[@Ernie1978]

They should release this duet as a song, I'm not kidding...this is brilliant. The best of all the crooner sessions bit I've seen. Leona and Gary are superb!

[@TonyColson]

Totally agree!! Beautiful!!!!!

[@suzannejane1035]

Yes a 'live' album, I'd buy it.

[@angeladallimore8079]

Yes so beautiful this is the best crooner by far

[@angeladallimore8079]

Would love to see more with Leona and Gary magnificent 😍

[@t333rbo]

Great version, best duet I've seen/heard in a while

[@stephanieback705]

Wow, gorgeous. Leona has one of the best voices ever. I wish George Michael was still around for one of these 🥲

[@suedunne2765]

Omg yes...poor George ... George singing 'somebody to love 'one of my favourites.....love take that since their first hit ...

[@nickhaas9839]

George fell out with gary.. probably due to Gary giving a music week interview where he said George was a four chord musician ...so George responded .... hate it. Gary Barlow doesn't have any talent. I listened to that shit about him, someone discovered in a Northern Working Mens Club, being the new George Michael. Just because he was fat and we both have inflatable cheeks does not mean we are working in the same area. I resent it when people make out my contribution to the early '80's was influencing future boy bands." What are you like?

[@suedunne2765]

@@nickhaas9839 oh ok didn't know all that...well George was in a league of his own with songwriting...had my walls covered from skirting board to ceiling with wham....😁even better when he went solo

[@nickhaas9839]

It was in q magazine but then George apologised on a capital fm interview with dr fox.

[@mqb5151]

:-( George Michael

[@googalsalot]

I can't believe how absolutely beautiful their voices sound together, they complement each other perfectly. Totally stunning.

[@ea4935]

Great design in front of ur name on here. It makes me cry with the sounds reflex ting my ears

[@5Heliotrope]

That version could easily become a number 1 hit

[@MrMonroman]

Yes Leona is brilliant,but massive credit to Gary who sings this perfectly in addition to creating all these moments.

[@claudebylion9932]

Leona is in a class of her own, thank you Gary for this.

[@cashoutsteve2495]

I cosign every word you say. Perfectly said!!!

The way he sings the word "mind" in the first line is absolute perfection. Gorgeous from both of them

OMG ♥️ why won't they release this as a single?! It's absolutely amazing. Their voices sync so well.

Leona has the most beautiful voice in the world.

[@elvispresley1085]

Easily pleased

[@martynissitt2693]

This wonderful lady should be on tv and in the charts, one of the finest female vocalists in the world...make a duet gaz and let’s get her back where she belongs

[@Richardssong18]

Agreed garry you have to help her shes amazing and worked so hard to get to where she is but needed to be recognised more.

[@claudebylion9932]

I watched her in concert on TV, she is inconceivable perfection.

[@mikekaraoke]

Well she has been, thought this was common knowledge-very confused!

LEONA the only contestant they ever found with real x-factor.

[@janshaw4636]

Just brilliant. Leona Lewis hasn't lost her magical voice. Gary is brilliant too. X

[@carolloveskiwis]

You just gave me Leona and Gary bumps. Beautiful. Thank you Barry Manilow for this timeless masterpiece.

Leona one of the most beautiful voices in the world .

[@roncatton7101]

Gary/Leona.. you should make that a new single, brilliant!

[@sweetiepie1372]

Beautiful. Love Leona's voice and she controlled it to perfection when you think how powerful that voice is. Thank you.

[@Trisblues]

2 voices that genuinely compliment each other, more please!

[@saranoahmed]

Leona’s voice is just heaven. Oh my god.

[@thepymes]

Leona famously sang this during the X-Factor finals. She looked and sounded beautiful then as she does now!! Talent and class do not age!

[@catwoman1149]

Guess she'll keep this good looking🤩. She just has good genes and lives a happy and healthy life.

