And one contestant waiting in the holding [Dm] room knows exactly [A] how much it means to get a yes today.
My name is Alexandra, I'm 19 and I'm from London.
Three years ago, Alexandra got down to the final [Db] seven in Louis's [Gbm] category.
From when I met first Alexandra, I just felt I [D] wasn't seeing the real Alexandra.
I felt there was something [B] missing for me.
But Louis sent her home.
You're going home.
[Dm] [E] Right now, I just think [Dm] everything in my life [E] has just collapsed.
[Dm]
Leaving Alexandra devastated as she missed [A] out on a place in the live finals.
Being on the X Factor the last [Dm] time, it was hard because when I didn't make it through, [A] it really broke me down.
It's been three years and only now has Alexandra found the strength to come back and try again.
I'm feeling a lot [Dm] of pressure at the moment.
I'm more nervous [A] than I was three years ago.
I'm [Gbm] hoping that the judges [E] will see a change in the past [D] three years and believe the change.
Now's the time.
[Ebm] Thank you very much.
[B] It would mean the world to me if I got through because it means so much to [D] me to be back here and show everyone [E] what I've done in three years.
I've worked really hard to [Dm] better my voice so I really want [A] to show that.
Hello.
We know [Dm] you, right?
You know me from three [N] years ago.
She came to Dublin.
She was in my home.
She was nearly through.
I didn't pick her.
Do you really want this badly?
I want this so badly.
Words are indescribable how much I want this.
I've learned a lot in the last three years that I've been away and growing up as a person.
Okay.
Off you go.
A few stolen moments is all that we share.
You got your family and they need you there.
Though I try to resist being last on your list.
But no other man's so I'm still for you.
Thank you.
I've just got to ask [A] Louis, what did you think?
I thought you were [Dm] amazing.
Absolutely amazing, Alexander.
In every sense, I think you're world class.
Look at her.
[A] She's like a diva now.
She's fantastic.
[Dm]
[A] It's just you.
[Dm] [A] This means so much to me.
You don't understand.
[Dm] I was [A] just blown away.
I think you're [Dm] amazing.
I've got [A] goosebumps.
Thank you so much.
You were born to sing and you're absolutely gorgeous.
Thank you very much.
Thank you so much. Danny?
It was amazing.
[Gbm] Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Well, Alexandra, I [Dbm] thought Louis made one of the [D] most stupid decisions
because how rare is it [B] for a young girl like you in this country
to walk in and be able to sing like that?
[A] You've got a great personality.
Thank you so much.
The best audition [Dm] I've heard today.
Oh my God, thank you.
And you know what, Alexandra?
I don't even think we've heard the best of you by a mile.
Louis, yes or no?
[Ebm] [Ab] 100% [Ebm] yes.
Cheryl?
It's not even a [Ab] question in my head.
100% yes.
Danny?
Yes.
Alexandra?
We'll see you in the next round.
[Db]
[Eb] [Bbm] [Ebm]
She's in a good [Ab] space.
I love her.
Wow.
I just am so grateful.
Just so nobody understands what this [Ebm] means to me.
[Eb] It's been an emotional end to the day
and [Ab] there's one girl the judges can't stop thinking about.
Alexandra [Ebm] was my favourite of the day.
She [Ab] was made for her.
She's got something [Gb] special.
[Ab] Definitely.
I can't believe
