OMG my name is Leah B. This song is so sweet but just a little creepy that it's MY name. But I guess you have to share your name. LOL.

I am 27 and I grew up listening to Roy Orbison who has such an amazing voice my favorite song is Leah. I think Chris Isaak done a great job with his interperation

Good cover and interpretation. What makes this cover so good is the fact that Chris Isaak sang it his way as opposed to singing it just like Roy Orbison.

Probably nervous...I mean...he's there for Roy!!

I wish the audio quality was better on this video... but it's nice to see the cover of this song from Chris Isaak.
"From the hut, to the sea... to the sea"? It's supposed to be "from the hut, to the boat, ... to the sea". I can't believe Chris messed up the lyrics! What gives? :)

this is an amzing cover by one of THE finest voices in the world today.
why chris isaak isnt a huge worldwide superstar with his talent i will never know.

What a disappointment! I'm a big fan of Chris Isaak, but this doesn't seem to do justice to Roy's song.
bigplugg (March 17, 2008 at 12:55 pm)
Roy is the man there is no doubt about that however this is a very good cover and a great tribute to roy I am sure roy would be happy with Chris Isaak singing Leah.
