Shall add more after their auditions are shown

Unfortunately didn't get the boys and groups this year (thanks to not being allowed to exit the arena for 30 seconds to pick up tickets for the final session)

However, here we go!

Hannah Barrett
Tamera Foster
Sam Bailey

I wish you had been there for the screening I was at. Would've loved to have heard some of the groups and boys again.

I thought Hannah was the best, and she had the greatest crowd reaction.

Oh my God Tamera I HATE it when people cover Stay with passion but her cover is actually really good but she kind of over did it in the last couple of parts of the song with the constant belting but I still liked it

Tamera and Sam are easy the best so far, and my early favs.

I think Sam is the best over to go on the show. If she was slim and 25 people would be all over her, but because she is older it's "The new Mary Byrne"! It's annoying!

Tamera is amazing the girl has so much potential she did kind of over sing a bit near the end but the majority of it was amazing she just needs to be controlled by a vocal coach and she will be a force to be reckoned with I reckon.

I think that Hannah and Tamera are nailed on certs for the final. Not sure about Sam.

That's exactly who she is. Ironically I don't think you'd be the first in queue to buy her music...

She reminds me of The Voice UK's Leanne Mitchell.

Thanks so much for the recordings!

Tamera was doing well, but that ending... A little over the top? That was an atrocious mess. Especially considering just yesterday I saw a Demi Lovato cover of the song where she went up at the last part and sounded amazing. The first part was quite good though.

Hannah I'm surprised I actually liked most of the three. Very soulful.

Sam I'd have enjoyed if she didn't sing clown. Seriously. Everytime someone covers an Emeli Sande song, a puppy gets abandoned. She does sound great though.

It's not, though. Mary was so limited, she didn't have the range like Sam. Mary was in to singing all the old songs - much like Christopher Maloney. A quick look on youtube and Sam has sung songs a lot more 'cool' and a lot better than Mary ever did.

I don't think sam is versatile. She can only sing ballads by the sounds of it. She will crumble in the lives. Now is the best time to lay sam if I was you. She won't win even tho she is from where I am from. Have to be honest. They put her on first to expand her fanbase

Im looking forward to watching Nicole's reaction to Hannah's performance as thats the song Rachel Crow sang before she was eliminated and we had that huge drama, I think she wont ever forget this haha

I really liked Tamera's, she did go over the top at the end but like it or not she showed potential again, but she really needs to work on her control

Tamera at the end :S Am I the only one that thinks that's awful?

she did go really off key as I said but I think itll be a lot better when we see her performing and even having no control this can be solved with hard work, but as alexandra would say "potential, potential, pot.. ye.. WICKED, YES. YES." (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiN1Y2bG2WQ lol)

I don't get this, though. People are comparing her to Leona Lewis and saying she is the best thing to audition on any X Factor worldwide ever. But....did you hear the notes she hit? Horrendously off key! If that was any other contestant this forum would be the first to jump on it, but it seems Tamera will be the girl that can do no wrong. I don't get the fuss, especially when she sings that terribly!

Totally agree with this, the last part was painful. I bet that won't be shown in the vt for boot camp. She might seem to have the complete package for the producers but you gotta produce the goods too. That vocal would have sent many a hopeful packing IMO.

Phew! I honestly thought I was the only one. I'm annoyed at myself in a way because I really do feel in a way I am missing something, and it's me. But, I don't think it's even debatable that from 2:30 onwards it's more than dreadful. If Sam or Hannah were to go and sing like that this forum would be in uproar if she was hailed to be amazing. I really think she was awful there. Truly, truly awful.

The thing is cant you see her in a year or two recording a very good track and being a star? cause these vocal issues can be solved with hard work and she is a lot better than most stars out there, then she also has the looks and the stage presence so I dont see why the show wouldnt bet on her and pimp her

it was really bad , if she wasn't a pretty girl she'd be gone home already

Yes. I absolutely could. But what annoys me is that people who perform BETTER than that, who could be stars NOW, not in two, three, four years, whatever, get sent home, whilst THIS gets put through. That isn't fair.

Why keep someone on because they can be a star in 2 years, when they can sing a little better? There is such better talent NOW that should be going through but no doubt wont be going through.
