All I Can Say Is WOW!, February 23, 2008
This review is from: Moment Like This (Audio CD)
Aha, now I understand why Simon is so tough.
Simon knows exactly what he is looking for on American Idol or his European versions of AI. He wants the entire package and when he sees it, he grabs it, that's it in a nutshell. Simon wants the best and will not settle for less. He got the best when Leona Lewis came along.
Leona's voice is a voice we will be listening to for generations to come. She is one class act, classy voice, classy looks, classy dress - she's got it all, and now I will no longer get upset when Simon tells it like it is because he knows the "best" when he sees it and he knows who will make it and who won't.

Leona, X Factor winner, British version of American Idol, January 10, 2007
This review is from: Moment Like This (Audio CD)
She's a gorgeous girl, but her demeanor is just darling... she's very humble and soft spoken, but boy can she belt out a song! All three judges praised her, and Simon said that finally Britain has a girl singer as good as Whitney, Mariah or Christina., and that she is the best contestant he has ever had on any of the shows! Wow, from him that's remarkable. I prefer her voice over all of their voices, so look for LEONA. Simon said she's going to be a worldwide star & Louis agreed. I was a little disappointed that her first CD single is "A moment like this," seems like they could have come up with something more original, but I like her a lot more than Kelly Clarkson. She's very sweet and humble.

Not as good as Kelly Clarkson's original version, June 8, 2008
This review is from: Moment Like This (Audio CD)
I think Leona did a nice rendition of "Moment like this". However, I don't think anyone could match the vocal prowess, emotion and texture of voice like Kelly Clarkson did. Leona's version is mostly a copy of Kelly's (except for a couple places) and I found myself wishing for the original. On the other hand, had I never heard Kelly, I would have thought Leona's version was pretty good.
Hey, since this is an import, I paid $12.00 for this 2 song disc. Trust me, I was hoping that I would love it. I didn't. I guess you will have to judge for yourself.
