Sam Bailey is going to win

mark my words

tell me I'm wrong then come back when she does and we will talk

She is fr from karaoke

just because she's not a young RnB Rihana type or a cute teenage boy

She has the momentum building and at the moment she's heading for the winners podium

Those saying she's average and pub singer need to get their head out of their backsides

She is world class

You are wrong if you think she isn't

Your jut desperate for yet another carbon copy winner to fill te charts with crap

Don't you concern yourself with voting for someone who'll sell records to the impressionable youth

Let the people making money worry about that

Lets take the music industry back from the teenage girls and have a real mature diva win

Sam Bailey is the best act since Alexandra and the third best vocalist after Leona and Alexandre

If you think otherwise then you are so wrong it's funny

Untouchable in every way

She was amazing tonight, but I think there may be a shock winner.

I hope she wins
I don't waste money on voting, never have
But hope she wins, best singer in the show by a country mile

Vocally she is effortlessly magnificent. And she's likeable. She's in with a good chance.

she'll probably win tonight. But I think about 4 or 5 to go they'll start saying she is old-fashioned and they're looking for a recording artist who is young and modern, as happens always to the older contestants.

I would prefer her not to win, because winning the show isn't going to do her much good. I can't see her having a success in mainstream pop, but if she comes 2nd or 3rd, that'll open up different avenues for her in other sectors in music where I'm sure she'd be more popular.

I think it will be a very close call between her and Nicholas. The rest are crap

She is definitely world class, awesome voice

She has me hoooked

I really don't understand the hype over her!!

Nor do I.

Well, besides the fact that shes the best, most versatile singer on the show and nails every song every week.

Week after week she blows everyone else away!. its just such ashame that the girl vote ruins these shows.

if not for that she would easily win by some distance!,

She made a poor song choice tonight.

Not a song meant to be belted out. She'll breeze through but my least favourite performance by far of hers

If she is that bloody good how come she never progressed from cruise ships? She bores

She may well win but I doubt she will sell records. So ultimately so what?

Fact : Its not all about selling records.

Thats what the show wants but the contestant is after a career in show business. There are very lucrative deals in the music business without having to sell a single album.

This is true.

Which is why I feel she'd be better off not winning and being a runner-up, because she isn't going to sell albums.

I honestly don't think any from this year will go on to have major album sales

thought that was her poorest performance of the lives but was still better than almost all of the others

Well viewed from that point: fair enough.

Mothers day album and the role of Mama Morten.

Yay for winner Sam.

Last night she wasn't that good. Way too shouty. She has done better.

But I can live with her winning. Far better than most.

Sam B and Nicholas in the top two in any order as let's face it, they are the ONLY ones who can sing in tune.

Sad that that is the thing that qualifies it as in my opinion you shouldn't be anywhere near the live shows if you sing flat.

Yay another stupid post that thinks the whole world revolves around the kiddie charts and the rubbish that's in them.

Oh sure. She will win, her winner's single will do well and then her album will flop, Simon will drop her and she will be ridiculed as every X Factor winner that flops with his debut album. Fabulous.

They only allow silly little pop acts to enter and change the name of the show to "search for a tweenie star".
