  • I've watched Leona do this song hundreds of time on YT & it still gives me chills every time.

  • Why can't I stop watching this?

  • She is SO amazing!!!! If i could sing that good I dont think I'd ever stop!

  • listen 2:06. I can hear her breath. It is 100% live.

  • She is a beautiful lady inside and out, very humble.

    Also a very good Equestrian.

    And as far as lip syncing, I don't think that you've noticed the subtle changes she puts into every live performance she does.

    Enough with the lip syncing already.

  • this is 100% live and totally amazing! thats how good Leona is! and she's BRITISH!

  • magic=Leona!!!

  • I'm a expert in distinguishing the performance is live or lip-synced and I definitely clame that this is LIVE. Stop saying that she's lip-syncing, retarded.

  • With all respect to Snow Patrol, I wish this song was her's alone. It is her trademark song with no cpmarison to the original. If this the only song she ever performed, I would never forget her in my lifetime.

  • The sad thing is, she could make records for another 20 years and she'll never top this. And that's from a Snow Patrol fan...

  • my idol. 

  • Holy crap that brought tears to my eyes! Amazing.

  • Wow it sounds so amazing :O

  • she just amazing enough said, move over mariah, and celine

  • Those who book Leona Lewis must be really content with having made that decision in the first place. She can sing beautifully live, and she’s so humble. I didn’t think that those people even existed. They really get something for their money!

  • This must be her best live version of Run..

    if not this, then her Xfactor performance...

  • @agapegr x factor performance, but all of the Run performances are exact she does sing perfectly run and when i mean perfect not only Leona perfect but crystal clear perfect.

  • poo

  • Fantastic ! No X FACTOR performer will ever get near her quality. Alexsandra came closest. Just look at this year's (2011) dreadful bunch. Not an ounce of talent between all of them

  • They played this at my sister's funeral :'(.

  • I want Mariah Carey to do this cover :P

  • @NEVBB24 Mariah would not be able to sing this, she pretends to be the best singer in the world but i haven't heard her sing a song like this so difficult she would fail.

  • she's gorgeous!!

  • This song was made for Leona to sing. I like Snow Patrol but give credit where it is do, you can't slag her singing off. I mean I would understand you being mad if Cheryl Cole sang this but Leona has a beautiful voice and made the song a lot bigger.

  • READ THE MEANING OF THIS SONG AT....... Leona Lewis Run music video new script

    The interpretation I feel extracts the depth and emotion of this song and the lyrics.

  • completely utterly perfect , she got really into it too, soo much emotion and power , god what a voice , she's just amazing and soo stunning lookswise and such a lovely humble personality :) i'm amazed she doesn't realise how good she is!

  • the hairstyle doesnt suitable for he

  • leona lewis never do lip sync xD hahaha her voice is live ways better than in studio ; )

  • I'm not the biggest Leona fan but anyone who thinks this isn't live has no idea about music...it's hugely different from the original and just plain obvious that she's singing live...saying this is lip synching discredits any other opinion you on music you have!!!

  • not lip synced we can heard her breathe ! (sorry for my english i'm french ) =)

    LEONA <3

  • It's 2011 and I still get chills every time I watch her perform this live...It's just incredible!

  • somebody thought she's lip-synced because it's perfect. but for me it's live and perfect.

  • @KevinKevKev2 I don't think she's lip-syncing. I think it's totally live cause it's a bit different from the studio version and it's not perfect, but it's really FANTASTIC!

  • Actually, I watched this video and I thought it was incredible. But then when I saw comments about lip-syncing, I re-watched and actually the first half was live and I'm pretty sure the second half was lip-synced. She's actually gifted at hiding it aswell. I don't want to dampen things. I love Leona. But that second half (or the climax) was definitely lip-synced. Sorry to her massive fans. But it's true. Where's the band? Why a backing track.

  • @KevinKevKev2 It is live. We can see the band on stage behind her.

