Peu connue en France, Leona Lewis est une superstar outre-Manche. Il faut dire que son physique classe mannequin et son très beau timbre de voix ne sont pas passés inaperçus depuis qu’elle a remporté l’émission X-Factor en 2006. Comparée à Mariah Carey pour sa capacité à passer du très aigu au très grave dans le même phrasé, elle a vendu plus de 9 millions d’exemplaires de Spirit, son premier album en 2008. Emportée par ce succès, elle sort Echo un an plus tard sans toutefois susciter le même engouement.
Retour à la case départ avec Glassheart, un troisième effort que l’artiste a pris plus de temps à enregistrer (deux ans) tout en faisant à nouveau confiance au producteur Ryan Tedder. L’auteur et producteur de « Bleeding of Love », tube qui a fait la renommée de Leona Lewis sur son premier album, a pourtant suivi sa star dans un nouveau registre. Une partie des titres est ouvertement dance voire dubstep ou drum'n'bass à l’occasion. Les ballades R&B sont malheureusement toujours au programme et plombent parfois l’album à l’image de « Stop the Clocks » ou de « Fireflies », relativement soporifiques. Les trois premiers titres de Glassheart n’augurent d’ailleurs rien de bon. « Trouble », « Un Love Me » et « Lovebird » sont certes bien produits mais ne réussissent pas à accrocher l’oreille.
Il faut pourtant reconnaître à Leona Lewis des efforts certains pour sortir de la platitude des productions commerciales : « Come Alive » est parfaitement taillé pour les boîtes de nuit, « I To You » est une jolie ballade pop, « Shake You Up » est plutôt entraînant et c’est finalement « Glassheart » qui tire le tout vers le haut avec sa rythmique drum'n'bass. Plus Kylie Minogue que Mariah Carey désormais, Glassheart est un peu à l’image de la pochette du disque, très beau mais bien trop lisse pour gommer l’aspect « artiste de papier glacé » qui colle à la peau de la chanteuse. Rien de très original au final malgré de belles vocalises.
