The Scarborough Open Air Theatre welcomed Leona Lewis recently, serving as the venue for her latest UK stage in aid of her latest album ‘Glassheart‘.
While there, she showcased the gem that is her voice with a moving cover of the Sia penned love song ‘Diamonds’, recorded by by the vocalist singer chart topper Rihanna for her first #1 album ‘Unapologetic’.
Watch Ms.Lewis in all her mezzo-soprano glory below…
Delightful.
Nothing’s better than when a great song is given to a good vocalist, with the range to truly ‘give life‘ to the cut.
With this in mind, we’re hoping Leona takes as much time as possible to work on ‘Heart‘s follow up to create an album that’s both classic but contemporary, and sees her take her rightful place as the UK’s Queen of Adult Contemporary.
We were going to say we hope Rihanna catches wind of this performance and takes note.
However, that would a be a waste of every one’s time, considering all the notes in the couldn’t save her voice from the whirlpool of flat notes it oft finds itself spinning in.