  • @KevinKevKev2 Cool story bro, needs more dragons and shit. You're a total fuckwit if you think she's lip syncing this.

  • @KevinKevKev2 she is not lip syncing, trust me many medias have used tools to see if she was lip syncing cause it sounded so perfect that nobody would believe it was live, and they came with a statement that the performance was 100 % live.

  • @KevinKevKev2 Firstly you van;t lip sing those falsetto notes and shit like she does, impossible ,secondly her toung watch it you idiot

  • One of the best live performances from her ..totps was amazing too..!

  • she does'n sing like Cheryl cole she sings like a goddess , a goddess like annie lennox

  • Thank you for sharing this!

  • 2:34 - gave me chills

  • Comment removed

  • she sings with so much passion , Good to see a real artist.

    Well done leona

  • She's definitely not lip-syncing. You're just mad because Leona slays anyone in the music industry

  • In 2008 Leona performed this at Royal Variety - AMAZING! In 2010 Cheryl Cole sang at Royal Variety - Not so amazing.

  • LEONA FANS ONLY... if you love her version more than Snow Patrol's version... read the new video script at...

    Leona Lewis Run music video new script

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SNOW PATROL FANS...... DO NOT READ THIS SCRIPT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Dude, seriously, all my little hairs are tingling.

  • This is fantastic. Lots of singers can't sing live. Leona can. :) ♥

  • i think they well spellbound ...amazing voice,amazing talent,amazing lady

  • completely agree with jeerawan. she is fantastic!

  • ==== IF YOU LOVE THIS SONG, YOU HAVE TO READ THIS SCRIPT ====

    Leona Lewis Run music video new script

  • so much power and gentleness, she is way better then rihanna and gaga, because she doesnt need BIG RED hair or get her vagina out all the time

  • @jeerawan lol well said :)

  • man she gave me chills all over, i'm speechless she is so outstanding, i don't care if those people have royal blood in their veins they should have given her a standing ovation

  • my whole body was in chills !! i love her and her voice ! she is so beautiful !

  • Beautiful lady..absolutely beautiful voice...I love you leona <3

  • this is the definition of pure talent. im speechless.

  • the best singer britian has ever seen !!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Bunch of old pricks did not even stand up for her!!!

  • She should have got a standing ovation : )

  • oh my God! amazing voice and amazing lyrics. Leona sing it and feels like she's xpressing all the emotion she has through her voice! oh Gosh, perfect

  • the expression ''Soul Singer'' is widely bandied about but few have true soul. Leona has It, Steve Marriott had it....They mean every syllable..Tears are inevitable :))

  • Beautiful. Real voice. Awesome performance. Lovely. Gorgeous she is. 

  • She's got such an amazing voice i just wish she would learn correct breathing and support techniques before she ends up ruining her voice.

  • @sk8erboi251 she is classically trained and does opera scales evry day, i think she is much more in tune with how to breath while breathing than u.

  • @numba1danman if she was classically trained she would breath using the diaphragm and would know how to place her voice which she doesn't do. Apart from the fact she has had nodules which says it all, i have seen recent videos of her and voice is not as strong as it was and that is due to poor technique. stick to your weight training and ill stick to singing.

  • @sk8erboi251 the only recent vids of here were of her tour where she clealry tried to utilise only small amount of her voice as she was saving it, if you cheke out her bleeding love performance at GAY on saturday it was one of the best shes ever done and her head voice has gone from strenghth to strength..leona is actually a multi millionaire from singing...how are u doing?

  • @numba1danman I'm fine, thanks for asking. Saving her voice for what, you don't save your voice during a tour, you give it everything as people are paying to see you. A singer should be able to sing for hours without "saving" there voice, i.e BEYONCE who has amazing technique. Your obviously a devoted fan and we aren't going to agree on this. I still think she is a good singer but she could be so much better with correct breathing. That is all was saying.

