John:Sign sealed delivered: Stevie fan he started off doing an acoustic version of the song with his guitar. Right from the get go the audience were enjoying him. Until Simon had ago at him saying he sounded like a cover artest so he went acapella crowed loved him I hope this guy makes the lives.through to six chairs

Rak-Su:Original song girl next door:A 4piece Boyband all from Watford they had amazing dance moves. The singing voices were good the song had a lot of rapping the audience were going crazy for them.

Two Brothers:Sang Beggin by madcon and Sing by ed Sheeran:The audience liked them the brothers first sang beggin but Simon wasnt keen on that song so they sang another song which was sing by ed Sheeran.The judges said that they have been consistant until that performace Nicole says there is a place for them in her heart but she was let down with their performace They are deadcert for the lives in my opinion potentially the new one direction 1 brother sang the other was rapping and playing the acoustic guitar they reminded me of shawn mendez meets ed sheeran:Through to six chair.

Skippy I think his name was:27:Runnin by Beyoncé:The guy was a sob story single father with 1 year old daughter.Sharon asked him why does he want to be in the competition and what does it mean to him he was saying Xfactor is all he has because he messed up his life. He then mentioned the Xfactor is the only good thing he has left he had a soulful voice. But came over as really desperate and his personality was ruining it for him he was also talking about how he lost his job working on the railway trains. Skippy got a mixed response from the audience:Through to six chairs.
Female:One last time by Ariana grande:19:Female said she was unique and different from the other girls in the category. She was going to do an original version of one last time by Ariana grande but they played the normal version:Simon told her to come back later.
Couple
