Here is my feedback

Owoajes team

Josh Daniels

I loved your first song admittedly I havent heard it before but it really suited you. If you made the final I can see you performing this again well done mate 9/10

The second song. Sorry I wasnt really feeling this. I find it very boring and your first performance was better and hopefully that will see you through 6/10

Colton

Burn baby Burn. Well that certainly was on fire. I absolutely loved it. You are once again a contender 10/10

Waiting for superman. Well that was super, man. It even made me a little bit weepy I love this song. Incredible 10/10

Patrick

Beautiful: I have to be honest I don't really like eminem and I havent heard that song before. That said I liked it and you made it your own and I like you 8/10

Far away: again a song I havent heard. But this was your best yet. It was great and im glad you didnt leave last week because you have shown your true talent tonight please keep doing this kind of music 9/10

Nickys team

Sabrina

Irreplaceable. More like irrelevant. That just didnt show you off as an artist. I love you sabrina so I hope your next performance will be special 6/10

Friend like me (I hated how this girl sang so basing it purely on the song and how I think Sabrina would sing it)

This song has a special place in my heart. My little daughter is obsessed with aladdin she watches it on a daily basis so I hear this song every day so it was nice to hear someone else sing it for a change. It was fun and fabulous just like you 10/10

Sandie:

Cheerleader: I cant imagine you having this song on your album. Its a very random song for you. Thay said. I actually really enjoyed it
I love the original so it wasnt as good as that but yeah good job 8/10

Whole of the moon: I actually love this song. It was the kind of music that I see you doing. You have had a pretty strong night 10/10

Jay:

Alive: this is my favourite sia song. But for me that fell flat. I disagree with nicky I didnt feel the emotion and it stayed one dimensional it just didnt go that extra notch for me sorry 5/10

Smells like teen spirit: I love this song and you had a lot of fun with it so good job this might have saved you 8/10

My team

Lydia:

I will always love you. I really will. You are just an amazing all rounder. It was beautiful it made me cry and you could have a hit with that 10/10

Jumpin jumpin: thats a hard song to take on its pretty quick and yet you still put on a full on dance routine. It was full of sass and it was brilliant, this song brings back good memories of good parties so you brought that to the stage 10/10

Laura

Back to black: this is an epic tune in my eyes it really should be a bond track. You managed to make your own. It was dark and dirty and sultry and angry and magnificent 10/10

My heart will go on: I am worried about choosing this for you because its such a massive song and rather overdone but it has a huge part in my childhood as it was one of my favourite movies and I knew you could smash it and you did thankyou 9/10

Emily:

Wonderwall: I loved this song back in the day. You managed to make it your own and sound current so well done 9/10

Still into you: that was full of emotion and I belieced your story 10/10

Mystical forest

Fix you: im glad I still have you girls. That had me in tears it was beautiful and I imagine this pn your album I loved it 10/10

Hallelujah: this has a special place in my heart and I really wanted you girls to perform it. I knew you could make it special and I felt you had your moment right there. I hope people can see you as contenders now 10/10

My votes go to:

Colton
Patrick
Sandie
Sabrina

[Nicky91]

wow what a coincidence Jake, Titanic is also one of my favourite movies :D

[Strictly Jake]

wow what a coincidence Jake, Titanic is also one of my favourite movies :D

My all time favourite is jurassic park but there isnt a song from that haha

[Nicky91]

My all time favourite is jurassic park but there isnt a song from that haha

mine as well, i love all of the jurassic park movies :D

[Strictly Jake]

mine as well, i love all of the jurassic park movies :D

Yeah im obsessed with them! Although I thought jurassic world could have been better

Anyway back to the game did you see my songs for next weeks christmas theme. No idea what to do as the second theme I was thinking guilty pleasures

[Nicky91]

Yeah im obsessed with them! Although I thought jurassic world could have been better

Anyway back to the game did you see my songs for next weeks christmas theme. No idea what to do as the second theme I was thinking guilty pleasures

yeah me too, i've seen the lost world like more than 25 times now or maybe more times :D, that infant t rex was so cute :)

but back to the game, yeah i saw your Christmas theme songs, and guilty pleasures might be cool, i think my team could manage that theme as well :)

[Owoaje1993]

I personally think the Christmas theme should be for the finals
I think next week should be the semi finals

Where it's judges swap and Get me to the final

[Strictly Jake]

Yeah but surely this cant only have 2 weeks left and besides after next week we will have to have a week off as im on holiday with no wifi! And after that its not Christmas. Plus owoaje you keep picking the themes and twists surely its my turn so I think Christmas and guilty pleasures. Then a week off. Then the semi final with judge swap and song for the final with the top 6 then its the final with top 4.

