video in the title and info. I hate it when the title doesn't give enough info. Go you!

[XKJABX]

ooooh i got goosebumps watching this!

[mallikahd]

Wish I had her voice. She's amazing.

[bethell456]

amazing singer, so jealous lol, best person ive heard sing live

[Sara123K]

wats VT

[paradoxo88]

haha, just kiddin

[helenarocksyoursoks]

Alexandra and Leona are both amazin!!!!!!

[EdwardRobelo]

Leona is in a different league than Alexandra.

I don't even think Celine and Mariah can even touch Leona now.

[dailymotion2009]

Um.. i agree with the Alexandra comment, and Mariah but not Celine.. she hasn't lost her voice. she still has it, and still is the biggest selling female artist of all time... and the best of it: Celine is CANADIAN!! yah!!! Love Leona too she is amazing, and she will be there someday! i have faith :)

[ScccccccS]

Leona Lewis Looks Better With Her Hair Curly To Be Honest

[smuddlesticks]

alex will over step leona, and i am a leona fan. we have to consider that in the 13 wks of xfact, we've seen alex do all sorts, balleds, pop, dance, not dance, dance a bit more and in leonas two years, its only her "forgive" me single she started to actually look happy and move. at the end of the day, they are two very different artists and it makes me proud to say a) they are black females and b) they're british - go alex AND leona!

[Roenick272007]

Alex will never pass Leona Lewis simply because Alex is not in the same class as Leona and the Class Leona belongs in is with Celine Dion, Mariah Carey(in her early years), and Whitney Houston.

[hapwell]

Totaly agree!!

[smuddlesticks]

exactly. i never said alex would over step leona in terms of comparison to other divas like Mariah and Celine, i meant in terms of difference. I totally agree with you that they are both in different classes, as you said, she belongs with Whitney and the like. What i was trying to point out was alex then, belongs with the likes of beyonce. Alex is a performer, leona isn't.

[alowaaaaa]

alex a performer

Blarf dont flatter herself ...

She has no dancing skills whatsoever.. Beyonce is MILES awayfrom alex, shell never break the US or european market trust me i know unique when i see it leona is.. Alex who? haha

[raindropsneverfall]

well i guess isn't there more atention on x factor after leona she won.

[NatAttack1512]

the echo on that sound system is really annoying

[hauxs001]

she sends chills down my spine 1 word AMAZING!!!!!

[raindropsneverfall]

alexandra burke is good but i found her live performance a bit mediocre compared to leona and i think leona has more control over her voice.

[LilHuni101x]

USA PEOPLE... shes english and always will be ours :Pnerrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[koolobnoxious]

ok. just watch and see, she'll be ours... JUST KIDDING.. haha.. can't wait to see who guys bring up next, hopefully more singers like Leona.. SHE'S AMAZING!

[dailymotion2009]

haha true that.. lol I'm not from england but I've been there and have relatives there!! I'm from Canada!! In a way Canadians can say they are rooting for Leona too cause you know, Britain settled North America.. lol im a nerd

[sunshinefan]

amazing leona lewis

[leonne101]

Simply... awesome voice and awesome persona!! You're an Angel Leona.

[dingodot1]

englands very own celine dion she will rise above and achieve much more in years to come

[duchessofyou]

well done that girl !! xoxox

[xrebel4evrx]

This preformance just proves that Alexandra is no where near as good as her!!! Leona is the Best Xfactor contestant ever!!! Way betta than Alex!!!!!!!!

[blazer057]

u r right der

[elcapone2007]

wait.....it depends...

the type of themes and songs used in the 2008 season was much much more vaired, so we cant really judge to some extent..this season's was more varied...with lots of dances, soul, etc....

thus, lets judge based on success after x factor!!

and it seems alex might hav had an edge from breakin most sales in a day record!!

lets wait and see!

[xrebel4evrx]

So what!!! She got that because of the popularity of the show!!! Eoghan or Jls wud have got it 2!!!!! And she didnt beat Leonas record with 500000 copies of A Moment Like this in 30 minutes!!!!! Alex wont be as gud as Leona!!! Sorry but Leonas voice is way betta than Alexs!!!!!

