Leona Lewis: Echo
Copy at Case Memorial Library
Contents: Happy (4:02) — I got you (3:47) — Love letter (4:02) — Can't breathe (4:15) — You don't care (4:04) — Outta my head (3:41) — Brave (3:38) — My hands (4:14) — Alive (3:30) — Don't let me down (4:36) — Fly here now (3:42) — Broken (4:04) — Lost then found (feat. OneRepublic) (4:02).
"Leona Lewis clearly hasn't heard of the sophomore slump. In fact, Echo is a more resounding success than Spirit, the British singer's platinum 2007 debut. From soul-stirring ballads to pulsating techno jams, the new CD is more varied musically and more vibrant lyrically (with Lewis cowriting 10 tunes). It all gives the diva a chance to show off her formidable vocal range. She hits the right emotional notes on cuts like the hidden track 'Stone Hearts & Hand Grenades,' a poetic declaration of commitment. The haunting highlight, though, is 'Don't Let Me Down,' which comes with a bonus assist from Justin Timberlake" (Ivory Jeff Clinton, "Music: Pop," People, 11/23/09, p. 47).