  • @sk8erboi251 i think she was utilising the popular idea from mariahs many tours that you have one day on one day off and many operah singers go many days between performances, leona was doing one every two days, and tbh beyonce doesnt hit the notes leona does and definately doesnt sustain them.

  • @numba1danman I dont want to get into comparisons it was just an example although Bey is the best and she can sustain. Check out some of her performances if you haven't. Star Spangled banner at the superbowl is a good one.

  • @sk8erboi251 beyonce can belt great, but she has little resonance in her head voice which is much harder on the vocal chords than belting, thats why leona lewis and mariah either need few days off or hold it back abit.....cool...ok.

  • @numba1danman Cool, we'll leave it at that. Im sure we'll talk again at some point.

  • @sk8erboi251 leona even changed the way she sang bleeding love for here tour, instead of using the 12 second belt which she has since done many times and now since about 2009 she also goes up an octave like you will see in her GAY bleeding love performance, so not only does she do her famous note just as well, she adds a few higher notes to it as well.

  • She rode through the woods. She was BROKEN, but she was ALIVE and knew she would get BETTER IN TIME. She knew WHATEVER IT TAKES she had to RUN and keep going and she would be HAPPY. I WILL BE free. She was BLEEDING LOVE but was BRAVE. FORGIVE ME she cried as she looked back. She whispered I GOT YOU as she disappeared into the mist. Her voice ECHOED but her SPIRIT remained ...............

  • absolutely awesome!!!!!!!

  • leona lewis looks stunning and beutiful voice.....amazing performance

  • Lovely talented girl !!!!!!!!!!

  • i heard she pre records live versions and then lip syncs to it....

  • @TheGfierce i dont think so i mean why would she... won the x factor that proves shes a good singer right...... so she doesnt need to lips

  • @TheGfierce psss are you kidding me? singers like her don't know what lip sync is.

  • exelente tema,es lo mas ,EXELENTEE.

  • Im not a HUGE fan of her, but this is such a flawless performance.

  • 22 Nazis disliked this !!!!!

  • bEst liVe peRformAncE iN tHe worLd…!

  • God I get goosebumps when she hits some of those notes...She is truly a talent!

  • She has such an amazing and beautiful voice

  • this is so amazing!

  • beautiful. thats how you sing live cheryl cole.

  • Obviously the original is better, but her voice makes it like a whole new song.

  • how can u NOT like this video

  • how the fuck does she do that.

  • really amazing and she don't need all the effects which is brilliant :)

  • i cannot believe that someone actually disliked this!

    this is a masterpiece!

  • hey voice is crystal clear and just flows through this song effortlessly, such a heavenly voice. 1 of my favorite songs!

  • ahhh I love leona

  • Simply stunning.

  • Leona lewis is (opera) mezzo-soprano As her luxurious low

    notes to high-flying falsetto, Gliding with elegant power and

    impressive control through all kinds of fluctuations and modulations

    and she is always in control of her vocal zone(limited) .

    I can't wait until her new cd drops which is in summer 2011

    Lucy(EW) : called leona lewis a pre-mariah but with a unique voice

    to offer

  • this song brings tears to my eyes its so good

  • she needs to get a new hairstylist!! but vocally, personally THEE best

  • Thumbs up to Snow Patrol for writing this song!

  • love this

  • Agree wiv me if u belive this is betta than snow patrols anyday

  • @JPJNJN

    Vocally there's no comparison. Leona has one of the best voices I've ever heard, a combination of power and delicacy.

    Even so I far prefer the brooding rock arrangement of the Snow Patrol version. IMHO in this one the piano and strings are all a little generic, and the choir at the end is way over the top. It's more ballad than anthem.

  • I love you Mariah! Sing gurl. Miss Carey.

  • Tooooo  Dieeeee Forrrr. Gorgeous stunning. OMG

  • Seriously every performance leona does live is just amazing never owt of tune <3

  • shes so cute wen she closes her eyes and goes into her own little world :) go 1 leona!!!

