Sorry I don't think it was a fix but I agree it was a rubbish result. However, I didn't vote so I can't really comment!If you aim for the moon if you miss at least you will land among the stars!0

Just because the person you want to win doesn't win, it isn't a scam.0

I absolutely HATED Leah. Her voice was atrocious. Every time she sang she'd go through her whole vocal range once every other second. It was annoying, she was squeaky, and in the duet with Will.I.Am, she sounded like the Crazy Frog.
I was really glad she lost, although I hope someone slings her a box of Nutrisse so she an sort out her awful dye job.
I was pleased that Andrea won. She's who I voted for as she was just sweet, and a lovely singer, no bells and whistles, just a great voice0 -

completely agree with you but heres the but i just read somewhere that not all the text voting systems where working we will see over next few days what comes out but i suspect im right and not just because who i wanted to win it screams to me they have caused a 'shock result' like xfactor would in order to try to get ratings a stir and in the sunday newspapers.
time will tell but i still feel there have been issues.0 -
Just another MSE "It's a scam" (when it isn't) thread <yawn>
Leah has great range but not enough control over it yet. Hopefully a really decent voice coach will pick her up and give her the training she needs to use her instrument properly. If they do we'll hear from her again I'm sure.I Would Rather Climb A Mountain Than Crawl Into A Hole

will.i.am cost Leah- their joint performance was awful! He can't sing at all
i bet, a lot of people just didnt bother to vote (i never do) for Leah as it was see as definite she was going to win.'Children are not things to be moulded, but are people to be unfolded'0 -

I watched the final tonight and I personally thought that Andrea was best, so I voted for her. I'm pleased that she won. I don't think it was a scam.
I know that Leah was a favourite to win but Andrea's performance was excellent. She has a beautiful voice. She is The Voice.:cool:10 Dec 2007 - Led Zeppelin - I was there. :j [/COLOR]:cool2: I wear my 50 (gold/red/white) blood donations pin badge with pride. [/SIZE][/COLOR]Give blood, save a life. [/B]0 -
I liked the guy that went out first! I did enjoy the Will and Leah song, and expect it to be in the charts!£2 Savers club £0/£150

The duet killed her chances, although, TBH, I thought she was atrocious tonight. Andrea deserved to win.0 -
The only scam is the amount of peak tv time devoted to persuading viewers to part with their money in voting, without these money-raising votes these programmes wouldn't exist.0
