arrrgggh, Kim is soooo dull...

LOL

The final is such an anti-climax to a fantastic series. Last year's final was far better - even tho' I didn't want that Will guy to win.

Nope, and my hearing's pretty good too

Check out Eva Cassidy's version of it. Kim was singing her version note for note and it was *almost* as good.

no that's when Reggie sings

I love that song, I have it by Eva Cassidy, and I even love the Judy Garland version, it is a real tearjerker. However, although Kim was good, she sounded better singing that accompanied by just the guy on the piano in the academy today I thought.

You a Kylie fan..? Budgie voiced singers ? So blase...oh well each to his own...give me Frank Zappa .Janis Joplin.

I love both Edith and Kim the same (I really wanted Ade out of the last three to win), but Kim was far far better "on the night". No excuses. She was just better. Doesn't mean she will win though, Edith has a HUGE fanbase, and deserves it, but Kim, IMO, deserves to win.

Cxx

Haven't wanted Kim to win all week but credit where it is due ......... that was fabulous.

What happened to all the other presenters that were introduced at the beginning - it's turned into Friday Night with Jonathan Ross.

It's nice that you had all of 5 minutes to vote for people after their performances. They've really lost out on making a huge amount from phone votes from this programme for the final by having it amongst all this other nonsense

I don't know this Eva Cassidy, but I love the Judy Garland version anyway. I loved that arrangement.. gorgeous

How did you manage to escape Eva Cassidy for those few years that she was everywhere? You must live in the countryside

Ok that is that fro now..back to BBC2..Stalin

Give me budgies - mine is happily chatting away!

They usually do it in "shifts" I think, I think he just said that was the end of his part.

She was a folk/blues singer who died tragically young of cancer a few years back. Luckily shr recorded an album and some of her live perfomances were recorded which later became albums. If you liked that arrangement give her a listen. Amazing voice.

I agree with no excuses Kim was better!

Better song choice & better performance! and i've supported Edith from the beginning.

But why oh why couldn't they of had the final in the academy last night!!!!!

Tez

BBC 2 University Challenge looks like its going to be fun.

I do...I don't really follow the charts much these days or listen to the radio at all. Quite a few things duck under the radar nowadays

Ahh thanks for info... that is ringing a bell faintly after all

Is anyone watching "Comic Relief Does University Challenge" on BBC 2 ?

It's looking rather good And its good to see Angus back on the Beeb

Are you reading my mind ?

Yes but I was hoping for Jeremy Paxman hosting!

Check out Eva Cassidy she does a lovely version of 'Fields of Gold'.
