don't get me wrong I do like Ella and I have loved peformances she has done in the past but last night I did not think she was that amazing It sounded like her voice cracked a few times. I do think she is good and glad she got through but I defintely do not agree that she is the best female voice since Leona I believe Alexandra Burke Rebecca Ferguson are far superior imo but good luck to her .

I thought she was great but I disagree with Gary - I would MUCH rather hear him sing it.

I thought that the begining was off. But I put that down to nerves. But the last half of the performance was great.

I know what you mean. I really like Ella - she's my favourite at this point in fact, but I don't think her performance was as good as others did. Parts of her performance were all over the place, and like you say, her voice cracked a few times. I think that can be attributed to nerves though - I think she's the best one there, even if that performance wasn't as good as it could have been!

You might find a couple more people who agree with you.

No you were not and I do not think she is the best female singer from the Show since Leona there has been quite a few Alexandra Rebecca Ruth Laura White I would even say Amelia Lily and Misha B are better vocalists than her she is good though.

She was good, but I don't think she was standing ovation worthy. She can do a lot better.

Ella wasn't amazing yesterday, very true.
But considering that she wasn't at her best yesterday (with some off notes) she still sang one of the best yesterday, and it makes me excited for what she could be like when she does reach her potential (if she gets further enough for us to see).
Some people in the competition are below Ella's standard when she's at her worst and they're at their best!

Ella's my favourite along with Melanie. I thought she was good, but not all that.

She was good, but not as amazing as some have been saying. Definitely off in some places.

I thought Jahmene was better on the night to be honest. Ella can sing very well but I don't think it was as great as the judges seemed to say it was.

Thought she was okay but she seemed to have some control issues through some points, especially the big notes which were a bit painful.

They actually used one of the bits where her voice cracked as her recap segment. A bit nasty of them considering most of the song was fine

Don't get me wrong i do think she is one of the best singers in the competition but i don't think she was the best one of the night. It was her worst performance to date and no way standing ovation worthy. Also compare her singing it to Stacey Solomon from a few years back and Stacey is miles better. I think it was the wrong song choice and possibly only chosen as a suck up to Gary like a lot of them do.

I think she should sing one of her own songs again at some point. At least she can sing unlike half of the acts put through this year.

Some of the notes were awful and the last one was screechy. She is one of the better singers of the competiton though and I think a lot of yesterday's performance can be put down to nerves and adrenaline.

She was good but there were a few notes not quite right.

I also she may have peaked too soon, and might sturggle to improve on that performance.

Leona crept under the radar for a few weeks, "Summertime" being her arrival.
