Leona Lewis - I Have Nothing (then and now)

[DelightFoolVlog]

She just keeps getting better as she grows and it hasn't stopped. She was and always will be amazing.

[katestaleyx]

<3 

[iJustNani27]

Dios no me canso de escuchar este video

[Marcocucciolo91]

so so amazing!!!!!! 

[icemage94]

her high notes sounds so thick and amazing...it doesn't crack or go husky when she sings the high notes in the last chorus

[QueenofAntarctica]

I hate to say this because I am a super x1000000 Leona fan, but in this case Whitney's version is better.

[am3ri3s]

@QueenofAntarctica in THIS case, i totally agree with you, but with her addition of the high falsetto in her performance on x factor, that equals whitney i think :D

[QueenofAntarctica]

@am3ri3s Well she usually does a great job of feeling the song, but in both of these performances I don't think she puts the same kind of emotion into it as Whitney does, and I'm not even a Whitney fan, but I think Whitney has more personal meaning in the song. But the X factor version is really good, Leona is amazing; I'm just saying

[Trae332]

Omg this is in 2006? Imagine her singing this song now she would absolutely slaughter it to high heaven (In a good way lol)

[gfernandes81]

Leona grew a lot as a singer. And she keeps growing.

[highpriestess2be]

You have nothing? BULLSHIT! You have everything!

[TheSarah1213]

hahahaha...She wore that same sweater to x factor audition....must be her lucky sweater! lol..

[taska247]

@TheSarah1213 i was thinking that when i realised

[katestaleyx]

she wore that to the audition iygm x

[malehuci]

i like ..then..

[boysoul1]

Leona is a better singer than Whitney...sorry!

[driftingdrought]

@boysoul1 You're right, she is.

[am3ri3s]

i love her vocals... but.. on the funny side....... it kinda sounds like leona is trying to drag the instrumental music with her vocals..........

[exparadise1]

her high notes in the first part of the video are weak.

but,anyway,amazing leona!

[sims24everr]

She's just awesome :]

[mstrlekar]

goose buumps

[97rosie]

Leona is just great!!

[HCooperPilot]

love u leona x

[betynhagw]

Damn! The difference between then and now is unbelievable... specially because she had the time to improve herself and turn into a fantastic singer... I got shocked in the begining of the song in the now piece... it sounded so much like Whitney! O_O Yet, Leona is unique... I'm in love with her voice! (L)

[Ireennnn]

haha what happens at 4:55 ?

It's like she opens her eyes then have to laugh.. :p

But, it's so AMAZING!

[LoNeWolFy05]

How did she NOT win?! That just goes against nature!!

Leona has the best voice!!!! =)

[AlexanderCarey]

@LoNeWolFy05 Are you talking about The X-Factor? 'Cause she did won The X-Factor!

[LoNeWolFy05]

@AlexanderCarey

Sorry no, I was meaning this particular video of her coming second. It just doesn't make sense to me, she's a living icon! =D

Plus your cover of Bleeding love sounds nice. =)

[keolun]

ijust love this girl !

she is so good !!!

[schanasweet]

i sang this song infront of my whole school D:

[johnsean93]

Haha, she wore that samepink sweater-like thing to her X Factor audition.

[SugarLoveForever]

@johnsean93 maybe it's her lucky shawl-jumper-whatever? ;D

[christiantry]

just goes to show you that you're able to achieve soo much more if you believe in yourself :-] not to mention all the experience she gained before her x-factor performance.

[MySoulBelongsToMusic]

her voice is to little for this song

[EnsaLucis]

WOWOWOW WTF

[JessieK2068]

its such a good thing she didnt win this or she probab;ly wouldn't be where she is tday!!!

[singerdaveuk]

she did win

[JessieK2068]

not according to the info box thing at the top

[singerdaveuk]

oh yeh sorry i thought u meant the x factor comp yeh she was a runneer up on the other comp

[CatarinaTipper]

much better on teh X-factor show !

She lets it all out , she's just Woow , beautiful *_*

[rd101tube]

she is wearing the cardi that she wore when auditioning for the x factor haha! i love her!

[leshniche]

I can listen to her divine voice forever, no matter what she sings. At 7:23- 7:26 is my favourite moment.

