Lucie Jones X Factor Live Final 1 Footprints in the Sand Leona Lewis

[JessieJSWE]

AMAZING. She do look like Kristen Stewart, Kristen and Lucie are both the hottest girls I've ever seen :O

[draggan01]

Not much for comparison - lucie has way too limited upper range for this song. She even dropped from the melody few times - very nervous or poorly prepared. Still, she has beatifull and warm voice color.

[katiebob53]

Dont try to do Leona, it wont happen.

[lilly5775]

it nice

[katiebob53]

i just listened to Leona sing this, is every one tone deaf, there is no comparison, Leona sang this way better, but then again lucie was following cheryl cole who cannot sing at all.

[Do1phinDreamer]

I think she sounded beautiful! Maybe not PERFECT at the end, but seriously? NOT EVERYONE ON THE RADIO IS PERFECT. IF YOU LOOK FOR MISTAKES YOU'LL FIND THEM! And imagine how nerve-wracking it must've been! And THEN being compared to Leona Lewis! She did amazingly!

[mamifuwa]

her voice let her down it was too big for her and very pitchy

[josephasikhiahannah1]

What the hell is Louis talking about I do agree that Lucie Jones is VERY good but Leona was much better singing this song.

[PakiGirlHI]

wtf is louis saying. 

[namitokiwa]

It seems like this girl need more pratice to sing this song. Even though her voice .... good. But Simon was right, Lucie can't reach that high note like Leona Lewis did.

[ehiiiii]

No one can sing like leona lewis

[supermkz]

Lucie starts off better than Leona and Leona drags her ass through hell and back in the ending

[oualid112]

normaly in this kind of show we don't compare singers we jugde the voice and the way she sing, if it's about comparing so just don't watch because she did a good job

[daniel00919]

she look like kristen stewart!

[sonnenscheinchen98]

not soo good :) i dont like it

[Chipoid86]

Footprints In The Sand belongs to Leona Lewis, no-one can match her sheer vocal brilliance and emotion in this song,

[benmatthews1993]

Well I think she did a dam good version!

[mysticblue265boi]

Definitely agree with Simon. Love Leona's version better so much more.

[gwingzeroheero]

@faithfulmuzic I think her mentor chose it, but I agree. It should all her weaknesses.

[gwingzeroheero]

I think this song should be treated like a Whitney song...untouchable unless you can do better than the original. If you're not better than you will look mediocre.

[alooandrice]

Lucies is good. Leona is amazing. You can't compare them both.

[rovers9000]

ovilys not as gd as leona who issss beatuiful voice tho

[getitherereloaded]

Shes preety good but simon is right she cant hit the high notes like Leona....

[katiebob53]

well having someone who also cannot sing doesnt help, cheryl cannot sing and this was awful compared to leona lewis.

[MsFairy90]

Simon is right, Leona hits the very high notes. She's got a beautiful voice though but if you choose to sing a song where u get chills ON the high notes then u should be able to sing it. I totally agree with Simon on that cuz when I heard the song I was waiting for her to get that high note and bring me to tears like Leona does but she didn't. I'm not saying she's not good but maybe that was not her song at all. This song is al about huge notes and she didn't reach them.

[katiebob53]

and then Leona came on the show and sang, and she was WOW, leona is leona and no one will ever have her voice,

[dudypony]

Not better or worse then Leona's, just VERY different! Love it thoughh! :)

[benporter1995paris]

This song was too big for Lucy

[Follovvth3dream]

i listened to leona and then this, this sounds like a cat being dragged down a alley compared to leonas lol

[XBubblegumchewerX]

looks like bella from twilight... <3

[artifexmediawa]

She sounds great, but I noticed especially at the start, Lucy needs to breath a little more and carry the notes like Leona. Maybe it's her singing style and thus normal, but that's just my personal opinion. I would listen to her music.

[XErinMcBX]

who was it who won again?

[123skins1231]

@XErinMcBX

joe mcelderry won series 6 of the x factor :)

[kelvinpyaeko]

that's why i love simon's comments. he is always honest. to be honest, this girl version is just an ok one! her voice is mediocre at its best. her falsettos are off during the transition! lewis must be retarded to say that anyway. when was this and did she win? then, i'd feel dumb cause what she does is nothing more than a cheap karaoke version!

[tinuola3435]

you good, girl..but honestly first time i hear this song by sing Leona i can feel it in everyword ..

