Marvellous! Although I was quite sure that the judges were suffering from over hallelujahs. Lol.

This song is always a winner. If I can sing this song with my lousy voice to Angelina Jolie I am pretty sure I'd score, wouldn't I?

Interesting voice (technically) and she could make a career.

As her "interpretation" of Hallelujah is in question, it's disastrous, awful, mechanic, without any understanding, and full of Mariah-Carey-like voice stuff. Couldn't listen to it after 2 minutes.

I'd say it's the worse version I heard, beside Bono's (compared to these, I even like Bon Jovi's) - but I didn't hear the infamous Alexandra Burke so I can't judge.

Funny, IMHO it's a great interpretation, and I wouldn't say it's "awful, mechanic, without any understanding", on the contrary, I think it's understated and respectful of lyrics. It resembles more Alison Crowe then Mariah Carey.
I guess de gustibus....
