  • Wow! That's the best version of this song, of course, after Whitney Houston!

    Leona does the vibrato very well at 2:07 but she can't do it as well as Whitney at 2:27.

  • @Patalhufas @19exuce 2:26-2:30 she was SHARP 

  • Ok y does everyone keep saying she is nt better mariah and Whitney why is it a competition y can't they all just be great performers... leona has nt been out for a long time but damn her voice shows that she is a amazing artist just like mariah and whitney.. give others a chance to shine. They had their time now its her time!!!

  • the best part is from 0:00 - 3:01

  • 2:13 ..2:20 and 2:26-29 PERFECT

  • GOOD.. BUT I STILL DONT GET WHINTEY TINGLES!

  • @mythang03 wtf is with you and your shit opinions. and always in capitals. just fucking shut up retard. keep your shit opinion to yourself.

  • this girl can sing her butt off....and the best thing about her is that shes humble which makes her an even more beautiful person..

  • Leona .......perfect ....can't listen enough to her wonderful voice.......thanks for the post..

  • shes so effortless.

  • SHUT UP PEOPLE SHE'S NOT DONE SINGING! STOP FKIN CHEERING IN THE MIDDLE. ><

  • STUPENDA!!!

  • Wow

  • A VOICE ...........CLOSE YOUR EYES AND JUST LISTEN, WHAT A VOICE

  • A VOICE....... MAN WHAT A VOICE...... JUST LISTEN AND CLOSE YOUR EYES

  • wrong note. at 2:26. but thats it.

    shes amazing.

  • I know we all agree she is giving it her all but it looks like she is not home almost like she is acting. She doesnt have the emotional ties the songs require. God bless her beauty and voice though.

  • @dpm86 for me that is her strength emotion etc- this is only her x factor performance- for goodness sake base it on her career- these days she is probably the best at injecting emotion i her songs- watch run and i see you on her live tour- absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!

  • is leona cracking?

  • ive said it once and ill say it again whitney and mariah have been around for years, ages and your comparing them to a girl on the x factor give leona 10 years then compare because as a fan and i went to her tour she has a even stronger voice now and an incredible stage presence and dances quite well aswell and that after like 4 years so wait and see

  • She has a beautiful voice, i give her that. But there's something missing in all her performances. It's missing that extra kick of emotion and personal undestanding of the song-the emotional tie of artist to their song. She sings this song extremely well, I'm not denying that, but it's lacking for me.

  • And i'd also add there are several different charts besides the billboards outside the US that she has topped (yes they do exist America).

  • @dleet101. As your so fond of facts. Leona won the x-factor not bgt. They are two completely different get it right if your gonna be such a smart arse

  • it seems like she mimics Whitney -_-, no offense

  • You can't even come close to comparing her to Whitney Houston as Whitney has over 30+ Top 40 hits Leona only has 2 and it is November of 2010 and she won Britians Got Talent in 2006 which gave her an advantage with all the publicity she received, Whitney who made it on her own by singing a duet with Teddy Pendergras called Hold Me, That was her only break, when Leona reaches 30+ hits then compare her to Whitney. Great Voices are a dime a dozen today and Leona is fading already in record sales.

  • @dleet101 different times! the 80's when whitney showed up and 2007 when leona won the x factor... nowadays artists who sold like a million copies are now making 300 thousand copies... So I like to call leona the new whitney, the new mariah and the new celine... ahahah

  • @SergioMgBoos She has a great voice but she hasn't had a hit the reached Billboard Top 40 since 8/08, thats over two years, sorry as I said earlier great voices come and go and unless she has a miracle hit soon she is fading away and will be gone and to compare her to Whitney, Mariah, or Celine she hasn't proven herself, were not talking about your opinion against mine I'm talking facts about artist who all have 20 or 30 Top 40 Hits Leona has 2. I love her voice but she isn't going to last.

  • @dleet101 True that record sales in general have plummeted, but that doesn't mean there are no multiplatinum artists around. There are. There are even working Diamond selling artists. It's not impossible. Getting a record deal off a tv show also helps A LOT in gaining an audience to buy the records and in marketing.

