Vorlage:Infobox Single "Bleeding Love" is a pop ballad written by Jesse McCartney[1] and Ryan Tedder produced for British singer Leona Lewis's debut album, Spirit.[2] The song is the album's lead single (Lewis's official second single following "A Moment Like This"), released in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland in October 2007.[3] "Bleeding Love" became the best-selling single of 2007 in the United Kingdom,[4] and, since the single's release, it has become a major international hit as the best-selling single of 2008. "Bleeding Love" is also the best selling song of the decade by a female artist, this was previously held by Shakira's "Hips Don't Lie".

The single has reached number one in over 34 countries,[5] including Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. This is the second song to achieve this feat after Candle in the Wind. The video aired on 17 October 2007,[6] and was uploaded to popular video-sharing website YouTube on the same day, where it has garnered over 82 million views, making it the 8th most watched video of all-time on the site.[7]

The track has sold 3,420,000 digital downloads in the United States alone, and was the best selling single there in 2008.[8] The song achieved a similar feat in the United Kingdom where it was the best-selling single of 2007.[9]
"Bleeding Love" has charted within the UK top 100 singles chart in three different years, in 2007 it peaked at #1, 2008 at #2 and 2009 at #97.[10] "Bleeding Love" was nominated for Record of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 51st Grammy Awards.

History

In December 2006, Lewis won the third series of British reality singing contest, The X Factor, her prize being a £1 million recording contract with Sony BMG, of which Simon Cowell is an A&R executive.[11] Cowell also mentored Lewis on the show. Cowell wanted Lewis's debut album to be an "incredible record" of original material, using some of the world's best record producers and songwriters.[12]

Meanwhile, in February 2007, OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder and pop singer-songwriter Jesse McCartney had written the song "Bleeding Love" for McCartney's third studio album,[13] Departure, however, his record label did not like the song.[14] Tedder believed it was a "massive" song and the record company were "out of [their] mind". McCartney wanted to keep it for himself as he had a personal attachment to the song, but Tedder realised it would not work for him.[14] Despite his own reality TV background, Tedder had previously made the decision not to work with contestants from the singing competition American Idol, but he had not heard of The X Factor, and on being shown a website about Lewis, he thought that "her voice just sounded unreal," saying that "from a writer's perspective, this girl — with or without a TV show — has one of the best voices I've ever heard."[15] On hearing that Cowell was looking for songs for Lewis's debut album, Tedder rearranged "Bleeding Love", changed the key and tailored it to suit her voice.[14] He pitched the song to Cowell, who said it was "the one".[15]

Song structure

"Bleeding Love" is a pop song with R&B undertones set in the key of F major. It moves at 104 bpm and is set in 4/4 time. The album version runs for four minutes and twenty-two seconds and the radio edit runs for four minutes and one second. Lewis performs (A5) during the final chorus, and (D4) during each verse. The range of the song for her version is 1 1/2 octaves.[16]

The song refers to someone in a relationship who is extremely blinded by love. Regardless of the numerous warnings from her friends and the fact that she is emotionally hurt by her lover, she continues to love him and accepts the pain. Metaphorically, this is represented in him "cutting her open". However, all she can do is "bleed love" for him.[17]

"Bleeding Love" is constructed in the common verse-chorus-bridge song pattern. It employs a church organ which is audible throughout the song until the bridge. Synthesized strings are also prominent throughout the song, which intermittently integrates wood block percussion throughout the track. A heavy, distorted marching band-like drum loop backs the song.[18]

The song employs an interesting yet subtle harmonic shift beginning at the bridge. A harmonic shift or harmonic variety generally identifies most song bridges. What is special in "Bleeding Love" is that the turn around from the common I, VI, IV, V (F, Dm, Bb, C) progression used exclusively up to the bridge for both verses and choruses shifts to focus on the relative minor: VI, IV, I/V, V (Dm, Bb, F/C, C). The darker quality of superimposing the second half of the verse, as well as the final chorus over this VI chord progression, in addition to resolving the song on this relative minor, enhances the intensity of the pain and pathos of the song.

