  • sophie is my cousin,shes amazing and i obviously wanted her to win,but danielles great to,ive met her when i was at sophies, they are both doing great and i wish both of them look,sophie did this song justice&emily was good too,she wasnt the best singer in the copitition but she was good enough,everybody gives her crap but in some parts she is great,but i love sophie loads and she was great in all of her songs,shes performing as dorothy inn wizard of oz in september in the london hattie fields<3

  • loved sophies voice, wanted her to win!!

  • Emilie should have gone through!!!

  • @1hn4ever FINALLY Somone who agrees wiv me

  • @OverTheRainbowLover Haha, I remember getting so much abuse for saying that on the OTR facebook wall when it was on ;)

  • @1hn4ever I Have Emilie On Facebook And Shes A Really Nice Person She Deserved to get throught when pplz like lauren who is kinda argont in my opinion got throught (Yh lauren was a good singer but she was 2 old for dottie) And Emilie Looks more like dottie then anyone else :) XD

  • @OverTheRainbowLover Who's Dottie? It's Dorothy! 

  • @kooki85 Oh Theres a group of us on Fb Called Otr Nutters we shortend Dorothy To Dottie XD 

  • @OverTheRainbowLover Fair enough! :D 

  • to be fair to emilie even though she goes out of tune a lot, this is the best she'd sung

  • SOPHIE ALL TIME FAVOURITE!!!!!!

  • This has to be one of the best sing-offs, although emilie may have struggled with the octave dips; her harmony was out of this world! She is an amazing singer and unfortunately the song choices didn't suit her early broadway tonality. Sophie was also brilliant, but I think her tone is at times a tad mundane, but still a cracking singer! I wish people would mocking her teeth, you really need to get off your soap boxes and realise theres critisicm and sheer malicious spite.... *rant over* :-)

  • Sophie was always my favourite but I thought Emilie did well too. I hate people backstabbing her all the time, I'd like to see any of you do better.

  • okay Sophie is amazing!!! Emilie yeah wasn't as strong but the public voted her in and there are a lot of people worse than her, credit to the girl really.

  • I think Emily did good. she isn't the best but she isn't the worst with a little training she will be amazing. Sophie was amazing tho as always

  • absolutely brilliant on Sophie's part <3 xxx

  • the reason was we were shocked was because sophie was in the bottom two as she should of actually one the show!!

    But emilie actually sounded not as bad as she has- guess she thought there wasn't anything to loose- =/

    however she shouldnt of been standing as amy left first!

  • emilie actually was doing well until 1:04 "wasnt it fiiIIIiinneEe" still, im a sophie fan :)

  • Emilie sounds realllllllllllly good some of the time and then awful other parts.. I think when she gets more training she'll be amazing!

  • @moppethead Yh I Agree Wiv U

  • Emilie was and is awful!

  • i just can't keep my eyes off that huge gap in Emilie's teeth!

  • this is a difficult song to sing. especially the lower part. i think they both did well.

  • sophie is brilliant, emilie is off key in the lower parts.

  • emilie isn't terrible, I think she just needs a little more confidence. And those comments are hardly helping!

    loveyousophie <3 x

  • @maddimags

    i don't really like Emilie's voice, when singing low, she tended to sound off key.

  • obv emile is good cause they wouldnt put her in the competition if she wasnt good :)

  • Emilie vs. Sophie... Not exactly a fair sing-off...

  • i hate sophie sayin frredom !!! ugh she says DOMMMMM xxx anyway luv dem singin dis song xx :)

  • i neva likes emily but wen she sings the high part while sophie sings near de end i luved it xx

  • We all knew who was going through to the next week, it HAD to be sophie, and Sophie did amazingly well, but when Danielle in the compition, they was no way she could win because danielle was just too good :)

  • Exceptional Harmony by Emilie I loved it.

  • If Emilie had gone through over Sophie it would have been a TRAVESTY!

  • soprano emilie is good, alto is shit

  • I think Emilie lasted, as she seems to have more knowledge about music, and can pull off harmonies without any trouble. Whilst i was suprised with the lack of the ability of the other girls to pull off harmonies.

  • ok fp Emilie does sound awful the majority of the time, but there are some really beautiful notes that she hits that i really love. and considering shes singing in front of millions of viewers and 4 musical legends, i gotta give her credit. i mean, u lot go and stand and sing on national tv, go on i dare u!

  • Comment removed

  • I think Emily is talented she just needs some training. People should give her a break, its tough performing in front of millions

  • lol. agree Emilie does sound like a sheep giving birth .I like Sohie though!!

