i really love her voice. It's so high. But her voice is not that powerful. i want her to practice "And i am telling you" because that song needs a powerful voice and she can practice it. i know she can improve her charming voice and make it more powerful than ever. I AM NOT A HATER BUT A LIKER. Thumbs up people if you agree agree. :)
when will we see something like her in Germany? our shows are good too but our "winners" aren't that great and amazingly like Leona, Alexandra Burke, Jording Sparks, ... in Germany the "beautiful" and "cute" guys always win -.-* WHERE ARE THE STRONG AND POWERFUL GIRLS AND WOMEN???
We never heard about her here in the USA when she was all of a sudden on the news shows etc, not like we did Susan Boyle, that's why no one here knew who she was and we had to check out videos before a CD was out
I dunno why you recieved a negative 3 for. Happen to be in aggreement with bd9598 about not knowing, let alone hearing her being played on ANY FM radio; However. MTV did air a music video of her... and did view her singing backup for Lil Wayne on MTV awards either 2007 or 2008. Susan Boyle did receive more notoreity than Leona Lewis, Lewis whose considered a strong contender to be the NEXT Icon, like Mariah Carey in hitting those high notes or Octaves...
Why negative? I'm telling you how it was for us here in the USA, no one had ever heard of her and to see her on all of these shows all of a sudden and not knowing who she was, we had to look her up. That is no reflection on her as a singer!
so stupid...why do people compare this version to hudson on american idol? she had a full minute longer to do the song, so she got to do the modulation and make the song more dramatic, hudson didn't.
la verdad leona es un talento que en poco tiempo ha tenido un gran exito y espero que con su trabajo y humildad logre muchas cosas mas porque se lo merece
she has a nice voice.. but she does not provoque something.. feeling.. i dont know.. i dont like her.. SHE IS SO F AR FAR FAR AWAY FROM MARIAH OR WHITNEY.. SORRY
they may say that she's the next whitney houston.. but she doesn't have the same power and emotion in her voice like the legendary song bird does.. I think no one ever will
while i'm not a fan of her vibratto at times because it obscures her pitch, i think this performance was unbelievably well done and her tone, power, and overall emotion is better than any other cover that i've heard of this song
Her vibrato is so slow, her tone don't sound right in the beginning. Whoever told this girl that she the next Whitney was definitely lying to her. Whitney would never sound like that in the beginning.
All of you haters can say whatever you want, I think her recent success completely undermines anything you haters have to say. Her solo album has broken many records, and she is currently number #1 in American and has been number one around the entire world. Now what?
Going back to the 'no real creativity' comment, this person clearly never saw her X factor performances - Check out Summertime, Sorry seems to be the hardest word, Could it be magic, etc, etc. She made all those songs her own, chopping and changing things whilst the rest of the contestants just imitated the originals! Also bear in mind she's no seasoned professional!
I know some of you are guna think I'm sounding crazy but Beverley from the X Factor 4 was amazing at this song. Overall Leona's got a higher range and is a better singer, however Beverley had presence and more attitude which I loved
While I think Leona has an astonishing voice I will always think of this as Whintey's song. I trust that with lady's talent, she will be recording original material that will be her signature songs.
leaona has got a great voice but whitney gives the creep. leaona hasn't got something that whitney get. she try to do better but I think she sing without feelings.
Unfortunately she lacks the magic that Whitney gave to this song! No one has been able to do this song justice! It won't go down in history as the best version of all. Whitney still tops!! Give me all the negatives you want but I don't care cause you know it's true!!
dont worry adavis leonarulez is just hatin on whitney he knows exactly what ur talkin about but is in denial but i tell u one thing vonzell and leona do have some magic of their own though and i think they are both in her league their styles are all kind of different though
unfortunately, she lacks magic full stop. Even Amy Winehouse who has about 2 octave range sounds more powerful than her and it shows. She reminds me of Delta Goodrem. Beautiful but no real creativty and courage to be themselves cos they're too scared not to be liked. Give us some real attitude and you'll get real soul.
I think you are absolutely absurd. Are you and I listening to the same singer? Her voice is stunning, and she displays so much power and attitude that it makes Amy Winehouse look like a mediocre high school alto. Please.
you're not making a song your own when you sing every note the same way as Whitney. The way she saing it is Whitney's interpretation not anyone else's so if they sing it the way Whitney recorded it, they have no real creativity.
