I like Leona Lewis, at least I want to like Leona Lewis. I loved
"Bleeding Love" and "Happy," the ilk, I was even tempted to be
won over by that cheesy "Avatar" tune.  She's a good singer
given boring material that fell under some legal issues for
"Collide," her newest. The video isn't helping her much.  In it,
she revels in the sun with friends, there's some leaping into
waves and she urges her lover to "crash into me." Not very
revealing.  Though what is revealed is what was probably part of
the copyright lawsuit settlement: "Collide" is now dubbed
performed by Leona Lewis and Avicii. Well, that was exciting.
Lewis' new album will be out in November.
