CD Description
In summer 2010, pop megastar Leona Lewis welcomed audiences across the UK to see her live on tour, for the very first time. And now, fans can relive their magical experience with the release of the full 90 minute extravaganza on DVD. Steeped in the surreal, The Labyrinth tour allowed Leona to present her biggest hits in a dreamlike bizarre of mythical forests, fairytale castles and giant creatures from another realm. Featuring the iconic "Bleeding Love," as well as the huge hits "Run," "Happy" and "Better In Time," The Labyrinth was realised by Leona in collaboration with creative visionary William Baker, best known for his work on spectacular tours by Kylie Minogue and Britney Spears. With a specially commissioned, £200,000 wardrobe by fashion designer Antonio Berardi, the tour surprised critics and Leona aficionados alike, playing to more than 200,000 fans over the summer and cementing her as one of the world’s most thrilling live artists. The DVD format includes an exclusive bonus CD, featuring ten live fan favourites.

Format:Blu-ray|Amazon Verified Purchase
Prior to seeing this Blu-Ray, I was fairly confident that Leona's vocals would be outstanding but I did have my doubts as to whether she would be visually entertaining in a live concert - whenever I have seen her sing on TV she has always seemed so much more comfortable standing still and concentrating on her voice. But, I couldn't have been more wrong in my prediction - this concert was amazing, both vocally and visually.
The show opens to a scene reminiscent of an underground cave with pillars, upturned stones and plants winding their way around the stones. The lighting and smoke provides additional atmosphere. The stage darkens and a hooded figure slowly emerges from the back of the stage - Leona has arrived to huge screams and applause from the crowd.
Throughout the concert the theatrics are imaginative, the scenery and props add ambience without being too obtrusive and the dancers are second to none. I played `Take a Bow' over and over again just to watch their energy and co-ordination. After that you think it can't get any better - but just wait until you see Leona singing whilst being pushed around the stage on a rope swing - it must have taken her a lot of nerve to do that as she is pushed fairly up fairly high above the stage - and not once does her voice falter.
Leona has a number of costume changes throughout the performance. During two of them we are treated to videos of Leona which easily make you forget that you are waiting for her to reappear. `Ride a White Swan' is a delight to watch with Leona resplendent in a straight white wig and white costume, of course riding a large white (fake) swan. In the second video, `They Don't Care About Us', you will see Leona in a very different guise - I didn't recognise her for a second in her very tight figure hugging gear and perfectly straight hair. If you have ever had slightly naughty dreams about Leona then this is how I imagine she would appear in them.
Leona does join in with the dancing during many of the songs - perhaps not as energetically as other pop stars, but she doesn't need to, the key to this concert is her amazing voice - beautiful and full of such emotion. During the concert she performs 18 live songs and two video clips. I didn't hear a single note out of place, not once.
Throughout the concert there were many cut shots into the audience who were obviously enjoying the show. It was nice to see such a large age range represented, from young children to pensioners. It just goes to show the broad appeal of this young lady.
If you like Leona and her music then this disk is absolutely worth getting.

Format:Audio CD
Having supported Leona Lewis since her appearance on The X Factor I was delighted when she finally toured and promptly bought my tickets. The show was absolutely brilliant; the sets, dance routines, costumes and performances were all absolutely fantastic, but what stole the show (perhaps unsurprisingly) were Leona's flawless vocals. This Labyrinth Tour DVD/CD combo brings back brilliant memories and the second I put the ten-track live CD on I got goosebumps as the power and beauty of Leona's vocals struck me once more.
If I had a minor quibble (and it is a minor one) it would be that I would have preferred more tracks to be included on the live CD. In particular I feel that her medley of 'I See You/Can't Breathe' should have been included, as in my opinion this was her best performance. However when Leona starts singing 'Happy' any such quibbles are instantly forgotten...
As for the DVD itself there are no extra features or bonus elements simply a 97minute run through of the concert. The staging is something to behold and highlights of the DVD have to be 'Brave' and 'I Got You'.
All in all I would highly recommend this to anyone who attended the concert or indeed anyone who was unable to go; basically any fans of Leona! Trust me you will not be disappointed.
