    I liked the whole wild west vibe this performance gave me, but I'm not too keen on your voice. I don't think it's as unique or powerful as some of the ones we've heard before, and with more than 80 contestants waiting in the wings I don't think you'll make it very far if I'm being honest. It's a NO from me...

    Wow, the sheer emotion coming from that performance was enough to convince me to turn my chair around for you. You don’t have the best voice I have heard but the power and conviction between it really impressed me and I have to admit that I was really shocked by how well you were able to make the transition from the big notes to the more subtle parts of the song. – Yes

    At the start I was really not impressed and thought it was going to be a bad audition but when you stepped up and began to sing like no tomorrow I was really impressed. It was quite good and I think you did well but I don’t think I am the best mentor for you so its a no

    CONTESTANT 25:- Okay this show is about finding an unknown voice from across the globe, and while I have to applaud you for your power and emotion, I do wonder is that really something different you just did. You hit the power notes, however it felt the performance was just you leading upto them notes, there was no depth to the performance. It is a NO

    I must admit that when you started to sing I feared the worst, but luckily you managed to get better as the song advanced. I think one or two of the other judges will adore you and pick you, so at least you'll get through to the next round. However, I wouldn't be the right mentor for you, so it's a NO from me.

    You do have quite a classical soulful voice but there’s nothing wrong with simplistic vocal performances, I did feel a lot of emotion coming from that performance and once again, the power in your vocals really impressed me, I’m not sure who you are though I have a feeling I might recognize that voice, regardless, I’m pretty impressed. – Yes

    CONTESTANT 27:- I can see that this may cause friction with my fellow judges however to me, is that really the best song choice, was it really a unique vocal. Yes, you have soul in your voice, bit for me signing up for this show and creating it, I wanted to find the new voice, not a rehash of the past which quite frankly doesn’t come close to Aretha. I am searching for that extraordinary unique vocalist, and to me you’re not it, therefore it is a NO

    Pure class gospel singing. You have a great voice which is brilliant with both soft and powerful singing but with me I would have serious trouble mentoring you so for me its a no

    You have a beautiful voice, very suited to classical soul songs. However, I'm looking for something a bit more edge here. I'm not the best mentor for classical soul acts, so I'm going to let you go to one of my colleagues as they could do more with you than I could. I'm sorry, but it's a NO from me...

    I agree, but you're the perfect mentor for her so I chose not to add her to my team as I couldn't possibly top you on this one! :p

    You have a really good tone and I think there’s something pretty interesting about your vocals but for me, maybe it was the song choice, there was something a little off about that. I didn’t feel anything from it, it was just a good performance, I don’t think I’ll remember it in 5 minutes. – No

    CONTESTANT 32:- To me that was actually quite a flat performance, your voice was flat in many places, to me it was like an unoriginal pop vocal, lacking any sort of depth or emotion. I’m looking for that vocal to move me, if im totally honest that bored me, the song was really at one pace, and your voice was lacklustre, it is a NO.

    Your voice has this really nice indie pop vibe to it and is a voice that I really enjoy just sitting back and listening too. I could see you doing well in this competition with me as your mentor so I am going to say a big yes.

    I actually like your voice. I do agree with Barry though that you're a tad forgettable, but that shouldn't deter anyone from picking you. Under the right guidance, almost any act has the potantial to become something good, and I'm willing to take that risk with you. Sorry Jack, but things have just got a bit harder for you here: I'm saying YES.

    For a minute there Jack I thought you were about to secure yourself your second act but EoS has secured that Contestant 32 has now to enter the pitch phase of the competition.

    Keeping the ball rolling we move straight onto Contestant 34

    Ohhhhhhhhhh, it took me a while to get this but now I do get it, I know who this is and I’m glad that someone submitted your audition tape because you are a pretty great group, I love the way that the rapping fits effortlessly with the soulful, smooth vocals, really impressive performance! – Yes

    That was really good and I really like how you injected a lot of energy into the song and in a way made it your own. The singer sort of reminds me of Fergie and the rapper just has great flow in the group and when you’re together in creates a very upbeat and energy filled performance. Yes
