Great as ever - really do wish that this girl could be given a chance by someone out there! In a strange way though, I'm kind of glad that Melanie didn't make it through Boot Camp now. I think the main reason why she didn't get through while some of the other girls did was that she kind of in the same niche as Ella, and they didn't want to have two young girls singing the same type of songs every week.

Considering what ultimately happened with Ella, I see no reason as to why Melanie would have done any better this year than Ella did. At least now if Melanie does ever successfully reaudition, she might be fortunate enough to be in a year where her type of thing is more actively desired, though I think it'd probably be best for her to just move on now.

I mentioned here last week that it is strongly rumoured that Melanie is entering Eurovision via the Irish Eurosong competition in February.

I think Melanie might have done OK in this series as she is very likeable. The producers seem to have completely forgotten that it is a personality contest as much as anything and they failed to give Ella a back story (they revealed practically nothing about her family, upbringing or home life).

It was ok, got especially painful when she tried those high notes at the end. Nothing better than some of the covers you'd see on youtube tbh.

Melanie always hits the high notes , she just reached limitations of the mike on that camera phone

I really love Melanie and will be forever bitter at how she was completely screwed over by terrible song choices on the show. I think she's an amazing talent and I hope she is able to have some sort of singing career without the show. I would kill for a Melanie McCabe album.

It was good but it just makes me want to watch Leona's superior version she sang on the x-factor.

I think she is at least as good as Leona , but Leona's version has the advantage of being shot in tv studio conditions, with everything perfectly set up to capture the sound of her voice , this is shot on a camera phone but the quality of Melianie'svoice still shine's through

She is very good, bless her, she has tried 2 years for XF and has only ever made it to the judges houses.

It's fine, nothing we haven't really heard before. The high notes at the end were pretty bad.

That's not down to Melanie's voice ,More the sound system and it being recorded on the tiny mic on a phone (not designed for recording big vocal performances )

Very good. As good as you can probably get without the sheer majesty that is Leona Lewis. I don't remember her on the show.

It was a good version and she is a great singer, but she doesn't come close to Leona vocally for me.

I remember this girl, what happened to her?
She's a great singer but nowhere near Leona, but that's only my opinion.

She's actually tried 3 years- she tried when she was 14 as well!
