Echo

Echo  is the second album by Leona Lewis, the Bleeding Love singer. I've read reviews for this album and some of the reviews are far from flattery, but then again ... that's their opinion. In my point of view, I rather like it.

In comparison to Leona's debut album, Spirit, perhaps it's not the best produced ... but hey ... the girl is only starting. You can't expect miracles from a newbie. You've got to give Leona a chance to really explore her music, experience what is right and what is wrong.

It is a bit harsh for some to review her second album in a too negative perspective considering that majority of the songs are 'music to the ears' and does showcase her vocals terrifically.

One or two reviews mentioned the producers were relying too heavily on her vocals ... hello!! Leona has got mega amazing vocals ... Is it wrong to choose songs that highlights her vocal talents? That is  the whole point of singing, right? If you have mediocre (not strong or amazing or outstanding) you have to rely heavily on backups and instruments and technology ... like Britney does.

Leona need not all the macinery in the world for she has pure talent and her talent has brought her to where she is right now. The songs justify the true vocal prowess she has and you couldn't ask for more ... Not yet anyway.

Let her learn, explore producers and songwriters to the fullest before you fully judge her. She's only been in the music scene for less than 2 years ...

Anyhoo, Echo's  first single, Happy, is a good enough single to introduce Leona's second album. but my preference from the whole of her album are two wonderfully crafted music, I Got U and a collaboration with OneRepublic, Lost Then Found.
