Debuting at number one on the UK Singles Chart and the Irish Singles Chart, "Bleeding Love" became the best-selling single of 2007 in both countries.[4] After the single's release, it became a major international hit and was the best-selling single of 2008 worldwide.[5] The single reached number one in 35 countries,[6] including Japan, France, Germany and the United States, making it only the second song in history to achieve this feat, Elton John's "Candle in the Wind 1997" being the first. The accompanying music video first aired on 17 October 2007, and was uploaded to YouTube on the same day.

"Bleeding Love" has sold more than one million copies in the United Kingdom, and over 4 million digital downloads in the United States, where it was the best-selling digital song there in 2008.[7][8][9] It was named the 17th most successful song in the US from 2000 to 2009.[10] "Bleeding Love" has charted on the UK Singles Chart in three different years: in 2007 it peaked at number one; 2008 at number 76; and 2009 at number 97.[11] It sold 788,000 copies in the UK alone during 2007.[12] "Bleeding Love" was nominated for Record of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 51st Grammy Awards. At the 2008 Brit Awards it was nominated for Best British Single.[13] It is Lewis's biggest hit in the US to date and remains her signature song. As of 2021, the song has been streamed over two billion times.[14]

Background

 
"Bleeding Love" was initially written for Jesse McCartney, but was later refused by his record label.

In 2006, Lewis entered the third series of the British reality singing competition, The X Factor, and after performing and competing against other aspiring hopefuls, the British public voted her the winner on 16 December 2006, receiving 60% of the final vote.[15] As the winner, Lewis received the prize of a £1 million recording contract with Sony BMG, of which Simon Cowell is an A&R executive, and with Cowell's own record label, Syco Music.[15]

Meanwhile, in February 2007, OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder and singer and songwriter Jesse McCartney had written the song "Bleeding Love" for McCartney's third studio album,[16] Departure. However, his record label, Hollywood Records, did not like the song.[17] Tedder believed it was a "massive" song and the record company was "out of [their] mind".[17] 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".[18] 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.[17] They pitched the song to Cowell, who said it was "the one".[18] After the success of Lewis's version, the song was re-recorded by McCartney being included as a bonus track on the international version of the album, Departure.

Recording and production

"Bleeding Love" was written by Ryan Tedder and Jesse McCartney for Lewis's debut studio album, Spirit (2007).[19] Production of the song was helmed by Tedder.[19] It was recorded at several recording studios, including Mansfield Studios, Los Angeles; The Record Plant, Hollywood, California and Encore Studios, Burbank, CA.[19] "Bleeding Love" was recorded at these locations by Tedder and Craig Durrance, and were assisted in the process by Nate Hertweck.[19] Programming and arrangement was carried out by Tedder.[19] The song was mixed by Phil Tan at Soapbox Studios, Atlanta, GA, and he was assisted by Josh Houghkirk.[19] The song's string arrangement was completed by Tedder.[19]

"Bleeding Love" is a pop song with R&B undertones set in the key of F major.[20] 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' vocal range extends from C4 to B♭5, but has gone higher into the sixth octave in most live performances.[21] "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.[22] The song employs a harmonic shift beginning at the bridge. A harmonic shift or harmonic variety generally identifies most song bridges. In "Bleeding Love" 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).[23]

McCartney wrote the song about his longtime girlfriend and said: "I kept thinking about being in love so much that it hurts. I was away from my girlfriend for four months at the time and I really wanted to [quit] and fly home. I was so in love that it was painful. It was like bleeding, it cut me open."[24] 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 his "cutting her open". However, all she can do is "bleed love" for him.[25]

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.[26] It was reported that over 1.5 million people listened to the song online.[27] The song was also Scott Mills's record of the week from Monday 24 September to Friday 28 September.[28] Lewis went on a two-day regional UK radio tour to promote the single and album on 11 and 12 October 2007.[29] 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,[30] 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.[31] Lewis made her US television debut on The Oprah Winfrey Show, on 17 March 2008, where she sang "Bleeding Love".[citation needed] 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 season of American Idol on Wednesday 23 April 2008.[32]

Critical reception

 
Critics noted similarities between Lewis's vocals and those of Mariah Carey

"Bleeding Love" received critical acclaim from music critics. Showbiz Spy described the song as "emotionally fuelled", and opined, "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".[33] 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's X Factor fans are no doubt craving, while also suggesting a hint of street cred in the form of some beefy, vaguely modish beats".[34] It came second in Digital Spy's Top 20 Singles of 2007 announced on 31 December.[35]

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."[36] Billboard's review by Singles Review Editor Chuck Taylor for "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".[37] The Village Voice described the song as a "perfectly devised emo-pop machine ... the old Mariah is jealous right now".[38]

