This is a COMPLETE retrenchment of this track and it's STUNNING. It will be a complete crime if she doesn't win. Genuinely.

Misha *.*

Misha gave a very enjoyable performance. One of my favourites so far tonight. It was a little screechy or something in parts, but overall I really liked it.

Misha B wow... 10/10 best performance of the night

Well that was superb. You can always trust this girl to stir things up and make everybody else look completely amateur.

There were a few dud notes in there... but OMG amazing performance!! I love the original so much but she gave it a whole new vibe. She could easily be my all time favourite X Factor contestant I think...

Misha B - 9.0

Superb vocals. Kelly is definitely the winning judge with Misha B & Janet in the finals. :heart:

01 Rhythmix - You'll all probably think I've gone CUCKOO by doing this - but that was my favourite performance so far. I just loved it, such a feel good performance amongst all the ballads. And, it was sung really well. 8.5/10

02 Janet - Probably her weakest performance yet for me - but still my favourite performance so far. I just love how delicate every song she sings feels, really smooth and soft and lovely. Anyway, enough of me gushing. 8/10

03 Marcus - When he was on the ball, he was the best of the night, 9/10. However, there were quite a few points when he went a bit off key, and there were bits too deep for him. I still enjoyed what he did with it though. 8/10

04 Misha - A massive step down from last week for me, it just didn't seem very different to the original, which is what I love about Misha. I love the performance element, but I'm just a little bit disappointed after how amazed I was by her last week. 7.5/10

05 Sami - Sat here with such a smile on my face, sure it's a bit copycat and karaoke, but the bottom line is - she can sing it, and she can hit the notes. There's people like Janet and Sophie with quirky voices, it's refreshing to see a normal voice, who can just.. sing. 7.5/10

06 Craig - A lot weaker than last week - only the last 45 seconds did him any justice. The first verse was pretty flat, but once he gets going, he is quite good. 7/10

07 Johnny - I actually think he sang quite well there... the bits I could hear throughout me and my mum screeching with laughter at the 'Blueberry' comment. 5.5/10

08 Nu Vibe - Whoever thought, let's have them sing with minimal instrumental at the start, was a good idea. It wasn't, it highlighted their flaws. You can tell they're five solo singers. Weak. 5/10

09 Frankie - I lost count of how many flat notes there were, I could count the notes he hit on one hand. 2/10

 

CLEAVAGE

 

*Buzzjack vomits*

Misha B - Would I Lie To You?

 

I didn't recognise the song until the chorus - and that's with reading the song spoilers earlier. :lol: Like Craig, it seems my fave two performers last week have fallen slightly short this week. However, compared to some of the others Misha is in a different league. It was still a very good performance nonetheless. 9/10

 

Misha B = 9/10

Johnny Robinson = 8/10

Marcus Collins = 7/10

Sami Brooks = 7/10

Craig Colton = 7/10

Rhythmix = 6/10

Janet Devlin = 6/10

Frankie Cocozza = 3/10

Nu Vibe = 3/10

Probably wasn't as great as last week, but she's definitely become very versatile, which is always good. Would love her to get far, and she should.

 

9.5/10 Rhythmix

9/10 Craig

9/10 Misha

8/10 Sami

7/10 Marcus

6/10 Janet

4/10 Johnny

3/10 Nu Vibe

2/10 Frankie

Misha: Better than last week in that it didn't have a pointless shoehorned-in rap, not as good as last week in that I didn't think the chorus was very good. Verses: practically flawless. Chrous: not so good. Overall, pretty much on par with last week. Misha would be a good winner but I don't want her to win (or Janet) because the trend seems to be that the winner goes on to be outperformed by the rest of the top 3/4.

I do have a horrible feeling Misha may go a bit Rachel Adediji on us...

04 Misha - It just didn't seem very different to the original, which is what I love about Misha. 7.5/10

What on earth were you listening to? It couldn't have been more different from the original if it tried!

Completely agree with what Gary said, she already seems like an artist! She really deserves to win, but I hope she doesn't so she doesn't get ruined by Syco! I think the public might turn against her soon though :(

Misha B - She set the bar so high for herself after last week, it was another very good performance however there were a flat note or two. The performance got better as it went on and she was still the best of the night. Missed the ricca-ricca-remix though. - 8.5/10.0

I think Kelly should keep giving her uptempo/swagger songs.

 

As soon as she gets a brooding ballad it could be all over.

I'm not talking the instrumental - but I felt like last week, she made Rolling In The Deep her own, but I felt she completely stuck to the original vocally with that performance.
