Leona has sold more than 20 million records worldwide and topped the charts in more than 35 countries with the single "Bleeding Love."

Leona will also soon join Calum in a new video for "You Are The Reason."
"Working with Leona was a dream come true," says Scott. "As a fan, I first remember watching her on TV before going on to grace the globe with her incredibly beautiful voice. Now having the honour of working with her on one of my own songs is completely surreal and the passion and raw emotion she brings to our duet makes it even more special to me. I can still hardly believe that we did it!"
"I remember the day Calum sent me this track, I sat listening at home and had it on repeat," says Lewis. "It's one of those powerful songs that touches your heart and such a beautiful ballad, everyone knows I love singing them! Calum's performance on it is stunning and I loved being able to join him to make this duet version."
"You Are The Reason" is the first single from Calum's debut album, Only Human, which will be released on Capitol Records on March 9. Calum talks aboutthe inspiration behind the track, which he calls "the most special song on my album," in this clip. Streams of "You Are The Reason" have surpassed 50 million worldwide while views of the official video topped 20 million in the first two weeks and are now nearing 40 million.
