- Could Be a Lot Better
- I had high hopes for this CD. After hearing Duffy's "Rockferry" and "Back to Black" by Amy Winehouse, and after LOVING the single "Bleeding Love", I thought this album would be in the same league with those I mentioned. Alas, not so. "Bleeding Love" is truly an exceptional track, and by that I mean the lyrics, the melody, the arrangement AND the performance. But the other tracks do not measure up to it. It's not Leona's fault, it's the material. Leona fares better on the ballads. She has a good, strong voice, and she can put across real emotion successfully. But the lighter, made-for-Top 40 (?) tracks, are rather dull to me. They're not awful, just not memorable. They remind me of Mariah's current sound, which I loathe. I believe Leona should think really hard when she chooses the material for her next album. The charts are full of lightweights already. What we need is more authenticity.

- Beautiful Album
- This is one of the better albums for 2008. The mix is right...her voice is much the same as christuna Aguilera which is beautiful for a white girl. For persons who are interested in a good r&b album you need to go get this album. So much good tracks not just bleeding love

- Amazing....
- It isn't often you find an entire album that is really really great. This one definitely is a GREAT album through and through. She has a beautiful voice, beautiful lyrics, and a beautiful "spirit" that truly shines through in her music.