[RaaLuKuTzzA]

You're amazing!!!I'm your fan nr.1!!!LOVE YOU<3...and your voice:*:*:*

[SOJ94]

Yeah, of course she has a great voice. However I think Leonas version is much better. Only one other person can reach that level of Leona and that is Sarah Engels from Germany. She was at a competition there and left it with the second place. She also performed Footprints in the sand and I think it was great. But Lucie is quite good too. She had to be longer in the competion I think.

[StevenILoveYou1]

Ich fand Sarahs Version am besten.

[Hyakkimaru86]

Ja die Rangfolge dieses Lieds ist so: Am besten singt es Leona, dann Sarah, dann Lucie.

[joshpheonix]

What the hell is louis talking about she was not better than leona so he should shut up!

Leona will always be better than anyone of those contestants on this show another reason why no one will ever even compare to Leona is because

Xfactor is going down hill very quickly.

[SiSLoVe09]

Es ist besser als von Sarah (DSDS) !!!

[Hyakkimaru86]

@SiSLoVe09 Naja besser Als Sarah Engels ist sie jetzt nicht. Bei den hohen Tönen hat Sarah viel mehr Power in der Stimme und geht viel mehr unter die Haut. Lucie hat es ladylike gesungen, aber insgesamt ist Sarah besser.

[TheBloom546]

Louis you bastard Leona can sing those high notes easily Lucie cant but still is was a good performance but not as great as Leona's and that is a straight up fact right there

[calvin999999999]

Simon is absolutely right, she does have a ceiling. Even in the last bit when she belted an Eb5, it was heavily mixed and weak.

[tpong777]

How about appreciating both artists instead of putting them against each other? I liked both version of the song, just like I liked Whitney Houston AND Leona Lewis' versions of I Will Always Love You. I think Lucie has an amazing voice and great personality to go with it.

[sens8ionalsarah]

lucie's verison of the song was good but obviously leona's version of the song is the best!!!!

[xoiheartleonaxo]

I like the old X Factor Stage!... : )

[RosyPola]

non mi è piaciuta x niente!!!

[janicejay100]

pretty girl, very feminine and talented

[olgamya10]

this girl sang great and dispite the fact I disagree with Simon, he is the smartest ;)

[olgamya10]

ok, let's be serios, people, it's not like Leona is Mariah Carey or somthing...:)

[TheSupershooter]

@olgamya10 exactly she isnt mariah. leona is leona

[purple133194]

Leona Lewis sould just sing her song by herself this girl sucked

[DulceTinaUckermann]

OMG

shes horrible :SS

leona the best <3 4 ever

she can't beat leona

[unetotaleincognito12]

what a plain voice

[theofficialmengli]

this is leona her song <3

[xxiiROCK]

She sucked... She cant hit the notes like Leona can. She doesnt even compare to Leona.

[purrdyboi11]

hahaha simon simon simon, gotta hate him or love him! HATE lol,,,

[olgamya10]

@purrdyboi11 - good point about Simon :) - even if he exaggerates with Leona's talent, he is the most believable member of jury. i really apreciate him!

[yoshihu411]

she can sing the high notes and all but she doesn't have the emotion and feelings that leona puts in her songs

[JPJNJN]

I agree wiv simon, goes 2 show leona lewis is unbeatable xx

[ilovemileycyrusxx1]

@JPJNJN shut up lucie is the best

[145naruto145]

simon hates all sing songs of Leona! lol xD

[laughingqueen78]

Lucie was always gna be compared with the Leona version, it wouldnt have been that bad if she couldve hit those notes

Lucie still has a beautiful voice

but i cant agree with Louis that she was better than Leona on the first show, Leona could hit those notes and the fact that Lucie couldnt hit those notes meant that she sounded inconsistent with her voice...

Leonas AMAZING i dont know what Louis was talking about

[kobe84]

i happen to agree with simon on this one. she's good, but leona's much better.

[ben4jerrys]

I didn't mine Lucie, though it is just fact that her voice just didn't have the vocal range/power that Leona has. But a good attempt!

[ilovemileycyrusxx1]

and u should listen u fucking idiots louis said lucie is a much better singer when leona was on the show lucie is the best

[Rawrierawrr]

@ilovemileycyrusxx1 Lol, even if Leona doesn't dance, she delivers with her singing. Leona is amazing, she's the new whitney not this chick, lucie sucks.

