X-Factor Winners I Love: Alexandra Burke

It's ... so ... pretty ... !

Alexandra Burke won the X-Factor a couple years back. I love her. Her voice is so damn gorgeous and powerful and emotional and (insert other flattering adjectives here). I own the CD Overcome, and I love it. You may know "The Silence". Here is the video. Yes, it's a live preformance, but the quality is really good.

Okay. That's not the song she won with, though. She won with "Hallelujah".

X-Factor Winners I Love: Leona Lewis

I'll admit it. I'm a Leona Lewis fan. Not a totally freaking, hyperventilate-at-concert or even go-to-concert type of fan, just a normal person who happens to like Leona Lewis' music.
You have to admit, the lady has a great voice. Unlike so many popular singers today, her voice is loud, potent, emotional and just right. Have you ever heard her song 'Run'? No? Go listen to it, right now - you'll get a little taste of what I mean when I say that she can actually sing.
Born in 1985 (and therefore in her middle twenties), Leona won the third series of the British talent show The X Factor. Speaking of winning stuff, she's also got three Grammys. So far, 2 albums have been produced by her, Spirit and Echo. You probably know the song 'Bleeding Love' by her, which (rightfully) reached #1 in over 30 countries.
Oh, yeah. She's that awesome.
