Re Stephen's comments - wasn't the brief any dance floor - that encapsulates basically ANY song really. As you can waltz/ do a dance to any form of song in the history of songs.

So Raign's vocals get a lot of praise here, but her performance left something to be desired according to the judges.

Next up, it's the first of David's two boys. Ready to fill the dance floor, it's Judah Kelly!

But not a massive R n B song that we were given with a deep vocal voice

Yeah, for this theme it's just about being upbeat Stephen.

And even if they can rap, B.O.B is male?????

Judah Kelly
Hmmm, I am a bit unsure about that if I am honest. To me, it sounded quite old fashioned and I was just like, meh. It just didn't have a wow factor and I think you have regressed from the first 2 performances you did in the live shows. It wasn't bad by any means, but I really want you to go back to performances like the first 2!!

Judah

Judah last week I said apart from my own category you were my favourite act and I stand by my comment it was a really smart song choice by your mentor. This is what I call a floor filler I can see see me with a few drinks up throwing the shapes to this kinda song.

Omg so what if he is male have U never heard a female covering a male song? or a female rapper rapping a male part?

I don't have the time to sit and find songs that are female vocalists I find a song that the girls would sound amazing at and tbh surely as the concept of these games a little imagination is to be used

Judah Kelly

*Standing Ovation*

Judah, last weeks performance (which was in fact very floor filler) got very mixed comments from the judges, however I'm glad to see that you still gained support and avoided the sing off. This was a little more restrained than last weeks choice and I hoped that this would help to get your tone and vocal across more but still retaining a dancey edge. The thing that gets me every theme is how distinct you and Tom are and that it's pleasant to have two such distinctive voices and vocals in the category. I thought you pulled off the song well, the tone and vocal was amazing and for me you keep on delivering week on week. I hope again that you manage to pull in the votes and get through to next week.

No, the whole point of these games is to find songs that fit the artists voices. I have been in a lot of games you know? It's not about just picking any random song and saying that the act could cover it.

David and Stephen seemed to enjoy Judah's energetic performance, but Pingu wasn't convinced. Who will the public side with tonight?

Up next, it's the second and last girl of the evening. Letting us enjoy her soulful vocal again, it's Sharon Rose.

Sharon Rose
Sharon, I feel like your mentor isn't listening to me. For the past 4 weeks, I have been asking for a more current sounding song but every week he has given you these dated songs. Having said that though, this was much better than some of your previous performances and it did suit you well. You should be here next week, but please have a current song next week!!

I think this week Chloe has managed to overtake you and in a reversal you’ve been overshadowed slightly. I don’t know if that was the best song choice for you and in a similar way to Raign the vocal was so laid back that it lost being instant and grabbing. I don’t think it was the worst of the evening by any stretch of the imagination, however I’d quite like to hear you sing something where the vocal is killer and we get to hear your tone/ vocals over something a bit more Wow. I think you’ll still get through tonight, however there was something a bit lacking for me with the song.

Lukewarm comments for Sharon tonight. Actually, both of the girls didn't get the best sets of comments tonight, could they be in trouble?

Let's see if Johnny Robinson can deliver an energetic floor filler that will steer him clear of the bottom 2, shall we?

Johnny Robinson
*Standing Ovation*

Johnny, I was gutted when we found ourselves in the bottom for the 3rd time last week. However, I think you have come back stronger than ever with that performance. That was absolutely amazing. It showed off your brilliant higher range and those long high notes were just out of this world. After that performance, you definitely don't deserve to be in the bottom 2 because that was outstanding. Well done and please vote public!!!

Johnny

Johnny I can't believe you are still here to be honest but congrats. this week was almost written for you Johnny massive production massive floor filler song but I feel let down again. Vocally I still didn't get much from you. I am glad you used more of the upper range it was great to see that but the song doesn't strike me as a floor filler.

Johnny Robinson
The sing off king is back with a song which I think does fit more of you as an act/ artist. I guess one of the main reasons you are still here is due to my votes in the sing off and I do stand by them as I think you have been good in the sing offs the past few shows. However it seems to be followed up by a slightly weaker song the following show. I enjoyed the song, parts of it really suited your tone and I do think other parts didn't. I'm going to be honest, I don't know whether that will be enough to save you from the sing off this evening, but I do think that there would be something missing from the competition if you were eliminated.

A mixed bag of comments for Johnny tonight. Surely he won't be in the bottom 2 for the fourth week on the trot?

We've arrived at tonight's final performance already. Closing with a great Eliza and the Bear track, it's the equally great Tom Mann!

Tom

Tom I will be honest I was wondering all week what your mentor would do with you as this theme could be pretty dodgy for you but I have to give him props for a pretty good song choice. I will look forward to your performance next week.

Tom Mann

*standing ovation*

To say I was a little apprehensive of the theme given the vocal tone of Tom was a slight understatement. However I think that song managed to keep in with the theme and Tom's quirky vocal tone. Last show we tried to up the tempo a bit as per the judges critique. This week we go even further and give you something a little more heavy. I thought it was a fantastic performance and the themes are pushing you into a new direction. I really hope that the other judges like the song choice and you get the votes this evening as I think you've been one of the most consistent acts and there is so much more to do with your voice. Please support Tom!

Tom, that was without doubt my favourite performance from outside my category....of the entire series. It was just perfect for the tone of your voice and I really loved the song where it was really lively and upbeat. David obviously really gets you and for me, you are the frontrunner outside my category. If you continue, you could definitely win this. Amazing close to the show!!!!
