Leona Lewis - Spirit - Deluxe Edition

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.

Leona performed her stunning version of Run, for the first time ever on TV, on The X Factor on Saturday 15th November 2008. Run is taken from the new deluxe edition of Spirit, avaialable now, which features 3 brand new tracks and a bonus DVD. Leona recently shot a beautiful video for the track in South Africa.
