Winner's Single
Winner Leona Lewis's debut single was "A Moment Like This", and was released on 20 December 2006. Contestant Ben Mills reportedly claimed that the contest had been fixed for Lewis to win, as the winner's song was more suited to a female vocal. This rumour subsequently proved to be unfounded and show bosses said that they had made arrangements for the song to fit any singer's voice.

Famous quotes containing the words winner and/or single:
“I would be a winner because I was a loser! That’s right. I dream of failure every night of my life, and that’s my secret. To make it in this rat race you have to dream of failing every day. I mean, that is reality.”
—Donald Freed, U.S. screenwriter, and Arnold M. Stone. Robert Altman. Richard Nixon (Philip Baker Hall)
“The sound of tireless voices is the price we pay for the right to hear the music of our own opinions. But there is also, it seems to me, a moment at which democracy must prove its capacity to act. Every man has a right to be heard; but no man has the right to strangle democracy with a single set of vocal chords.”
—Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)
