I think she's heading for the top 2 (and thought that before tonight's results show).

I agree that her second peformance wasnt in anyway bad. She put on a show thats for sure. Is it one of her best performances? No. I wouldn't rank it in my top 5 but she still managed to entertain and show of her vocals. Really I don't think it will be detrimental to her votes. I do think she needs to rein in her theatrics though. It's fine in certain quantities but sometimes the production takes it a little too far. I do agree with simon that her second song was cheesy. I felt it was more Andrew Lloyd Webber than X factor. However the first performance she absolutely nailed and that's what the viewers will remember. Fingers crossed.
It's going to be so close tonight. But in last few hours, bookies are moving towards a honey g vs 5am sing off, and saara is becoming a firmer second favourite to win! I wonder if it's true that voters from Finland have found a way to vote via the app? If so, her vote might collapse if they found a way to stop this ?! Argh ! So tense ...

It's looking good that the guest acts have started name checking her!

So she just claimed that she had done the diamonds medley in Finland before. That would agree with my understanding that it was actually her choice and that she needs help in creating her acts.
Or she knew herself that it's not very good but since it has a nostalgia factor for her she wanted to do it anyways. |

Think this is the furthest my favourite has ever got!
Who thought at least 4th place was possible after those awful first few weeks of bottom 2 appearances and rubbish edits? Being voted through just once was about the highest expectation if I recall. |

Personally, I thought the staging for Winner Takes it All was awful. It was totally the opposite of what the song was about. It's not about the singer being the winner taking it all it's about the singer being the loser standing small while another girl takes her man. Makes no sense to be dressed up as a Queen sitting on a Throne!
I also didn't think the musical arrangement did her many favours either. However, once I got past the visuals and the backing her vocals were as good as ever. The second song was not the best but it's great that she got through. I haven't decided if I want Matt or Saara to win but it's always been between those two for me. |

She should never have been in any of those sing offs : she was only there because she was an outsider.

Hope she wins.
She is well known in music circles in Finland. An Finnish artist who I know and is very respected in blues comminity knows her. |

Hope she wins the whole thing. She has more talent in her little finger than the rest of the competitors have combined,
Go Saara

The judges buried Matt and Emily tonight. Saara will have received a boost form that.