  • Love 3:49 -3:56 and her hand movements, looks like she is really getting into the song!

  • HERE is wat u call a TRU ARTIST, She doesnt need a big glamoured out show to be a performer JUS HER A MIC AND HER VOICE!!!!!! dats how tru PERFORMERS do it!!!, She's da gen y's whitney houston but in her own right =] keep on doin ya thin gurl:)

  • omg she is so so good! and she is not at all fake, like most singers and bands who use auto-tune. good for you leona :)

  • fuck me :O

    this was amazing.

  • she's beautiful, that's my twin jk

  • Leona lewis is a mezzo-soprano and she also practices opera when she

    get's the chance,Leona is the first British female to top the US charts for 20 years,leona is Top New Artist' by Billboard magazine in 2008,leona has over

    22 awards,Leona is x-factor queen(based on success and being a high

    favorite to simon),Both her cd's has success,her tour also has had success

    + got good reviews by tour experts,and leona is working on her third cd,and

    if things go good more success should go to leona.

  • @SISTERWANDAVIPOFEB She's not a mezzo at all. I've never met a mezzo who can sing up to an F#6 like she can, a note even many profession sopranos will never reach. She's a soprano in every sense of the word with a very good belt on her and resonant low notes.

  • @robski91

    she is a mezzo-soprano and she also practices opera when she gets the chance,Its be stated by media sites + wiki that she is a mezzo-soprano it's been highly stated that leona lewis has a mezzo-soprano range which allows her to take melodies from luxurious low notes to high-flying falsetto,gliding with elegant power and impressive control through all kinds of fluctuations and modulations. people who work with her like simon,Clive Davis's,even maria know what voice leona has.(-_-)

  • @SISTERWANDAVIPOFEB Are you just repetedly copying and pasting that from websites? Just coz Wiki says it, doesn't make it true. It's common sense. Her voice stretches way beyond that of a mezzo. If she were a mezzo, her vocal range would end at A6, perhaps extending to C6 but VERY RARELY. She regularly sings well above this range with ease. She is NOT a mezzo, it's just a widely-written mistake. And I know she practises opera, that's got nothing to do with her range...

  • @robski91

    I said media sites + wiki say's she is a mezzo-soprano ( + means plus) and

    on top of that wiki is mostly trustful as i read up on things like the planet earth and then i research it by reading books and looking at other websites to see

    what i read on wiki is true and in most cases what i read on wiki is true but anyway (pro)media websites like 411mania.com,telegraph,among other (pro)media websites has stated leona lewis success and the voice she has

    but maybe your right.-)

  • This woman can reach notes no other female artist can!! AMAZING VOICE!!

    Such a beautiful and talented lass, but I still think Bleeding Love is her best song yet!

    I loves Leona!!

  • This performance, like every other live performance by Leona, just proves that she is, based on her vocals, one of world's best female singers of ALL TIME

  • the first 1 1/2 mins was shite, im a fan, but that was bad~!!!!

  • @Joshyrascal no it wasnt , are you deaf!

  • Both versions are f- godlike.

    Also; How can this 'ruin someones fav. song' - it's not like the other version got removed because of this.

  • Love both this & the original version by Snow Patrol. 

  • strong voice and very beautiful song

    well done leona love ya <3

  • Compared to some shit ass singer's at lest leona lewis got talent in a mezzo-

    soprano way, and Lewis is also known to sing opera, stating that she practices opera scales every week(Google it) . hehe leona is one of the best in truth.

  • Awesome. Leona sings like an angel. Snow Patrol version is still awesome too though.....

  • I can hardly speak I understand....Why you can't raise your voice to say?....

  • This gives me' chills every-time I hear it. Best live Leona performance.. Keep it up

  • damn you ruin my fav song ever..... 

