Leona eyes Coldplay collaboration

Leona Lewis has revealed that she wants to team up with Coldplay. The singer said she wants to collaborate with Chris Martin on new material after declaring that her second album will have a "rocky edge". "Leona would love to work with Coldplay and knows Chris Martin likes her voice," a source told The Sun. "She would love to sing a duet with him. If not, maybe he could write a song for her. Chris is open to all kinds of music and isn’t at all snobby about what some see as cheesy pop." Lewis's second album is expected to be released in late 2009.

I have thought that leona's music thus far has been bland, yet her voice and stage presence is outstanding.I have felt that she has quite a potential to expand.

Well personally I think they should definitely do it! I like Leonas version of the Snow Patrol song and think she can only benefit from such a collaboration with Coldplay!

keep off!!!! coldplay's colabarations have a track record of being rubbish full stop. look at lost+ or charity concert footage for the proof. leona lewis is about as dry and bland as eating powdered milk and mash together on their own

well Ms Lewis certainly has plenty to gain from such a venture; however having 'murdered' the Snow Patrol song, Coldplay have lots to lose!!!!

I'd love to hear that, Chris Martin and even his wife have proven themselves to be good song writers!

i'd like to retract my earlier comment after realising morrisons is slightly blander(than powdered milk and mash, not leona lewis)
