I really enjoyed Revelation Avenue last year, but these were another notch up agiain. There performance was really great, and fully deserving of their place in the final.

They are not in the Final the Golden buzzer only gets them to Semi Finals but in the end they won't win

They may not win, but i dont think they will be very far away.
OMG, I never agree with the OP but I do on this one. Possibly the best act I've ever seen on BGT. Just fantastic.
The lead singer was reminiscent of Ann Nesby who is one of my favourite voices of all time.

Loved them”
The lead singer was on an ego trip. She was far too dominant.
I found them as irritating as the act last week with the performers who were planted all around the auditorium.
Gospel music is church music to me - an act like that might have a lot of impact on a live audience but on TV they just came across as a load of noise and too much going on.
I don't like choirs and this one was throwing everything but the kitchen sink at us, but I thought the lead singer was very good. If it was just her with, say, six or eight, twelve at most, other singers, that would have been better, in my view. Simon loves a choir, though, second only to dog acts (which I hate much more than choirs).
It'd be great to see a chair like The 100 Voices of Gospel win BGT. A choir has never won before so it would be a refreshing change, and I really liked the act.

They were great.
I love gospel music.
Love any music that makes me cry.
Seems my heart,ears and eyes are joined together in some weird way when it comes to certain music ways.

Agree with these comments totally. Put me in a really good mood.
Everyone to their own, but they gave me a headache. Getting bored of vocal gymnastics. Is singing all about screeching in different directions to be impressive ?
Didn't like the 12 year old from last week either. Not denying they have talent but I don't want my ears ripped off.

It made me emotional but that's what real soul music is supposed to do. i love soulful house and much of that is gospel based so it's my sort of thing. The lead singer could definitely be the vocal on house tracks.
Theses days, when we are sold chart friendly pop stars like Adele and Sam Smith as being soul singers, the true meaning is forgotten. I'd love to hear them doing their take on something contemporary, maybe a sounds of blackness song

So what kind of acts do you enjoy then as gospel is not yur thing?
They were great but I don't think the singing was as actually as good as the reaction they received in my opinion. the who arm waving thing was dramatic but distracted from the fact they are not the strongest vocally.

I have to agree even when the lead started they didn't look that sure. also not all singers in the choir had a microphone which was odd suggesting not all were singing.

Of course they were all singing, and they are clearly very talented. It would be silly to say otherwise.
I was there at the audition when Alesha pressed her golden buzzer! My god they deserved it I think you have to be there to feel it! They lifted the spirits of the whole room and everyone was dancing and felt so good! They're vocals were great and everyone felt so good! It was funny because Alesha and Simion had a lot banter after the choir because Simom actually wanted them as his GB too.
After seeing them live I fully understand why Alesha pressed it! I'm rooting for them to win!
