Maybe if Emily had done this it would have turned out better ...

Having said that no one will ever replace Haley Reinhart. Her and Casey Abrahams were my favourite AI contestants of all time.

I think the problem is that Emily just doesn't have the strength in her voice to be able to do something like that. Last night, she sounded like she was struggling to make any sound at all.

That's what I thought. I was wondering where her voice was every so often during the song. I don't know if you're meant to sort of whisper in the sing or what so I can't really say if Emily sang it good or bad. I haven't heard the artist who sings it, singing it.

That is true. My wife is a singer and she commented on it. I think Emily's voice is probably a bit thin as well.

I find it amusing that everyone is an expert here.

I think we all seem to be brain-washed into thinking that bellowing out a song and doing vocal gymnastics is somehow the same as vocal ability.

Emily has been ill for weeks- her voice is pretty much gone. Even Matt and Saara are beginning to show signs of vocal strain. 5am don't have to worry about their voices.

I think it could be just nervous excitement for Saara knowing that she's very close to the final now. It's a shame that she showed a little bit of nerves last night. She still, I thought, did great though. I hope she's solid in her next performance.

I don't think we have. I know I certainly haven't. I dislike singers who bellow out a song and indulge in vocal gymnastics just as much as I dislike singers like Emily, who turn every song into a lifeless dirge.

Agreed. It is annoying that people on here detract from a comment by trying to attack the people making the comments.

The fact is that Emily is interesting but she hasn't finished developing yet. There is also limited appeal for singers who make everything sound depressing.

Maybe if the producers had put the best singers through we wouldn't be having these debates. This is real root cause of the lack of quality.

Emily seems nice but is not a strong enough singer for the lives. Not her fault as it wasn't her call.

I agree, Simon has always said that Emily doesn't have the strongest voice, I think both Sam and Gifty had better voices but Emily has been Simons chosen one and focused on her the most which is a massive shame! I quite like Emily but she's been too sameey and her voice is just not quite strong enough!