  • amazing voice and control plus range....thanks to Gus for sharing & to you for uploading this Gem :--)

  • Snow Patrol Should Be Proud :)

    just a little? I'm Glad She Didn't Kill The Song :)

  • Snow Patrol Should Be Proud :)

    just a little? I'm Glad She Didn't Kill The Song :)

  • I <3 Leona her voice sounds better than the record :)

  • studio quality on a live stage, how often do we see that these days?

  • Leona Lewis and Craig David should do a song together

  • She should get standing ovation, everyone in the audience should be on his feet. That was a musical masterpiece, sang so clearly and without any failure, there was no tone that would be out of melody. Absolutely BRILLIANT.

  • the entire section from 3.22 onwards just gives me chills its so good!

  • well props snow patrol for this beautiful song

  • Fucking flawless. Better than mariah carey live by 100

  • Excellent.

  • hd youtube is amazing. and why no standing ovation? those people need to get on their feet

  • @kali902000 It is un-classy to give a standing ovation at a royalty gathering.

  • @kali902000 i was just abt to write that

  • OMG she is damn good just a few more cd's / years if everything goe's good for her

    she will be even more bigger then she is now i mean in truth she is second

    to mariah carey hell even celebs,music experts and so on stated that is a fact.

  • i just love to hear her. that is whether she's talking or singing.

  • They dont cut her short at 4.21 Camilia.... thats where she finishes the song.... on other performances.... the ending is longer..... here she has decided 2 cut it short.... gud call 2..... drawn out endings of a powerfull song such as this takes away the responce from the audience...... applauding 2 early...... here she ends beautifully and simply.....

  • love how at 2:47 she really gets into the song and gives her all. She's really feeling the song and they cut her short a 4:21. lol

  • real sensation,

    

  • She is Truly Amazing! Nuff said :)

  • @ KatexKeys excuse me? but Mariah is not trying to top her previous records. As long as she is still musically inlaced that's all there is to it. Mariah makes music. She doesn't just sing. Anyways. Leona did well here. I like her vocal crakes for some reason it's like she is a natural Yodelist . A person who does yodeling .

  • Her voice heals.

  • She is amazing! I think the best part about her, other than her voice and beauty, is that she is a genuinely nice person! She's down to earth and not all diva like Mariah Carey! I don't mean that Mariah's not a good singer, I mean she's great! But I think mariah's had her fame now and personally I don't think she is as good as she use to be! No offense to any mariah's fans!

  • io adoro questa canzone....la canzone del lento sei miei 18 anni <3 bellissimaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!­!!! *.*

  • she makes it look so effortless, beautiful

  • & I only say that because everyone knows Whitney and Mariah can't sing anymore, so com'on! You can say they WERE a great singer, but now they're crap. Sorry..

  • I would say she's the next Celine Dion :)

    Leona sings amazing live just like Celine. Leona, please do a World Tour!

  • Leona Lewis is second to mariah Carey ( in-truth) but can't no body replace mariah Carey the five-octave vocal range,multi -hit song and diva of music but Leona got class,has remained down to earth,has great but unique vocal's ,Top New Artist' by Billboard magazine in 2008,the first British female to top the US charts for 20 years,her first CD did vary great (bleeding love song had worldly success )but her second CD did not do as well but in a few more years or less if things go good she be OK.

  • @SISTERWANDAVIPOFEB Mariah really does have an amazing voice, but she wastes it. Her latest songs are appalling.

  • @trutchmeister

    Yes mariah carey does have a nice voice but like you said she waste it i liked

    the 90's mariah carey and the 2005 mimi days but she still got a voice maybe

    her creativity is weak or something but i just looked up that mariah carey is working on a new CD which she ( mariah carey ) will be working with her

    old friends Jermaine Dupri, Bryan-Michael Cox and Teddy Riley and others

    the CD out in 2011 so that is good news.

  • que linda mujer, lo mejor que ha podido sacar american idol!!!

  • Heaven...

  • Simply Amazing!!!!

  • this is sooo beautiful, her voice makes u so emotional.

  • She is the best ever. She can really sing. I looove her so much.
