Why on last? Utterly over-rated style over substance shit.
And that urban (c)rap in the middle? GTF.

Fleur
She rapped because she song has rapping in it.
The performance of the night for me, it was amazing. I think most acts performed pretty well, bar one or two.

She is my favourite this year and I was worried starting the live shows that I couldn't feel that excited about any act even if the overal standard is good. Thank you for Fleur for changing that and that performance has made her my favourite, each week she has been memorable.
No...not good vocally I mean! ! Best was Ben with Andrea 2nd!!!
Her JH performance was better
These 3 should get through though!!!

I wasn't to keen on tonight's number but she came across as very professional, and in a class of her own
I preferred her performance a couple of weeks ago when it was just her and a microphone on stage - no rapping just a nice song!!!

Rapping is an acquired taste same as any genre of music
Oldies and oap's grew up in a different era, to them its probably just a load of noise
I didn't like it at all. I don't think the song worked in that style and parts were quite shouty and strained
I love Fleur usually, but i thought tonights performance was awful, and actually couldn't watch some bits.
she seemed to be shouting throughout the song, and was definitely out of tune. the only bit i semi enjoyed was the rap, but even then she was out of time.
it almost seemed as though she had a sore throat? the judges didn't mention anything though, and usually if a contestant has been ill it's mentioned over and over again.
I hope she stays as she is one of my favourites, but that performance was shocking. I'm sure Simon will feel the same when he listens to it back.

Totally disappointed, not a big band song to start with. I thought it was the nancy sinatra one lol. Rapping in big band NO NO NO! Apart that probs best of the night. Hurt me to say that lol.
'Urban crap'
Typical X Factor voter. Let's vote the boring safe ballad singers shall we?
Wake up and look at the charts - full of Beyoncé's and Rihanna's which is EXACTLY what Fleur is.
She won't win, of course she won't because she...raps and dances. Andrea will and as amazing as he is, he won't storms the charts.
But Fleur, she'll get signed regardless because she has the image and performance of an absolute superstar. Good luck to her - something different for the show.

I just don't like the sound of her voice at all. Each to their own though. I appreciate what she can do.
Yikes - I'm an OAP/oldie who doesn't understand that chart music is what I ought to like. I hate ballad nonsense AND urban music. I make my own choice what I listen to and it's not something dictated to me by young whippersnappers who buy music pushed on us by manipulative lunatics like Simon Cowell. I thought Fleur would win this competition and I still hope she does but not liking rap doesn't make me a relic from the Dark Ages or someone sat in slippers listening to Celine Dion either.
