Carolynne Poole

I thought that was a great performance, Carolynne. It wasn't your best, but it was beautiful.

Mixed comments for Carolynne, but will that be enough to make it through to next week?

Now it's been a long wait, but the last remaining 2009 act is raring to go, with Switzerland's entry from 2011, it's Despina Pilavakis!

Despina Pilavakis
My girl, that was amazing! You're the only act left in your category, and I must say that I was a little scared to work with you as you've been mentored in quite a lot of other games as of lately. Also, I usually prefer working with rock, alternative or indie singers as I have more ideas for those types of acts, but I think this song was a pretty good pick for you if I say so myself. It allowed you to show your fun side a bit more, while still using that rich tone you got. That performance was enjoyable from the start to the end, and I sincerely hope the public will pick up their phones and vote for YOU tonight as you deserve it!

Yea, i fully understand and thats what I was getting at, that she was trying to be something other than her usual style due to the theme, and I do hope we will get to see Carolynne again singing her country style as its unique and she can get far in the competition

I quite liked this Despina! It was something a little bit different but it worked! Song choice was amazing and your mentor clearly knows what to do with you!

Despina

Hmmmm Despina, the style of the song I thought was good for you and I am glad that you have got a new mentor who can get good choice for you. For me there was a major problem though and it was that the song itself was actually quite boring. Considering some of the smashing performances we have seen so far tonight, I fear you may struggle with the votes tonight but should be middle of the table which will be enough to see you through.

I thought it was good. It wasn't really your style, unfortuanately, but I don't think you would find many Eurovision songs that are your style.

Mixed comments for Despina, but will she get the votes from the public?

Now for the last 2011 performance, with Finland's entry from 2011, it's Joe Cox!

Joe Cox
That was a beautiful pick from your mentor, Joe. I must admit I was looking forward to see what your mentor would do with this theme, and I think he found the perfect song for you considering the theme. The song itself didn't even seem like a Eurovision song at all! If you're not here next week, I will eat my hat (which I don't actually have, but hey, you know what I mean).

Joe

Joe, as soon as Steve announced the theme was Eurovision songs this week, I knew straight away that this was the perfect song choice for you. You have such an under-rated performing style but you blow me away every time with your performances. I hope now that the public appreciate how amazing your performance is and will give you their support and allow you to return for the next show to continue on this roll.

Joe Cox -
For a night of great performances, this didn't cut it for me. The song choice didn't suit you, and your vocals weren't the best in this performance. I think you might be in trouble after that.

Joe Cox

That was a nice performance Joe, but you as an act are a little forgettable, I always have to remind myself what you sound like.
Soppyfan
01-12-2012
So Joe's performance divides the panel, but it's up to the public on which side to take.

Now it's time for the final performance from the 2010 class.
Closing the show with Azerbaijan's entry from 2011, it's Belle Amie!

Its Joe not Jake lol

Belle Amie
That was a great way to close the show girls. It wasn't that great, but it was nowhere near bad too. The song featuring a mixed male/female vocal as well as male solos put me off a bit, but one can see past that if one uses a bit of imagination. What I'd really like you to do though is pick a song that has a bit more attitude and focus on you as individuals rather than a harmony group. Do that and you'll be here for a long time to come. This week's performance ought to give you that chance, so well done girls!

It wasn't the best way to finish the show tonight. It wasn't a great performance guys. The song choice again didn't suit your style. I would have hoped your mentor would have gone uptempo with you as there are a lot of Eurovision songs that would have suited you. But if you make it through, I do hope your mentor can improve on this.

Belle Amie

Girls, I have to give your mentor credit tonight that was a superb song choice for you ladies. It allowed you to inject your sexy personalities into the performance and not only wow us with the vocals but also with the performance. Girls apart from my category this was one of my favourite performance tonight. I cant wait to see you girls in the next show.

I really think the other judges are watching a different show from me, because that performance was flawless, girls. In my opinion it was one of the best performances of the night.
Soppyfan
01-12-2012
And we finish with mixed comments for Belle Amie, can they avoid that sing-off?

So that's it ladies and gentleman, all 12 of the remaining acts have sung and the lines are now OPEN!

So as always viewers (if you are watching), send in your rankings of 12-1 to me by inbox. Judges can vote too and also rank their own acts. The lines will remain open until 8:30pm where we will have another group performance followed by the results and yet another two acts will be leaving the competition for good, (which will be the last time...for now...) so don't let that be your favorite. In the meantime, feel free to discuss about tonight's show here...and if you are feeling generous, send me some messages on here to get better soon and such.

Finished in one hour! That was fast!

Feeling nervous now, but people please vote for the '12 class! That is Carolynne, District3, Jake and Leanne! They need your votes!

Well done everyone

I really hope my team will make it through, but sorting out all my sing off songs just incase. If the public think any of my acts weren't good enough tonight, I fully respect their opinions and my acts will come out fighting in the sing off and will try to show why they still want to be in the show.

Speaking of which, you're the only mentor who still hasn't send me your sing-off songs.

Haha if you want them I can send you them, but I havent sent them as I was at the last results show and will be at this one lol
Soppyfan
01-12-2012
Yes, that'll do fine. 40 minutes left to vote, one judge still hasn't voted and that could cause serious problems.
Already I've got several ties at the top and around the middle!
