Most people will never acknowledge such thing. They think that if a singer can sing, and is vocally strong, then that singer has to win everything. For me, it's all about the performance and the performer. I care about his or her persona, the depth and the extras.

A & A are hardly the best vocalists in the competition, but there is something about them as performers (especially at young age, imagine what are they going to do in 10 years). And people can trash them all day long, they were never voted out by the public. And they were not in the Bottom 2 last night. So yes, in this format, they were in the Bottom 3 a lot, but that's how it goes in a 7-week-long contest.