Promotion

The song's first radio play was on the BBC Radio 1 Chart Show on 16 September 2007,[3] and was quickly followed by an online exclusive streaming by celebrity blogger Perez Hilton.[19] It was reported that over 1.5 million people listened to the song online.[20] The song was also Scott Mills's record of the week from Monday 24 September to Friday 28 September.[21]

Lewis went on a two-day regional UK radio tour to promote the single and album on 11 and 12 October 2007.[22] This was followed by an appearance on This Morning on 15 October. Lewis performed the song live on the fourth series of The X Factor on 20 October 2007,[23] and also made appearances on several other TV and radio shows such as T4, GMTV and Loose Women.

Lewis also performed the song at the Festival della canzone italiana on 29 February 2008, and on German entertainment show Wetten, dass..? on 1 March 2008.[24]

Lewis made her US television debut on The Oprah Winfrey Show, on 17 March 2008,[25] where she sang "Bleeding Love". She has also performed on Good Morning America on 4 April 2008, Live With Regis and Kelly on 8 April 2008, Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Ellen DeGeneres Show on 11 April 2008, and The Tyra Banks Show on 17 April 2008. Lewis performed the song live on the seventh series of American Idol on Wednesday 23 April 2008.[26]

Reception

Critical reaction to the song was mostly positive, with entertainment website Showbiz Spy describing it as "emotionally fuelled", saying, "this track perfectly showcases Leona's impressive vocal prowess and from the moment she opens her mouth we are instantly reminded about her amazing voice, capable of heart stopping intensity and a playful light touch."[27] Digital Spy's review of the song gave it four stars out of five, saying it is "easily the best single to be released by an X Factor star," and describing it as "a brilliantly smart pop record, managing to offer the lovelorn balladry that Lewis' X Factor fans are no doubt craving, while also suggesting a hint of street cred in the form of some beefy, vaguely modish beats."[28] It came second in Digital Spy's Top 20 Singles of 2007 announced on 31 December.[29]

However, BBC America's reviewer expressed that "the inventive percussion can't stop "Bleeding Love" from sounding dated, like filler on some long-lost, late '90s Mariah Carey album. It's one of those mid-tempo numbers — too slow for the club, too fast for the foxtrot. Actually, with its marching band drum beat, it sounds as much like Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback Girl" as a ballad can." The critic continues to say, "On to the positive: Lewis wisely restrains her vocals, never devolving into those vocal acrobatics that have historically plagued Christina Aguilera."[30]

Billboard's review of "Bleeding Love", the first ahead of the song's release in the United States, stated it was "a colossal and timeless debut", going on to say "not only a one-listen harmonic show-stopper, it is also hip, soulful, beat-rippling and an undeniable vocal tour de force."[31] The Village Voice described the song as a "perfectly devised emo-pop machine ... the old Mariah is jealous right now."[32]

"Bleeding Love" has earned Lewis numerous awards and nominations. In December 2007, "Bleeding Love" won The Record of the Year[33] and the award for Best Track in the Virgin Media Music Awards 2007.[34] In January 2008, the song was nominated for the British Single award at the 2008 BRIT Awards.[35] Although the award was won by Take That's "Shine", it was announced that "Bleeding Love" had received the second highest number of public votes. The massive success of "Bleeding Love" earned Lewis the music award at Britain's Best 2008, which was aired on ITV1 on Friday 23 May 2008. On 3 December 2008, the song was nominated for Record of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 51st Annual Grammy Awards.[36] Rolling Stone magazine ranked the song 25th in the list of The 100 Best Singles of 2008.[37]

Chart performance

"Bleeding Love" debuted on the UK Singles Chart at number one on 28 October 2007.[38][39] With "Bleeding Love" reaching number one, Lewis became the first contestant from The X Factor to achieve two UK number-one singles.[40] Its seven week run at number one was also the longest by a single from a UK female solo artist in chart history.

