Could Saara actually win this?

Ask me this 3 weeks ago and I'd have thought there would have been more chance of a Steve Brookstein career rebirth, but now I think she could actually pipe this.

Saara is not in the same league as Alex. Its like comparing Chelsea with Dagenham.

She will win but can't see a succesful career will get plenty work in musicals though

Homegirl Alex ain't all that. Saara could sing vocal circles around your girl.

Does that mean Honey G coming in fifth represents Ruth Lorenzo? As Ruth was my favourite in that series I seriously hope not lol.

Alex and JLS were better vocalists than Saara and 5AM.

Saara has a less commercial vibe to her, I'm sure she'd do well in musical theatre or something more contemporary but I can't see her as a pop act without it being forced.

Alex and JLS were the best final 2 ever and this lot don't come close.
Eoghan was rubbish and even Matt is better

I can't see Saara doing pop music if she wins tbh. More easy listening type would be my guess.

Astride a flying pig, perhaps.

JLS better than 5AM

Regardless of who people think are better, there are some parallels between Alexandra and Saara. Overshadowed at the start in the voting, good at uptempos, but really start pulling the votes in at the end with the ballads. Or maybe she is more like Ruth Lorenzo without an Alexandra for competition, allowing her to go further?

I can't see that I'm afraid.

Musical theatre is one of the hardest type of singing. Pop singing is the easiest

Is that not what happened to Alexandra in the end?

Opera and Jazz are probably the hardest to sing.

Alexandra was never in the bottom 2. I think at the start she was in around the middle, then later in the competition gained momentum and edged upwards in the voting stats.

Eggnog was closer to Ryan Lawrie in terms of talent surely?

Alexandra is a great singer. Saara has a great voice, as is shown on her YouTube channel. I think Alexandra has more power in her voice than Saara though. Saara's still a great singer when everything's just right for her.

She can win,not sure if she will.She is not commercial in the UK whereas 5 After Midnight are commercial win or not.However she has opened up a Scandnavian market and it is whether Simon wants to venture there.She will sell records in those countries. You are looking at Ben and Fluer here.

I totally agree. There's a video on YouTube that shows Eoghan not being able to reach the high notes in a Take That song when rehearsing. Matt can reach them easily. Matt also sounds better than him in the 'normal' notes sections.

Saara has not, and will not, have a big career in Finland. Not even if she wins X Factor. That is a fact. And Finnish artists have never been that succesful in rest of the Nordic countries, so even a win doesnt help there.

Saara's main career is now in the UK, and maybe some trickle down effect to other countries, including Finland.

I am still wondering if Saara will be satisfied with some sort of an musical/theatre career in the UK. She could have had same in Finland if she wanted, but she wanted to be a big pop star.

Is being a musical star in the UK better than musical star in Finland? Might be in Saara's mind.

But there are always music competitions in the USA to try next if her career doesnt start in UK..