[aapril88]

dark hair so dont suit her. da best decision she made was 2 go blonde. wait!!!! she wore that outfit to her 1st xfactor audition didnt she.....? loooollll. or at least the cardi and vest.....oh lord not a good look. dont ever be recorded with the same outfit twice cos it will come back 2 haunt u. loooooooooooooollllll

[kh9234]

i agree she looks so much better blonde.

the man at the begging of the video could have dressed better

[kdoubleesha]

I think the younger performance was perfect. I prefer it....she's wonderful.

[mafers23]

That was sooo AMAZING!!!

She have a perfect control of her voice, and they way she sings it's like she really feel the song

[bitchlor]

Omg!! My mouth felt open!

Ty so much for uploading this!!

I thought the micro wasn't on because it was very quite..? I mean compared to the micro on X factor, is it more quite? no?

But THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[Aricbleh]

awhhh!! everyone pls don't compare charice with leona, coz they both have their way to go, and also we love them both, they are great singers!!

[japnaiblissta]

hearing her sing this so amazing...put tears in my eyes! so beautiful hehe

[Charlottafan]

AMAZING TEEN SINGER!

"I have nothing" cover!

WATCH IT AND SUBB NOW!

on my channel

[fountezio]

ouaou sooo much improvement!!!!

i could not imagine!!

[cObUsx23]

Id like to hear Lewis's rendition of "The Prayer"

[loveutube6]

awesome even before..4:55 was weird though

[SeveralMimi]

Lol, can't get better? Oh yeah, people can!

[cObUsx23]

But its not Leona LOL!

[gingerkisses]

Of course it is, it's a young Leona, you can tell by her voice!!

[cassie969]

not that young :) it's only a year difference beetwen those 2 peformance's it's amazing how her voice has changed thank's for uploaded this i love her she has got her own style and i love it she's keep getting better and better thumbs up you go girl u deserved 2win!!!!! x x x

[cadre38]

i think she changed audio card... ;) and probably ram upgrades..i know...no need to say...im lame..

[charmedjames]

Its Leona.

[mazon111]

She improved so much! I love Leona :)

[meinajkwan]

She had so much edvident raw talent before X Factor, but her vocals are growing beautifully with time and performance. I swear this girl gets better and better everytime i hear something new from her.

[AmAndAxftr06]

She is UNBELIEVABLY AMAZING!!!!!! and she is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!! Love you Leona , you were always great!!!!!!!

[llehanu]

lol its the top half of her XF audition outfit :D

[ignoramusapt05]

shes better noww ! much moreee. but when she was still good back then :)

[jornoasis]

she is the best female singer out their whitney is and always was dreadfull live. every vid of whitney on u tube tthats live has been remasterd and mixed probably diffrent vocals added in but this is just a ameture shot and leona is stunning voice and looks

[CumOnDaBhoys]

Rubbish. Do you not have ears? Whitney Houston is about one of the only singers who rarely -if ever- lip synchs.

[jornoasis]

i never said whitney lip syncs u fat slag

[CumOnDaBhoys]

"every vid of whitney on u tube tthats live has been remasterd and mixed probably diffrent vocals added"

That implies you think she lipsynchs. Or at least that her vocals are dubbed. Again, your post is meaningless.

[jornoasis]

ure a fuckin idot.live concert dvds are all digitally remasterd and  sumtimes the vocals are taking out and recorded diffrent vocals are put in. how dose the mean i said she lip syncs never said that u gimp.

[CumOnDaBhoys]

^^ Classy stuff there!

[HiddenPassion1]

just because leona sang this song doesnt mean that she is trying to be better than whitney so calm the hell down!

[rewqrewqrewq]

how does she compare to gem tang? (if you dont know what i mean, youtube her i have nothing clip)

[leonalewismad]

she is much better now x

[kattykit9]

she really has gotten much better since then.. On the first contest she was kinda holding back at times and didn't open her throat enough to bring out that strong tones.. prolly she was scared or something. But she's the best though!!! LOVE her singing =)

[kain121]

Best rendition of this song from all the female Idols etc. She sounds like Whitney in parts. Obviously not better than Whitney, but nonetheless a great vocal. Closest to the original than anybody else.

[iiAmitx3]

@kain121 there's a girl on youtube, her name is Vanessa Cruz, i like her cover better, (of course not like whitney) but leona did an amazing job too. (:

[CumOnDaBhoys]

Her hair's really nice here.