The guest judge next week is ariana grande

So quarter final next week with top 8 is Christmas and guilty pleasures

Week off

4th jan semi final
11th jan the final

[Nicky91]

Kendall: i'm now joined by team Nicky, hi girls and Jay

Sabrina: hi Kendall

Sandie: hi Kendall

Jay: hey Kendall

Kendall: okay how has this week been so far for all of you

Sabrina: well 2 good songs, i really enjoyed the aladdin song, i think i can be confident about next week, i'm so desperate about doing a Christmas song on this stage

Sandie: i've really loved the Cheerleader song, making my own version of this modern song, and the whole of the moon was quite lovely to be performing it as well on this beautiful stage

Jay: I really admire sia as a songwriter and singer, it was a honour for me singing one of her songs, and trying to give it as many emotion and passion as possible, the Nirvana song was quite special for me to be performing it here, as Nirvana was my inspiration of becoming a punk rock singer so i'm also glad Jake liked it

Kendall: Will I am is our guest mentor he'll be giving his feedback and scores any moment, and also mentor Owoaje has to give his feedback and scores as well

[Nicky91]

my Christmas songs

Sandie Shaw - 2000 Miles by The Pretenders

Sabrina Salerno - Another Year has gone by - by Celine Dion

Jay Smith - Deck the Halls by REO Speedwagon

[Owoaje1993]

Jay
Song1:Dude if I'm being brutally honest that was as exciting as looking at a blank screen on tv in fact a blank screen would have been better I'm sorry mate but your time is up 1/10

Song2:Much better than song1 however I do feel that your time has run out in the competition and it's your time to go because I don't think you bring any relavance to the competition 3/10

Sandie
Song1:I'm shocked because I really enjoyed this it wasn't amazing but I was expecting CarCrash but instead it was good parking nice job 8/10

Song2:By far your best performance it was beautiful you have just arrived in the competition tonight 10/10

Sabrina
Song1:Well i don't know what to say about this very out of tune and screechy I thought I wasn't sure if it was your singing or if it was mice but I'm gonna be nice to only because of your previous performances 6/10

Song2:I'm sorry but what on Earth was that nonsense after tonight you have gone from nickys only chance of winning and one of the front runners to a complete disgrace I hate to say it but 0/10 I feel like this week Nicky only focused on sandie and treated Jay and Sabrina like Wasted macdonalds bags

Emily
Song1:I liked the song however I wasn't crazy about it I wish you stuck with I'll be their for you by The Rembrandt's or done their she goes by Sixpence none the richer because that's right up your ally your young this felt like a 70 odd in an old people's home and then could have potentially made you my new favourite so I don't know 6/10

Song2:To be fair I was bored would have preferred to have watched the rain Emily I will be honest this isn't your week and I feel that Jake this week took the fun out of you I would have gave you Kiss me by six pence none the richer or Sheryl crow:Sweet child of mine 4/10

Lydia:

Song1:On the positive note you did found beautiful I ain't gonna lie however I felt this was too cliche and was too overused 8/10

Song2:Lydia much better than your first performance was it your best no but you done a decent job with it 9/10

Laura
Song1:By far your best in fact the best so far for some reason I think there is a horse race between you and Lydia after that your winning after that also I'm pretty sure the soul queen herself Amy winehouse is supporting from above with her banner up with your name Laura 10/10

Song2:Vocally amazing performance amazing however I found it a bit corny and too similar to Lydia's performance of I will always love you again it was cliche but on a positive 10/10

MysticForest
Song1:Ladies the only thing you have to fix at the moment is that the boredom after that performance I feel that you ladies pretty much do the same thing every single week I was so wanted you girls to sing ironic by Alanis moressette that would have been so much better I'm also still waiting for you fun side it's like you girls don't want to be in the competition your like random girls just standing at a bus stop on a rainy day 1/10

Song2:Bland Bland Bland hallelujah that's over 1/10

Josh
Song1:Dude I love your sound and your voice your consistent every week and you can sing anything out of the guy singers your the strongest 9/10

Song2:I know girls are gonna listen to that over and over again that was magnificent 10/10

Colton:
Song1:Dude that was amazing nice job you felt comfortable and your the one of the best acts left and a darkhorse 10/10

Song2:I would admit it wasn't all perfect but however you done a amazing job 9/10

Patrick
Song1:Patrick good job however it wasn't as amazing as your previous performances I know you could do better that's why we have two songs 8/10

