I actually think it's not just her singing but her attitude. She seems really happy and has constantly smiled throughout and taken constructive criticism. I feel the others feel they deserve to be winners which is fair but they seem quite cold.
The journey of Saara Aalto - how has she done this?

Last week, she grabbed the LGBT vote with both hands, by being interviewed with her girlfriend in OK and by singing Abba and launching into musical theatre.
She would be my favourite to win too, but I can't get past the fact that she's already a professional recording artist who's worked in musical theatre and released several albums.”

She's definitely my favourite left in but I was wondering if anyone had an idea at which point she turned things around cause it really is unpresidented for someone in XF UK to have such a turnaround.”

She did not have a bad start. Her problem was that the puiblic failed to recognise her talent