  • perfect voice but she is sooooo cold

  • She sings so effortlessly. She's a true star! Got goosebumps listening to this!! :)

  • OMG!

    She was a walking winner throughout the competition!!!!

    It's no one else mattered!

  • move over whitney time to retire

  • AHH thats what an eargasm feels like (:

  • 2:26 she gets out of tune :P

  • Chills are runninn throuu my body :o

  • what is your problem guys? does it matter if she's black, or white, or red or pink? come on! she has one of the best female voices in the world, and that's all what is important

  • @QueenRabbit I completely agree with you and it is pretty sad, that they even try to categorize her on that basis, really immature. She is a God given gift, who makes all of us pinks, greys and blues cry...:)

  • Ughh, whats the point of her race. She looks black through my eyes. No racism but look at her skin tone what white person you know thats caramel. Get real people we all know white people start claiming bi racial people when they do some interesting things. P.S. no racisms. She looks like Vanessa Williams to me.

  • HALLO , 2 all "WHITE PEOPLE"....she will always be a "BLACK GIRL"!!! SHE AINT WHITE BECAUSE HER "MOM" IS SO?? THEY WHITE FOLKS WILL ALWAYS SEE HER AS BLACK BECAUSE... SHE AINT WHITE "SIMPLE". NOW SHE HAS A GREAT VOICE THEY START SAYING "SHE'S WHITE". BUT LEONA AINT DUM OK SHE KNOWS BEST HOW IT IS TO BE BLACK!!

  • @rkey2007 Um... shes black AND white. And Im sure that if you asked her about it, she would emphasize about being both

  • DAMN!

  • I didn't used to understand why people got goosebumps when they heard people singing. Thanks for explaining that to me, Leona.

  • oh my god what a wonderfull voice. so powerfull, thats realy amazing. i like this version better than the original. and she is very beautifull

  • what happened with the last note? wasn't quite perfect. still a wonderful performance though.

  • she's the best <3

  • im not a fan of leona but i gotta admit it. she rocked this song and she deserved to win!

  • I prefer Whitney's version still but I think the judges is talking she sings better than Dolly Parton.

  • she kinda looks lyke a man!

  • เย็ดเข้ มีคนไทยมาด่าด้วย เจ๋งว่ะ

  • @cindynevia เจ๋งออก เธอคนนี้

  • i dont think she sounds all that Good. !! so i dont even know how she won. Jamie was a lot better then her. and he is a male from that. SHe keeps doing the same songs over and over. she dosent try anything different. AT least Jamie tried different songs and he smashed them all...

  • @redneckbitchable

    Shut up retard

  • @redneckbitchable she did try difrent songs she did an abba 1 and  something else

  • She has the voice and soul of an angel <3.

  • She is the only one I think who is capable to sing this song after Whitny

  • ahh she cant sing... LOL im kiddin... unbelievable!

  • OMG she's good

  • how can somone sing THAT good!?...shes amazing

  • amazing :)

  • charice is far more better. Anyway, Leona is cool!!

  • @whysohard100 charice person sounds like the elephant man

  • @skymovies007 นิสัยไม่ดีด่าคนอื่น อีหอยแหกกกกกกกกกกกกกกกกกกกกกกก­กกกกกกกกกกก

  • Beautifully sung...

  • I Will Always Love You :D

  • me encantaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa (LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL­LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL)

  • She can't sing.

  • Leona Lewis puts more heart and feeling then Whitney in legend Dolly Parton's song..With Whitney she song Dollys het from Hollywood but Leona Lewis she sings it from her heart!..Leona Lewis made Dolly happy!

  • @BLUEOHIO somehow i get the feeling that you're white. no offense to you and i think leona is amazing but no one is touching whitney. and for your personal info, leona's half black if you didn't know because for some reason i think you're saying this because you think she's white. whitney took dolly parton's song and sold more records than she did with it. amazing song by her but whitney did it more than justice. and whitney always sang from the heart, that's God given talent! 