In Australia, "Bleeding Love" debuted at number-nine on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart on 24 December 2007, and on 21 January 2008, topped the chart making Lewis the first artist to come from a British reality music talent show to top the Australian charts, and the first British act to reach number one on the ARIA Singles Chart since Sandi Thom's "I Wish I Was a Punk Rocker (With Flowers in My Hair)" in early 2007. On 10 February 2008, the single received a platinum certification, with sales of over 70,000.[41] In New Zealand, Lewis became the first British female solo artist to have a number one single since the Sugababes topped the chart in January 2006; it stayed at number one for five weeks.[42] It also reached number one in Switzerland, Norway, Belgium and the Netherlands.[43]

In the United States, the single's digital release on 18 December 2007, led to nearly 6,000 legal downloads of the song.[44] As the song was added to song rotations throughout the country, increased digital sales of the single led to the song's debut on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart at number 11.[45] The subsequent two weeks pushed the song up the charts, officially debuting on the Billboard Hot 100 on the charting week of 1 March 2008 at number 85.[39] The song has become Lewis' first U.S. top ten hit, reaching #1 on the Billboard Hot 100,[39] and has also peaked at #1 on the Billboard Pop 100, holding the position for twelve weeks, tying the record held by Flo Rida with "Low".[46] Also, it reached #1 on the Hot Digital Songs[47][48] This makes Lewis only the third female artist from the UK to ever have a number one hit on the Hot 100 with her first single, following Petula Clark with "Downtown" in 1965 and Sheena Easton with "Morning Train (Nine to Five)" in 1981.[49] In addition it is also the first U.S. number one song (debut or not) by a solo British female since Kim Wilde's "You Keep Me Hanging On" more than 20 years prior.[50] It also jumped to number one in Canada in the same week. The song has sold over 3 million in U.S. digital downloads makes Leona the first female artist to have this record.[51]

In the U.S., "Bleeding Love" reached number one for a week, before slipping to number four, rising to number two the next week, and then returning to the number-one position on the Billboard Hot 100, before being succeeded by Lil Wayne's "Lollipop." Its return to number one on the Hot 100 coincided with the parent album Spirit debuting at number one on the Billboard 200, making Lewis the first solo British artist in 18 years to top the Billboard albums and singles simultaneously. The song yet again returned to number one for the third time on the Hot 100 on the charts dated 10 May 2008. The song's return to the top of the Hot 100 for a third time made it the first song to have three separate turns at number one on the Hot 100 since Chic's "Le Freak" in January 1979, and only one of four songs to ever do so.[52] This time, the song stayed at the top spot for a second consecutive week, bringing its total to four non-consecutive weeks at #1 on the Hot 100. The song spent twenty consecutive weeks in the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100 and ten weeks in the Top Two.

In Canada, the song reached number one on the Canadian Hot 100 dated 5 April 2008. This was the first time a non-North American act has ever reached number one on the chart since its establishment in 2007.

"Bleeding Love" was a hit on radio stations around the world, reaching number one in the airplay charts of the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Germany,[53] France,[54] Australia,[55] New Zealand, Luxembourg,[56] Latvia,[57] Slovakia[58] Latin America,[59] Estonia[60] and Japan.[61] In the Greek Airplay Chart, it reached number two,[62] it peaked at number two also on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay chart.

In Italy the song peaked at number 2 on the FIMI singles chart based only on digital downloads; instead it peaked at number 1 on the Italian Musica&Dischi singles chart, which is based on digital downloads and CD single sales, for 13 non-consecutive weeks.[39]

This song was #1 on MTV Asia's list of Top 100 Hits of 2008

It was the first time a single by a UK female solo artist had topped the end of year singles sales chart in the 55 year history of the official charts.[4] "Bleeding Love" was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry on 9 November 2007,[72] and platinum on 18 January 2008.[73] Currently, it has stayed in the Top 75 for twenty weeks, nineteen of those in the Top 40.[39]
