Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the show you've all been waiting for, the*Grand Final of Battle of the Generations (series 2)!

Only a few days ago, we said goodbye to Karis Thomas after a ridiculously strong night for all five semifinalists. Karis lost out by a single point, leaving Nicolaa with only one act left. In fact, why stop at remembering just the latest eliminees? Let's take a look back at who we've lost along the way:
Spoiler
16th - La Diva
15th - Ruth Lorenzo
14th - Rosa Iamele
13th - Linda Antonia Heue
12th - Kevin Simms
11th - Rachel Potter
10th - Stevie McCrorie
9th - Alexa Curtis
8th - Jesse Kinch
7th - 4th Impact
6th - The GB's
5th - Karis Thomas


Tonight, the remaining four acts will go head-to-head one more time in a bid to secure the title for themselves and their mentor. Unlike other show, we will try something new, as all four acts will get to perform Who I Am and a Celebrity Duet and most importantly they will get the chance to impress the public with their Winner's Song. After all 12 performances, lines will open and you may start deciding who ends up first and who ends up fourth.

Is everything clear? Without further ado, let's call on the Battle of the Generation judges and the four finalist.

All right, Ethan and Nicolas are here, David has his votes with me, while Lewis isn't here again as usual.

Kicking off the finale with an emotional ballad for This Is Me, but I choose to call it Who I Am, it's the first of the two remaining Young Adults, Mollie Linden

Mollie Linden
Mollie Linden! I've never said this before but you are the dark horse of this competition. On the first few rounds, I thought that this girl isn't gonna last that long, but you've proven me wrong and with this kind of opening for the finale, you showed that whether behind full production or just your voice itself, you still sound good. I'm not gonna say that I hope you win, but just simply good luck!

Mollie Linden

Well, Mollie, it's safe to say you're the suprise of the contest, and you too seem to be the only one that gets progressively better each show. While I was initinally unsure of this song choice, I came to absolutely love it. It perfectly suited your magical tone. It was just beautiful and haunting, in a good way, as in it gave me chills. Overall it was absolutely stunning and beautiful, what a way to start the grand finals. Very well done, Mollie!

So the 'Dark Horse' tag actually fits Mollie if my interpretation is right of the Judges' comments.

Up next, singing a track that best show him, it's Chance Peņa

Chance Peņa
Chance Peņa! I'm enjoying having you here right now. What I like about you is that you have that loveable persona that I would like to listen to everyday, but Chance, you're young, that's why you're in the Kids category, and I just wished you were given more current tracks in the duration of the series, because I don't think that the song selection made you fun and exciting to watch. Please take note, I liked some of his performances but there were some that didn't hit me, it's just the song choice.

Chance Peņa

Well, Chance, this is the route I wanted you to take, and boy, you blew me away. I wanted something fierce and upbeat to start with, and you nailed it. The vocals and performance fit the entire song excellently, talk about making a fierce, full on, and BANG! of a performance. I just hope the public agree. Good luck, Chance.

Ethan seemed to be ticked by the song choice, and now he's ticking Chance's song choice.

Third performing who they are is the only remaining group in the competition, it's DarLos

My loveable and energetic duo! You know what, in the entire top 4, you got (I think) the most criticisms specially on some weeks where you done good (*ehem* First performance of Let Me Love You *ehem*). I'll try not to be a biased judge with my comments but boys, the hardwork paid off, you sounded perfect tonight. But boys, whatever the results will turn out to be, I'm so proud of you.

DarLos

DarLos, I'm gonna be honest, out of everyone here I thought you were least likely to win. Thought. But now, after that, I'd sayn you'd be favourite with the bookies if they did odds for this! While the song was a bit predictable, you guys are so charming and talented that I can't help but love it. Well done, boys!

Okay, judges seems to agree now on DarLos.

Okay, the last performer for round 1, here is Demie Fresco

Demie Fresco
Demie Fresco! Something I would like to point out in you is that since week 1, we've been receiving the same kind of performances from you, until this came. Honestly, this was your best performance. I think I must say this first, there are artist who you like to commend due to their amazing vocal calesthenics, but there are some that doesn't need to belt it out because they've send out their message and I think that's the kind of artist you are. Best performance from you. Good luck!

Demie Fresco

Ah, Demie, you seem to have strong and consistent voting positions, so things look good for you tonight. I'll be honest; I wasn't blown away by that perfomance, it was good but not amazing. It was a bit boring. I wish you luck

Mollie Linden! Honestly at first, reading it on paper, I thought it would work, thinking that this would drag you down. But seeing this performance a couple of times, I must say you have really drawn a lot in your versatility as I couldn't believe how you mentor made this performance work. Great job, Mollie!

Mollie, that was beautiful. You captured the everything needed for that song. It's nice to see you do something upbeat, and it worked very well. Good job!

This is what I'm talking about a while ago, Chance! Something for me that wasn't hitting the bell, I felt it was a good performance but talking about it in a finale, isn't enough. For a finale, good isn't enough. I was just not feeling it, Chance. But great to have Razorlight to duet with you.

Chance

I thought you were excellent, Chance, evrything was perfect and just clicked like that. I wanted to tone it down slightly after a big bang of a first performance, I just hope everyone liked it.

My super adorable boys! For me, personally, I'm 50-50 about that song, but on choosing and commenting on performances, you must set asides your dislikes and just judge it on how you think it is, whether it's good or bad. And I must say, that was an amazing duet, I would like to thank Liam Payne to saying Yes to perform with my boys that you took some time from your busy schedule to rehearse, plan and perform with my boys.

DarLos, it was OK. I found the song once again a bit predictable, and I'm not a fan of the song. It was still good, don't get me wrong, but not a performance for the final.