Accolades

"Bleeding Love" has earned Lewis numerous awards and nominations. In December 2007, "Bleeding Love" won The Record of the Year[39] and the award for Best Track in the Virgin Media Music Awards 2007.[40] In January 2008, the song was nominated for the British Single award at the 2008 BRIT Awards.[41] 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, but lost to Alison Krauss and Robert Plant's "Please Read the Letter" and Adele's "Chasing Pavements", respectively.[42] Rolling Stone magazine ranked the song 25th in the list of The 100 Best Singles of 2008.[43] In April 2009, Tedder and McCartney were awarded with the Song of the Year Award at the 26th Annual ASCAP Pop Music Awards for writing "Bleeding Love".[44] In September 2011, "Bleeding Love" was ranked number 67 by VH1 on its list for the 100 Greatest Songs of the '00s.[45]

The song has been ranked 129th by Billboard on its 600 most massive smashes over the chart's six decades.[46]

Music videos

There are two music videos for "Bleeding Love". The first was directed by Melina Matsoukas and was filmed in Los Angeles.[75] It is set in a mock apartment block and features six storylines about couples in different stages of relationships. Lewis stated that it is "real colourful, very funky, has lots of extras and I get to really perform".[75] Melina explained her meaning of the video in an interview on MTV's Making the Video, saying that the water in the video is a metaphor for the tenants' love problems, as if the apartments are bleeding love. The international version of the video was first posted to YouTube on 17 October 2007, and which now has over 187 million views.

Lewis filmed a second video in New York City for the US release of "Bleeding Love". The treatment for the video was written by Ryan Tedder,[76] and centres on a storyline involving Lewis arguing with her boyfriend, played by model Nicholas Lemons.

Love was initially written for Jesse McCartney but was later refused by his record label In 2006 Lewis entered the third series of the British reality singing competition The X Factor and after performing and competing against other aspiring hopefuls the British public voted her the winner on 16 December 2006 receiving 60 of the final vote 15 As the winner Lewis received the prize of a 1 million recording contract with Sony BMG of which Simon Cowell is an A amp R executive and with Cowell s own record label Syco Music 15 Meanwhile in February 2007 OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder and singer and songwriter Jesse McCartney had written the song Bleeding Love for McCartney s third studio album 16 Departure However his record label Hollywood Records did not like the song 17 Tedder believed it was a massive song and the record company was out of their mind 17 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 18 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 17 They pitched the song to Cowell who said it was the one 18 After the success of Lewis s version the song was re recorded by McCartney being included as a bonus track on the international version of the album Departure Recording and production Edit Bleeding Love was written by Ryan Tedder and Jesse McCartney for Lewis s debut studio album Spirit 2007 19 Production of the song was helmed by Tedder 19 It was recorded at several recording studios including Mansfield Studios Los Angeles The Record Plant Hollywood California and Encore Studios Burbank CA 19 Bleeding Love was recorded at these locations by Tedder and Craig Durrance and were assisted in the process by Nate Hertweck 19 Programming and arrangement was carried out by Tedder 19 The song was mixed by Phil Tan at Soapbox Studios Atlanta GA and he was assisted by Josh Houghkirk 19 The song s string arrangement was completed by Tedder 19 This section possibly contains original research

message Composition Edit Bleeding Love 2007 source source track A 26 second sample of Bleeding Love containing the bridge and chorus backed by drums and a church organ Problems playing this file See media help Bleeding Love is a pop song with R amp B undertones set in the key of F major 20 It moves at 104 bpm and is set in 44 time The album version runs for four minutes and twenty two seconds and the radio edit runs for four minutes and one second Lewis vocal range extends from C4 to B 5 but has gone higher into the sixth octave in most live performances 21 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 22 The song employs a harmonic shift beginning at the bridge A harmonic shift or harmonic variety generally identifies most song bridges In Bleeding Love 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 23 McCartney wrote the song about his longtime girlfriend and said I kept thinking about being in love so much that it hurts I was away from my girlfriend for four months at the time and I really wanted to quit and fly home I was so in love that it was painful It was like bleeding it cut me open 24 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 his cutting her open However all she can do is bleed love for him 25 Promotion Edit Lewis performing Bleeding Love on the Labyrinth Tour in 2010 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 26 It was reported that over 1 5 million people listened to the song online 27 The song was also Scott Mills s record of the week from Monday 24 September to Friday 28 September 28 Lewis went on a two day regional UK radio tour to promote the single and album on 11 and 12 October 2007 29 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 30 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 31 Lewis made her US television debut on The Oprah Winfrey Show on 17 March 2008 where she sang Bleeding Love citation needed 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 season of American Idol on Wednesday 23 April 2008 32 Critical reception Edit Critics noted similarities between Lewis s vocals and those of Mariah Carey Bleeding Love received critical acclaim from music critics Showbiz Spy described the song as emotionally fuelled and opined 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 33 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 s X Factor fans are no doubt craving while also suggesting a hint of street cred in the form of some beefy vaguely modish beats 34 It came second in Digital Spy s Top 20 Singles of 2007 announced on 31 December 35 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 36 Billboard s review by Singles Review Editor Chuck Taylor
