With the tears Ray has just guaranteed himself a place in the final.

I didn't think Ray was that good when he started the song - a bit shaky - But he brought it back in the end.

Another fantastic performance from Leona.

I know thats your opinion but do you really think Ray should win the XF over Leona?

I'm beginning to think Ray could win this.

The little teenage girls vote could just give him the little boost he needs.

I prefered the second to the first. I dont get how someone could want Ray to win. Would you go out and buy an album by him? Which is most likely to have swing covers or something. It's not very appealing to people these days.

Leona and Ben were both outstanding tonight and it would be a great injustice if they weren't the two finalists.
Ray was good but not outstanding like the other two, however he may get the sympathy vote because he broke down in tears.

16-24's:
Leona:
'I Have Nothing' - 8/10 - Brilliant.
'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' - 9/10 - As always - amazing.
Ray:
'Smile'- 7/10 - I actually liked it.
'You'll never walk alone' - 8/10 - His best so far imo.

25-Overs:
Ben:
'Everything i do' - 9/10 - Loved it.
'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For'- 9/10 - Again, loved it.

Week Predictions:
10th Act Eliminated: I really Don't Know.
Winner: Haven't a budgies.

They all did well, definitely. I mean, they are at the semi-finals. Ben’s first performance was really good as well IMO.
But Leona was absolutely AMAZING, in both songs as well. She nails it every single week, she’s just so talented! And she’s always so lovely and modest about it.
I really hope she goes through.

EDIT: I agree about Ray breaking into tears; I hope that doesn’t end up in him getting the sympathy vote. Yes he sang well but the other two delivered better performances IMO.
