Nah. Definitely best of the night tbh. Felt she was getting very over rated before tonight though.

I don't see her as anything special,her first song, they may as well have just played Mariah Carey.
For me that is a nothing song and Fleur did absolutely nothing with it to make it stand out.

Her 2nd song was performed good but the arrangement and backing was what made the song sound really good.

None of them are anything like likely World class stars and Fleur while being good,is just another average performer overall.

In my opinion Fleur gave the best performance since Alexandra Burke - Listen(which has been my favourite, because I haven't saw that moment until now)

Lauren does better at uptempos than Fleur, it proves it as she needs less gimmicks on them than Fleur does.

And I get that Lauren may not be to your style but pretending that she can't sing when she clearly can is laughable, the only one that factually cannot hold a note is Fleur.

She was relatively fun for the earlier weeks when there was boring dross in there that couldn't hold a note, but they're all gone now and the fact that Fleur is considered a winner off this Uptown Funk performance is laughable, she actually hardly sung on a singing competition.

Is it really seen as a gimmick to be able to sing and dance these days?

Lauren is a great singer, I enjoyed her voice a lot and I have thrown votes her way in the past but Fleur is more than a singer, she puts on a performance and thus far she is the only contestant in the final 4 who I think is just more than a good voice.

Fleur actually can't sing though, it's like she's become an unintentional joke act.

Watch a Fleur and Olly performance back to back on YT and tell me any differences that you see that makes Fleur so standout? Apart from the obvious that guys will like her for.

What has Olly got to do with Fleur?

Yes, i like Fleur because she shows a bit of skin, total turn on for this homosexual.

Start protesting about something else, this is getting boring now.

I thought it was really good.

Sure the vocals were no Andrea. But as a performance as a whole Fleur is pretty much ready to be a pop star tomorrow.

I think of the 2 performances from both one wasn't better then the other, both did better in their 2nd songs but from someone who usually loves female singers, I don't really rate either of these 2 at all.
Instantly forgettable for me.

pfft she is bigged up far too much, that was mediocre at best her range is so limited that monotone 'song' with a decnt hook was about her limit.
