No one thought following her smash debut album, “Spirit”, was going to be easy, but British songbird Leona Lewis might have already topped “Bleeding Love” with her new single, the ballad “Happy”. “I honestly feel it is the most beautiful song I’ve ever been a part of,” says co-writer and producer Ryan Tedder. With its distorted drums and groaning keyboards, the track was cut immediately after Tedder and Lewis finished writing it. “The vocal was totally spontaneous,” Leona recalls. “Sometimes it’s better not to over-think things.” “Echo” is the upcoming sophomore disc.
