Josh Levi

Josh, I'm gonna have to be honest about this. Whilst I was entertained by the performance and the song, I don't believe that it was the right song for you and this was indeed quite predictable considering what you can do. Not impressed and I don't think you'll avoid the bottom five.

Rough Copy

Well boys, when I heard you were chosen, I was thinking that we may have some clever stuff coming up for this Series and sure enough, I was right. This was a great cover to go for and it also favored the talents you each have, possibly the best performance so far tonight. Well done you three.

Cat Vas
Cat as you know I am a massive fan and I was so shocked in a happy way when you were picked. But tonight I am very dissapointed Cat. Sorry but that didn`t suit you or your vocals in the slightest. It sounded more like Lucy Spraggan, and like Sam Bailey in your category I think you need the free pass but obviously you both can`t have it. Good luck Cat!!

Danie Geimer
Danie I think that was actually quite a good choice but then it wasn`t if you know what I mean. I don`t know at parts I thought it was you but then at others I thought it was Cat. Overall I think it was an okay choice Danie but I want something more suited to your style if you are here next week!!!

Cat Vas
Cat, I kind off don't know what to make of that as a performance or song choice I think you've got a good tone to your voice and I think its one of the most distinctive of the Final 15.Parts of the song worked for me and other parts didn't work so well. However I do want to see you proceed through to the next week; just with a better song as I think there is a lot more that can be done with you as an act and with your vocal tone. Good Luck for later tonight.

Danie Geimer
Danie I thought that was a fairly good song choice and arrangement for you; I do think though you could've been given something with a bit more vocal variety about it. However as a 1st performance on the show you did a good job, but it would've been good for you to have some more progression throughout the performance. If you come back next week then I want you to come out and really give it some welly and give us something with a bit more of a kick!

Cat Vas
What a cracking name! You are one of the acts I'm getting to know in this competition and that performance didn't completely win me over. I think you have the potential to grow on me and I would like to hear more emotion from your performances. Overall, a bit lukewarm for me.

Danie
You are a phenomenal ballad singer. That was not very good tonight. You sounded like you had no range, the verses sounded so..low, and at times, it sounded a bit too pronounced..over pronounced. The whole performance was just in the wrong octave for you. Sorry babe, that was not good.

Cat Vas

Cat my darling, many people were surprised when I chose you but I know what I'm doing. This song was a very quirky choice, but your voice has a niche to be ideal for the style. It was a really great performance to start with and I was moving along all the way through. This is only the beginning and I want to see you back here.

Danie Geimer

Well Danie, I chose a Thriller song on X Factor 20 and it got me in big trouble, so I wasn't expecting much with this. However in a way, I really liked it. The rendition was different to hear and although I think it wasn't as amazing as it could've been, I do think that you have serious potential to be here for a while.

Cat - Cat, I get it, I get what Steve was doing here, it worked IMO. You have a very unusual yet lovely voice, and Steve has certainly played up to that tonight, it was amazing, well done you! I would love to see you belt it out one week and give us something to go “DAYUM GIRL!” and make you a front runner. Well done

Danie - Danie, that was beautiful! It was very eerie and certainly what the theme was. It gave me shivers, a very nice play on that song! I am so proud of you tonight you certainly did amazingly well! I will take on what David said and next week we will belt out if the theme allows it! Your voice is top banana and I love you! Well done babe!

Abi Alton
Abi, Abi, Abi. What a beautiful and just fantastic performance. For the first show I wanted you to be on the piano, and it worked very well. It was quirky and just sensational. I am so proud of you, and this is what you should be doing on the show. Not Kylie Minogue. I really am proud as I said before and like Rion, I think you should be here next week. If you don`t get the free pass or treat I also urge the public to vote for you because I believe you should be here in the next show!!!

Luke Friend
Luke, you are the best UK boy this year, and I think that is the best of the night so far outside my category. I am just in awe of you because that was truly amazing, and your vocals were just out of this world. Really Luke, I think your mentor understands you and your style and there is no way that you should leave tonight!!!

JTR
Boys I do think that was a pretty good choice for one of you, but not as a group. I tried to imagine harmonizes so it kind of worked I guess. It just didn`t stand out against some of these amazing choices tonight and especially after the amazing hair. I can see you surviving though in the vote because of the girls so I don`t think you need the free pass as much as one of the other groups but it is up to your mentor.

