I can’t help but think this would’ve been a good song for Daniel. Angel you are an amazing singer and you have got these fantastic vocals but this is a song you really should not have touched. This song is an anthem about how you should just go out and live your life and not have any regrets but when you sang this version I felt like it lost the power of the message and the power of the song as well. You sang the song great but I just feel like the song shouldn’t be slowed down like this.
Audio Vixen
I was really feeling this. Kev seems to know exactly what to do with you. I am glad you took my criticism on last week and didn’t focus on just one member of the group and focused on all of you together as a group. You could feel this great vibe as you were doing the song and how your vocals were all harmonizing together fantastically. Nice job.
Vino Alan
Vino this was great it kept to your soul element at the start of the song and then went into your fantastic rock skills in the second half! You just nailed the song again and you were brilliant as per usual! Fantastic Vino.
Jade Ellis
Hmmm I am not sure about this Jade. All your other songs so far I have been impressed by and although I pointed out the small flaws, just because I want you to go really far, they were still good. This just didn’t feel right for you and wasn't good for you. I give props to your mentor for going with this unexpected choice but I feel like it just isn’t you Jade. With the fanbase you have on this forum though I do think you’ll be safe this week.
Sumera Espinel
This was a decent choice for you and was quite unexpected. You surprised me quite a bit because usually when people think Carly Rae Jepsen they think the cheesy call me maybe sing but luckily when she was 604 records she released better songs. This was a good choice and felt more like you than the previous performance last week.
Sumera, I wanted to take a risk so that you could prove to the other judges that you deserve to stay in the competition. That was upbeat and very quirky, which is where I believe you fit right at home. I would be sad if you left tonight, because you've got so much more to give. I am a very proud wildcard mentor tonight.
Mixed comments for Sumera, is her time on The Mix Factor up already?
Ready to close the show with a bit of class, it's our German winners Mrs. Greenbird singing Back To You by Greg Laswell ft. Elizabeth Ziman http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DlH3_Iyegs&feature=related Note: This song shows off their beautiful harmonies, it's a very emotional track but it shows that they're capable of slightly darker performances.
Mrs. Greenbird: I have been wanting to use this song for you since I chose you to be one of my acts, it's absolutely amazing, the vocals are stunning, the tones are stunning, the harmonies are stunning and it was absolutely perfect guys. You connect as performers on a really deep level and you blew the roof off the place tonight, it was an unbelievable performance, it just felt so different and I loved that it allowed you to somehow come out of the indie-folk genre temporarily and focus more just on the two of you as a duo and your connection with the song. It was dark but also very full of passion and I think you've exceeded all expectations you two!
Well guys, it has been a long night but what a turnaround and what a way to close the show. Last week wasn't really great for you but tonight you are back to where you were on the first show. It was indeed a beautiful and at times, haunting along with the harmonies, it was a brilliant performance indeed.
Guys again this was a great performance by you two and it keeps amazing me how week after week you keep coming back with a great performance. The only constructive criticism I can really say is that I think the male part of you two guys is so far proving himself more than the female part of you two which is slightly disapointing because both of you are great but the male so far has proved himself more. That’s the only criticism I can say because so far you have just been doing fantastic.
I will be honest guys this isn’t normally the type of group I would find myself liking, but after that performance I am stoked for you guys. Kev this better have been the song you mentioned that you were really proud of as it was amazing. I cannot wait to see what you will do with these guys in the next show now Kev.
That's it, the top fourteen have performed, and as always it's up to the DS public to decide what happens next.
As I've said before, tonight's show will feature another double elimination. The act at the bottom of the scoreboard will be eliminated automatically, while the acts in 13th and 12th place will face each other in the sing-off. It'll be the last double for a while, so save your favorites while you still can!
Here's a reminder of the acts that performed tonight:
Phuong And Rasmus: Are We Different (Priscilla Ahn)
Phuong: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3mFA-hVAxc
Male Cover: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kGRQL9EkdPY Note: The male cover is purely to show how a man sings it, Rasmus has a high-pitched voice so his vocals would be more similar to the original song, I know this is more downbeat but it has the same indie-pop feel and I think that the sweet vocals are perfect for them.
Audio Vixen: Hung To Dry (James Levy And The Blood Red Rose) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1Vs5hXFzSc Note: I've decided to go for something a bit folky, it has quite a psychadelic folk feel and would allow each of the singers to show off their vocals as well as harmonizing beautifully as they always do.
Mrs. Greenbird: Back To You (Greg Laswell ft. Elizabeth Ziman) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DlH3_Iyegs&feature=related Note: This song shows off their beautiful harmonies, it's a very emotional track but it shows that they're capable of slightly darker performances.
To vote, please rank all the acts that have performed tonight from 14 to 1, assigning 14 points to your favorite act, all the way down to just 1 point for your least favorite act. Mentors can vote as well, and they CAN vote for their own acts as well. After you've listed and ranked the acts, PM the list to me (EndOfSanity).
The lines will remain open until 20:40, with the results taking place at 20:45 on this thread. That gives you roughly one and and fifteen minutes to vote, so vote while there's still time!
Also, try your prediction skills at our Prediction Game again (details will be posted shortly)!
In addition to voting, please participate in the prediction game. This is compulsory for judges, and very much open to viewers as well!

PM me your predictions, and check back after the results to see the updated scoreboard.
Also, feel free to discuss the show here on this thread while you wait for the results!
The public have spoken tonight. We got quite a lot of votes today, and I can reveal not a single act was left without a very high ranking. The results are really close, with just one, two or three points between each place in general. Judges and viewers, I would prepare myself for the worst.

unclekevo and the groups
