agree. i have heard this song by abba before and after this perfomance. this was the best performance. just saara and piano. bravo!! thank you anthony!!
Surely, how much can this girl rise??? She hits the notes to the STRATOSPHERE!!!! And did the Arena still have an roof on the top, or did Saara just blow it away??? SHE COMPLETELY BLOW ME AWAY WITH THIS!!!
Saara deserves to win this year's X Factor hands down. Not only is she a great singer. She's a unique artist who brings something different each week. Imo, the best vocal performance from this season. She's a star!
+Laurie Tawyodh But this show is bias with Emily. They kept giving her the pimp spot. Like she always have the last or second to last singing spot it's unfair. Matt got the death AGAIN last night. And Saara comes 2nd. I like Emily but it pisses me off that the producers kept being unfair!!
Saara you brought tears to my eyes with your absolutely wonderful performance. Even if I was a true Abba fan at the time they were active they could not manage that! The most beautiful song I ever heard >3
It makes me emotional thinking how far she's come and how incredibly proud I am of her❤️ I hope she gets through this week, I don't know what I would do if she didn't, she needs to be in the final! She's a queen and she proves it every week❤️
First performance where the backing track wasn't too loud ... and this was the result. She was now able to reveal her whole range and nuanced voice. Such purity.
Which makes you wonder why the production kept foot on the brake with her all this time.. Surely they must´ve known they were drowning out her voice. I could barely hear her during the Titanic song. Was she considered that big of a threat to their end game lineup?
Honey G must have a great career ahead of her in Russia. I can easily imagine all the Olgas, Borises and Volodjas swooning over Honey's hand gestures and sexy hip movements while she's rapping to Putin, the god of the Russkies in Kreml...
Saara is a complete artist ... she sings, she dances, she represents. It has a super powerful and extremely tuned voice. She certainly deserves to win this competition.
Saara is a professional performer. Incredible range and gusto in her voice. she's in the pocket and phrasing is flawless. Powerful - clear winner takes it all.
Agnethe also did this song effortlessly, but her sustained high notes got a bit nasal, while Saara's voice stayed pure and open throughout. What a voice. Put away the onions!
this was the last nail. she should have won. no more tears, my heart will go on, the winner takes it all, bohemian rhapsody ( simply the best duet i have ever heard) and last i didn't know my own strength. all these perfomances are worldclass and also the very best in this competition. i don't understand how anyone could pass her. ONE WORD: BRILLIANT!!! BRAVO!!!! one more thanks to you anthony. great job.!
I love this permormance so much! I think Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus are proud of this version of Saara. Saara is a beautiful and wonderful talent. I love Saara so much!
Thank you Anthony for always staying up to date for all of us outside of the U.K.!! I'm here in Maryland in the US and I hate the fact I can't contribute and vote towards all these amazing acts!! I think the four finalists ALL will go somewhere with music in the long run. My vote if I could vote from the US would always go to Saara first. And 5 after midnight second. But all four of these acts are so talented. Honey G will even probably get a deal of some sort because of her personality and how fun she is. Either way I'm happy with the four finalists and they all deserve it. But I think that Saara would be the one that could sell out some seriously amazing shows and concerts given her talent and how well she sings vocally while moving around so much. She is a performer at heart for sure and I will stand behind her til the final!! But good luck to all--you all deserve to be here :)
That was beautiful. She finally managed to make the emotion she has shown in the sing offs to show in the actual performance. Saara has the right stuff.
Wow! - was not expecting Saara from Finland to go this far, however, her choice of songs are perfect to the core and its bringing out the best in her voice!! - she continue on this trend, she will win the whole thing - Go Saara from Finland!! xx
Those 21 dilslikes ?? Seriously ?? Do you guys know what it takes to deliver this kind of performance ?? This is the best perfomance ever in X Factor UK till date. I hope she wins & must win !!! She's already a winner !!
She has the greatest voice the world has ever witness no one before and after her can surpass her talent, even i am from the other side of the world the philippines iam not too much in to music, but when i hear her voice i hear an angel, sorry to tell u sarah u dont need x factor, x factor needs u,
Wepay Canlas. You comment is wonderful. I'ts great to hear, that Saara and her voice means so much to you. Also Saara means much to me. Saara is friendly to everyone, a happy and positive person. I love her. Watch the Eurovision Song Contest in May 2018. Saara sings there, she is a representative of Finland. 43 countries takes part in a competition. Saara is my favorite, thumps up!
she also doesn't look like she takes things for granted. I feel like the other contestants except from 5am would let fame change them. Idk is that just me
I didn't think she was a good wild card choice and when Sharon chose her for the live shows I was in disbelief. But after watching her first sing off I was impressed,then her second sing off and third. Wow. This girl is hitting every note while doing choreography,she has faced more adversity than all the other contestants combined and still shows passion in every performance , it will be a shame if doesn't win.It would make an epic comeback story.