[@BobbyManford]

I’ll never forget when they sang A Million Love Songs together on X factor. Leona Lewis is beautiful inside and out. And that voice , wow. Best voice in the industry by far

[@chantom334]

I would buy the duet version and play it non stop if they released a cd The existing version is not very replaying-friendly

[@marymiller9593]

So good to see Leona again. She’s the stand out star for me from those X factor/BGT shows. I gave up watching them when Lucie Jones was voted off while she still had a long way to go in the show. She’s very successful since then in the West End. Can’t wait to get back to the theatres 🎭

[@lisajhay4387]

I went to see Leona in concert,,,, she was just unbelievable. I swear I spent half the time in tears! So amazing her voice!!!!

[@chadfaulkner6137]

Very true. Same with Ella Henderson and Laura White.

[@markashby1631]

I’d forgotten just how good Leona’s voice is. Just gorgeous.

[@cashoutsteve2495]

This duet was terrific and I will always miss LEONA LEWIS in the US and never will stop BLEEDING LOVE for her!!!

[@MetaVIRTUAL]

Gary's upgraded his equipment for these duet's 🤣 audio and mix is so much better

[@leek1002]

Omg...such beauty... I wonder when Barry wrote 'spirits move me'... I wonder if he was singing about the Holy Spirit...

[@garybarlow6943]

Hello, how are you doing today? Nice meeting you here.

[@amyvargas7684]

Gary looks like he's holed up in a polar den and Leona looks like she could step out her door onto the beach. 😎

[@arronjames1992]

That's because she lives in LA ☀️🏖😂

[@catwoman1149]

Welcome to cold UK 🆚 hot California 🤣🤣

[@hayleybrook9600]

Just beautiful 💓

[@chadfaulkner6137]

This reminds me of when Barry Mannilow said "thank you for making my song sound so beautiful" ❤️❤️

[@ed.7389]

There is something special in Leona voice..

[@rebuildmanchuria]

This song come back to life.

[@RobSnowden]

This is staggeringly good. Great to see Leona again.

[@christianhansen8689]

This is exactly what a song named "Goosebumps" would sound like.

[@sabrinabassan6076]

Magic ! So full of memories of the "beautiful world tour" . Your voices together are stunning !

[@lucimarpires2077]

Lindos😍😍😍

[@Laura_Consonants]

My thoughts exaclty. The Beautiful World Tour was a masterpiece!

[@kevinrestall4467]

WOW. They sound so good as a duet. Leonna has such power, passion and incredible range. She has unbelievable vocals. She moves me and makes me happy xxx

[@AJPflooringuk]

Shivers when I hear Leona sing,she just dominates anyone vocally around her.UK had her first before she fled to murica though.

[@catwoman1149]

Was the right decision to leave UK. The press there is pure poison. So much jealousy and hate.

[@YarmouthMark]

Leona was way too good for X Factor, which is why she won it so easily. Beautiful looking woman too with a great voice.

[@dramaqueen8220]

This is so wonderful!! What an amazing duet! As an old Take That Fan I love this songs. And with Leonas golden voice in this version it is perfect.

[@TrevorJensenTunes]

The ONLY thing wrong with this is the fact that it is not a full version... I would love to see the entire song done in exactly this format... incredibly well done!

[@bradthomson2978]

Absolutely beautiful and amazing!

[@SpecialgiftsLA]

Goosebumps. Leona's voice is pure gold. Thank you gary . Makes me emotional to hear these songs revived in such beautiful renditions.

[@stephenwright8551]

Why isn't there a crooner sessions album out.

[@lindanoble7047]

Good idea with proceeds to the NHS perhaps

[@annhughes1503]

Stephen wright would love a crooner sessions album

[@Madysonx7x]

Um....probably because of Lockdown 😉 Hopefully when restrictions are lifted and everyone can get into the studio we’ll get one. I would certainly buy it.

[@catwoman1149]

She is a super star but in US. It's all about marketing. Also her music isn't that popular anymore. But I guess she's happy with her life and that's the most important thing. Not being a overhyped star like most ppl in show biz.
