JUDGES’ COMMENTS: LA said it was really, really good but also called it predictable. He said his concern is that he didn’t feel her usual passion and love for the song. Nicole said she loved the song and it’s perfect and fitting for the woman that Melanie has grown to be. She said Melanie is inspiring to all. Simon said it wasn’t karaoke unlike Marcus and that’s how you put your stamp on it and make it original. He called in bloody fantastic.
