Leona Lewis has revealed that she recorded 'We Found Love' before Rihanna.
The X Factor winner told the Daily Star that she provided vocals for the Calvin Harris-penned hit before relinquishing the song to the Bajan singer. Lewis said: "I worked with Calvin and we recorded 'We Found Love' but he went touring with Rihanna and she ended up releasing it. "I didn't commit to it because I wanted 'Trouble' to be my first single, so I think that was another reason they went with Rihanna. "It was the same version and production but mine's better." 'We Found Love' has sold 6.5m copies worldwide and reached the number one spot in 25 countries, making it one of the most successful tracks in recent years. Lewis added: "I still have the recording but I'd never leak it. That's so unprofessional. "There are so many songs I've recorded, only to hear other people singing them. It happens all the time. It was a bit annoying to see how big a hit it was around the world but if I'd released it maybe it wouldn't have done as well." Lewis's third studio album Glassheart is released today. Last night, she performed a selection of tracks from the record as part of a promotional set at London's G-A-Y. Yeah, so unprofessional to leak it, but very professional of you so say that you recorded a 'much better' version and could release it at any time. Bit bitter? |

Not so sure. We found love is a song that needs to be sung with a simple voice. Leona's voice isn't simple.

Obviously, Leona can actually sing I don't think shes at all jealous of Rihanna tbh, She has class & can actually sing. She said you're not an artist if you can't sing what you made on the record to people on tour, shes right. Omfg you should be a comedian, the joke is so Ollllddddd now. Omfg, you're even funnier. SO original I mean like, you didn't copy that from someone around 2 posts above |

I hope you're not calling me dumb MM&I, Insulting FMs is against the rules, insulting pop stars however is not.

Well if Leona had released it then the promotion would've been horribly generic so I'm glad Rihanna got it. At least she made a good video for the song.

I didn't call you dumb. The order of the words are different than that, I'm still annoyed that mods miscalculated my infractions/break the rules & gave me a longer ban. When I wasn't even breaking the rules I just needed to PM someone for the Pub Quiz, I never had a chance to explain.

I cba nothing can be done about it now, When I went on another account to try & explain you banned it straight away. There was no way I could get my point across as I couldn't PM or do anything. The banning strategy needs changing.
