I'm looking for a Swedish translator, if anyone is interested, please email me.

The unexpected happened when Manda returned to the competition a day after she was eliminated from the show. In fact, Hey Mary was the act to receive the least amount of votes but the girls also got to stay in the competition. So that can only mean one thing, this week we will have a double elimination! I expect Manda to survive but my prediction for the girlband isn't so bright. One thing is certain though, with the added pressure of a double elimination, we'll be presented some incredible performances! ... It's time to face the music!

Recap and videos after the JUMP ...

Don't you worry child (Swedish House Mafia) - 7/10 - What a great song choice! Finally Orup gave Benny a cool current song. Last week's was good as well but this one is way better. The arrangement wasn't as good as the choice however, it took some of the epicness this tune has and neither was Benny's voice but that was expected cause this song requires some powerful vocals and Benny doesn't have them. But with that safe, this was by far Benny's best performance, he sang with conviction and finally he had a contemporary sound, it wasn't perfect but there was a lot of improvement in his voice and I've gotta give it to Orup for finally making something right for his act. He's most certainly safe tonight. - VIDEO



Eternal flame (The Bangles) - 6/10 - Poor girls must be under lots of pressure tonight after being technically eliminated last week. I'm sadly predicting they'll be going home so hopefully they fully enjoyed their swan song. This is an ok song for them, it fits their voices but I was hoping Marie'd give them a showstopper to save them from being sent home and it just didn't happen. They were on tune and their harmonies were pretty but the performance was once again a tad boring. Definitely not enough to save them. Bye bye Hey Mary. - VIDEO



Upside down (Diana Ross) - 6/10 - Will Andreas ever learn? With him it's one step forward, two backwards. Old fashioned song for little Awa, why can't he give her something current? Earlier in the show she sounded fantastic on 1D's song, so maybe she could sing that next week? Her voice was really good on this though but I'm not really a fan of this song nor I can see how can this fit into today's music scene. The arrangement worked a little, making this song a little less cheesy than it already is but the robot dancers were completely out of place, what was the point of that? - VIDEO



Fest på röda linjen (Malcolm B) - 7/10 - Another good performance from Malcom. He hasn't had a single week off and for that I applaud him. I do think last week's rap was a lot better but this one wasn't bad by any means. I'm still hoping he sings in English so I can finally understand what he says. - VIDEO



If I were a boy (Beyoncé) - 8/10 - She's back for revenge! Andreas said they've been focusing too much in the performance but now it's all about the voice. Expect her to be safe tonight and after this performance, she's not going anywhere for a while. I was hoping she was gonna sing "Domino", which we heard on her video and sounded so great but this was a great pick for her as well. The arrangement was really cool and it gave the song a revamped electronic sound, which is the route I could see Manda going. Her voice was spot on as well. She's here to stay! - VIDEO


Lemon tree (Fool's Garden) - 5,5/10 - Did anyone ever expect to listen to this song on a singing competition? I certainly didn't and I love this song. The staging looked the best it had for him though, that was a good move from Orup but not the choice of song. It wasn't for Alexander and it wasn't very current either. His voice left a lot to be desired as well, he hit some serious bum notes and went shrill a few times. At least it gave him a chance to play his guitar. I hope he picks his own song next week cause his journey has been misstep after misstep. - VIDEO



On the floor (Jennifer Lopez feat. Pitbull) - 6,5/10 - Not this song! I think Marie is incapable of picking a good song for them. The problem is that she picks songs that feature a rapper and most of them suck. She needs to pick a great song for Elli and then let Jeremie and Margime write their own raps for their next performance but she probably won't. Tonight's performance was ok, they're never bad, but definitely worse than "Wild Ones". Jeremie was the total star of it though, he's rapping was sick and his flow was great. Margime had enough sass which was shocking and Elli was a bit lost most of the performance though she was awesome towards the middle when she got a solo. By the way, why has JEM closed the show three times in a row? I get the love but three times? - VIDEO

I'm more than happy to see Oscar going home! He was the worst contestant since the very beginning and the fact that the teens love him helped him stay past his welcome. He won't be missed.