  • rofcmbo

  • Welsh beauty

  • Sophie should of won :/

  • Bugs Bunnie

  • imo Sophie was much better here. And I think she could be a west end star she just needs some training.

  • @evilmushrooms

    well maybe it was just that Sophie was more right for the part.

    The places of second, third and fourth mean the same anyway. They all got really far and should be proud of themselves. The winner is the one who gets to play the part at the end of the day.

  • @theoneandonlySS1995

    She's both, she has split personality dissorder. lol. kidding

    people see celebs or contestants or whatever you want to call them, differently.

    Some of the things she said on the show may have appeared arrogant to some people, others just take it it as a sweet natured joke.

    I think she's a nice person. I just didn't think she had a very good voice. She's better than me, but she sings out if tune. And that is actualy a problem in this line of work.

  • I kind of love both their voices in this. Emilie's got such a lovely tone to her voice on the higher notes and when they sing together they sound amazing! And Sophie's voice is just amazing, end of story. Right one went home but neither of them were without talent :) ♥

  • both of them had amazing voices

  • Please don't say anything bad about Sophie! She is my idol & I've got a fan account for her & I've spoken to her (over twitter :L) & she is a lovely person very talented & a great role model, thanks :)

  • @evilmushrooms i agree with you, sophie was my least favoritve, i thought emilie was getting better, sophie defo shoudlve been the one of the first ones to go, i totally agree with you when you say she had poor technique and also her dancing was pretty lazy. she has a nice voice but thats it.

  • they both sang well in this, this song suited emilie, sophie shouldve gone the week after this, at this stage in the comptetition they were both my least favorite :/ this is one of the best versions of this song ive heard

  • @flamgirla35 How can you say that? Sophie was one of the best singers. You must be deaf to say that Sophie is a crap singer! She deserved to have won the role of dorothy ! How dumb are you?

  • @TheJasmin9876 i never said she is crap, all the girls are amazing, sophie is just not my favorite, she is very talented and i do like her a lot, i just prefered some of the other girls more like Lauren, Steph and Jessica, sophie does have a beautiful voice dont get me wrong, she just didnt have a spark for me :/

  • @flamgirla35 I agree 100% with everything you said

  • Look at the jugs on Sophie!

  • @drakason err... can you stop talking about her like that? thanks.

  • @maddimags No.

  • Look at the tits on Sophie!

  • Why are they smiling? Do they not know what this song is about? It's such a sad song.

  • @Madrcaze26 its only emily whos smiling

  • I really don't like Emilie!

    She has a weird voice, and her teeth really, really annoy me :@

  • @thebigsaunders hahaha yeah I hate her teeth too it's all I can focus on

    At least it blocks out her voice!

  • this is my fave song :-)

    sophie is amazing<3 she should have won!

    emilie sings crap:-(

  • Emilie sang better than Sophie in my opinion, Emilie put a lot more acting in her singing than Sophie who just sings with a blank face. Anybody can sing with a little help.

  • emilie sounds like a sheep giving birth when she sings

  • @OTHsmallvillefan i bet shes better than u

  • @juicyjade33 well yea i am tone deaf- but i think anyone can tell if someone is out of tune judging by my thumbs up im not the only one who thinks so

  • @OTHsmallvillefan yeah well u might not be but ya being silly about it coz she is a good singer anyway she is just go a different voice from all the other girls and u might not be the only one but judjing by othere peple alot of people like her too and i dont think your much better

  • @juicyjade33 sorry sweetie i think it was proven she couldnt sing- the relief when she was voted off was great- i mean loads of people couldnt believe she was still in sorry but its true bye bye sweetie and give up defending her you just make yourself look stupid because you dont even have one thumbs up clearly kiss kiss

  • @OTHsmallvillefan shut the fuck up dont sweetie me i am glad sophie stayed in as she is my cuz but emilie is a much better singer then you you fucking wankerr she should have stayed in she is much better than bronte n amy and stuff she had a strange voice okay ya bastered

  • @juicyjade33 loool muah x

  • @juicyjade33 i think you should shut the fuck up tbh. Emilie was NO WAY better than Amy and Bronte (or most of the other entrants) she SUCKED. She can dance... but she CANNOT sing for her life - have you not watched this video?!

  • @22djw92 yeahh i have watched it actually k, dick ead. i t think she was better hen bronte but she was so much better than amy by farr!!!! and she CAN sing for her life

  • @OTHsmallvillefan gosh harsh! mind u i did laugh

  • i think emelie should have gone first

  • Why did emile get more lyrics to sing? :/

  • "insert coin"!! ah ah ah

  • @susanapt wots that ment to mean?

  • I thought this was Emilie's best ever performance, and her acting was great. Still, her voice just isn't strong enough for the competition, but based on this sing-off alone I would have saved her over Sophie.

