I really want him to win, I was talking to his family last week,they are all so nice, scraping the money together each week to come down for the show. There's another Marcus on the American show, who's great, maybe they should do a duet o/

i didn't think marcus was as great as he has been in the past, his vocal was shaky in parts and you could hear him struggling to breathe in time to sing the next line once or twice.

i think micha is amazing and amelia lily.

i've never thought janet was that great. she has an interesting vocal, she could do well and sell loads of records but i dont think this is the right platform for her, they aren't letting her be true to herself, simply because it doesn't really fit.

Little Mix has lost favouritism after getting the dreaded opening slot

I think Marcus is like Olly Murs, a great performer and audience love him. If he win getting the right manager, he'll make it or he'll be like other Xfactor male winners :confused: . I think Misha is a ready-to-go artist, her popularity went down hill after Tulisa's public claim of her bully. Apology or not, we have to admit that tarnish her chances totally. Amelia is the new girl, but I felt she always screaming rather than belting the high notes.

Little Mix is probably the most current style. teens would definitely love them, but I hate the fact they keep dwelling on the story of one of the girl was bullied online on her weight. I'm a big girl but if you have the confident and just joke about it, brush the comments over your shoulders, you'll be fine. Or you can do what Craig did, diet and exercise to be fitter and feel better :D . Besides, I don't think she's that big..... but comparing to the other 3. may be :confused:

However, I agreed with you about Janet. Among all the contestant, if she have the right manager/guide she can sell records and be big. Xfactor is not the right platform for her (BGT might be better?? just imagine if SuBo in Xfactor? Tulisa's comment definitely be, "I felt it's predictable every week" ;) ). And don't understant why she need to sing upbeat tempo songs (both made her forget her lyrics!).. if she needs a little pick up, she can sing something like Torn (Nat Imbruglia). Not Marcus entertaining beat :wall:

Forgetting the words during 2 different performances is unforgivable in a singing competition like this. I think Janet's luck is about to run out and she will be going home tonight

Janet isn't even that original, there's a girl in american Xfactor with the same voice, and Diana Vickers was the same last year. its such a fake put on voice imo. Hopefully Marcus wont win and be under the dreaded male contestant pressure. Misha B should win but probably wont sadly

Misha b still isn't being the artist she was when she first started out. she has lost all of her attitude that made her performance so strong. now she's greatful or happy or whatever they're telling her to be. she's better than that. it's annoying me.

i now think amelia lilly should win, before live shows it was between her and misha b for me anyway i think, if i can remember properly!

marcus will do well but i don't think she should win, he's a little bit too wishy washy at times.

Janet.

It was expected after some disastrous performances recently even though I thought her survival song was quite good (I love Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol).
