It depends if they want a Showman who may become a good lead singer or if they want a good lead singer who may become more of a showman.

If they want the former it will be down to Lukas and Dilana. If they want the latter it'll be Magni or Toby.

Personally the best vocalist on the show and pretty much week after week is Magni. You can tell he has played a lot of bigger shows in his homeland. He doesn't do the theatrics of slapping hands with the crowd etc....things that at a rock concert you do not usually see unless it's the last song of the night. He paces the stage and delivers a strong performance each and every song he sings. The perfect lead singer for a serious band that doesn't want to rely on theatrics....though it is a tommy lee band so theatrics is what you get and what he wants I think.

On Lukas. I don't know what it is about the show but if look for Rise Electric on youtube you'll find several songs. Taped with a cheap camara but the mix is so much better than what we get in TV land. Easily understandable and watching those clips on youtube i think you can see why he has lasted this long and has a very good shot at winning. I personally think his stripped down version of Headspin that is on youtube completely kicks the butt of the version he did the last two nights.

Dilana...I'm over her. She impressed the first couple of weeks. Sounds at times like Marianne Faithful but not neraly as distinctive or as good but most of the time like Sass jordan. And though I don't particularily care for Sass Jordan her voice is so much more dynamic than what Dilana has to offer vocally. The fact they didn't boot her when she couldn't keep her mouth shut and her whole "woe is me" act the last couple of weeks indicates to me that they are seriously considering her and one other.

Toby...you know I'm not sure anyone has seen the true Toby. He's a smart guy and early on he learned what SauvePorn wanted and he has shaped his image around it. Every week his appearance begins to get a little more Lukas like as does his attitude. Perhaps it is the real him but he just seems to be trying to fit a mould instead of being himself. He just doesn't seem to be distinctive in any way shape or form from some of the better local band guys that while very good are not good enough to get a deal.

It's doubtful I would ever pay to see the band play for 2 hours with any of these singers. But I'd most likely pay to watch Lukas. The guy has great potential to put on a great show and do good things musically. I would not pay that much to see Dilana or Toby for 2 hours. Magni perhaps as you'd be guaranteed a fine vocal performance from him.
