It's amazing how quickly people watched the videos and voted.... guess they must have done what I did and hunted them out earlier.

Personally I think Alexandra was the best. She showed more passion and that incredibly powerful voice she has off to the full.

In comparison to Alexandra, I found Leona's version to be quite bland (though Leona was vocally superior). I can't remember Beverley's version to be honest. Alexandra's was more heartfelt.

Sorry about missing her out I stopped at 2005 because I'm having trouble with the YouTube site.

it amazes me that the same songs are done evry bloody year. It annoys me. There are so many songs out there, and people always stick to the same ones time and time again. It bores me.

'Without You' has been sung every year so far.
Cassie (S1), Brenda (S2), Leona (S3), Beverley (S4), Alexandra (S5)

I personally like Cassie/Brenda/Alex's versions.
If someone sings it next year, they should make a male sing it.

To Be Honest, I Didn't Think That When Alexandra Sang It, It's Not As Powerful As What She CAN Do...
But That Maybe Because I Wasnt There Live
Its Sounds So Different...

But I Really Do Like Alexandra X

Leona probably but I loved Alex's aswell. I thought Bev gave such an ace go at it though and it still pulled off amazing.

Leona. Alex started too low. For a moment I thought she was singing it in the wrong key.