[ilovemileycyrusxx1]

REALLY GOOD MUCH BETTER THAN LEONA

[Battleboerre]

That girl is pretty! : O

[CamPattz]

she can't get high notes well

[anexe89]

Nothing compared to Leona, the girl got a good voice but still gotta agreed with Simon haha "louis you werent on the same show as me"

[hezara]

she can sing, but her voice is nothing special. not even compareable to leonas skills

[wallyboy17]

She's not even half good as Leona ... Louie must be deaf or something

[JessBlum19]

that was horrrrrrible!

Leona sings this so much better,

this girl sucks omggg

i sing this so much better then this chick holy shit

[ilovemileycyrusxx1]

@JessBlum19 YOU SHOULD SHUT U FUCKING MOUTH SHE IS THE BEST SINGER AND SHE SHOULD OF WON INSTEAD OF JOE

[JessBlum19]

@ilovemileycyrusxx1 ahah you must be deaf.

this is horrible :/ I almost barfed

I can sing this 1 million times better than this chick ;)

[ilovemileycyrusxx1]

@JessBlum19 u u fucking ugly bitch lucie is sexy got a good voice and i would go out with her any day

[JessBlum19]

@ilovemileycyrusxx1 LOL for one I'm not ugly and two, her singing has nothing to do with her looks, I said she was a horrible singer and I'm glad she didn't win, she sucks, if you listen to Leona's then hers, there is no comparison, Leona is clearlybetter and you need to get your ears checked ;) Cause you clearly have something wrong with you :)

[ilovemileycyrusxx1]

@JessBlum19 yh but lucie is better looking and should of won lucie dances and sings reallly well leona has a good voice but she just stands there lucie is the next whitney houston

[JessBlum19]

@ilovemileycyrusxx1 ahah whatever I'm not going to argue with you,

she isnt a good singer, never seen her dance so can't judge that,

[ilovemileycyrusxx1]

@JessBlum19 well when she sang how will i know she moved around she is fit if u dont like her then fuck of the page

[JessBlum19]

@ilovemileycyrusxx1 The comment bow is meant to voice youre opinion so shut the fuck up :)

[ilovemileycyrusxx1]

@JessBlum19 well dont listen anymore u have said your opinion now fuck of

[MrRaccoon92]

louie is idiot!!! Leona much better!!!

[Noifen1990]

I Think This Video Proves That Leona Lewis Has Such A Unigue Voice. Lucie Sang Whitney Houston's Rendition Of 'I Will Always Love You' In Her Audition And She Was Great But When It Came To This, She Pushed Herself But Still Came Nowhere Near Leona's Standards. She's Got A Great Voice Though

[sss09]

simon was true...hitting the notes wasn't this girl's capability...

[McGavinprincess]

She has a nice voice but its all nasally. She sounds like an eighth grader attempting to imitate Leona Lewis.

[20cFilmWannabe]

@McGavinprincess y are u talkin about urself leona lewis is shit 

[imsothebestuno]

it just shows u how god dam gud leona lewis voice actuallyt is when you here some1 else trying 2 sing 1 of her songs!!! leona lewis has the best voice in the world now its as simple as that!!!!

[loopylucia]

IMO this was.... dull, but I'm used to Leona. Simon was right there =)

[noprettycool]

agree with simon theres no one like leona

[starmaverick]

nobody will ever sing the song as well as Leona did. But Lucie did make it sound like her own song. can't believe people voted for Jedward singing a crap song that doesn't need talent to a brilliant singer singing about how 'she's happy about who she is'

[nwt1234]

wow that was rly out of tune

[misscammo]

i really like her voice, she makes the song song not too hard to sing.. she kidda make it her own.. but if you hear leona lewis version..boy! you wouldnt dare try to sing it =)

[dragonblade117]

LOL Louie must be smoking. I thought he made some sense when he was judging Leona, but he must be on something else if he's gonna say that this girl was better than Leona back when Leona started. Leona was AMAZING from start to finish.

[tsroxiecock4u]

think shes not a good singer. she dont have any x-factor in her voice.shes just beautiful.

