  • love this song, beutiful:)

  • she's beautiful and talented woman..im so proud of her

  • I totally thought this was Aaliyah the first time I heard this song

  • this has got alot of views

  • omg she looks like Alicia Keys in the second picture.

  • Beautiful song!!

  • 26 march ?? it's my birthday XD !!

  • she is a great singer and she is so beautiful

  • love her she has a great voice!

  • Let me start out by saying that I LOVE LEONA!!! That said: this song is MARIAH, MARIAH, MARIAH, MARIAH, MARIAH, MARIAH, MARIAH ALL OVER!!! I'm pretty convinced that Leona stole what little was left of Mariah's voice and put it to good use. Everything Leona is doing in this song, which I love, was made possible by Mariah and VERY similar to her vocal stylings. I don't wanna say Leona is the NEW Mariah, but what I will say is: Thank you, God, for Jennifer Hudson and Leona Lewis ;-)

  • It Sounds Like "At Your Best (You Are Love)" By Aaliyah But I Like It

  • sorry, not feeling this new stuff. she gonna find it hard to top her first album

  • This was before her Album "Spirit"....

    She was like 18 when she recorded this album.....

  • i love leona

  • big tune!!!

  • lol! y is it under "white girls can sing" when leona's mixed raced, u no... half black/half white. anywho it doesn't matter what race u are, u give credit when credits due :o)

  • true but 99% of the human race r race obsessed assholes.

  • I agree. Not all white girls can sing.

  • not all black girls can sing.

    not all asian girls.

    not all HUMANS can sing.

    its not just white girls.

    pathetic.ergh.

  • gosh. You don't have to get so typical about it. I was just saying and I know not all humans can sing okay?

  • sounds like earth wind and fire with the melodys see 'Reasons' live

  • Sorry that was supposed to say *Bless. I 100% agree with mek949591

  • She is so Incredibly talented, and also so beautiful I just cant wait for her next album to come out. She was so talented at such a young age she won at 12 a singing competition from the whole of the UK. may God belss her. xx

  • I totally agree with you BornIntense

  • its nice but not very original...cant help feeling like ive heard these kinds of tunes before; mariah, aaliyah back in the day...but still leona got the potential tho. she put heart into it

  • this Leona album was recorded years before Spirit though so thats why she went in that direction

  • was it?

  • yeah she recorded this album when she was like 18.. echo is out soon anyway so who cares? hope you've checked out her new single 'happy'!

    go leona! xD

  • i have... it's really good!!! XD

  • she iss so lucky... she has the body, the beauty and the voice.. everythng a girl would want..

  • all her songs have the same background sounds

  • that's because she usually sings backup on all her songs

  • i think i sounds very christina at the begining from a christmas songs she did but also mariahish and Aaliyah

  • She sounds like leona lewis and no one else, she has a unique voice, her OWN. they all sound unquilly different, respect to all of them

  • well sry Aaliyah is wanna of my fav singer of all time but ever since she passed Leona lewis kinda surpassed her for me so that just my opinion

  • i appologize that was my rude cuzin she gets offensive over aaliyah

  • lovely song :). love it.

  • shes sounds some much like Aaliyah but better

  • only at the beggining and kinda, she sounds more like mariah, aaliyah's voice was different

  • y cudnt u juz have said she soungs like aaliyah they both hav beautifl voices? That was kinda rude but we all have diffrent opinions but next time plz try nd say i nicer Aaliyah is my fav singer and i thought think that u cud hav aproched it diffrently

  • i think you could have typed that differently :')

    plus: she didn't say anything negative.

  • SHE LUKZ GR8 N DAH PIC....NICE SONG...

  • Sounds a little bit like Aaliyah.

  • What a good song... She has

    Improved on her voice so much

    & its getting sexxier & sexxier every

    time!!

  • i think she look a bit like Javine in some pics

  • dont think so javine looks like a dog

  • yeah, you are quiek right, what a mistake, lol

  • Lmao ur funny xD

  • very romantic... in a dream like type of tone... i like it

  • in this video she looks so much like mariah carey not only the voice even the face =). go on like that!!! i love u, just a reminder.

  • wow. leona has definetly improved so much in her voice. this is definetly not as strong as bleeding love.

  • I like this song alot!!

    check out my videos and leave a comment about what u think!! : )

  • ThebestisSakura - im sorry if anyone disagrees but i have been at least browsing youtube for 2 years + i always see chain mail. i know your not the only one + it aint exacltey relevant to this video but tbh it aint true. its obviosuly not true is it. if they wanted to let everyone know they would broadcast it on the news or something wouldn't they? im not having a go but im sick of seeing chain mail on every video i happen to go on. just saying everyone. dont take offence. xx

  • it is leona.

  • lmao, its leona, its from her independant album that she created before x-factor called "Twilight"

  • this is from the album called "Best kept secret"

  • love ALL her songs and this one is so beautiful!