Song2:Yo that was your best performance by far 10/10

[Nicky91]

omg Owoaje be fair on my Sabrina and Jake's Mystical forest cause no way that they deserved those low scores, very harsh from you, trying to save your acts :(


Sabrina, yeah i wanted to show off how versatile she actually is, so i went for comedy this week, hoping she'll be here next week to show us a wonderful Christmas ballad, and another party guilty pleasure :)

[Strictly Jake]

Yeah scoring a 0 and a 1 is pretty unfair we always score at least 5 or 6 even if we don't like an act. But I'll bear this is mind in the few important stages of the competition ahead

[Owoaje1993]

Rylan:Hello ladies and gentlemen I believe we have the owoaje93 artist Patrick with us right now with a shock announcement

Patrick:Yes I do basically I really have enjoyed everything about this competition but due to nextweek being Christmas themed I don't think any songs suit me and I decided I would prefer to be an indipendent artist so as I am sadly to say with but I'm withdrawing myself from the competition and I hope and support the rest of the guys on team owoaje and best of luck to the other contestants and my favourite act is Lydia

Rylan:As sad it is to see you leave you have been a pleasure and don't give up the music and I could announce and owoaje did agree to this he will not be having a replacement and he is just sticking with two acts which are Josh Daniels and Colton Dixon

[Owoaje1993]

[Nicky91]

i wonder who will be saved this week with Patrick withdrawing :)

[Strictly Jake]

Well it's another double Nicky so at least only one act will be leaving now so it will be a sing off between 2 acts

[Nicky91]

Well it's another double Nicky so at least only one act will be leaving now so it will be a sing off between 2 acts

Jay vs Sabrina i hope, which will be fair for one of my acts :)

[Owoaje1993]

I've decided due to me enjoying this game I want to be back next season and I want to mentor the groups

[Nicky91]

I've decided due to me enjoying this game I want to be back next season and I want to mentor the groups

okay, you can mentor the groups, Jake wants to mentor the Overs

i'll be mentoring the Girls and some boys i think :)

[Owoaje1993]

Hopefully we will get a fourth judge

[Nicky91]

Hopefully we will get a fourth judge

yeah i hope so too, if so then i'll mentor the boys category if we get a fourth Judge :)

[Owoaje1993]

I also think we should have 3 or 4 acts each on the next game to keep it quick when we get to the lives

[Nicky91]

I also think we should have 3 or 4 acts each on the next game to keep it quick when we get to the lives

some more rounds before the liveshows, like bootcamp and then 6 seat challenge, and then judges houses to pick our 4 liveshow acts :)

[Owoaje1993]

Ok

[Nicky91]

Ok

i've got someone who i'm thinking of as 4th mentor, she mentored before on our game, first series Amy Jade, i think she would be perfect for the girls category :)


and a 4th mentor is way more fun, more feedback and scores :)

[Owoaje1993]

OK but I think we should keep the game short and not a long one due to other commitments

[Nicky91]

OK but I think we should keep the game short and not a long one due to other commitments

okay, i know but happy that you are on board for another series mate :)


anyway i want to apologize to you for really being mad towards you, that wasn't cool, just be more honest in your feedback and scores, i'm also honest in all my feedback and my scores :)

[Owoaje1993]

No it is completely fine I'm not upset you said your opinion I would like to apologise if you think I'm targeting your acts

[Nicky91]

No it is completely fine I'm not upset you said your opinion I would like to apologise if you think I'm targeting your acts

i accept your apology mate :), i'm definitely going for a rapper myself next series i think :)

[Strictly Jake]

[Nicky91]

[Nicky91]

and also singing for survival Sabrina Salerno with the song The Climb by Miley Cyrus

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEMixnRslC8

[Nicky91]

my feedback

Jay: i love this rendition of a iconic madonna song, especially that last note, wow i'm impressed with your fighter spirit

Sabrina: loved the passion of this song, and you made it come to life, i'm so seeing you as a contender to win this series

[Nicky91]

i'm saving Jay Smith, cause of your edgy voice and i do want something unique in this competition

[Owoaje1993]

Gonna make this quick and easy the act im saving is
Sabrina:Reason is because we all have are bad weeks and that's forgivable and I do think your nickys only chance of winning

[Nicky91]

okay that makes it 1 vote to Jay, and 1 vote to Sabrina :)

[Owoaje1993]

Will iams verdict
Jay:That was fresh and I like you but I wanna know are you consistent in the competition and do you bring anything special

Sabrina:I love your voice but I did hate your performance last week but I do think your good but I'm worried that Nicky will take you out of your shell

The act I'm gonna save is
Sabrina:Becausw she excites me more

[Strictly Jake]

