Judges' Comments
- Randy: "Very interesting song choice. I think you did a pretty good job of it as Queen is really hard to sing. You hit the big notes but some of the smaller notes you didn't support well enough. It was pretty good."
- Paula: "I think to date this was your best performance. I disagree with Randy on one thing, I think the tenderness and softness of your natural voice shows the magic in you."
- Simon: "It was definitely better than last week but I'm still having issues with your massive lack of personality. You're like a robot when you sing and I can't get anything out of you. It's like The Stepford Wives. In your interviews you come on as a fun person and then you sing and it's all a bit gloomy and boring. You may be in trouble."