Jeff Gutt
Jeff, finally a good over. That suited you pretty well, and that was by far the best of Steve`s category tonight. At parts I thought it was too rocky but I thought it was a good choice overall. You are the only act from your category tonight that I think deserves that free pass and if you ended up in the bottom 5 you could go, so Steve would be a fool not to give you the pass.

Nicholas McDonald
Nic, that was pretty nice but I found it quite boring. Right I have been miserable tonight so I will say that it was a great choice and you did very well. Just a bit more interesting if you are here next week. Good vocals and a good penultimate act of the night. Good job tonight Tom I think. Proving why you are the reigning champion!!!

Joelle
JOELLE I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU. What a great and stunning close to the show. You were just beautiful and I love your tone which was really shown with this song choice. What a great close to the show, and I loved the little slow rap that you had. Like my other girls I really want you to be here next week and I really don`t know what to do with this pass. Anyway, what an amazing close to the show Joelle. I picked you because I am a fan, and I think you just made a few more. I really hope the public vote you if you land in the bottom 5!!!

Abi Alton
I think you've got a great voice for a certain style of music and that is the style of music that was presented to us tonight. Your voice works so well in an acoustic setting and with the piano backing it up helps you to create a fantastic, understated performance. My only concern for you is that I don't you as an act is going to be able to adapt the various themes that this competition throws at us. However I guess that's a hollow argument at this stage; for a first performance I thought that was good at times I did feel it didn't really progress anywhere however you have an amazing tone to your voice so well done tonight.

Luke Friend
Luke I picked you because you've got such a distinctive tone to your voice and I think you put alot of emotion into all your performances. Tonight you weren't slowed down and acoustic which I think a lot of people were possibly thinking the route I would go down with you. But you're more than just an acoustic singer; you can bring the big performances and because of the tone of your voice you can make the songs your own. I hope people support you in the competition and good luck tonight with the results. But I thought you were amazing tonight!

JTR
Guys welcome to the live shows! I think having looked back at some of your performances to get you to the lives that the one thing you guys bring is energy to all your performances and also quite good harmonies. For me that song kind of lacked both and whilst I thought you sung the song well it did feel as though there was something missing in the performance. I do think the group has got good potential in this competition and I hope if you return in the next show that you can bring it big! It wasn't a bad performance though, it just felt slightly lacking for me.

Jeff Gutt
Erm.... Wow! you certainly bought a fair amount of whack to that performance and certainly made me take notice of you as an act in this competition. At times it was possibly a little OTT, but its good for acts to have too much than not enough of something in a performance. I can't see how you wouldn't be safe after that performance. Well Done tonight; great performance. You're definately one to watch in the competition and you are by about 1000% the best in the overs category - out of the 3 you deserve to go through to the next week.

Nicholas McDonald
Nicholas I think you do have an exceptional voice and one that never really fails to emote the song that they are given. However you're kind of wide-eyed young kid and in some respects I don't think a song like 'Creep' really suits your style as an act. However you did sing it well and you've got such range and power with your voice. I'd expect you to be around for a fair few weeks in this competition. Well Done on your first performance on the show.

Joelle
That was a great performance from you this evening and I would say the best performance from the girls category this evening. It fitted in with your vocal tone and it enabled you to actually bring some umph to the stage. I hope that you get through this evening as I think after that you are probably one to watch. Well Done on the performance and Pingu on the song choice.

Thanks Pingu... took me bloody ages to find the right song

Abi - WAAOOOOWWEEEEEE!!!!!!!! Abi, boom! No words, absolutely no words! Your mentor got it, he gets it! You are very talented, but you are also very specific to the type of music you can do, and that does worry me for weeks to come, but focusing on that performance, it was beautiful! Well done

Luke - Luke, I understand the theme was hard, but I think that song wasn’t right for you. Your vocals were great and all that paraphernalia, but it seemed to not work. I don’t know what it was, maybe it dated you, I don’t know, but it just didn’t seem like you wanted to sing it or something. I am sorry tonight but I didn’t really enjoy it.

JTR - JTR! Very goooood! I am so happy you pulled it back and allowed us to see you, as vulnerable boys, it was amazing! Keep that standard up and you WILL survive this competition! Now, I won last year and I am back to win my crown back, but…. You to me are the one to watch out of everybody here outside of my own category.

