Only The Young, Fleur and Ben are carrying this series...
Other than these three, the final 16 line-up this year has been terrible. We've had a dull MOR group of Boys, we've had the joke acts that never were in Chloe and Blonde Electra, the non-entity that was Steph, this year's chosen girl who turned out to not be that good Lola, Lauren who's getting boring by the week, Jay who's always been boring, Stevi - a joke that was never funny, the most failed boyband attempt ever Stereo Kicks...
The series would be a write-off without OTY, Fleur or Ben. |

Correct - shame OTY will probably be gone within the next 2 weeks and my guess is Fleur will probably be out soon after.

Id say Andrea - Vocally very impressive and remembered, Ben - all round good guy and vocally very good, Only the Young - Different and best group left & Lauren - has been popular from the start

Andrea(voice), Fleur(showmanship) and OTY (entertaining and quite good)are carrying the show and the likely final 3(Lauren might make it)
Ben and Lauren are both good singers , but not carrying the show.She has a voice more suited to recording and he has a voice more suited to mid-range pub rock.Neither is an outstanding performer.As for Stereo Kicks, if they can stay at the level they reached this week, they could become more interesting, but I don't think they help carry the show,either. |

Lauren is so average, I swear any other series she'd been out within a couple of weeks.

Only The Young are doing well. If they can outlast Stereo Kicks then I think they'll make it to the final. The groups is such an odd category and it always really splits the vote. I suspect that both groups may be quite low down in the voting and I think next week one of them will be in the bottom two and I might go. I think it might be Stereo Kicks who go...they got the rebound vote this week from being bottom 2 last week. I think Only The Young are probably more popular. Once one group goes, the other will pick up a lot mroe votes. Always works that way with the groups.

Fleur is excellent she never fails to put a smile on my face! Ok so she isn't mariah Carey but who is these days? You don't have to be an amazing singer to be a chart topper just look at cheryl Fernandez or whoever she wants to call herself this week. Cher Lloyd JLS ONE D Even alexandra Burke wasn't a massive powerhouse she reminds me of Fleur actually with some of the raspy tones (I like Alex a lot) however all have had massive success and I believe Fleur really will be a credible act to represent this country, next Nicki Minaj perhaps?

Whilst Andrea and Lauren are the favourites, I agree that the three aforementioned contestants are the best.

These three acts would make a great final line-up, but it's obvious Andrea will make the final, probably Lauren too...

Haven't been as impresssed lately...and quite why Cheryl would want to steal fleur and ruin her chances too is anyone's guess. CHERYL-COLE-MIME should have had the guts and the nouce to put emily through to the 'lives'... |

Love the vibe from OTY.
Fleur is the next XF puppet. I can understand why Cheryl feels the way she does in that respect. Fleur is all fur coat and no knickers. Very little substance like OM the other XF puppet. I am sure Scowell will see to her. ![]() ![]() Best singer this year for me is the young lad from SK. The acts left are meh. |

I think you have got it completely wrong regarding Fleur, as she just has so much all round talent, but i guess we all have different tastes.

I liked her from the start...BUT cheryl has been doing her best to get her evicted in the past 3 weeks, like the other girls who have gone by the wayside.

Agreed re: Ben and Fleur. But OTY ?? They could quite easily go this weekend. I wouldn't miss them. Just nothing to them.
Actually despite Andrea and Lauren being good, Ben and Fleur are the only ones I am remotely interested in watching. |

I would be very happy to see all 3 acts in the final, especially Fleur & OTY for pure entertainment/performance value.

Only the Young are nothing special. Fleur and Andrea are the only stand out acts this year.

Only the Young are the most entertaining act his year.
Andrea and Ben vocally are OK but James is the best male vocalist this year. Fleur is attractive but no substance. Scowell's project/product/puppet. Female version of OM. |

Disagree completely.
OTY are horrendous vocally, and they've been bottom 2 - evidently not carrying the show. Fleur, whilst exciting to watch, isnt exactly a huge talent. But yes, she's something new. For me, Andrea is carrying the show - talent wise he is on another PLANET next to all these so called singers. Ben...who? |

OTY I appreciate so much (currently along with Fleur) as both are the only two acts to offer something different and uptempo and fun to the proceedings. |
