I don't agree. Matt was not good, and yes Emily was more in tune than him, but he made a better connection with the song, and put in a better performance due to energy, dynamic contrast and emotion.
Emily has such a weak voice that she is only able to sing softly, and more softly still. This is very limiting. Song choices have to be so careful for this girl to play to her strengths. She has been criticised all series for not going up tempo, but I have never cared about this. I would have liked her to put in a performance with some kind of climax - but she is not capable of this.
