X Factor Final 2006
Not a song that I am familiar with but.....
A shaky start for Ray in "a moment like this"...... did not inspire confidence at all....seems to me that he started out of tune with the backing track.
Doesn't seem like a great track to me overall...it is in no way memorable, but then it is the same track that both artistes need to sing.
Leona starts with quite a different feeling to her version.... a Whitney style at first impressions.....
Definitely more emotion and style with this performance compared to a rather bland Ray performance.
I you took my advice to bet Ray into second place via BetFair but to go no further via my earlier tips, then I think that you are now a winner.
This was a difficult track to sing and needed some character and interpretation to make it memorable. For me, Leona made it her own in a way that Ray just could not accomplish....probably just some immaturity and inexperience.
I think we will hear of both artistes in the future, but for now Leona walks it for me.
The late betting suggests that Leona has it (at Decimal 1.13 collapsed in from decimal 1.30), but after I'am a Celibrity, I wouldn't count on anything... I hope that you spread your bets per my advice here.
22:14 Does someone know something? Leona's odds are drifting...out to 1.18. Maybe the votes coming in are not completely going Leona's way, but I think that she has done enough.
Although I have advocated that Ray commands the grannie vote, I don't think that is quite enough in the final.
22:22 Well done Leona!! annoyed that I am that I could not risk all on her.
Congratulations to all those followers here that followed me getting the result perfectly on song with Leona first and Ray second - it was exactly as I called it two-three weeks ago.
