Here’s what the coaches through of her performance tonight:

• Jennifer Hudson: “I just want to dd that dress to my closest. Everything Gavin said – I feel like you’re an artist already”
• Tom Jones: “I think it has all been said. Not much to add to that… I loved it”
• Gavin Rossdale: “The thing about this competition is finding individual artists. Clara you take a song, make it your own, you look and sound great, it’s really special. Will, is right, the red dress is awesome”.

The Voice viewers fume as contestant judged on appearance: 'It's the voice NOT the dress'

Susan Boyle (11 April 2009)

You'd be forgiven for judging the book by the cover when you meet 47-year-old Susan. Having never married, sharing a flat with her cat has given her a cheeky sense of humour, and even the judges were ready to write her off, until - that is - until she began peforming her rendition of 'I Dreamed a Dream' from Les Miserables...

Do They Know It's Christmas? (2004 version)

BAND AID 20 (Wikipedia)

"Do They Know It's Christmas?" (azlyrics) [Chris Martin:] It's Christmastime, there's no need to be afraid At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade [Dido:] And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime [Robbie Williams:] But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun [Sugababes:] There's a world outside your window And it's a world of dread and fear [Fran Healy:] Where the only water flowing [Fran Healy & Sugarbabes:] Is the bitter sting of tears [Fran Healy & Justin Hawkins:] And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom [Bono:] Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you [Will Young & Jamelia:] And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime The greatest gift they'll get this year is life [Ms Dynamite & Beverly Knight:] Where nothing ever grows No rain nor rivers flow [Group of ten and Joss Stone:] Do they know it's Christmastime at all? [Tom Chaplin (Keane):] Here's to you [Justin Hawkins (Darkness):] Raise a glass for everyone [Dizzee Rascal:] Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived If the table was turned would you survive

[Busted:] Here's to them [Justin Hawkins (Darkness):] Underneath that burning sun [Dizzee Rascal:] You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless Give a little help to the helpless [Joss Stone & Justin Hawkins:] Do they know it's Christmastime at all? [Tom Chaplin:] Feed the world [Tom Chaplin & Chris Martin:] Feed the world [Tom Chaplin & Chris Martin & Sugababes:] Feed the world [Tom Chaplin & Chris Martin & Sugababes:] Feed the world [Everyone in full chorus line.] Feed the world Let them know it's Christmastime again - [repeated] [Group of ten:] Feed the world [Everyone in full chorus line.] Feed the world - [repeated to end] [Joss Stone ] [Ad libs over outro]
