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).