[TH3N4M3SViRGO]

??? i think she will, her single is the fastest ever downloaded track. alex will be global

[alowaaaaa]

thx to the credibility leona gave to the show. Itwas preordered so any of the winners would have gotten it

ALEX FANS ARE SUCH TWATS SERIOUSLY UR MAKING US HATE THE POOR GURL

SHES NOT THAT GOOD NOW BUG OFF LEONAS VIDEO

shes proven she had the xfactor , until alex does anything good (which might never happen) id advise u to stfu coz ur just killin her potential fanbase u twat

[TH3N4M3SViRGO]

lol your funny!! look yeah i LOVE leona so no i wont "BUG OFF LEONAS VIDEOS" lol erm I kinda KNOW that she proven she had the xfactor as i am a fan and err i watched the show plus shes everywhere you look in the music bizz.

PRE-ORDERED?? A DOWNLOAD?? it was available for download the night she won @ 12am. YOU DONT PRE-ORDER A DOWNLOAD YOU FUCK LOL!!!

Alex will get far !! End off!! and could do just as good as leona!

[alowaaaaa]

Dude im telling u ive lived around the world and im accustomed to a lot of different types of music and etc. Amex is good but she is EXTREMLY COMMON over the USA , they already invade the charts everywhere, if the music industry needed a lesser byeonce wed have one..

[TH3N4M3SViRGO]

yeah... and?

im sorry mate but i aint got a clue what your point is?! read what your writting!! alex is goin far end of. just like leona, when she wont 100's of thousands of people said exactly the same about leona and look at her now! just because alex sounds diva-like doesnt mean that she wont make her own style like leona! HAHA PLEASE JUST EXCEPT IT!!

[alowaaaaa]

belive what u want Alex is Common

Leona isnt

first leona perf i saw i was shocked second, i was in w=awe, and everysingle perf afterwards i thought she was prolly the best singer of her generation

Alex is so god damn common check AI this year ther will be as i said one or 2 max black singers which are even better than her

I knw leona would make it, and i know alex wont

Simon always said from week 3 that the world was buzzin about leona

Nothing about alex, shocked on finale = all

[alowaaaaa]

News update

i just saw leona sing homeless live even better than i saw her do

She is officially the best singer ive EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE GOD

She blew mariah and witney out i cant belive it... Holly jesssssssssssssssssssus

[YoshiroKatsu]

I cant find it on Itunes

[mebogdy8813]

PERFECT PERFORMANCE!! luv it! luv LEONA

[gchaggar75yo]

how am i singing this check on my videos and comment please.

[illustriousillusions]

To the person who basically said she's crap because she doesn't write her own stuff...she does. Obviously this is a cover, but she does write songs.

This performance was stunning, it really was. She's so pure. More power to her, I say!

[luvbabygirl]

Leona is amazing..this performance was absolutely incredible! <3

[jessagurl24]

wow...

amazing...

so much na talaga si leona...

ang galing talaga,...

[CarolinaBabes]

I have the same voice like Leona, I have been told that from the best friend Sarah, Im going on X Factor next year with this song, Love her, <3 xxx

[Roenick272007]

Perhaps u should do another song so Simon doesn't think u are copying Leona Lewis' voice and song. Also, if your voice sounds like Leona's perhaps u don't do any of her songs. Do something different. Just a thought.

[msguna1]

astounding.

[cindylaw2]

this girl Leona is crap in comparison to Lisa Lavie & Angelica

You should check them out they write all their own stuff!

[Roenick272007]

I just checked out this singer named Lisa Lavie, she is pretty good and should make a name for herself. However, I prefer Leona's voice and sound because it a little more angelic and unique compare to others and Leona will rank with among the best in group that consists of Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey(of 10 years ago) and Celine Dion.

[cocoababe]

Is it not unfair to say she is crap because she does not write her own stuff? I think it is a bit of a stretch. Edith Piaf wrote next to none of her songs but she is amazing! I think you were a bit harsh with your judgement!

[sebasblack09]

i'm a BIG fan and friend of Lisa Lavie (you can see it in my profile), but PLEASE, don't insult anybody! Leona is one of the Greatest artist on earth, no doubt about it. Yes, she didn't write the songs of her debut album... what of it???? She's got LOADS of songs written by herself, not in the Spirit album though. Get to know a lil bit more about her and then Judge, meanwhile... Shut your face and say those insults in front of a mirror.
