Sam's version of Candle in the wind?

[Josy]

What's your opinion on her version?

I thought it was pretty poor tbh.

[Ammi]

..I just don't think it should ever be sung by anyone but Elton, but, yeah, her Beyoncé song was far better than Candle...

[Marc]

Sensational sexy and superb.

[Saph]

I thought it was quite good

[reece(:]

Best of the second performances

[Benjamin]

I thought it was beautifully sung.

[Alf]

Nowhere near close to the same league as Fergie

[mizzy25]

It was ok I guess

[GypsyGoth]

It was the only song I caught last night, so I can't really compare it to the other performances, I thought she did a great job with the song, but I'm kinda tired of her voice.

I hated it. Why did she sing it so high pitched? :conf:

Definitely better than Rebecca

[thesheriff443]

it was so clear from last night the puppet master simon cowell had given them the scrip of what to say.

never liked sam.

[Benjamin]

Wow, I don't remember Rebecca's version but that was awful.

[Vanessa]

never liked sam.

Sometimes she's good. But other times she's very karaoke.

[Benjamin]

I hated it. Why did she sing it so high pitched? :conf:

At least she sung as opposed to yelling her way through like Luke. ;)

[GypsyGoth]

Sam should be sent back to prison :flower:

[Vanessa]

At least she sung as apposed to yelling her way through like Luke. ;)

He has a rocker's voice. That's what they do. :spin:

[Black Dagger]

At least she sung as opposed to yelling her way through like Luke. ;)

yawn.

[Benjamin]

yawn.

stay pressed little one

[Marc]

At least she sung as opposed to yelling her way through like Luke. ;)

Very true, at least Sam can sing more than two notes

[Black Dagger]

stay pressed little one

You aren't Saph xo.

[Vanessa]

Sam kind of music is just not for me. I prefer Luke's. :spin:

[thesheriff443]

Sometimes she's good. But other times she's very karaoke.

I just don't like her, I don't believe in her,

[Benjamin]

He has a rocker's voice. That's what they do. :spin:

Yes, in tune and well. He was piss poor last night, which is a shame as he was great for the first 4/5 weeks. Saying that most of them were piss poor last night, so hopefully him being in the B2 last week will see him get rebound vote.

God I hope Nicholas goes.

[Vanessa]

I just don't like her, I don't believe in her,

Her kind of music is not for me. I prefer Luke indie/rocker style. :)

[Vanessa]

Sam was piss poor last night as well. :spin:

[Benjamin]

You aren't Saph xo.

You are perceptive. :pipe:

[Marc]

Good thing Vanessa isn't a judge :joker:

[Benjamin]

:laugh:

[Vanessa]

Look, we all like different things. You guys like Sam. I like Luke. End of. :spin:

[reece(:]

Good old Ben clocking members left right and centre, you're learning well

[Vanessa]

I don't care if no one agrees with me. I didn't like Sam last night. She's good, but way overrated.

[Benjamin]

I don't care if no one agrees with me. I didn't like Sam last night. She's good, but way overrated.

That is fine but you have to understand and accept that people have bad opinions on Luke and find him ****, lol

[Vanessa]

I just don't like her, I don't believe in her,

I'm glad i'm not the only one who feels that way. :worship:

[Vanessa]

That is fine but you have to understand and accept that people have bad opinions on Luke and find him ****, lol

That's fine. I think Sam is **** as well. :spin:

[reece(:]

I don't agree with you :cat::cat:

[Marc]

Luke is the worst thing ever OHMY

[Vanessa]

Sam is very karaoke. Not for me.

[thesheriff443]

Luke is the worst thing ever OHMY

I have to say I have warmed towards him.
a good genuine lad.

[Cherie]

I thought Sam's voice sounded strange on Candle like she was in the wrong key or something...get me I could be a judge :amazed:

I just find the whole thing so hypocritical, when Sam Callahan picked his own song, it was a big risk and he was out of his league doing that etc etc, when Sam picks hers songs its lauded as being the most amazing thing ever.. viewers are constantly manipulated by these double standards, I think the script is for Mrs O to have to winner and she probably only agreed to come back if she was guaranteed the win, why else would she have picked Shelley if only to make Sam look good.:joker:

[Benjamin]

Take back that Shelley shade quick before bwoty logs on!