[Rainbow1227]

Yeh buh she looks good in it

LUV YHOO LEONA !

[soapaddictive]

shes wearin the same outfit that she auditioned in lol. love her!

[jordandavis92]

She definately lets her range go with her now (in the good way) instead of holding back like she did in some parts. Still, amazing. She's my favourite artist ever. :D Love her.

[Romanest876]

goosebumps, leona AND charice are the bomb, dont argue about them they both famous now

[valpogi20]

is this really leona???

i think this girl is not leona

this performance is very different from leonas performance on the stage and also the voice....

[skytten94ll3]

yea its leona i guess! how can u think dats not her? she has aswell developed! :)

[valpogi20]

so if this is leona, at this time she's not yet discovered by X-factor?? right?

[arabdudette]

yep

[proffdesign]

definitely she is Leona, just see her motion

[Jeffard716]

Apparently, the host was referring to Charice,

David Foster newly discovered talent from the Philippines.

[proffdesign]

Very strange :) thanks a lot...

Amazing talent that shows me the first scene!

:)

[mazon111]

Leona's amazing and I'm so happy for her. Watched her on X Factor and knew she was something special xxx

[ssj04]

Charice sang it better... watch this.

watch?v=P0QlP7-dbD0

[Zariine]

i think you shud look further because you cnt sing whitney's song...she is just a whitney wannabe...she cnt do a high note to save her life...go get some singing lessons.

[laurarob12345]

Absolutly Amazing the louder the better this is heaven for my ears lol

[hellokitty1050]

cant believe shes only 16! u go girl!! shes wearin the same bolero as in her audioion lol

peace out

xx

xx

xx

[sports12pro]

i thought she was like 20 or something like that in her first song cause it was 2005 and she won x factor the next year...

[misszizou01]

Is it me or did she not sing very well at 4:55:p, no offence leona you have a great voice!

[DownWifIt]

I love her to death but whats with her hands? lol

[secretblueangel]

just wondering...why she didnt sing this for her x factor audition????

[DownWifIt]

she did sing it in xfactor :)

[secretblueangel]

i mean for her audition though, she sang over the rainbow didnt she

[Jhyzone]

i think 'Over the Rainbow' is a very significant song for her, remember, she want to sing it for her departed cousin, and the song 'Over the Rainbow' means a lot for her :) That's just what i think tho. :)

[secretblueangel]

Ohhh yeh I forgot about that, I remember now, that video of her talking about it and crying and showing pictures of her cousin. Guess thats why yeh. :)

[Ashtray88]

The acoustics are obviously much better in the x-factor hall

[mateire]

Ah I love the old clips of her, she is just one of us.. and she is not trying to be anything else.. not even today.. she remains true to herself..

[ChrisDawson92]

she's gotten so much better it's unreal (:

[oneilljus]

really gooooood

[xxxmilixxx]

She's wearing that mini cardi thing she wore on her 1st audition. bless her.

it so was not set up that she won x factor.

amazing singer

[kardolinka13]

not good

[Starx2008x]

i mean uk unsigned.

[Starx2008x]

live an unsigned is crap

[kardolinka13]

In 2005 the song was really bad....she was not good....the song was too big for her, but in factor she sung it very very good ;)

[enjr1]

it says in the clip description that this was a competition where Leona came 2nd!!??

Anybody have the video of the winner of this competition??

Id love to see it! ;)

[x2CEE]

im pretty sure she won actually,

in 2006

[casisinus]

of course, whitney is best, but this little one has a bright future, if she keeps it up!!needs good songs

[KurdishBeautyUK]

Both performances were great, but the when she was on x factor, wow, she was great. Well done and good luck!!

[xPlatn1um]

she is really beautiful, now and then.

and her voice has improved greatly.

[matthewfoong]

she wore the same thing at her audition

[deviouslydevi]

just the top.

[aku192]

she's so much better now and has more control in her voice too!

[ruthmeschah]

sometimes she really sounds like whitney:)

[joeloom10]

the first one was really good!

but the 2nd was so much better!

[Cookiewooks]

Beautiful voice, beautiful girl and from the interviews that I've seen, beautiful person. Leona deserves her success. Well done !!!

[ImBurblee]

that was great, but she is so much better now! :)

[Cookiewooks]

Constructive critisism at its best.