There are only 2 contestants in the whole X-Factor franchise who are on another league when they participated. First is Dami Im from X-Factor Australia 2013, then Saara Aalto. Their performances are just awesome. :)
if Sara was from UK she would surely win.people who appreciate real talent and pure vocals should bypass their choice from UK and give this lady what she desreves.I am a song writter but I do it for my own pleasure.She is pure in such vocalist talent way above tbe rest on this show,yes some are entertaing,some can sing great and have the GQ looks,but this lady is far beyond their singing ranges.
After Saara was done singing this song at the judge's house, Robbie turned to Sharon & said he was falling asleep like Saara was boring! I'll never forget Robbie's reaction! I lost all respect for Robbie after he made that comment about Saara! Robbie is just an average singer & he's certainly no match to Sarra's outstanding voice!
It's so funny to watch these videos over and over again and notice small details.. like Dermot almost always try to give hug or kiss to Saara.. And typical Finn habit she thanks and just walk away..😊
Saara has completely package .. whatever her journey on xfactor U.K. .. if she would be the winner , the show would spread a worldwide attention.. and for the next , great singers all over the world would see the Xfactor UK as the best singing competition
Give her a good song and she'll make it even better. I'm glad that she's still in the competition. The other acts feel and sound a bit flat after Saara has sung. They're not bad, but she is the only one that I'm always eagerly looking forward to see.
this song is perfect for her. she has done so many singing competitions in here finland and ALWAYS ended up 2nd and the winner have taken it all. im afraid of it will happen again
This week's performance goes close with me compared to her audition song but I've come to a final conclusion that this performance was her best so far. Go Saara and may your voice remain as angelic as it has been throughout this competition. I love you from the bottom of my heart and you will sail far seas with your voice. I can't wait. :)
Guys vote for Saara next week! I dont need to know what she is going to sing, because will be great, but vote for her, because I want see her in the duo with Celine Dion! Please Guys, vote for Saara because of this duo!!!
This just proves that she is not just a singer or performer, but a true artist.
Honey G is just from another planet
Icyruios
Lol
agree. i have heard this song by abba before and after this perfomance. this was the best performance. just saara and piano. bravo!! thank you anthony!!
My favorite Saara performance. It was just her and the piano. No dancing to tricks. It was just her. It was great!!
Exactly!
BEST PERFORMANCE ON THE X FACTOR 2016 BY FAR
A standing ovation even before her performance finishes. Doesn't only Great Artists create that atmosphere in people's heart? Gorgeous 🙏🏾
This woman is seriously so talented.
Surely, how much can this girl rise??? She hits the notes to the STRATOSPHERE!!!! And did the Arena still have an roof on the top, or did Saara just blow it away??? SHE COMPLETELY BLOW ME AWAY WITH THIS!!!
Wow, her voice and that song was divine. I had chills!!
Saara deserves to win this year's X Factor hands down. Not only is she a great singer. She's a unique artist who brings something different each week. Imo, the best vocal performance from this season. She's a star!
LaVel M it should be her and matt in the final
+Laurie Tawyodh But this show is bias with Emily. They kept giving her the pimp spot. Like she always have the last or second to last singing spot it's unfair. Matt got the death AGAIN last night. And Saara comes 2nd. I like Emily but it pisses me off that the producers kept being unfair!!
I agree she deserves to win, but the reality is that Brits will not allow a foreigner to win their show.
I know but i think she will be in final 3 her voice us weeker than there's
Salkkarituploader i always do i vote. For mattt love him. X x x
The only artist who deserves to win this season.
This is beautiful. What a wonderful version. This woman is the only one Who deserves To win this show
What a beautiful version of the song. I would listen this thousand times over...
Saara you brought tears to my eyes with your absolutely wonderful performance. Even if I was a true Abba fan at the time they were active they could not manage that! The most beautiful song I ever heard >3
The queen sitting on her throne singing ''the winner takes it all'' flawlessly makes my day.
Finally the whole set in one video of high quality. Thanks Anthony.
It makes me emotional thinking how far she's come and how incredibly proud I am of her❤️ I hope she gets through this week, I don't know what I would do if she didn't, she needs to be in the final! She's a queen and she proves it every week❤️
she didddddddddddddd yessss queeeeennnn
Chander
Absolutely FANTASTIC performance!! Saara just has to win this whole shit, she just has to!
she delivered each word with the perfect emotions. FANTASTIC!
1 year later and this stuff still gives me chills. Her singing is god damn flawless.
First performance where the backing track wasn't too loud ... and this was the result. She was now able to reveal her whole range and nuanced voice. Such purity.
Which makes you wonder why the production kept foot on the brake with her all this time.. Surely they must´ve known they were drowning out her voice. I could barely hear her during the Titanic song. Was she considered that big of a threat to their end game lineup?
The world is full of bad singers and equally bad sound engineers. They just don't know what to do when they meet somebody who actually can sing
Honey G must have a great career ahead of her in Russia. I can easily imagine all the Olgas, Borises and Volodjas swooning over Honey's hand gestures and sexy hip movements while she's rapping to Putin, the god of the Russkies in Kreml...

