LEONA LEWIS!!!!

Leona has definately overtaken Mariah as best singer. She’s outstanding!

Leona is the best in France!

i am british so i have to say LEONA. shes just so wonderful, her album was number one for 7 WEEKS in england.

mariah’s all right but her ‘brilliance’ has dimmed a bit.

I do like them both. However you can pick up a Leona Lewis anywhere in the US, there are so many sound alikes over there. Even Christina Ag has a better voice than Leona. Lets see if leona is around in 18 years time still scoring number one singles and albums or will we see her being dragged out of some seedy drug den with a needle sticking out of her arm.

of course Mariah!!! :)

Leona definitely and for those who dont no who Leona is she was the winner of X Factor in 2006 and she is well better than Mariah

i agree Charlotte,
i think your right.
Leona is better,
She has a powerful voice
She sings great life, while she wa son the X factor
unlike Mariah who no way compares to Leona.

Mariah is old.
Leona is amazing and will
carry on topping the charts

I was wondering the same thing!! lol

Mariah. love her new album

Mariah. she’s amazing singer.

Mariah has a very trained voice. Her mother was an opera singer and Mariah has a voice that no can compare too. Her range is outrageous and she has never gone off key. Her whistle voice is outstanding and she learned all this from very young being trained by her mother to sing Opera. That is why she has such a wide range because of all the hard work and training when she was growing up. But she is also gifted in songwriting and she just has a God Given talent. Alot of people copy her but she definately has her own style and it cannot be duplicated. You know when she is singing and people who try to sound like her cannot even touch her voice.

leona lewis. Mariah has sang her song. Lewis is the future.

ok…so the debate is who the better singer is, right? let me just start out by saying that ms.carey has indeed changed over the decade, her style is not at all the best and the voice of course is a bit faulty at times. but recently, i was in a barnes and noble’s and actually got the chance to hear leona lewis’s album, and i liked it a bit, but wasn’t totally sold, and then i realized why: it sounded like the vision of love album i loved as a kid, with a little of “the bodyguard” thrown in. why are we having this conversation? by the fact that she does her darndest to imitate her so well, leona has already proven who the winner is. and let’s not forget, we’re talking about someone who has paid their dues, and proven what they’re capable of, not some young snot nose who listens to an album over and over again and copies it right down to the last hook. vocally, she can’t touch mariah or whitney, close but no cigar. ms.lewis will be a fine leader for the new generation of singers, but lets not forget that she didn’t light the torch.

Leona Lewis is phenomenal.. She is much better than Mariah Carey… Leona is only 23 .. maybe thats why Mariahs had a longer career ?!?!?

Team Leona =D

WHO’S THE BEST SINGER? IT’S ME, GARRY! HAHAHA JOKING, BUT IM GOOD TOO. I LIKE THEM BOTH, BUT MARIAH, BEEN AROUND FOR ELEPHANT YEARS NOW. LEONA IS NEW AND A FRESH VOICE AND HEARD HER LIVE ON X FACTOR IN THE UK. GOOGLE LEONA ON XFACTOR AND WATCH THIS GIRLS RANGE, WICKED!!!!!

MARIAH!!! Leona comes close and has a beautiful voice but Mariah’s voice is unsurpassable. Leona’s pretty but Mariah looks way better. Plus you have to take into account that Leona is alot of years younger than Mariah. But regardless, Marish still comes out on top.

mariah has proven herself through the years. Leona has a lot to work on before she can be like “mariah”.

Definately Mariah! People like Mariah come around like Hailey’s Commet; You feel em comin, bask in the glory, and sigh when they have faded. So just recognize the uniqueness that is Carey.

As of today Leona released 2 singles both went to #1. You can’t do any better than that.

Mariah, coz she can sing many types of songs: pop songs, church songs, r’n'b songs and she touches my heart. 4 me she’s a star))

i have to say Leona Lewis is the better singer. i can’t say i don’t like Mariah Carey (she is a good singer too) but like i said… Leona is my pick.

p.s. for the person (username: ME) who commented that Mariah has had the longer career so she deserves to sell more albums… i say.. career doesn’t matter. if you’re good, you’re good. If you do well then ppl will like your stuff and you will do great.
