Her endowed prize was a £ 1 million recording deal with Sony BMG , where Simon Cowell (who was also on the jury for The X Factor) is an A&R chief . Cowell motivated Lewis on the talent show. He wanted to make an "incredible recording" of Lewis' debut album with the world's best producers and songwriters .
In February 2007, wrote OneRepublic -Frontman Ryan Tedder and Pop - singer and songwriter Jesse McCartney song Bleeding Love for McCartney's third studio album Departure , but his music label did not like the song. Tedder thought the song was "massive". McCartney wanted to keep the song to himself, but Tedder refused to work with it. In an interview, Tedder said he didn't want to work with an American Idol winner , but while listening to a few songs on Lewis' website , he said, “From a songwriter's point of view, this girl has one of the best voices, with or without a TV show I've ever heard. ”When Tedder heard that Cowell was looking for songs for Leona's debut album, Tedder arranged Bleeding Love for Leona Lewis because the song was a perfect match for her voice.

Furthermore, the melody of a synthesizer played, which a wood - percussion instrument integrated into the melody. A drum bass provides the rhythm . The song inserts an interesting yet simple harmonic sound at the beginning of the bridge. A harmonic shift or harmonic multiplicity generally identifies most song bridges. Bleeding Love uses the I, VI, IV, V (F, Dm, Bb, C) progressions in the main time . The quality of the second verse, as well as the chorus, on the further development of the chords : VI, in connection with the parallel key , increases the tension and emotions of the song.
McCartney wrote that the song was about a friendship between a boy and a girl and said:
“I think of the thought that we love each other so much that it is sweet. I didn't see my girlfriend for four months and I really wanted to meet her again. I fell so in love with her that it was embarrassing. I was blinded by love. "
