Leona Lewis wants to know if a door needs shutting

  • February 16, 2015

Global Songstress Leona Lewis has popped a bit of a new song onto the internet via the medium of Instagram.

The clip shows her sitting in a chair in a studio envir­on­ment while a bit of a new song plays, then standing up to sing a bit of a new song, then sitting back down again.

There's a great part where she raps "shall I shut this door?" which sounds like a great hook. We hope this line stays in the track when it is released.

Door shutting is big news in pop at the moment: the key line in Sam Smith's breakout hit 'Money On My Mind' quite literally hinges on the singer's own door-shutting thoughts.

Here's the Leona song anyway.

i am here. x
