Yeah, it was originally a Mariah Carey song. Can't remember what it's called. Leon's singing it at the moment.

I thought both versions were really good but Leon's was just marginally better in my opinion.

Leon’s version is boring and rubbish but Rhydian’s version was brilliant.

I really thought Leon sang this better. His voice was stronger throughout the song, beginning, middle, and end but Rhydian was shaky at the start and was nearly drowned out by the choir. In the "money note" Leon sustained it much better than Rhydian and it was more powerful.

And I'm actually surprised because I thought Rhydian would've been better at it with no doubts whatsoever.

I didn't like either performance, but Leon surprised me when he hit the big notes, so I went for him.

However, Rhydian should've won out of the two.
