Wow! - December 13, 2008 05:43 PM (GMT)
She better win!!! she JUST HAS TO WIN!!!

I wouldnt be too P.O. if JLS won but owen whats his face annoys the hell out of me and yes he does have a good singing voice but there loads of owens out there! He doesnt excatly scream orginiality. -rant over- :P

AmelleLover26m - December 13, 2008 05:59 PM (GMT)
I agree she is very good.

The thing about her is she is another "Leona" sort of - and I was hoping my favoiute Diana would win - still gutted she went last week but her confidence was never the same since she had that throat infection.

Alex is a great singer and out of the three I would like her to win as she has the best of chance of continuing the sucess when it all ends.

JLS are good but I think Loui will turn them into Westlife 2.0. Owen is average and a bit over-rated but that is only my view.

I wish them all luck tonight.

Tom - December 13, 2008 06:01 PM (GMT)
I hope she wins. She's my only hope. If Toddlerghan wins im going to die. JLS are crap but im fine with them.

chilln_chick2002 - December 13, 2008 07:20 PM (GMT)
I didn't like Alex's rendition of Toxic at all and thought she ruined it but her best performance was Unbreak My Heart by Toni Braxton.

However, my favourite was Rachel the black chick that had 4 children by the time she was 24. Can't believe that she got the boot. Must have been as a result of her attitude.

Natalie.x - December 13, 2008 07:42 PM (GMT)
I also hope Alex wins <3.
She's singing Silent Night brilliantly now.
I wouldn't be bothered if JLS won because I like them too;
As long as that bloody Eoghan doesn't win...
Go Alex. :)

I loved her audition, but what happened to her later? I didn't watch X-factor too much :/

Anyway, I'd love Alexandra to win. She's simply the best. And I agree with some of you: it wouldn't be that bad if JLS win and I also don't want Eoghan to win :/

I don't know what happened to her to be honest. But I remember watching one of her performances and she messed up and Simon ripped into her. And of course she started to defend herself and he was like don't give me attitude, I've been in the buisness longer than you bs.

What do you expect her to do just stand there and take it? Ah, no. The girl has been through more shit than anyone could imagine and was locked up. No way she will let anyone talk to her in a condescending manner.

Miss her loads though. But now I'm forced to root for Alex for the win the rest of the contestants suck ass. But I would have to agree with Pete, that if Alex wins then the show will pimp her out as the next "Leona Lewis". I like Leona to bits but can't help but think that her music is boring no real excitement at all. Too ballad heavy like pre-whored out Mariah Carey and just lacks the overall club/dance number vibes.

TommyTank. - December 13, 2008 08:19 PM (GMT)
I'm confident they'll make Alex more edgy
and urban
aswell as the ballad princess esque type thing
The girl can move and shes pure sex

In Denial - December 13, 2008 11:02 PM (GMT)
I'm so glad she won. I was sobbing lol

*waits for itunes store to upload 'Hallelujah'*

AmelleLover26m - December 13, 2008 11:14 PM (GMT)
100% deserved it for her effort tonight she was the best on show without a doubt overall. And I think she fought for it more than the other acts did.

Whether she becomes Leona 2.0 remains to be seen - but I do see Tommy's point in the urban side to her, somthing Leona maybe doesnt have, so there is deffinatly somthing to work with. She has charisma and drive, which you do need to make it in the industry too - good luck to her, and congratulations to all three of them for making it so far.

I could never do that sort of thing.

Loved her performance of Toxic, that was the only week I watched really.
Well done to her for winning, glad that Eggnogg guy didn't win. :lol:

Suga Aloud - December 14, 2008 08:52 PM (GMT)
LOVE Alexandra, been my favourite since the start. Hallelujah is amazing, a nice song choice, can't wait for the album.

I think she's better than Leona personally.

I was so over the moon when she said that aha. :D
I can't stop listening to Hallelujah, it's soo good.
I ended up downloading it from 7Digital at like 12:30am this morning since iTunes was being an arse and didn't have it available until like 6am..so much for it being available from midnight lol.
She's gonna go far. :) x

Me too. She's like a Leona that can actually do upbeat songs.

Rich - December 15, 2008 03:47 AM (GMT)
Hallelujah was the winners song because Ranch Hand sang it at boot camp.
They were so confident that Ranch Hand would win.. but she came 4th. haha.

Yay, go Alexandra! I love her.

X Factor's Alexandra Burke eclipses Leona Lewis as Hallelujah becomes fastest-selling download EVER

QUOTE
Alexandra Burke entered the record books today as her single Hallelujah became the fastest-selling single via download in  Europe.

The X Factor winner sold over 105,000 copies copies of her Leonard Cohen cover in the UK on download only in just one day yesterday, smashing the record of 82,000 downloads in one day achieved by previous X Factor winner Lewis with her debut release A Moment Like This.


I Saw the video on 4Music earlier, its beautiful :D

I Have a feeling they'll release it as a duet with beyonce
People already love it
And itll be a much better chart position that listen's first peak

Itll be her version of run
but with beyonce

blaketat - December 16, 2008 03:12 AM (GMT)
Yay!
I think she's an excellent singer.
I don't think i'll like this whole

LEONA vs. ALEXANDRA

But it was prone to happen.
Hallelujah is a ridiculous song to have as debut
Even though it's a BEAUTIFUL song.
A Moment Like This is much more appropriate, Id love for Alexandra to have a version of that.

I hope she releases some upbeat songs!
She's got MASSIVE potential to be HUGE.
