Considering she ‘graduated’ from The X Factor almost 2 years ago, it’s hard to believe that Forgive Me is only Leona’s fourth single.
Interestingly, this is her first up-tempo single to be released from the Spirit album. Written by Akon (and Claude Kelly and Giorgio Tuinfort), it’s a breath of fresh air. After a slew of ballads, a regular pop song will show us if Leona can break out of the diva stereotype.

Leona Lewis is due to release her newest single, titled ‘Forgive Me’, on October the 27th.
In this video we can see Leona actually dancing and not just just sliding up and down a wall, so that’s a defnite improvment! I like the funky upbeat track, and it’s nice to see Leona looking happy in a music video.
So what do you think of Ms Lewis’ latest efforts? Leave your comments below.
This could be the dictionary definition of ‘awesome’, Leona Lewis joining Jimmy Page onstage at the Olympics for a barn-storming rendition of Whole Lotta Love.
It looks like Jimmy’s got tired of the short hair he’s been sporting for the last few years. Is it worth reminding you that we’re among the biggest Led Zeppelin fans on the planet, so just watching Jimmy strut his stuff onstage brings on an attack of the goosebumps!
In what Idolator described as an Aguilera-like performance, Leona Lewis did an awesome performance of the song. OK, it wasn’t quite Robert-Plant-squeezing-lemons quality, but it cements Lewis’s position as a class act. And doesn’t she look hot?
Maybe it’s time to start some rumours about Lewis taking Plant’s place for a reformation of Led Zeppelin? Perhaps we’ll get that world tour after all…
Although the best bit by far was Beckham launching a ball into the audience and knocking over some Chinese audience member!
Miss Leona Lewis should be celebrating in a big way today as Bleeding Love has hit the top of the US pop chart. According to the BBC, this makes her the first British female in over 20 years to do so.
I think a moment’s silence is called for. [Insert silence here]
We’ve watched Leona Lewis since she hit the big time in that TV talent competition. It doesn’t seem fair to even mention the name, because Leona has easily (and quickly) transcended her reality TV beginnings.
So let’s stop talking about that and focus on her new single, Better In Time.
If you’ve ever wondered what Leona Lewis‘ Bleeding Love would sound like sung by James Blunt, then check out this video. The band is called Jamie Scott And The Town. They’re filmed doing an impromptu version of Bleeding Love in what we like to call ‘the acoustic style’.
It’s nice to hear a different take on a popular song, though in some respects it becomes a bit ‘everyballad’. Until the end that is, when they start doing the ‘bum-bum-bums’ and lose it to a fit of the giggles!

Bleeding Love is the single everyone’s talking about this week, as Leona Lewis releases her first ‘proper’ single since winning X Factor 2006.
When we first heard the song about a month ago, it was admittedly hard to like. The style is very cutting edge R&B with stark, distorted drums and a simple organ accompanying the tune for most of the song.
If you’re a follower of Unreality TV (and I hope you are!), you’ll know we were rooting for Leona to win this year’s X Factor. We’re both very pleased to see Leona’s first single release, a cover of a Kelly Clarkson song (which she also sung at the American Idol final).
