Default Alexandra is just as good as, if not better than, Leona.

IMHO, she's the best talent we've had since Leona came in (and Leona did poorly on low notes and vibrato). I'm not dissing Leona (she's amazing), but since this hardly ever happens I thought I'd mention it.

IMO, Leona is still the best X Factor winner ever, and she is world class, she is in a different league of her own. Alex is briliant, but you can't compare the two, both different, vocally wise.

I agree with you.
IMO, it's not that difficult to get much better than Leona, but I think Alex is.
I personally prefer both Diana&Laura to Leona too, they're both quite unique which is what I think we need this year [a unique winner]

I think Alex has a stronger voice than Leona, she sounds like she has more control over it

I think Alex is better vocally but she doesn't have the likeability that Leona has about her, Alex looks like she'll be quite stiff too, but I guess we'll have to wait until the live shows.

I agree 100% [so does my mum], she is just as good as Leona if not better and this is coming from someone who voted for Leona to win about 20 times lol x