thats a pretty silly comment. she's singing a whitney houston song so of course she's trying to sound like her. anyone who is considered to be similar to Whitney should take it as a complement (at least vocally)
in my humble opinion, i think this version sounds better than the original. not saying leona is a better singer than Whitney, but this version just has a few more modern touches to it, which i prefer.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You're right. Leona is only good when she moves into belting. In her lower register she is weak, shaky and pitchy. Unfortunately she has a deluded, rabid fan following comparable to that of Regine Velasquez.
Leona is great...within the UK. Compare to American and even Australian divas and she doesn't match up.
i think u need to look up "pitchy" in the dictionary. She might need a bit more throw on her lower notes, but her tuning is perfect. Leona slips once in a blue moon.
Were you dropped on your head as a child? How are the fans deluded? they like what they hear, it's as simple as that. There's no manipulation going on, it's just a young girl singing her heart out on stage.
BEAUTIFUL!! I AM A LAKISHA FAN and I did NOT want to admit that Leona had a better performance, but after actually watching it.... I cant deny it.... she just did does it.... ROCK ON!! (Lakisha iz still my wife tho) she just dont know it yet. lol
this is a true thing that happens! its not a chain letter! its kinda scary at first but it really works!! paste this message into 3 comments and press ALT F4 and your crushes name will appear on the screen!!! its soo wierd!
Whoever said Whitney jerperdised her career is a fool. Its her personal life. Whitney is a legend. She is easily one of the best voices in the world. Aretha Franklin and all those divas, are the ones who everyone tries to be.
Leona has a beautiful voice - but thats not reason to insult Whitney.
people are comparing leona to whitney and they are 2 copletely different people. i never said whitney was crap i love her too but i love leona more. and just cause i say my opinion doesnt make me a fool
Did anyone else notice how effortlessly Leona nails another Whitney song here,live,without breaking a sweat? We're seeing a change of the guard here and the judgement of future singers will be based on how they compare to the great Leona.
I think that both are amazing singers. I dont think that either is better than the other, but I think that only Leona is good enough to do a Whitney song anf justice
If Whitney was the best she wouldnt of jeperdised her career and leona wanted to this soooo bad and she would never be on the same platform as whitney because she is a waister that doesnt love what she does. so no she is nothin like her leona is sooo much better. and that girl vonzell her performance had no emotion to it. where as leona is tellin the story. BEST PERFORMANCE OF THIS SONG BY A MILE!!!! STANDING OVATION!!!
She is absouloutly amazing she is better then whitney and mariah put together though people doughbt that but go ahead and watch whitney live and watch mariah live that cant stay in key throughout the whole song she's so beautiful and talented has the voice of an angel and i really hope she gets far i adore you.
okay dis gurl has talent n why is everyone debating about whos beta da point is dat leona has a marvellous voice n dat she won..i mean whitney houston is da original n dats dat but leona is good beyond words
lets put it her version is way way better than katherine mcphees version but hell no if you thinks its better than vonzells and by the way simon will never and i mean never kiss any american idols arse except carrie when he named her the winner in round 2 of the competition
All u haters/fakers. Wish u could b her. Leona a satr. Stop the comparison with Whitney. Leona is. Whitney the past. Leona the present n the future. Get with it!!!
how could simon saying she's good account for Whitney's and Clives own personal opinion of her? I doubt whitney would be "fooled" into thinking this girl is better than she really is. The girl has potential and the major US labels including Clive and Whitney noticed it by simply watching her vids
perfect!

Go Leona, hope the industry looks after her - she's a star

leona is good, but you should check out christina aguilera's version it's the best, she belted this song out when she was only 11 y/o.

umm.. yea, leona is good but she is no whitney. whitney is a diva and leona is more pop princess.

did whitney approve of Vonzell like she recently did to Leona?
LovleyOne 5 years ago
I bet if Simon Cowell licked Vonzell's arse as much as he did Leona's Whitney would have approve. ;)

That doesnt even make sense. lol
how could simon saying she's good account for Whitney's and Clives own personal opinion of her? I doubt whitney would be "fooled" into thinking this girl is better than she really is. The girl has potential and the major US labels including Clive and Whitney noticed it by simply watching her vids
