No comparison at all.............I quite like alex as a singer. However, Leona is capable of singing anything she wants (ok opera may be a no-no!). Leona was a singer for an indie band before XF, she is quite capable of singing 'upbeat' if and when the mood demands...............when alex has won XF, and been no.1 in the singles and album charts in the US AND the UK, then you can ask if there is a comparison. In the meantime darenn, I would worry more about the likes of laura,ruth,diana and even rachel if I was you......
