Ashley's pitch was bizarrely off, especially at the beginning. Something about her voice (and her acting) always seemed weird to me, though. I was never a big fan of either of these girls, though. Francesca's performance style bothered me because she always did the same squinting and head-shaking no matter what she was acting.
what the devil does ashley do with her arms at 1:54?! Kinda .........flimsy move?! Dont anyone have a go at me, here, Im just wonderijng, compared to Frans move, forward, I know u move ur arms, but it kinda reminded me like she was about to infloat like a hot air ballon?! :P :P I dunno why it jus makes me giggle. xxx xx
francesca was better by far, ashley was too cocky by far and i couldnt stand her. this is one of my favourite songs ever i think francesca did it better
she has a beautfil smile doesnt she? so pretty, and she uses her beautiful smile to its advantage and comincate the message of the song to the audience,.but quite frankly, The lord is off his rocker, cos Fran beat Ashley hands down here, there was no question.the quailty and pitching and everything bout Frans performnace was soo much more enjoyable to watch!!! xxxxxx
He really made the wrong decision here. If he had kept Fran, then Keisha and Fran would have been in the following singoff and then the survior of that one would be in next one against Rachel/Sarah. Either way, Sarah would have been in the final, if he had got rid of Ashley now. Hope you can follow what i was saying.
I think ALW is great but what was he thinking of sending Francesca home after this sing off? One must wonder whether the TV boys have some influence, regional voting etc. I too hope that Fran makes it, I'd pay good money to watch her belt some tunes out.
I actually love this. WE LOVE YOU FRAN! She looks so much more comfortable in her own performance and her vocals are a hell of alot better than Ashleighs!! Hope to see you one day Fran, Your bloody amazing!!!!!!! xx
she was wonderful indeed. I'm pretty sure ALW did it because he wanted to get rid of the rumours about Fran only being there because of Denise, and that you could only win if you're a proffesional. Don't get me wrong - Fran was always my favourite, so I don't think it's right, but I think that's why he did it. She should have been saved though!
Ashley's voice was something that could be worked on, however Fran's pitching was always a problem, also Andrew probably took into consideration the opinion of the panel who had all given Ashley brilliant comments all evening.
I'm sorry but how can ALW say that he doesn't rly rate Ashley's voice and then save her. Fran has an amazing voice. She should have been in the final with Jodie and Sarah.
francesca would have made the best nancy out of all of the nancy's in the series-casting wise anyway-she just fits. Perfectly. I love the final three nancy's but they just dont fit nancy like she did. Sad really-waht was andrew thinking of not choosing her over ashley.
The fact that Fran went before Ashley is ridiculous. Seeing as this was Fran's second sing off, maybe she just didn't have the support. But her voice is amazing, she could have easily played Nancy.
The song's not that simple if done correctly. There are a lot of nuances in the notes and the pacing can be tricky. However, Francesca was definitely better.
Both Ashley and Fran were great, though personally, i thought that Fran should have been saved. Dont understand ALW at all saving ashley after saying he didn't rate her voice :S makes no sense really. Possible tactical voting thinking ashley will not be in the competition for that much longer?. Good luck to all the girls tho.

Away you go. Ashley should def have been saved. She is much more expressive in this, she uses hand movements, she looks up when Fran sings about the flare up in the sky. She was the right choice 100% and ALW knows it. Not to save a fave later on either but so she can win him over in the upcoming weeks.
Sad that Fran is out as I would have had Sam, Sarah or Keisha in the bottom. Sam shouted through the tv, Sarah had a black dress onto appear to have changed and Keisha just done nothing for me
I'm an Ash fan and as much as it pains me to say it I think she should have gone. I think that its all tactics by him so that if it were Ash and one of his faves in the bottom he could save a fave- and after what he said about Ash she is not his fave by a long stretch- it just annoys me that Fran was a pawn in his game because she was brilliant too. Heres hoping she gets the recognition she deserves.
I think you're right, that "Fran was a pawn" as you put it, and that Ashley is a !rook! ALW is saving for later...anything to protect Queen Rachel! I know they have a show to make but it isn't fair, messing with these girls' lives. Have you seen Francesca's post-show interview? It's heartbreaking.
i agree 100%. poor fran had to suffer this week who will be next? although i've never been a huge ashley fan, i also feel sorry for her because she will get booted off when she doesn't stand a chance against alw preffered 'nancy' of the week. hopefully things will turn out good for fran because she has a great deal of experience as a supporting cast member, so maybe now we will see her as a leading lady. i certainly hope so anyway.
Thanks for uploading this : ) The BBC doesn't seem to want to upload it complete, conveniently cutting off Ashley's most shakey, off-key notes. Francesca shone in this performance and I'm still in disbelief that ALW sent her home. BRING BACK FRAN!!!
People are saying Frnacesca's ugly. I find her a lot brighter,prettier than Ashley. Ashley's not got a bright, expressive face. Francesca has. And yes, she shakes her head too much. But that habit can be overcome. Bring her Back!! Now!!
Yep!! And Andrew soundeed, from his comments on Ashley, that he wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible! I didn't see the results last night as I was wathcing "His Dark Materials" This came as such a big shock!! Can't belive he didn't save Francesca
i agree, though i think there was so much pressure to get rid of her becuase people suspecting it being a fix becuase denise and fran worked together.
Still gonna miss her, i love lsitening to her voice.

Francesca was outstanding in this performance. Her voice could fill up the West End with beautiful sound.
Whereas Ashleigh
couldn't hit one note, you could hear her speaking and whispering the high notes. it sounded awful. Sorry i don't rate her voice either.
