Spot the difference #4: Cindi's gonna be pissed

Compare, if you will, the new Leona Lewis single featuring Jennifer Hudson, "Love Is Your Colour" with thanks to our friends at My Fizzy Pop for giving us the heads-up.



This is the song which will be featured on the upcoming Sex and the City 2 soundtrack. Now take a listen to the Cyndi Lauper classic "True Colours"



Now, far be it from us to get all litigous, but surely Cyndi has the grounds for a lawsuit here? The two songs are pretty much exactly the same. There is little to no perceptible difference!

Litigation aside, this adds to the cumulative case which is building up against Leona. For Christ's sake, this had the potential to be the power ballad of the 21st century. Instead, Leona and Jennifer chuck out what is tantamount to a lazy cover version but try and skip out on paying the royalties on it by shifting some lyrics about. Leona simply cannot get away with putting out these lazy efforts at the moment. Not when it is abundantly clear that the novelty of her astounding voice is clearly wearing off with at least the British public at present.

In other news, we're going to see Leona at the o2 in two weeks. We'll obviously be reporting back and letting you know how she got on. We're hoping for something amazing which reminds us exactly why we've been such big supporters of her career from the start. Hopefully she leaves this out of the set list.
