Why do Americans love people like Tate so much? he would have gone home first week in our version...
Maybe he's their Christopher

Because he's country, country artists always do well on these shows.

And did anyone catch Cece last night? It was a good song choice, but Demi shouldn't have forced the Christina Aguilera arrangement on her. It should have related more to Patti LaBelle. My reason for that is she attempted to go for that high note (a belted G5) and she COMPLETELY missed it. It sounded horrendous.

The problem is that the US will forever back Country singers, and especially guys like Tate who they relate to.

What gets me is that we have seen acts such as this win reality shows before , only to fail miserably in the music industry. It seems a waste of a vote really, why vote someone whos not likely to make it in the industry over some one that is?

I don't get the publics thinking, if its purely down to the aww factor (in other words sympathy), then surely thats the wrong reason to vote?

Maybe im on another planet to everyone else here but shouldnt these shows be based on the voice and the talent,rather than any other factor?
Country singer Kevin Skinner won Americas's got talent in 2010

I think it's the "local boy done good" type thing. You see it in American idol winner with Scotty and recently Phillip Phillips. The demographic that listens to country music is quite a large one and it seems to have carried over to X Factor from Idol.

Really hope CeCe is safe but I doubt it Vino should go based on his performance but we all know he won't, I don't know why but America have an odd way of voting

My favourites yesterday were Paige (suprisingly), Carly and Fifth Harmony. Dont get the appeal for Tate and Vino to be honest.

There's no denying carly has a great voice but I don't know what it is but there's just something that leaves me cold inside/disconnected from her.

Paige and Cece were really good last night no doubt though that both of them will be danger with one of them going home if not both of them. Vino Tate and Emblem 3 were very poor but no doubt all three will be safe and probably in the top 4

How can CRS only be 13?!?!? HOW??????????? She is ridiculously good. I have to say as much as Britney isn't the best judge (tho she has been MUCH better this week), she is doing an amazing job with CRS and Diamond.

My rankings

1st - Tate (Had fun and enjoyed himself which is what the week was all about right?!?)
2nd - Carly Rose (Excellent voice but she kinda leaves me cold)
3rd - Paige (Her best performance yet so I hope she stays)
4th - Cece (LOVED it. It was amazing)
5th - Emblem 3 (I liked it but I find them personally arrogant and Simon COWell did not help them with his nasty Demi comments)
6th - Fifth Harmony (Sob story alert. Sorry but if I have a relative who died I would not parade it around on the VT and sing Stronger by Kelly Clarkson. Seemed distasteful and desperate to me)
7th - Diamond White (Never take on Whitney Babe =/)
8th - Vino Alan (FGS America please vote him out. He was horrific)

Watching on sky+, Paige was spectacular, genuinely shocked.

I know they say this a lot, but seriously think she could have a hit with that mix/performance as video.

I've been firmly team cece and emblem 3 since lyric 145 left, but think Paige may have overtaken diamond for me into third fave.

Fifth Harmony as abysmal as ever. Like a female one direction, all shouty and loud backing to disguise their voices.

Not surprising. It's who is in the bottom two with CeCe that has the drama potential.