Jeff - Jeff, that for me was not the best tonight, left me feeling very loosy goosy, not know what to do, not very impressed. You are talented though, you do have a great voice, but that song was a bit too far away from you for me. I hope if you are safe through to next week that your mentor takes it back to you and shows us you as an artist because you are a very talented singer.

Nicholas - Nicholas, I didn’t want to show off your huge vocals just yet so that is why I decided to reign it in a bit. You showed us that you do have a great voice and you are VERY talented! I am so proud of you tonight, you kicked ASS! Well done mate! And why thank you Pingu!!! haha!

Joelle - Wow, hello Mrs Joelle! That was very nice indeed! Your mentor has got it just right tonight, and I am so happy with you, a great way to close the live show. Very happy, I would love to see you kick it up a notch though and shake it all out and give me something unexpected. But tonight, very good well done!

Gotta scoot now, sent Jacka who I save! Good luck everybody tonight!!

Abi
Abi, that actually suited you. I was like "here we go" when we got to you, but I have to say that was actually alright. I think you are a great writer, I'm not sure if you have IT that makes you an artist. Please, by all means, prove me wrong in this competition. Good luck.

Luke
That was an okay performance for me. I think the vocals could've been better and I would've wanted more energy on the stage- like a Frankie Cocozza who can actually sing. You have got so much potential though.

JTR
You are a boyband of 3 brothers who've all got great voice.That was a great vocal delivery from you guys. You showed so much emotion and passion from your voices tonight. I genuinely believe you guys can take this competition by storm and I cant wait to take this ride with you. Great performance tonight.

Jeff
Oh my, get some honey and lemon on that throat. I think you gave it a tiny bit too much to be honest, in terms of power and projection. I don't know how that's going to sit with the public but to me: I think you rock.

Nicholas
You have a good voice but that was not a good song choice for you, the wrong genre too. I appreciate how you tried to change it up. Your control wasn't quite on point and some of the notes sounded a bit pushed. Not good tonight. sorry

Joelle
Compared to Rion and Abi, you're the best in your category-no doubt..and it would be criminal if Pingu lets you go home tonight. I felt the rawness and the emotion of the song but I would like more cleaner vocals from you in the future.

I too have got to go for about 15 minutes, will PM Jack who i'm gonna save

Abi Alton

Abi, I think Pingu has nailed you right from the word go! That was a lovely song choice as it totally suited you right down. The arrangement with the piano and staging was indeed very Halloween in a clever way I think. I believe Pingu is gonna have a fab time with you in the weeks to come. Nicely done tonight.

Luke Friend

Luke, just like I said to Abi. David has managed to get you spot on! The artist singing this voice has quite a similar voice to yours which makes it more like a brilliant choice made here. The performance was very good and I think you're gonna be the darkhorse, well done this evening.

JTR

Hey boys, I think that out of all the groups tonight, you were the ones I was waiting to see and find out how well you would do tonight. I thought it was a very lovely choice made by your mentor and it suited your voices. The one thing missing was the harmonies and I hope to see that next week.

Jeff Gutt

Jeff my rock star! Finding a Halloween song for you was very easy to do as there was so many to choose from. I was going to go for a more popular Halloween-related Skillet song but I bet someone would've said predictable so we avoided that and went for this less-known gem. You rocked it out and we will continue to work hard.

Nicholas McDonald

Nicholas, first of all don't say that you're a creep and that you don't belong here, because you're not and you do. Joking aside, that was a lovely acoustic cover chosen and I thought it suited you really well. Good job on this performance.

Joelle

Well I am a big Pixie fan, so Pingu has indeed great taste! Joelle, I can understand and see what your mentor is doing here and for me, I think it worked really well. The style of the song allowed you to project your voice which I think Redfoo failed to do, but I'm sure Pingu will do a thousands time better with you. Great way to close the show, girl.

Good show tonight, faves were pretty much all the boys (don't understand the hate for Josh ), Danie, Dami, Jeffery, Abi and Joelle

Yayyyy glad you liked them

Yes! I knew I would get one of my overs to impress you, Jack.

That and the fact you know my love of Skillet

Obviously one of my girls got bad comments while the other 2 didn`t. I don`t know whether to save her, but then possibly get rid of a frontrunner

After those comments...I'm really stuck between my three overs.

Btw, does anyone else HATE this theme now? I hated it since Thursday.

no groups?

I don`t hate the theme Steve

I dislike the them. However I HATE the twist!!!
