Lauren was clearly not a diva singer, yet was being given songs where she had to belt knowing that she couldn't sing that style of Music, it doesn't make her bad, it's just not her style, just like how OTY couldn't do Charli XCX.

I agree. Still can't get over her being robbed of her place in the final though. Its ridiculous to have a sing-off when there is 4 left, Lauren had the 3rd most amount of votes from the public so she should have been in the final.

Again, I agree. She put everything into her final performance and still lost out to Bland Chesterman. Awful.

Lauren Murray, Firestone

Simon was MAD when he criticised this. Perfection

Janet Devlin, chasing cars

Youtube video

No matter how much they wanted rid of her, Janet should've never left after this masterpiece

Lucie Jones, This is me

Youtube video

I also can't believe she left that week, she took that theme and killed it. Could've been her in the movie and no one would've knew

Amelia Lilly, show must go on

Youtube video

Although she did win the vote when she returned

And that's just a few, I could pick SO many underrated performances, a few of which have already been added!

Both would've been more acceptable winners than the ones we actually got as well because Lauren Platt would've promoted that you can sing subtle and actually win, and Lauren Murray promotes the actual raw performance element that the show never appreciates.

Both Lauren's were absolutely robbed by bland males the past 2 years now. Both finals would've been a LOT more exciting and memorable with them

Firestone is my favourite Lauren Murray performance, the way that she performs it is top notch.

I also found in that year that Max's Somewhere Over The Rainbow, Secret Garden, and Seann's Life On Mars performances were extremely underrated that series.

Tbh in series 12 I felt like joke acts were all getting past Lauren Murray at the top 5.

And every time Fleur kept beating Lauren Platt and Andrea kept mystifying me with no performing or vocal skills, I mean with enough practice anyone can do the dance routine route on TXF and it bought her second place.

And I'm saying bought as Simon used a lot of the shows money on her backing dancers.

[supertv247]

oh, and this one, Seann Miley Moore - California Dreaming

Youtube video

How he left the competition in week 2, after this performance and his also amazing sing off I will NEVER know. Last years double eliminations were terrible.
He should've been a finalist. His voice was insane.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I LOVE Fleur and she was my winner once she performed Uptown Funk, But Lauren should've been second!
And Lauren Murray was my winner the whole way, along with Louisa, the fact Che & RnB came above her is hideous

[Mystic Mock]

Fleur just danced through Uptown Funk imo, completely overrated performance in my eyes.

And Reggie N Bollie was at least different at the top 5, it was Che, Louisa, and 4th Impact that was my issue at that point as they were all interchangeable from each other whilst all being weaker than Lauren Murray out of that type of singer imo.

At the top 5 I would've had Lauren Murray and Reggie N Bollie as the final two.

[Black Dagger]

Lauren really wasn't all that.

Series 12 was **** tbf and she stood out against some of the bad bunch that was making it far.

Once Mason left it was all of the **** ones remaining.
