She's the only one who has great vocals AND stage presence. She always tries to make her performances dynamic and fun without losing her vocal ability.

Emily needs to go uptempo or rock the crap out of a song. Maybe Decode? Funny because had she performed something upbeat before, I would have suggested Young and Beautiful or Moon River vut she needs to sing something that's not a ballad.

And Matt needs to sing something current from the last 5 years or so.

I'm so glad that Saara got through. She totally deserves to. I don't think she'll win but she might make it to the show that has only Matt, 5 After Midnight and Ryan in. She should win, but I think even she'll know that too many young lasses out there will be voting for them three acts.

I think Saara and Honey G will be in the final together.

The other contestants are too bland.

I do believe she is gaining momentum and people are now backing her after not being given much of a chance to begin with. Hope she does make the final

I don't think Emily can even do uptempo. Well she could but it would be the kind of twee acoustic uptempo songs where she hides behind her guitar.

As for Saara she definitely should be in the final, she is miles ahead of the rest vocally and as a performer.

Well after the Geisha disaster, Simon said it wouldn't happen again, so hopefully no more stitch up's. I'd like to see her in the Final.

Emily better not touch another Rock song after Creep got turned into a juniors song.

Emily would do Ho Hey or Ophelia by The Lumineers, if I can think of this in 2 seconds then Simon can certainly think of it.

It's never been very clear what the producers think of Saara. Her treatment has been very contradictory. I fear she may be thrown under the bus next week as they want a Matt/5am/Honey G final and a Ryan/Emily singoff. They always dump the most "expendable"

I hope so too. It's already great that she has got this far considering she was bottom 2 in the first week

She seems to have a lot of momentum at the moment. A lot of people I know are rooting for her

The good thing is that they can't (or shouldn't) put her on first next week

She won't make it to the final as she isn't coming across as very warm.

A lot of us have not forgot what a stroppy little madam she is as on the chair challenge

as much as I want her in the final and find her the best singer I cant see it happening

not likely but also not impossible, if she can avoid the bottom of voting when she lands on bottom two it's difficult for the judges to vote her out straight, particularly until ryan is in the race.

Looking at old videos of her on Youtube, I don't think Saara has shown even half of what she can do on X Factor. If Cowell wants her to become a contender, it will be very easy with the right song choice.

Unfortunately, I don't think he is really interested in a 29 year old Finnish woman winning. He wouldn't know what to do with her.

Cowell knows that the big money to be made is with boy bands and young male solo singers. Tons of young girls packing into a stadium, or whatever, which will then result in tons of money being made. Saara might achieve what she's hoping for which is probably having her public profile raised a LOT! She's to go on the tour yet, so that will likely raise her profile even further by the time it ends.

I don't think winning would be the best thing for her, she'd have a limited say to the songs that went on her album. Young boys are more pliable puppets

Second or third would be great for her

Yep! We have our new songs now 😉 we're so excited!! 😍❤️

(There's a picture of her with Matt)

Glad she's got a song she's happy with

You are talking in the present tense for something that happened 6 weeks ago?....she is there to win NOT make friends

The Final will be Matt, Emily and 5AM. They should make the semi final vote a judges decision instead of instant elimination. If they had done that in 2011 Misha would have been in the final. It will mean that they could get Saara in the final too.

The thing that's helping her is that all of us that have lost our favourites are going to her as I think that we all can agree that she's the only one left that can even really sing, it's really benefiting her.

She won't win, but I hope that she can break into the final to show that this show does still care about vocals to some level.

I think some of Freddy's might've gone to her aswell as her vote started picking up slightly after he left.

Was totally confused when she went through to the lives shows as I really didn't get the appeal - but since then I've really loved her performances. She puts on a show and with that belting voice of hers you just know she will do songs justice. Think Sharon has managed her well and would like her to win. It won't happen as the £££ is with boy bands and young male artists such as Matt.
