So far in her audition she sang "Travelling Soldier" by Dixie Chicks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuEylnrvyzM

Followed by "Jigsaw" written by herself in her arena audition: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkP4m2Hbc4g & also "Latch" again which she has written herself (they didn't show this one on the main show, only Xtra Factor).

Then at bootcamp she performed her own slowed down version of "I Wanna Dance With Somebody": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXvg2WKC_S8

i was under the assumption she had a thread already. So i didn't start one lol i guess she didn't

She is amazing and shes dead sweet as well spoke to her a bit on twitter she's really nice If i am honest i don't think she will win though i will celebrate like it's 1999 if she does.

shes a one trick pony anyway

i am not a fan of hers, but i have been listening to her Youtube stuff and she is a lot better than i initial thought...
Think the X Factor make over allows her to stand out more, she is obviously talented musician.. but her song writing is not good, but i suppose that is me being over critical as she is only a youngster, at least she has the skill in place for a later date, plus she is very close to James Arthur so i am sure he will mentor her through the lives should she make it as the Bookies seem to think...
Do not see her winning the show... but i thought Rylan would be booted out week 1 last season....

I wish her the best of luck for the rest of her career.

This is an APPRECIATION thread. What part of that are you failing to understand?

And actually; she's not. At all. I've been listening to her album "Simple Truth" over the past couple of days and it's amazing. She does different styles of songs, a few quite up-tempo and they're awesome. She can do anything and I'm confident she'll prove that during the live shows.

Abi fan here no matter what anyone says she is really good and should be in the final 3 girls

Yay you're a fan! If I recall correctly you usually have good taste and were a Dan fan in BB14 this year?

yep who did u like last year in x factor

King Rylan! How about yourself?

Deleted..

Rylan, James, District 3 and Jahmene

I'd say Abi is a "folkier" version of Diana/Janet. She could go far in the competition.

Great taste! Rylan, James, Jade & District3 were my top faves.


She reminds me of Janet sooo much. Like if I was just listening without seeing her sing then I'd think it was her. I do prefer her though.

I have just got Abi's album of amazon. In love with her voice tbh.

Should she get through to the lives, I just wonder what'll happen on certain theme weeks. Will her soft vocal hinder her a bit?

I've been listening to it non-stop since I got it on Spotify about 4 days ago. I'm actually obsessed. ♥


I don't really think it'll bother her, she can style her own way around songs just like James Arthur did (I'm using him as an example as he's got a "different" type of voice like Abi) and I think she'll adjust and prove that she's also versatile like some people are having trouble believing as of now.

I'm not sure as to how she'd fare on rock week for example.

Well I don't think many of them would suit a rock theme except for Joseph if he were to make it through because none of them have any intentions to be that type of artist post show so I don't honestly think it's a problem. She'll be able to make something into her own version I'm certain.

Her album is perfection.

Seeing Red is my favorite track from the album wbu Stacey?

It's mine too! I was just gonna come into this thread and do a ranking...

1) Seeing Red.
2) Sorry I Didn't Do It For You.
3) This Love.
4) Lately.
5) Dreamers At Heart.
6) It's You, It's Not Me
7) Take Your Sins.
8) Crazy.
9) Can't Stop Loving You.
10) No Words For This.

Love them all though!

Yey I love Seeing Red.
I'm gonna do my rankings once I am on my third listen just finished my second listen.

I started listening like 5 days ago and I've been playing it loads every single day, I'm actually in love! I also love "Crash and Burn" (another original on YT)... These songs suggest that she'd produce a brilliant album.

Abi has already proven something that probably no X Factor contestant has ever done before the live shows she has already proven she can make a great album with original material. Something going forward no one can question.
