Default Did you like Diana\'s \"Smile\"

Some say it was not her style but did Diana pull off "Smile"?

Persoally i think it was a great performance and she really made it her own song.. The set was stunning and the vocals even Better.. Although Alexandra is my favourite.. Diana comes a Close second

I thought it was bad, but still good. By that, I mean that she had so many bum notes in that song, it grated against her voice, and she's done far better before, but then it was still a good performance, considering I thought she'd fail spectacularly in Big Band Week.

I wasn't too keen on it, probably her weakest performance so far.

I liked it, but I just wish she would tone down the weird thing she does like she goes up with her voice after every line of a song. It get's a bit annoying after a while. I like it, but in small doses. Also, sometimes when she sings, it kind of sounds like she has a speech impediment lol I feel really bad saying that, but she doesn't do it when she talks, only when she sings hmmmmmm suspicious lol

Too contrived. She may prove one-dimensional.

Diana sounds like Donald Duck?

Am I the only one who thinks so?

It was okay. It was not her best performance, and was not my fave of the night.

She can do a lot better.