[WASP021]

what the fuck are you lot on about. This is pure class an miles better than Leona sings this song live!! Im borderline addicted to this... leona i hear once and skip and forget. 1:37 stunning sound

[dragonblade117]

@WASP021 You're joking, right? This girl is good, but she lacks the power and emotion that Leona puts into every one of her songs. She's not even close to Leona, please. If you hear Leona once and forget, that's sucks for you, cause I can listen to Leona over and over again and still get chills from her breathtaking skill. I'm willing to bet the only reason you prefer Lucie is cause she's prettier, and even then that's a matter of opinion, cause Leona's got class, elegance, and style.

[WASP021]

@dragonblade117 Nope sorry, not joking at all. I like Lucie's voice a lot more.

[ULLIOP]

i love lucie and i love leona too but they are good in different ways and they should stick to their own styles

[sweetyminky1983]

She got a good voice but i can't get any feeling from her song.

it's good but not great.

[awingwin]

I feel bad for Lucie here, it's supposed to be about her, but all the judges talk was about leona....good singing though....

[josh231771]

Good attempt, but what was Louis on about, lucie is very good but she is NOWHERE near as good as Leona Lewis.

Simon is right.

[qitino]

suena como un perrito chillando jejeje.....leona es mejor.....leona its so much better

[kharitaskevin]

This gal was the best gal in the competition..Simon senced something and had eliminated her early enough...,saving his big boys,,..!! TOO BAD

[DanceQueenE]

leona ist besser...

[ayeshahaf]

lollllll i luvvvv her so much i wanted her to win lucie cum nxt yur please i want u to win dnt giv up!!!!!!

[heidilee1129]

she's not better than leona

but still really gd (-;

[kingTNAlover]

its a really nice song but she didnt do it and hit the real notes like leona lewis I really like her though

[janicesceart]

the ending part of the song uses leona's full vocal range obiviously she wont be able to hit those big notes......

[18scene]

Her voice is ok, obvi not as good as Leona, but really good attempt and such a hard song!! I congratulate her!!

[mgossipgirl09]

she is amazing she shouldnt have left..:(

[syen219]

btw I think simon is right.

[syen219]

great performance. But still completely not better than leona. not at all

[alexiel1991]

FUCK louie,hes not a good judge as simon!i hope she doesnt win, stacey so much better.and leona's th best!

[alexiel1991]

ya lar ...that old man say she better then leona ......she dreaming if she was as good as leona ....the world will explode she cant hit any high notes at all.....such a noob

[jphs4]

Great voice, beautiful voice, but natural. I do not agree with Louis when he said that Lucie sang better than the first week of Leona Lewis because it is not true! The former Leona high notes easily, Lucie still can not. May not be a new Leona but surely that is a potential winner in this program.

Go Lucie ;D

Leona , always <3

[paulburling1]

I completly agree with Louis because Leona sang an average song while Luice gave it ago. But I still like Leona

[domloveslaura]

I dont like her at all...not very good and very boring

[enterthischannel]

she looks like Megan Fox a little..xD

[mattybobs94]

lol i dunno bout that but shes fit xD

[adelebabe16]

i think she did a good job, yeah its not a perfect vocal but she did her own version of this song, and i think she was very brave to do so.

and with the whitney song, she had no choice she had to sing it for the second show, and why shouldnt she sing them proudly, she did an amazing job in auditions and has continued to do so. GO LUCIE (L)

[sherwin76502]

she has a very beautiful head tone. her voice is gorgeous and sweet. she may not have the power and range that leona has but she's a very good singer. so yeah, i have to agree with simon.

[xFYCNxPHOENIX]

im welsh and im prode of u girl ur going to win

[pat225zh]

this is her version she isnt as good as leona, leona has a powerful voice she did welll to sing it

[jjsworld]

that's the point. If her voice isn't good enough to sing these powerful songs she shouldn't. She'll never be a Leona or Whitney so she shouldn't attempt these songs. She's a cute girl with a decent voice. Nothing spectacular about it whatsoever. If she tried out on the American shows, no one would even care about her.

[robfromdublin]

RUBBISH......didnt even hit the high notes!!

[SarahTheMusicFan]

amazing!

[DoraPattinson]

This is not good! o_O

Hello, that wasen't good at all

[dennisHxC]

Not good?! Damn fix your ears xD

Go Lucie, you're my fav to win this ;)

[Neoomegakupo]

Lucie, you were my favorite since the audition, and I hope you win it.

[NhiNguyen041198]

You gotta win lucie i know you will

[laurac12321]

Woah!! That was good. You made me cry, and i don't cry at song...Lucy FTW (For the win)

[thespermdonor]

I'm in love. Well and truly.