  • weirdly IMHO this is the best Emilie had sung in all the live shows as well as in group 5 performance. she actually sang quite well, and wasn't really out of tune 4 any of it. the plus side 4 Emilie is i personally think she put more emotion, and acted this song better than sophie. but on consistency thruout whole comp Sophie definately deserved 2 b saved by ALW.

  • i felt sorry for emilie but she was the worst 

  • @saturdaysfan101 she wasnt honestly. just extremely bad song choices

  • ha ha! that was so obvios! sophie is so amazing, i very nearly smashed the telly up when she didnt win. how did emilie get that far? she cant sing for toffee.

  • Sofie should have won Dorothy and Jenny should have gone before Emilie ! Jenny is not cute and sings way outta her range

  • I find emilies voice has a bit of self importance in it but i thought it was her best performance and theywere both beautiful.

  • I was glad that Sophie was in the bottom two, because that would mean that Emilie would defitnely go.

  • <3 sophie <3

    emilie FINALLY LEFT!!!

  • Love this song!!

    Sophie = Amazing!!

    Emilie - Best performance!

    Sophie Evans - Always my Dorothy! But back to my original point; I love this song :)

  • emilie was always bad

  • emilie has a very conceited look about her

  • 2:33, what's with Sophie's mouth???

  • @Pyfacefornever U THINK EMILIE WOZ BETTER THAN SOPHIE?! UR MENTAL!

  • SOPHIE TO WIN :L :D XX

  • Sophie is great

  • SOPHIEEEEEEEEEEEE to WIN :D xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • when they were singing this i could see what charlotte meant about emilie's tone of voice and some of the notes she sang were very pretty, like at 0.42 when she sings 'won a few more moments', it was really beautiful, if you know what i mean.

    there were moments of a great voice that with training could turn into lots of great moments in the song.

  • @ffmad13 If she sticks to the mid-range, but when she tries to go low, or too high, her voice strains.

  • so glad emilie went. i screamed with joy.

  • Probably the clearest sing off yet. Gotta give them both snaps for remembering their parts. I wonder how they decide which one goes first?

  • @andyourmother i think they decide by alphabetical order..look at the other sing off's and the girl who's name comes first always goes first

  • Sophie is sooo good and she would make a brilliant Dorothy.

    Sophie or Danielle to Win :D

  • I've only just realised what a beautiful voice Sophie has; I havn't noticed her before really... I hope she does well :)

  • I have no idea how Emilie lasted so long in the competition.

  • sophie is soooo good :D

  • I really didn't like EMilie's voice, I thought it always sounded a bit out, but she was improving rapidly and I think she does have a good career ahead. sad about stephanie going. and Jenny

  • They both sang really well in this but they should have switched parts since Sophie was singing the traditionally alto parts even though Emilie's voice is much lower

  • @Goodytrushoes Who sings which part is determined by the order they went in in terms for performances, so Emilie had to go first because she performed before Sophie :)

  • Does Sophie speak welsh?

  • I love Sophie :D

  • emilys shite

  • they seem to like giving them "I know them so well" to sing ---probably because Webber's friend Tim Rice wrote the lyrics for it (and it's a wonderful duet probably one of the best in musical theatre)

  • @Peadarisback and Andrew himself composed the music!!!

  • @WiwerGoch um no he didn't! Benny Anderson and the other guy (can't remember his name) from ABBA wrote the music to chess ---Rice wrote the lyrics.

    Andrew was working on Phantom at the time of Chess's stage preview

  • @Peadarisback oh sorry!!! I thought they always sang Andrew's songs in the sing offs! sorry!!!!

  • @WiwerGoch it's ok. No usually they don't sing Andrew's songs that much on the show but now and again...

  • @WiwerGoch No he didn't!!!

  • @Naoisevl who didn't do what?!

  • i live like 30 mins from sophie :O sophie to win :D

  • The right person went Emilie was rubbish! Her voice even cracked whilst singing over the rainbow! I like Sophie but DANIELLE TO WIN!!

  • don't give up voting for sophie on saturday!! she well and truly deserves her place in the semi finals !!!!!!!!

  • They both have obscenely good singing voices to be honest.

  • Emilie and Sophie sound so gorgeous together. And this also shows just how good Emilie is.

    Her best performance by a mile.

  • I know this is going to make me very unpopular, but if I'm honest, Emilie was nothing more than an average singer, and from week to week showed this. Her head voice gave a sweet sound, but her chest voice was sharp and almost harsh on the ear. She was the 'wild card' for a reason.

