Leona Lewis has revealed that she is "more than halfway through" recording her new album.
The X Factor star has laid down about 20 tracks for her follow-up to 2007's Spirit, due later this year.
"I'm really, really positive about it. This far in, I'm feeling it even more [than last time]," she told DS.
Lewis also confirmed that she has been working with Justin Timberlake on several tracks for the as-yet-untitled record.
"He's so awesomely talented. He's been producing and he's got vocals on some my tracks too," she said.

Leona Lewis has revealed plans for a massive world tour after releasing her second studio album.
The star confirmed that she will kick off a series of live dates next year and expects to tour well into the following year.
"I'll be touring in 2010 and through to the year after. I just can't wait," she told the Daily Star.
The 24-year-old added that the direction of her second album will perfectly complement her live shows.
"The music has a different feel this time. It’s more of a live, heavier sound with a lot of real instruments. It's something that I'll be able to perform live," she said.

Simon Cowell protégée Leona Lewis has decided on a title and release date for her new album. Echo, the follow-up to Lewis' platinum-plus 2008 debut, Spirit, is due Nov. 17.
"An echo describes a big, organic sound," Lewis says of her choice.
Lewis is recording in various cities, including New York and Los Angeles. Though one track called Don't Let Me Down has leaked online, neither the lineup of songs nor the list of contributors has been finalized. "I'm working with incredible songwriters and producers, and my music has really evolved," Lewis says.
Ryan Tedder, who co-wrote and produced Lewis' chart-topping breakthrough hit, Bleeding Love, is one confirmed collaborator, and a number of top artists have joined her in the studio, including Justin Timberlake, Ne-Yo and producer Timbaland.

I hope her album is good as I think her voice is amazing. Bleeding Love I play all the time over and over I think I drive my neighbours mad
Ive been listening to Spirit a lot these past few days, hopefully the next album will be as good!
i have a feeling it will be better, by the sounds of the people involved in it, and the fact its been two years since Spirit, i think we're gonna see a more mature and developed Leona on this. she was amazing on Spirit, she will be outstanding on the next albumn I think

the thing with BL though is that it was a massive debut for her and she can't really be expected to live up to that standard all the time tbh.

Leona Lewis is reportedly worried that her next album will be a failure.
The X Factor winner is said to be working hard on her upcoming record Echo to stop it "bombing" in the charts.
"Leona knows she's going to have to work harder with Echo to equal, never mind better, the success of Spirit," a source told Look magazine. "She wouldn't want to be a one-album wonder."
The insider also claimed that Lewis is anxious that she has lost her UK fanbase after spending time in America.
"There are plenty of reality TV stars who've been successful with their first album but bombed with their second," they explained.
"The problem is that when Leona first appeared, there was no-one else like her. But things are different now. She has some serious competition and it's preoccupying her entirely. It's as if she can't think of anything else.
"I think this fixation with Alex and JLS is fuelling her obsession to make Echo a massive hit. She must feel like she has a huge mountain to climb to achieve the success she did three years ago."
[B]No need to worry Le Le, if Happy is anything to go by then im sure the album will be great :wub:
It will be great
You can understand why she would be worried though cos with her first album everyone mostly buys cos of the X factor, but hers was great :D so then the second is mainly the real test

i take it back after reading this:
Leona Lewis is to be immortalised in wax at Madame Tussauds in London, according to reports.
The 'Bleeding Love' (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/a78023/leona-lewis-bleeding-love.html) star will reportedly be honoured at a special event later this year, when the waxworks museum unveils the model which cost around £150,000 to sculpt.
According to Angry Ape, Lewis said of the tribute: "It has been a lifelong dream since I visited as a child. I can't wait to meet my wax double."
The singer's new album Echo will be released in November.

Leona Lewis has recorded the theme song for the soundtrack to James Cameron's upcoming movie Avatar.
'I See You' was produced by James Horner and Simon Franglen, the team behind Celine Dion's Titanic theme 'My Heart Will Go On'.
Jake Nava, who has directed music videos for Beyoncé and Shakira, is currently producing a companion video for the track.
Avatar: Music From The Motion Picture is released through Atlantic Records on December 15.
Avatar is in cinemas from December 18.
i'm rapidly going off Leona, I'm really not sure why.
if you go to my music blog at: http://poptart88.blog.com/, i've done a whole debate about why Leona isn't amazing me as much as she used to.

Just watched the video for 'Happy' since I've heard.. I'm not an emotional person but the ending nearly put a tear in my eye! She's very stunning but not to keen on the cover!

this albumn doesnt excite me half as much as Spirit did, it's a bit of same old same old, and well it's only her second albumn! I'm going off this one trick pony very fast! She needs to be more contemopary if she's going to go the distance i think!