Saara Aalto 💥👆💥
The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory

When I saw you at the piano I was thinking 'You are the female equivalent of Freddie Mercury. 'You going to win this show.
Amazing performance.. hope she wins it..rooting for the underdog!
I listen this so many times love it love her
Those 21 dilslikes ?? Seriously ??
Do you guys know what it takes to deliver this kind of performance ??
This is the best perfomance ever in X Factor UK till date.
I hope she wins & must win !!!
She's already a winner !!
Finland, Sweden and Norway. These countries are so close and close-knit. I think ABBA would be so happy that Saara did this song justice......
i wish people can see the power of her voice!
Please vote for Saara!! She's amazing! Her voice is so mesmerizing! I love her! ❤️
Wow..as i said before she good giving soul in music.... listen with earphone give me gush. congrate Saara.

She has the greatest voice the world has ever witness no one before and after her can surpass her talent, even i am from the other side of the world the philippines iam not too much in to music, but when i hear her voice i hear an angel, sorry to tell u sarah u dont need x factor, x factor needs u,
Wepay Canlas. You comment is wonderful. I'ts great to hear, that Saara and her voice means so much to you. Also Saara means much to me. Saara is friendly to everyone, a happy and positive person.

How beautifully written. I'm in tears for your words.
I got goosebumps. for real though, she's amazing and I love her personality because she's different and doesn't care
she also doesn't look like she takes things for granted. I feel like the other contestants except from 5am would let fame change them. Idk is that just me

What a wooooooooooooooooow, I've been watching this performance since last and I can't help it. My best x factor performance soo far. Onnea.

But after watching her first sing off I was impressed,then her second sing off and third. Wow.

Well done Saara! You amaze me every week. 'Sylvia's Christmas Song' or 'Christmas has Come' are my personal favourites for next week.
if Sara was from UK she would surely win.people who appreciate real talent and pure vocals should bypass their choice from UK and give this lady what she desreves.I am a song writter but I do it for my own pleasure.She is pure in such vocalist talent way above tbe rest on this show,yes some are entertaing,some can sing great and have the GQ looks,but this lady is far beyond their singing ranges.
When she sang it at judges houses, it was amazing. But this was spectacular
After Saara was done singing this song at the judge's house, Robbie turned to Sharon & said he was falling asleep like Saara was boring! I'll never forget Robbie's reaction!
I lost all respect for Robbie after he made that comment about Saara!

Give her a good song and she'll make it even better. I'm glad that she's still in the competition. The other acts feel and sound a bit flat after Saara has sung. They're not bad, but she is the only one that I'm always eagerly looking forward to see.
