Live Performances
On 20 January 2009, Lewis' performed the song on the Late Show with David Letterman to promote its release as a single. Complimentary of her performance, Letterman said "Beautiful! Oh my God that was lovely" after Lewis finished the song. Lizzie Smith for The Guardian wrote that her performance was the "latest step towards her domination of the American music scene." She also commented on the interaction between Lewis and Letterman after her performance, writing "It's rare for American chatshow host David Letterman to do more than shake the hands of performers on his U.S. show, but when X Factor winner Leona Lewis made an appearance he could hardly keep his hands off her. Hugging Leona, a smitten Letterman caught her by surprise by asking: 'Anything you want to talk about?' As Leona looked bemused Letterman cheekily added: 'Let's go up to the house and we'll talk about it.'" Smith concluded her review of the performance with "But rather than looking pleased with his attentions a blushing Leona looked distinctly uncomfortable."

is thy bread ever more of stale rags
is thy bread dry as paper,”