  • Comment removed

  • no white bitch cud own that kind of voice, shes black

  • @slipknoterman you don't have to be racist. I agree usually women who are black have that capabilities of beautiful voice. You got to remember she is half white though.

  • oh most definitely ma, no racism, peace, love everybody :D

  • @slipknoterman

    She's actually Swedish and Guyanese. ; )

  • interracial! interesting

  • @thepunkponies Really :D!?

  • Note perfect!

  • she's better than the asian kid....heck she's better than whitney houston!

  • love her to bits, amazing voice, love her voice. brilliant performance as always.

  • Still gives me goosebumps<3

  • amazing!!!

  • She is totally the best!!!!!!!

  • Leona is absolutely divine. After watching a few of those awful videos of Whitney trying to croak her way through this song in her recent tour, I have to have Leona's heavenly voice to clear my ears.

  • she is soo amazing!

  • bella e brava!!!

  • she's a singing angel

  • 100000X's better than anyone in the universe

  • the most amazing British female vocalist for along long time. she has so much soul, tone and control in her sound, it is astonishing how one person can be so talented. an amazing young woman who's talent is only going to grow and grow. I can't wait!

  • It's incredible to realize how different she got when she starts singing. It seems like there are two persons inside her, living in peace. One shy, kind and lovely... and the other talent, powerful and irresistible!

    But this is what makes her so great... I love her!

  • she sings in her own way, love her.

  • stunningly beautiful and stunningly talented!

  • she is so BEAUTIFULLLLLLLL

  • Whoaaa she i so amazinq (:

    There she sinq's like a biq star (:

  • Perrrrrfecttttttttt

  • she is awsome :)))) ♥

  • i love it, specially the song, i love the way she sings in her own version,...

  • shes sounding like whitney houston..pretty much sounds like her version :)

  • How can any singer in the UK get any better than Leona?!!!

    she gives me goosebumps! (:

    She's amaaazingg!!!

    ly leona x

  • amazing :)

  • this made me get goosebumps.

  • no better singer in world music at the moment and sales show it ..

  • @530649 Mariah Carey still releasing music and has a much better voice than Leona.

    Whitney Houston who is also still releasing music and is the biggest selling female artist ever has a better voice than Leona.

  • @Jameil100 omg please dont compare whitney now to Leona cz Whitney will not sound anywhere close to leona bcz of how bad her voice is!!

  • @prb0i17 Whitney still has an amazing vocal range for her age. She has a much greater stage persona... and come on, she's the all round better artist. If she did a come back tour, it'd be like Michael Jackson's This Is Is. It would see out in minutes. If Leona did a tour, I guarantee it would not have the same impact on the world as as Whitney tour. Legends never die my friend.

  • I you really want me to find something I would have to say: 2:26. When she's going into the high note.

    But I actually rather not concentrate on mistakes, because she sang it SO SO BEAUTIFUL. I got goosebumps for the entire song..it just made me smile :)

  • Is anybody able to find a mistake with this video ? It was perfect !!

  • Not bad but I will always prefer Dolly'

    s version to everyone else.

  • Beautiful voice. It fits so perfect for this song.

  • wow perfect i was speachless

  • that.. was.. EPIC!

  • Damn, this version is kick ass. I love it.

  • She is so beautiful. Her voice is too.

  • She sings it beautifully, but I still like Dolly Parton and how she sang it especially since it was her song and original.

  • no, this is not 'better' than Whitney's... They're both amazing, and they're both individual. Why does everything has to either sound the same or be better or worse? they're both great interpretations....

  • *also, I've come across an AMAZINGGGG singer, she's gonna be a star FOR SURE!!! (ironically, the group she's in is called, "The Shures" lol) She does an INCREDIBLE rendition of Leona's "Run" and I have to say I like hers (Ashley Burns is her name) Check out Ashley's channel @ 'feeebiee'; and The Shures @ 'theshures'

    *oh yeah, and 'Bleeding Love' is top 10 all time faves for me =) thank you Leona for sharing your amazing gift with the world!

