Leona Lewis - Forgive Me

It is now two years since Leona Lewis was politely asked to step on the X and take her tentative first audition steps at a TV talent show. Her spine-tingling vocal delivery and classy posture immediately separated her from the hundreds of thousands of wannabes that have assumed the same position for the last five years.

With no gimmicks necessary, within two weeks of the live show, Leona Lewis had become the new thermometer by which the temperature of all the talents that have splayed themselves in front of Simon Cowell, on both sides of the Atlantic have since been measured. She has been used adjectivally to render the TV talent show something more than first class Saturday night entertainment. She has made it important to the music business itself; to the hopes and dreams of young singers itching to get the break; to the idea of British talent operating at an international standard, period. Behind her coy smile, Leona Lewis is something very special.

Forgive Me is the latest release from the new global icon Leona Lewis. Forgive Me is a song that takes Leona bang out of a balladeering comfort zone and into the contemporary buzz of street-beats and killer hooks. Written and produced by US singer -songwriter Akon, imagine a crossover point between Whitney's I'm Your Baby, Tonight and Gwen Stefani's Sweet Escape, add Leona's remarkable vocals and you're half way there.
