"Bleeding Love" Video Review

"Bleeding Love" is a pop ballad written by Ryan Tedder and Jesse McCartney and produced by Tedder for Leona Lewis's debut album, Spirit. The song is to be released as the album's first single (Lewis's official second single following "A Moment like This") on 22 October 2007, and as a digital download on 21 October 2007.

The first critical review of "Bleeding Love" described it as "emotionally fuelled", saying, "this track perfectly showcases Leona's impressive vocal prowess and from the moment she opens her mouth we are instantly reminded about her amazing voice, capable of heart stopping intensity and a playful light touch." Contrastingly, another critic expressed that "the inventive percussion can't stop "Bleeding Love" from sounding dated, like filler on some long-lost, late '90s Mariah Carey album. It's one of those mid-tempo numbers — too slow for the club, too fast for the foxtrot.

The music video for "Bleeding Love" was shot in a hotel in Los Angeles by director Melina. Lewis states that it is "real colourful, very funky, has lots of extras and I get to really perform." She wore a £100,000 (US$200,000) Dolce & Gabbana crystal-encrusted dress and reportedly had an entourage of 150 people on set, including five stylists flown out from the UK.

The video is set in an apartment block, featuring six storylines about couples in different stages of relationships: "The video is extremely emotional and shows everything from first love and unbridled passion to heartbreak, loss and anger."