  • I actually can't believe I'm about to write this....but I think I like this better than Whitney's (and I NEVER thought I'd ever come close to that!!!) She sounds remarkably like Whitney in several parts of this song, but I think what i like better, is just her overall lighter and higher tone. She's truly amazing (but Whitney still has her beat overall in my book =D )

  • she fits that song perfectly.

  • Every time she hits that note, I get chills through out my body. As good as she was, no one will ever be better then Whitney. But, Leona is definately second best! :)

  • is her mother white and her father black?

  • Yes =)

  • This is better than Whitney

  • huh? how can you say that?

  • i like whitney's version better but this is still great!

  • What a Voice... What a Woman BEAUTIFUL

  • on the list of the best people to sing this song

    1 Whitney Houston

    2 Nick Pitera

    3 Leona Lewis

  • Oh God---she honked that last note so far out of tune my eyes crossed!!! LOL But she has a great voice!!! She was probably nervous as hell..........

  • but I bet your eyes are gorgouse crossed or otherwise -v-vv-v-v-- love from England Summer

  • 2:00- 2:43 OMG!!!

  • amazingg !

    i prefer this to whitneys version :O !

  • Wonderful voice...forever...

  • En voz, caracter, hermosura y total aspecto de hembra es una entera LEONA!!! Que dificil es pensar en una igual... yo por lo menos no encuentro. La Whitney Huston en sus mejores dias claro!!! pero de ahi nomas no veo a ninguna.

    ESta mujer es el paquete entero, completo y perfecto WOW!!!

  • que hermosa es esa dama, tiene uno ojos hermosisimos,so cuteeeeee,y la voz no puedo creer que existan personas con esa voz en el mundo, pense que solo era yo jejej

  • leona es la mejor

  • Well, I really like Leona and her voice but I have heard this song earlier and think one other girl from Germany sang it a little bit better :-)

    The name of the singer who sang it better is Sarah Kreutz

  • yeah i heard that one too and ole girl was a beast...she str8 killed this song

  • AMAZING VOICE! Charlotte!

    A GIRL WITH A POWERFUL VOICE SINGING I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!

    NEW CHANNEL , PLEASE SUBSCIBE!

  • i love Leona Lewis so much

    i look up 2 her

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • omg this just made me cry ...

    amaziiing voice

  • i thhink leona is better then whitney in my opinion .She is beautiful and talented and he girl can sing and she has got guts to sing that in the final cos that could of been make or break and it was make.

  • Psyko

  • I forgot how well she sung this.. she's amazing

  • well its judging talent and potential, i think from the time she won the x factor till now she is today in the same league as whitney. mariah and celine are. its pointless judging whos better theyre all amazing and all diferent and unique ;) imo

  • i agree whitney is from a different generation and now this generation has its whitney! brilliant

  • I finally know who leona is now.....not bad, better than Whittney in my opinion

  • lord she is amazing! I had no idea she was from this show!

  • okey she sounds EXACTLY like whitney once it reaches 2:04

  • everyone seemed to be waiting for the climax at 2:04 lol

  • she is so gorgeous and talented

  • she can sing everything :)

  • idk why but thos os my fav or hers!!! go leonA!!!!

  • She is sooo great... Her voice is great!!!

    As well with Syesha Mercado who also sang this in AI season 7... They were both great & spectacular so no reason for comparing!

  • voice of an angel. only few singers can justify whitney's songs and leona is one of the few.

  • :) agreed.

  • she has very good control on he false

  • i am absolutely mesmerized by her voice every single time i hear her! she is amazing!

  • Her voice is so so so pretty

    I love her !

    x3

  • omg u need to give it up......is not hard to see that LEONA IS AMAZING!!!!

    FUCK U ZDUZZZZNOW

  • Charice is good too, but i don't think she nows what she's singing...

  • Huh??? ARe you sick or what??? Leona is far way better than Charice... Charice is JUST a singer who doesn't know what to do but SHOUT all the notes and songs!!!

  • yeah i'm sick lol! it's just my opinion i think leona is great but i prefer charice's cover of the song......but whitney will always be the best.....

  • I agree... I couldnt understand why these people keep saying Leona is Better than Whitney!!!
