We can relax a bit more now. It has been a little confusing how you see someone you like and they never appear again. I remember X-Factor USA where the judges really rated Brandie Love and she was never mentioned again.

I wasn't surprised by which of the last two men they chose, but don't feel the love for LaPorsha. I realise that there a number of large people in the USA but I really doubt that the American public would vote for one. And didn't the other girl (Londita?) say that she had lost 150 pounds so that she would have a better shot at making progress?

The only annoying thing is as it came on after first break think they've started showing the show from that many minutes in as if they'd shown the first part from 8pm like they should of done. So anoying we've missed some performances because of 4music's mix up!

I counted that we saw 10 performers, so we only missed two.

Lucky that I came on here, I was just about to delete it when I realized they were showing an old episode!

really liked sonika earlier in the show and thought she looked stunning last night but found the song a bit boring , whether it was just the song or her not really putting any "ooomph" into it i dont know

was disappointed with emily brooks , her voice was really wobbly i thought

avalon was by far, and i mean by a distance, my favourite last night

that could have been one of the worst versions of "creep" i have ever heard as well from the young guy in the hat

Whaah. I deleted the last episode thinking it was a repeat and turns out it was a f***up by 4 music so I've missed all the solos. Not enjoying the duets as much as I hoped. I also think I might be alone in never getting Fantasia. Nice to see Scotty though

was really worried when i saw who they had paired avalon with, my new favourite btw, and especially the song they were singing as didn't think it would suit her at all but she was great again

sounding like a broken record here but the talent is just incredible

my one gripe is i dont really like country and there is a heavy country influence

quite surprised by a couple of those choices

wouldn't have put through the guy that murdered "creep" last night and got completely overshadowed in his duet tonight

might be the country thing i mentioned above but wouldn't have put jeneve through either, thought emily was being set up as "the chosen one" but she was a bit ropey last couple of performances

For those who keep missing episodes (guilty!) it's worth noting there are repeats on Wednesday and Thursday (about 11.45 pm) or Saturday and Sunday (10am).

just went back and listened to some of this weeks solos on youtube and realised the song avalon did was also done by louisa johnson on x factor, so had a listen to that version to compare the 2 and they are like night and day

louisa turned the song into a shout-fest in the second half where the version avalon did was just right on the money imo

That's what I thought, he absolutely crucified it.........and yet the three judges thought it was great. Not to my ears it wasn't!

Time to move to Virgin?

The only problem was the first two singers being missed, but that was 4Music's mistake. It's a good job that I read what had happened on here before viewing, as otherwise I would have deleted the whole episode.

bit of a mixed bag with the second batch of solo performances tonight

the last girl to perform, olivia i think her name was, was my favourite of the night , hadn't really noticed much of her before

probably being a bit of an old letch here but that tristan girl is really stunning

really liked seeing haley reinhart back last night doing duets

that little bit of huskiness in her voice is great and she did one of my favourite versions of "house of the rising sun" i've seen on any of these shows when she was a contestant

not sure any of the contestants really stood out in the second group, maybe lee jean, was surprised the guy that did "benny and the jets" with haley didn't get through as that was probably my favourite duet of the night
