I am surprised there are not more on Rebecca's AT. She is my favourite recording voice of the girls this year so far.

Joe McElderry's AT started off slow last year and then exploded. Perhaps the Rebecca AT may follow the same pattern. Once she has had time to demonstrate her abilities so that everyone gets her of course.

Wish her well. Her and Matt are my favourites so far.
The AT's tend to get their regular members about 2 weeks into live shows!

At the moment I post in this one, Matt's one, Team Minogue and Storm's one because Matt, Storm and Rebecca are my faves, with Aiden coming in close behind.

I may end up being more loyal to one AT thread than another once they get into their groove.

At this stage, I would happily buy a Rebecca cd just to listen to the voice, which I love the tone of.

I love her she has that certain something about her. I like Rebecca, Gamu and Matt this year.
Wow mita, glad to be on the same page for once! I like these 3 as well, plus I also like Cher and not sure of Katie but she has a good voice!

I do think that there is something special about Rebecca, she just needs more confidence. I remember Leona being very shy and nervous up to boot camp though! So watch this space!

I'm looking forward to Rebecca's performance this weekend. "Fireflies" I believe. Her choice of songs is excellent.

A much more assured performance. I think she's on a roll and will only get better.

I'm so glad Rebecca got through. There's not been a lot of hype about her so far but her singing is wonderful and she has quite a unique sound. i think she's great!

Yes, Leona was vulnerable and non-threatening, which worked in her favour, because she attracted a considerable number of female votes -- essential to winning this show -- whereas a cocky, overconfident attitude sometimes has the opposite effect, driving people away.

It's hard to imagine Rebecca ever being cocky, hanging arround outside Bargain Booze or the Cabbage Hall Pub. I much prefer this version.

This is what the X-Factor is for -- to catch people who have slipped through the net.

Love Rebecca even if I wanna slap her mentor but that isn't her fault.
I hope we see this girl for a long time and will be backing her to win. I look forward to talking to people on this thread about her and having my nerves played with every Saturday and Sunday night.

Didn't really like her, but she turned me around at judge's houses =) she could be very good with the right song.
Love for Rebecca <3

I really hope this thread will get busy from next week. She's the best act there and should go far.

she's the only voice in the girls category this year. I'm sure she'll have no trouble reaching top 5.

I love Rebecca. She's one of the very very few singers who actually moves me, and certainly the only one on this years XF. I agree that she's rather 1940 or 50s. I only hope that XF doesn't ruin her as it does with so many people who have a natural talent. I'm sure Simon will want some all-singing all-dancing clone to win as usual.

Just hope that she can rapidly improve her confidence/performance issues. The risk being that the other Judges will highlight that at every chance, the effect of which will only serve to undermine her self belief even further.

Love this girl to bits and want her to win but she needs to get a spine, let's hope Cheryl and Brian work some magic.

If the Judges make a big deal of her confidance issues I can see her gaining support from the audience. Anyhow she really seems to have come on in leaps and bounds since her first audition, her bootcamp performance was pretty strong. Hopefully Cheryl will sort her out.
