Free Music Notes for SpiritFree Music Review: Nothing Other Than A Spirit of Love Hit: 4 StarsI first heard Leona Lewis singing "Bleeding Love," on a sleepless night, while watching music videos on VH1. My first reaction was, "who's that?"
I popped straight up in my bed, and was excitedly drawn in to this woman, with a big familiar yet not familiar powerful singing voice. About a week later while visiting a record store, I decided to purchase her album. She is truly blessed with a glorious voice. She has a magnificant vocal range and near perfect breath control. I wish though, that the production values of the album were better. The musical accompaniment sounds too electronic, and doesn't suit her voice, a voice that has a very natural sound. I was most bothered by the electronic sound of the drums. This took my attention away from Leona's beautiful voice. Hopefully, on her next album the production values will be more natural.
As far as the content of the album goes, there are no songs that are less than nice, and her singing is wonderful on every one of them. There are three of the songs that I think best suit her voice, actually four songs, they are "Take A Bow," "Footprints in the Sand," "Here I Am," and my favorite "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face." I have never heard a cover of this Roberta Flack classic sung with such pure emotion and beauty, than Leona Lewis sings it on this album. She is a very young, fresh, and new member the commercial artist community, and I hope that as she matures, that she remains grateful for the gift which she has been given, and that she doesn't fall victim to the industry, that might try to turn her into someone who she is not. This all being said, "Spirit" is a great freshman effort that deserves to be heard by everyone
Free Music Review: Forgettable album Hit: 2 StarsHonestly, I don't see what all the fuss about Leona Lewis is. Sure she has a talented voice notwithstanding the comparisons to Mariah Carey, but her material lacks any true inspiration. "Bleeding Love" - which has been played to death by now - was the only worthwhile song on this album. The rest of the tracks were uninspired, forgettable songs.
Free Music Review: Leona Lewis CD Hit: 5 StarsThis is an excellent CD. I really love it and the more I listen to it, the more I like each song and am very happy I purchased it. I hope she comes out with another CD soon that is as good, I will certainly buy it.
Free Music Review: Way overrated for taking your $$. Hit: 2 StarsTry Shayne, the Winner of the British X Factor Winner (like the American Idol version of the U.K). Leonard voice is O.K but the sons carry no feelings...Way too overrated!
