As an ex-vocalist I'd like to mention that Leona Lewis has a remarkable voice, both in the studio and live. When writing about her cover of Run I mentioned how she uses the full emotion and control that helps place her in the top 10 female vocalists of modern times. From passion early on she opens those wonderful vocal chords for a huge & powerful bridge that still sends shivers up my spine.
When music carries great emotion & passion that can be captured by the singer, that is a great achievement - whatever the genre of music.
With the new album Echo we have another great treat in store and that is already being revealed with a home-made, low-quality video of Brave that's on YouTube ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xT1UYvKpswQ ).
Even allowing for the poor quality, it is clear Leona has power and passion to burn. It is thrilling to see (photo shows Leona Lewis in her fantastic dress for the launch concert for Echo) and hear this young woman already reaching the heights few come near.
