Wow, watched this after all these years and after Whitney Houstons death and it is an amazing rendition Leona did all those years ago. Got to say Leona Lewis is the biggest talent to come out of any of these shows.
i know everyone is been really modest but whitney's voice cannot be matched to hudson or lewis. watch whitney's videos, her timing and pitch is untouchable. they are both great but she will always be the greatest.
What person have you known who sung week after week with some of the toughest songs n got amazing feedback from the judges. That is amazing n the audience applauded her week after week. I know I would applauding her every time she get's on stage. I even listen to her on my ipod.
I'm watching all of her videos from the X factor n she is amazing. It;s the best voice i ever heard from a young woman who is now all grown up n making some of the best songs. Way to go leona lewis. Great vocals. I was amazed when she hit that high note.
The great thing about Leona is not only does she have the talent, but you can really tell that she actually knows the meanings of every word that she is singing, acts on it, feels the emotions, sing from her heart and soul while actually telling the story to her audience. She is absolutely amazing, a true musician!
I think ever since Leona won, nobody else has compared. Every year they have her back and every year I think she puts the current competitors to shame. I don't think, anyone of the other winners or contestants have such a memorable voice.
This is one of the hardest songs to sing ever and she totally conquers it so effortlessly. I personally think this was better that Whitney's. <3 I'm so glad you won. And at the end I love how much the audience screams. She deserves it. She's the best thing that's ever come out of X
@karatekat1997 I know but all I am saying is that bottom line melanie amaroo does NOT have the ex factor that distinguish her from any other artist she's still amature and gives me the mediocre and karaokee vibe I don't think she would even last on american idol however leona lewis rose to fame the same way as her and actually has a distinct voice that seperates her from the rest...true ex factor!
Well Melanie not only lasted but Won The American XFactor Debut to become the 1st of Many Winners to come but Leona's performance of "Run" was the Highlite of the Finals to Us.
Melanie will also work with Clive Davis on her 1st Album just like Leona did..
Melanie will be huge because she's an American Winner, Leona had to work so much harder because she was from a smaller Country, The UK.
Not many UK stars have been able to Break thru in America.
@1RomanticSoul aw thanx guys ..hope her new singles and album do well over there when released...did you hear her perform Grenade in Doha ...or "Ill be there hollywood"
her voice is much stronger now..shes in LA atm with fraser t perfecting Trouble hopfully her 1st single
All these Leona haters must be tone death! Amazing singer she is! Shane Ward? Whos that?? Hes the guy that did 2 songs or something that were crap lol. If he was so brilliant he would have been snapped up by another recording company.
Does,nt make a patch on Shane ward, who really does have it all,to be a world class star.Leona lewis hasn,t got that star charisma, which is essential, she,s way too overrated.Shane is the best x factor winner ever. Shame, Simon cowell almost, ruined his career, in order to promote leonas.
