Amazing...

Okay, this post is going to be about Leona Lewis.
Funny topic?
Wait and see.

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

It's seldom to go 'wow!!!' over someone who has been so famous in the music industry for so long.
But, look at the mountain they climbed to success, and it's actually the best part of their career.
That was by no doubt the case for Leona Lewis.
Frankly, I never liked her.
My ears were going 'stop this nonsense!' when LiteFM played her cover of 'I Will Be' averagely 4 times a day.
So why am I even talking about Leona?
I mean, all she sings are just modern junk... Right...? (Say yes)
Anyway...

If you have noticed, the song 'All By Myself' by Eric Carmen is in my playlist.
It's the live rendition, as I couldn't find the studio recorded one.
So I went to Youtube, expecting to find the recorded one, but yet again failed.
(All hail Youtube)
After searching for some time, I saw one small thumbnail of Leona Lewis singing that song in X Factor, so I decided to click it for fun.
I mean, she must've been really good to win that big reality show right?

Okay, she wasn't good.
She was uber good!
I mean...
Just take a look at this!

That changed my image of her instantly.
But why didn't her own songs make it to my list?
After a survey, she didn't really use much of her vocal capability in those songs.
Songs like 'Bleeding Love' were mostly whispers, and others were just too fast.
(Yet again gets thrown by rotten tomatoes)
Anyway, it's really encouraging to see that somebody so shy can rock the whole world.
Funny thing is, it makes me want to join these competitions too. :)
(boo)

Here's Leona singing 'Lady Marmalade', burdened by tonsillitis.
But it worked out really well anyway. :)


Cheers! ^^

P.S: Sorry for the empty promise, but I hereby promise, I am going to review restaurants in my next posts.
I beg for patience.
Thanks. :)
