[the truth]

fantastic result
its all subjective, but in my humble opinion andrea was the best and shes the one Id listen to most
leah just didn't bring her A game tonight.....loved mike and his country style and mike was terrific

but andrea reduced me to tears of joy every time she sang, her tone is just heavenly , he pitch superb, her spirit is pure and shes modest and never tried too hard

She was amazing. I wanted Matt to win, but i'm happy Andrea won.

me too what a wonderful person and it comes through in that wonderful voice

[GypsyGoth]

I think Andrea had the best voice. So in a way I'm surprised she won, usually someone with more style or looks wins shows like this.

Anyway I don't find her that interesting of an artist, so I doubt I'll download any of her music.

[joeysteele]

I wanted Leah but sadly, she sang 'I will always love you', I love that song by Dolly Parton but hate the screaming, shouting way it seems to have to be done since Whitney Houston's version.

I am glad Andrea won and even more glad for Danny too,he and Bo Bruce were robbed last year so well done to him this time.

Leah will get signed by Will.i.am anyway so its ok i guess

[Mitchell]

Possibly the worst one to make it into the battles wins the whole thing, Danny really shouldnt have put her through over Alice

[the truth]

andrea was hauntingly fantastic.....she is the first and ONLY reality music contestant I would ever download music from.....

[Stevep]

I wanted Leah to win but Andrea perhaps deserved to win, well based on the show's premise.

The Voice is built up as being a show that looks for the best voice, not the best artist, which Leah was. Andrea had the better singing voice and thus deserved to win.

All these singing contests are skewed as they make out they are looking for the best singer but they are in fact looking for is the best artist, an artist that is fresh and original who can then go on and manipulate the masses into buying their material. If the The Voice was based purely on the voice and nothing else then other singers would have progressed ahead of Leah.

I think The Voice should scrap the prize of a contract and offer a cash prize instead, that way people will vote for the best voice as opposed to the person who has the best chance of making a career off the back of the show. And if the winner flops it will also not reflect too badly on the show as the show's intentions were always to find the best voice and not the career.

Just to clarify, i did want Leah to win, but if we base our opinion on the show's premise then she perhaps didn't deserve to win.

I hope all 4 coaches stay as it offers a fantastic broad spectrum of music , experience , knowledge etc This allows the show to appeal to everyone from 1 to 100 yrs old

trouble you have is theyd be almost impossible to replace as each is very unique in their own way

Imagine trying to replace William? hes a complete one off maverick,,,, danny is just mr perfect to millions of women , Jessie has a unique and spectacular voice and Tom is methusula whos ruled since Biblical times, who replaces him, cliff Richard? lol

[Vanessa]

They better keep Will and Danny or i'll go mental.

[Headie]

I hope they fire Danny and replace him with another female artist. I'm tired of Danny always asking what the singer looks like and distracting the other judges from the performance, and tired of Jessie playing the "girls have to stick together" card.

Why not get someone like Rita Ora or Mel B, as they have been guest judges on X Factor before and were pretty good, or even someone like Emeli Sande who can offer experience to the singers.

Jessie J is sexist and humourless I don't like her....how can mel b judge talent when she has none herself and she also has no musical knowledge to become a coach. She didn't even sing live with her ex girl group.....Theres loads of great female artists , if you wanted experience, annie lennox has to be near the top of that list and shes got a fiery Scottish personality, she may tick the box or someone like Cyndi lauper?

[reece(:]

I think Katy Perry would be a good judge, after her small stint on X Factor too which was good too.

[Niamh.]

I really wanted Leah to win as I liked her voice best but tbf to Andrea i thought she sang extremely well in the final, I wasn't too keen on Leahs first song but she blew the others out of the water with her second two (imo) Andrea has a very angelic voice though so well done to her, I do hope Leah does well out of this though because she's the real star from this series.

Mike was my second favourite but I thought he was horrendous in the final and Matt I thought was amazing and such a great performer, it was a shame he went first, it should have been Mike

[the truth]

I think matt was unlucky as Jessie simply gave him the wrong songs....hes a great performer

[Stevep]

Apparently 7.2m average for the final, hitting a peak of 8m.

Not bad, the show definitely has legs imo, it just needs to iron out some of the creases.

Yeah, I love it, I can't understand why people hate it so much. It's a massive improvement on X Factor imo

Its infinitely better than that over-commercialised contrived cr*p

[the truth]

I enjoyed the show overall.....I think the 4 judges give a broad spectrum of musical styles, opinions, skills etc As stated in the other thread the weak link is holly....yet again she ruined another final just as last year.....The best voice won in the end in my opinion and I will happily buy her music and play it on my ipod...Other than that the format is pretty good....My other biggest disappointment was that matt didn't get better songs to sing, he was quality.