  • agree with u brettm16 . they're too old fashioned for her I think... LOVE LEONA though - she is my idol

  • old-fashioned my ass. its just a different style thats all. a true fan would appreciate that.

  • oh shut up kelly3456789 - I am a true fan if u must know - this song doesn't suit her. IT'S MY OPINION. idiot

  • I like how this song is called "I want to be that girl" and the album its on is called "The Best Kept Secret". Interesting song.

  • Leona is stunning- beautiful song also, good to hear something a little bit more sweet. :)

  • Lol, it's Leona.

  • This is Leona Lewis..

  • oops, i'm dumb... i saw the title.. (blush)

  • i'm sorry, but can anyone tell me the name of her new album?? she obviously has one.. but i don't know anything about it :( but recently i've listened to songs of her that aren't from Spirit.. thanks in advance :))

  • Leybrooton: Some tracks are from albums she had recorded before Spirit independently. Other tracks are bonus tracks or B Sides to singles she released, and others are tracks that she recorded but didnt quite make it onto the album. Sometimes an artist can record up to 30 tracks for an album, and the management will create an album from the strongest songs :)! So far we know her next album will be released around November 2009 as revealed by Leona herself in various interviews. Hope this helped.

  • shade1234321, thank you :) You told me things that I certainly didn't know. I just thought that 'The Best Kept Secret' is her new album... althought, to be honest, I'm not really into its songs. But thanks again for the information.

  • I want to buy her CD!!!

    :D

  • sexy song!

  • the last pic is stunning!

  • the one before the last pic i mean =]

  • i luv this song

  • I wanna be that girl - I was thinking that when I've met my boyfriend.. That's that !

  • There's so many artist's that have songs like

    this, don't compare Leona to Mariah.

  • You are right. This song could have been sung by anybody. It sounds a little bit like "Too Much" by The Spice Girls (another great song).

  • u mean mariah curry, no wonder shes a fat pig, shes probably eats allot of curry lol !!

  • haha love it

  • hahaha lol

  • I love this song soooo much. It's so mellow and classic. The picture at 3:37 is BREATHTAKING!!!

  • I love this song.Sighs..shes the best!

  • Has she got a new album coming out or summing

  • no...there's too different versions of Spirit one for the states and canada, and one for the uk they have some of the same song like bleeding love and better in time but the uk version doesn't have say forgive me while the states one doesn't have the best you never had this is a song that isn't on the US version

  • actually this song was on her album she recorded before winning the X-Factor. It was released for one day after she won because her old studio was bitter about her becoming famous. nice, ay. =]

  • omg. sh'e the best. &&& so is Mariah carey. i love her song yesterday!

  • amazing :)

  • ye i think she is amazing

  • aawhh, oh well; we should love leona for who she is, I think she's amazing who agrees!

  • I think shes gorgeous with or without curly hair

  • For Christ's sake, she's half black. The curly hair is natural! It suits her so much better than this straightened semi-curled look. Looks totally unnatural, IMHO.

    The song isn't bad. It's probably written by Mariah Carey's songwriter.

    She should go and find someone else and do some experimenting. I'd love to hear a different style now.

  • leona has natural curls...she doesn't curl her hair.

    i love this song!!

  • don't like this song...

    forgive me, whaterver it takes, angel are way better

  • shes not like you..her hair is naturally curly.

  • Please vote for Leona at the MTV Europe Music Awards. She is nominated five times:

    · Act Of 2008

    · New Act

    · Most Addictive Track

    · Album Of The Year

    · New UK & Ireland Act

    She deserves to win something, but may not unless we help her. You can vote as often as you like.

    Let's send a positive message.

  • Yes it is you idiot.

  • she's from london i think but she doesn't sing like it...thats so weird to me

  • american singers don't have accents when they sing

  • but u are right, they dont match with this video.. maybe the title is diferent, i dont know but i can write the lyrics down if u need! ;)

    PS: és portuguesa também não és? por causa do nick xD ehehe

  • Demonica, these are the CORRECT lyrics for this song: You say you wanna be in love But your just not sure enough You let your heart get in too deep You wanna play it smart with me Not fall too recklessly Kinda look before you leap Well I I think I passed this time Cuz I Got something else in mind
  • Chorus:

    When your ready for the deep end

    When you wanna walk the high wire baby

    When your ready to take a chance at finding something real

    When your looking for a gambler

    A little bit of adventure in your world

    Well I want to be that girl

    I know it's hard to bet

  • On something you ain't seen yet

    When it could be pleasure it could be pain

    But I'm looking for the kind of heart

    To risk it all from the very start

    There's nothing ventured nothing gained

    And I've had it with half hearted tries

    This time, I'm not gonna compromise

  • Chorus (2x)

    (when you're ready for the deep end)

    (when you wanna walk the high wire)

    Baby

    When you're ready to take a chance

    I wanna be that girl

    (when you're ready for the deep end)

    I wanna be that girl

    (when you wanna walk the high wire baby)

    ahhhh
