Leona Lewis sophomore set, “Echo,” hits stores this November 17th. “I titled my album ‘ECHO’, since an echo describes a big, organic sound. I’m in the midst of the recording process, working with incredible songwriters and producers, and my music has really evolved. It’s so exciting to create something new,” Leona said. The debut single, “Happy” was written by Ryan Tedder of the group One Republic. Tedder also produced her monster hit, “Bleeding Love”. “It’s a contradiction of song because, yes, it’s named ‘Happy,’ but the song’s kind of dark, a bit sad, somber,” she said.

The album includes production and songwriting from Justin Timberlake, Claude Kelly, Ryan Tedder, Max Martin, and Ne-Yo. “In my songs I want people to go on a journey, and (to get to) happiness, you go through a lot of pain and sadness to get there sometimes and that’s what we wanted to convey on the song,” she added.

Track Listing:

1. Happy
2. I Got You
3. Can’t Breathe
4. Brave
5. Outta My Head
6. My Hands
7. Love Letter
8. Broken
9. Naked
10. Stop Crying Your Heart Out
11. Don’t Let Me Down
12. Alive
13. Lost Then Found (featuring One Republic)

Leona Lewis Is Ready For Round 2, With “Happy”

Leona Lewis had a huge hit with her debut song ”Bleeding Love,” a soaring ballad that flew the 24-year-old to the top of the charts worldwide.

But the British pop singer says her sophomore CD ”Echo” goes a step further, and is ”full of big, emotional, dramatic songs.”

”It’s just really like big songs. The main thing is about the song and the melody,” she said of the album, to be released Nov. 17.

”I don’t have any songs on there that are just like, ‘Yeah, yeah, yeah,”’ she said in a whispery tone while bopping her head.

The first single, the gloomy-yet thumping ”Happy,” is one Lewis co-wrote with Ryan Tedder, the producer behind ”Bleeding Love.”

”It’s a contradiction of song because, yes, it’s named ‘Happy,’ but the song’s kind of dark, a bit sad, somber,” she said.

”In my songs I want people to go on a journey, and (to get to) happiness, you go through a lot of pain and sadness to get there sometimes and that’s what we wanted to convey on the song,”

”I’m just embarking on going back on the road and traveling and doing it again.”

I think “Happy” is a great song, it’s a great lead single for her. If you haven’t heard the song, or if you just want to listen to it again, click play below.

Although we’re not the biggest fans of America’s Got Talent, we did tune in to see Leona Lewis perform her latest single ‘Happy.’ Overall, her performance was kind of boring, lacking the energy and excitement we’ve come to expect from Leona. It was like watching her in a rehearsal. Hopefully, she’s just saving it all for Vh1′s Divas tonight! Nonetheless, she sounded amazing.

In case you missed it, here’s her performance from the season finale of America’s Got Talent.

Leona Lewis Is Afraid Of Her Second Album “Echo” Flopping

The British songstress gained millions of fans worldwide after her debut album Spirit topped the charts in 2007 with the help of her international hit single “Bleeding Love,” but Leona is convinced her upcoming LP Echo will “bomb” and she is working hard to afraid the sophomore jinx.

A source tells Britain’s Look Magazine: “Leona knows she’s going to have to work harder with Echo to equal, never mind better, the success of Spirit. She wouldn’t want to be a one-album wonder. She’s been heavily involved in the making of this album and there’s a detailed plan in place to make it a success.”

“Leona also knows she’s been in the US for a long time and she may have lost some of her UK fan base. There are plenty of reality TV stars who’ve been successful with their first album, but bombed with their second,” the source explained.

“The problem is that when Leona first appeared, there was no one else like her. But things are very different now. She has some serious competition and it’s preoccupying her entirely. It’s as if she can’t think of anything else.”

Seems like “leaking” your upcoming single is the new way to launch your new music when it comes to highly anticipated follow up albums.

Leona Lewis’ new single ‘Happy’ was just leaked online and the buzz is building among bloggers and fans. It’s a great song, but it doesn’t have the same power as ‘Bleeding Love.’ But with a voice like Leona’s, does that even matter?

‘Happy’ was written with Ryan Tedder who helped Leona’s rise to fame here in the states with ‘Bleeding Love.’

The song will be huge. No doubts about it.

Thoughts?