[Cherie]

Take back that Shelley shade quick before bwoty logs on!

oops don't wish the wrath of Bwoty

[Marc]

Shelly should still be there :(

[Cherie]

Shelly should still be there :(

Bwoty? is that you.

[reece(:]

Shelly should still be there :(

She had talent

[Alf]

She had talent
Her only talent was demolishing the buffet

I would pay to watch that

Yes, i thought it was the wrong key. Must be the reason i didn't like it at all.

[Vanessa]

He's a nice guy.

[Vicky.]

I thought she totally missed the point of the song tbh. She turned a 'storyteling' into a belting tune. It didnt work for me.

I have always loved that song. But I didnt like her version, despite it being note perfect (as always)

[user104658]

There are some songs that should only ever be sung by the original artist. Candle in the Wind is one of them. She shouldn't have tackled it, IMO.

Adele - Someone Like You is another one, yet someone always hacks away at that one.

I found another one this year, too... "Ed Sheeran - Lego House", as aptly demonstrated by Abi Alton. Go home!

[Mystic Mock]

What's your opinion on her version?

I thought it was pretty poor tbh.

It felt like I was watching an Ella Henderson performance tbh, my ears felt like they was going to bleed at any given minute.:joker:

[Mystic Mock]

At least she sung as opposed to yelling her way through like Luke. ;)

The best comedy I've heard in awhile, especially when she screamed candle in the wind at multiple points.:joker:

[Mystic Mock]

Sam was piss poor last night as well. :spin:

The problem with Sam B is that she can't sing in a lower range which at least Luke can do, and even Nicholas can do it, but Sam B is lucky that she can belt it out because she's got a powerful voice, but she seriously is ordinary when she can't belt out a song.

[reece(:]

Not Luke supporters saying Sam can't do lower ranges http://i.minus.com/iOibSF7GnWVOB.gif

[Mystic Mock]

You're honestly trying to say Luke can't do lower ranges? If so then I don't get how you liked Tamera who only excelled when she hit higher ranges.:joker:

[reece(:]

And mentioning Tamera at every given opportunity, considering when she was at her best she put them all to shame... Luke can only do one meagre range with his voice and it has to be just right to work, which is rarely http://i.minus.com/iOibSF7GnWVOB.gif

[Mystic Mock]

At least Luke can remember his lyrics and isn't karaoke like most of this years crop, and especially over Scotland and Tesco Mary 2.0

[Mystic Mock]

But what I find funny is that singing like a rocker means that you shout, TXF audience really needs to look away from Pop Music sometimes.

[reece(:]

The criticism is lack of versatility, which is obvious

[Mystic Mock]

If you look in the charts no singer is that versatile because if they was then where's Rihanna's Rock records? Where's Katy Perry's Reggae Music?

[reece(:]

Rihanna has used rock influences in some of her songs, and she is versatile past more than one style (which Luke is not)

[Mystic Mock]

Rihanna can't even sing that well at her own style lol, and I'm on about a full on Rock song not sampling other people's songs and then putting her own Pop style onto the song.

I like Rihanna and I don't even mean this to attack her in fact I'm defending her more than anything as she's doing what suits her best, and Luke is doing the same thing.

[reece(:]

Rihanna isn't just R&B though... like Luke is only rock. That is the point, I'll wait until Salman returns so he can do all the P.E.E.

[Mystic Mock]

Rihanna isn't R&B though, she's out and out Pop.

[Mystic Mock]

And if versatility is so important then Sam B and Nicholas certainly can't win and here's why.

Sam Bailey:
1. She can't do lower ranges.
2. She mainly does cheesy Karaoke type of Pop songs.
3. Everytime she does a modern song she completely flounders and sounds terrible on them.

Nicholas McDonald:
1. He can't hit the higher ranges.
2. Ever since his gone for more modern songs his sounded like a strangled Cat apart from the Adele one.
