      @@quubed they didn't write their own songs; they came up with basic concepts, a writer wrote for them, and they were able to have some imput afterward if they wanted to change some bits. Willow was reportedly the most involved with the writing of her verse, which I think is why it both has her personal flair _and_ sounds ten times more professional than the other girls (Willow has previous music experience.)

I thought she would do a rock n roll song or something like her talent show but this is completely different! the song is so beautiful with such a lovely meaning and the fact that she dressed like a dragon fly which brought a lil bit of humour to it is so amazing.

    The best look of the top five performances and easily one of the two best performances. Lip-syncs don't always have to be campy with humorous gags. They can be artistic and dynamic like this one was. I do wish the song had been sung by someone with a stronger voice as the whole fighter vibe didn't hit because the voice wasn't right. I would have loved to have seen this as a full 3+ minute performance using Xtina's Fighter, the video of which includes a similar creature. And the song would have been fitting as Daya fought her way to the top five after initially being eliminated.
