I'm sure you don't. Blissful ignorance suits most.

Ten years on and still that poor, huh? Do you find that pancake-flat performance entertaining?”

Well I ain't much of a Fleur fan so no I wasn't particularly entertained by that performance, but she is light years ahead of Emily, who is beyond dreadful.

There have been other girls of a similar age to Emily in the show in the last few years let alone since the beginning who were or are better singers than Emily.

Having said that I think Emily is ok and with the right song she could release a successful single. She just needs to stop with the boring performances

But she has talent and is the kind of artist that could be developed into a recording artist - especially if she writes her own songs - if they are good ...”

The problem with Emily's Creep is that the song is so fantastic that it could make Matt Terry even come off as great singing it, it's one of those songs that you just can't go wrong with.

What Emily needs to do is take a song that's not so easy to master and actually master it, because so far she's lived off a great song rather than herself imo.

Even Wagner managed (for Wagner) a pretty decent Creep.

No, she can sing and she sings well but not the most talented.

I'm sorry, but what kind of joke is this? She's talented yes, but she isn't anywhere near to be being the most talented ever.

Everyone thought she'd go home last week but she's still here and now she's going to win.

Unless she ups her game (preferably with uptempo songs and choreography), she's going to struggle, especially now we're getting to the stage where the contestants are performing two songs a week. You can't get away with doing the same thing in two songs - there has to be a contrast.

She isn't doing the same thing every week, and even if she is, so are Honey G, 5 After Midnight and even Saara except for My Heart Will Go On. Emily has proved that she can sing uptempo when she sang Anything Could Happen and now she's going to prove the haters wrong and win!

By the way Louisa never sang uptempo except for Billie Jean and she still won

I fell asleep watching Emily. Can she sing? She just drones on. I think she will be in the bottom with No talent H G.

Honey G, Emily and 5AM are doing similar stuff each week. But Saara's performances are always different? Let It Go>River Deep Mountain High>It's Oh So Quiet>Bad Romance>Sound Of The Underground>No More Tears (Enough is Enough)>My Heart Will Go On

The only similar songs I see there would be Let It Go and My Heart Will Go On

No she isn't, those would be the ones not chosen to go as far as the lives. She is good, but Saara is better.

The problem that does hurt Saara is the fact that she does too many different sounds, we are at the quarter finals now and she should just show off what she does best now and that's theatrical type of songs imo.

I actually would really like her to sing Josh Groban's Brave, she's got the voice for it imo and she could go really crazy with it.

The only thing that proved was that she CAN'T do uptempo. That was awful. Only the high note ooh-oohs were ok, the rest of it was whispery and drowned out, her voice didn't carry at all to make it work, and that's quite a feat when the original is sung with a slightly raspy voice too.

The sounds before the lives are very edited by the producers as it isn't live.

If the show wanted to they could've made Honey G sound fantastic before getting to the lives, studios have very good sound enhancements so they can make anyone sound good or bad.