  • @WannabeRetro i agree - i didnt like her but i like Sophi but just not as Dorathy

  • @1stMaleElphaba I like Sophie, but she's not one of my favourites. I think Danielle is the most Dorothy-like, I would like her to win. (And by the way, I LOVE Wicked :') )

  • this was a great way for emilie to sign off. she did herself proud.

  • Sophie your so much like your mother . We are all routing for you babe give them all you got tonite babes. Go Sophie !!!!!!!!!! Welsh an Proud xxxx

  • A beautiful song and a beautiful performance.

  • This may be one of the best version of this song I've ever heard. It's beautiful.

  • really hope sophie improves. she is the perfect dorothy in my mind

  • Emilie was so much better in this particular sing off! However, in the actual weekly performances she was the weakest and deserved to go. Sophie will hopfully be next to go!

  • @princesslaura92 completely disagree

  • I wish Emilie had sang like this the whole time! I'd much rather listen to her vocals here than Sophie's. And Sophie is still a blank canvas whilst performing. Noo feeling there whatsoever.

  • @MamboJambo55 dont agree, emilie did do good in this but sophie did amasing and so much better in this and in performences

  • Emilie did really well here, especially with the harmonies.

  • They both proved themselves in this performence! And did amasing! Even Emilie! I was never a fan of her vocal but this performence proved that it was the songs she was given and did great! Sophie is AMASING! And im glad she was saved but they were both amasing and im sad to think they were the bottom 2. Saddest sing off so far

  • Not a huge fan of either of these girls and thought that Emilie being in the sing-off was definitely right although Sophie was up for debate in my mind because I could think of two others who probably had weak performances. Emilie is good, but she needs to learn vocal control which will come because she is still young and learning and this would be a good experience to have. She has a good voice though. Sophie, I don't like her, don't hate her. She's good at the musical numbers.

  • SOPHIE should never of been there :( she sang this song so amazingly :) xx

  • I didn't like Emillie so I'm glad she's gone, cause because of her being saved, good singers got knocked out!!!

  • Best performance from both I think. I hope Sophie goes from strength to strength now.

  • love this song so much... it suited sophie so much and i'm so glad she got saved... why she was in the bottom two i dunno!!!

  • This is unquestionably Sophie's best performance. Hopefully she will go from strength to strength and show you all exactly what she can do. When she's at ease she is amazing, she just needs them to pick her tidy songs. Well done! :-D x

  • why the hell are they just wearing bras you can pretty much see sophie's nipples

  • im not a very big fan of sophie or emilie, i think sophie looks the part but still has a lot of work to do vocally, although on this song i think she sang and acted it out very well and out of the two of them sophie 100% deserved to go through. I don't really think emilie is a very good singer, that's just my personal opinon. Stephanie or Danielle to win (:

  • lol xD andrew didn't need anytime at all to make his decision - he was just like "I'm going to save Sophie" amost immediately !

  • Oh.. like that.. Well great performance! A very sad song to sing in a sing off but nonetheless it was sang well!

  • Stephanie's face at 1:33 is so heart-broken! It made me want to cry too. (P.S... how do you put a link of a time of the video into a comment box?

  • sophie totally outsang emilie here, it was an easy decision for andrew to make

  • Sophie was absolutely amazing in the sing off. She shouldn't have been there in the first place, though. She's the only dorothy that displays the right amount of innocence and vulnerability to play the role. She's an absolutely amazing person, has been dreaming of this her entire life and really deserves this. C'mon Soph. We're all behind you and really believe you can do this! VOTE SOPHIE!!!

  • i'm pretty sure Andrew Lloyd Webber will already know which one or two of the girls he wants to be Dorothy, and really the public has little power over it.. because he can just keep saving the girl he wants to be Dorothy if she ends up in the sing off.

  • who's who ?

  • @orngng Sophies the one singing in tune!!!

  • : P

  • I was undecided when it came to this sing off. I honestly couldn't call it on these performances and I don't think ALW could neither and had to base it on other things.

    Emily seems to sing better with less choreography.

  • Comment removed

  • Sophie for the winner! she is the perfect dorothy!!!! :)

  • sophie shouldn't have been in the bottom two. shes my favourite by far. vote for her next week everyone!

  • @maddimags i know sophiee is the best

    she seems so relaxed on stage and seems such a good person to have around

    sophie is the best

  • It's very sweet how Sophie looks at Emilie at the end, like 'Are you ok?'

  • Id have loved to hear them sing it the other way round.

  • I didn't like Emilie's voice but she was actually really good in this but I think Sophie deserved to stay in though. I think Jenny should have been in the bottom 2 instead of Sophie though.

  • Going to miss emilie she really did prove how much she improved with this song

  • Sophie all the way!!