[ghanaianbeauty07]

she came runner up in dis, so hu won?

better been sum1 worth it

[softballnvolleyball]

wow. shes someone to look up to if you want to sing.

[LkasumiD]

she look beautiful! and amazing voice

go for it

[claraloubbz]

luv her =]

[beckyandrews9]

go leona!!! AMAZING!!

[MrLabinjo]

OMG

[deadpug]

amazing transformation!!!

[antmred]

hh

h

[intrusive87]

My woman Leona. Things happen for a reason! U didnt win this competion because you were suppose to be a millionaire and a world wide singer. Not in the backgrounds. I would love to find out who come first in this bloody competion u went to in 2005!! Pathetic people. But its all good. We have you throughout the world now.... U keep doing well! By the way. U can see how much better your voice has gotten with the help of others complimenting you and telling you how good u really really are!

[happylarry]

have you thought about the possibility of the person who came first being better than her???

[MissLKS]

and didnt she wear that same pink thing for her x factor audition??!!

[hope2xs]

yeah, you're right

i think she still have it

it's a beautiful memory

[SpunkyBlunderbus]

trust a girl to notice that. looks like she did, n she looked gorgeous too :)

[jmailze]

OMG i was just thinkin that!!

[MissLKS]

haha corse it is her!!!!

[DownWifIt]

its not her its a fake

[ghanaianbeauty07]

lol

[secretblueangel]

lol

[anewday2008]

what an improvement ! if she keeps on evolving this way, in 3 years she's better than Mariah and Celine !!!! Keep on like that Leona, you're just AMAZING !!!

[Bacardi22]

i like both

[silentdr3amz]

what an improvement

[kain121]

03:20-03:24 is weird. She sounds as though she's foreign trying to sing english at that section. She was far better at the X Factor.

[kh9234]

pause at 4:52 lol

[KellyPattison]

Why?

[kh9234]

she makes a really funny face but you have to pause just as it turns to 4:52.

[tootalooo55]

i loved her but i the beginning what was she doing with her arms

[csimarghelgenberger]

she's really good, has more of a childlike angelic voice on this clip. But what can i say she is still excelent however the x factor made her 1000 times better. someone said on the clip of this song when leona performed it on the x factor that whitney was better. well whitney houston is one of the best songers of all time, as is mariah carey and leona has a mixture of the two, which its self is a gift and a half, also leona has the looks, the stage presense ans the personality to go with it all.

[ines256]

she sings with passion, and that is beautiful.

[Ambassador262]

very very very evry beautiful!!!!

[moysesnyc]

she's almost walking out the door O_o

[kh9234]

she improves so much its sounds so diffrent it just proves if you really try you can always improve.

[lauraITT]

WOW - Thats all I hav to say !

[achres]

Her singin improved, more awesome during x-factor competition/... Keep it up

[carnellsbabygurl1]

WOW THIS IS AWESOME

[KayleyBabeeBabbe]

What A difference. She can only improve more. What a song !!

[weri8806]

Her voice improve so much!She's amazing!

[xxxkristina]

......... she's so good, it sounds PRE recorded as when she sung this. it sounds SO perfect. damn, i'm jealous. LOL

[arabdudette]

ok im so sad lol but is that the same cardigan she wore to the x factor audition ? lol hu cares if it is lol we all hav clothes 4 years haha best singer in the world!x

[blu151]

i think it is yes. i love leona she is so down to earth and in her own words "a jeans and t-shirt girl" xx

[erdfrresdf]

truly gifted..leona was destined to be the true superstar that she is..whitney, mariah and now leona...voices like these only come along every 10 years..long live leona..oh and stay off the drugs..x

[brooklynboi07]

great voice but dat thing she do wit her hand is kinda wierd

[blu151]

why is it weird? mariah carey does the same thing. it helps her vocals

[brooklynboi07]

true lov ya leona

[riachu]

The main difference between the first clip and X-Factor is that she grew in CONFIDENCE in time and as the shows progressed.

I reckon "I have nothing" and "Summertime" are the songs she's sung the best, that showcases her unique talent.

[TomKaulitzBabyxxx]

SHE IS THE BEST ♥♥♥

[bridd239]

she did good before as well...but she keeps on letting her mike down....its better polished in x factor....the Best!!
