I knew it! She's now the bookies' favourite to win! She may not be everyone's cup of yea, but she won't make an embarrassment of herself when invited to perform next year
Dying to hear her version of the winning song.

There are a lot of people who just vote in the final. I think her talent should be enough to secure more of the extra vote.
In the end, just making the final has been something special because I never thought she would get there. She's given herself the exposure she needed to kick start her career, I can't wait to see what she does next. |

If she does win, the only thing I want to see is Simon's face. I think even he is shocked how far she has come and I love it!!

I really wish she could perform her own song, No Fear, in the final complete with all the choreography

Glad she got a great reception. Apparently, the X Factor crew said they've never seen anything like it in 13 years. She sounded really good. Nice of Dermot to be there.

I pointed my satellite dish to Finland tonight to see the news reports of her homecoming. Although in Finnish, here's the ones I managed to record.

I guess it's a given that her "performance of the series" should she make the final 2 would be The Winner Takes It All. I'd just be a little worried that she has performed it only two weeks ago so it might seem too soon.
Personally, I'd prefer Enough Is Enough |

Absolutely love Saara. Best XF contestant ever IMO.
She has everything. Not only does she have one of the best voices on the planet, she's equally amazing singing uptempo or ballads. Whether it's sitting behind her piano singing 'Winner Takes It All' or strutting her stuff with 'Enough is Enough' Saara always delivers the performance of the night. I've voted 30 times every week but I'm upping that to 100 for the final. She really deserves to win and I want to make sure I do everything I can to make that happen. |

Sharon Osbourne headed to LA this morning; I know someone who works with BA who saw her on the flight
Just thought some might find that interesting! |

Definitely a deserving winner. |

Kind of weird though that she didn't beat Finland's entry this year (Sing It Away) which was kind of semi-final fodder

![]() Saara did win the public vote, while Sandhja's Sing It Away was third. But in jury results Sing It Away came first while Saara was third. So when they somehow added those points together, Sandhja was first and Saara second. But I doubt that Saara would have done any better in the Eurovision than Sandhja. Finland always tends to finish in the lower numbers, except with monsters. |

There's a new thread about Matt's duet partner... Quote:
Just now on Capital its been reported that Simon has persuaded Harry Styles to perform with Matt this weekend after talks with Sam Smith fell through.
![]() And there was me thinking this was Saara's for the taking ![]()