I too would save Sabrina

Now im doing something controversial

Im using my save and replace to bring back miss molly. I honestly think they left too early and have a shot at winning

The act im sending home is mystical forest. Im sorry to do this but I think they are being given a hard time in the competition and I will mentor them outside of the show

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mK0z1S8SwZc

[Nicky91]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-8VCL4uSUc

Kendall: Lydia, our little sweet Christmas angel

Nicky's comment: well i'll tell you what Lydia, if you're not going to be there in the final, well then this is not a talent show, you were absolutely flawless, most George Michael songs mostly come over cheesy or cringey, but this was really easy listening, and i loved it :clap1: :clap1:

[Nicky91]

up next it's Josh Daniels with the song Someday at Christmas by Stevie Wonder ft Andra Day

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaA7B9cu4kU

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM2Fnp_qnE8

[Nicky91]

performing first for the second song it's Miss Molly with the song Home Run by Misha B

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaOw35GBPQw


Dermot: swagger and such a nice guilty pleasure

Nicky's comment: it had swagger and attitude, but i just felt like it was more a run for home, than a home run, too rushed and it lacked any connection with the audience, worst performance from you girls yet, i did not like this at all :(

[Nicky91]

up next it's Sabrina Salerno with the song Break Free by Ariana Grande

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o10JvaDCO4


Kendall: Sabrina, what a brave song choice with Ariana as our guest mentor this week

[Nicky91]

Nicki it wasnt your turn to add a guest mentor it was mine. Your turn is next week

it wasn't really a guest mentor, as he hasn't done all songs, just the Christmas songs, and just don't add his scores okay :)

it was just for advice and feedback only but my apologies to you mate :hee:

[Nicky91]

when are your feedback and scores coming Jake and Owoaje :(

[Strictly Jake]

[Strictly Jake]

okay Jake sorry to hear that :(, and can't wait for your feedback :)

No dont worry its busy in a good way im going on holiday tomorrow so im busy sorting everything out for that haha. So next week can we take a break because where im going I dont have wifi. Im currently writing my feedback so it will be up very soon

[Strictly Jake]

My feedback

First my team

Laura:

All i want for Christmas-
Nicky is wrong here. This has to be my favourite Christmas song and it actually always wins peoples favourite Christmas songs polls so it got me in the mood as well as every one else im sure. It was a great way to open the show and you sounded amazing. It was nice to see you have some fun too
10/10

Im every woman-
Some might say this is pretty old fashioned but it is a guilty pleasure of mine. Its such a belter of a song, a really fun edge to it but quite soulful at the same time and I see you making that kind of music. You looled like you were having such a good time 10/10

Emily:

Underneath the tree-
I hadnt heard this song until recently when you told me you wanted to sing this. I loved the pop sound. It was nice to see you enjoy yourself. Well done 10/10

Thousand miles-
I have to admit this is more a guilty pleasure of mine then yours as you were a baby when this came out which makes me feel old. But you still dud a decent job and I liked the fresher feel of it 9/10

Lydia

Last christmas-
I love the original by wham. But it was ariana herself that told me lydia would be good at this. I love how the song has been brought up to date and I was bopping along to that 10/10

Party in the usa-
You chose this. It surprised me. I believed the story and it could have been your song. It was on the cheesy side but its the week we can get away with doing that and you had fun 10/10

Miss Molly

Have yourself a merry little Christmas-

Who knew you had this vocal range girls. You must have put in a lot of work since you left the show. But im so glad your back. That was so special and I loved it 10/10

Home run-
Misha this is your song so thanks for letting us listen to it. You girls could release this right now as a single. I felt like I was watching a miss molly concert! It was so good 10/10

Nickys team

Sabrina:

The power of love-
I have to be honest I would have wanted something a bit more fun from you. This was a little bit depressing. Im glad your in the competition but I think you could have given a lot more 7/10

Break free-
Yeah it was brave to take that on with ariana sat right here. But I loved that much better than your first 9/10

Sandie:
2000 miles-

I get the feeling you werent too keen on that song choice. It didnt suit you very much. I wish you had done santa baby or rocking around the Christmas tree as both of them would have suited you. But well done foe taking on something different I suppose. I think your in danger this week though 7/10

Video games-
This was a genius song choice for you I really loved it well done 10/10

Owoajes team

Josh:
Someday at Christmas-
I havent heard this song before but I quite liked it. I would have preferred to hear a well known loved Christmas classic like silent night. But this was nice and warm and quite charming yeah I quite liked it 8/10

Hometown glory-
I really like this song and I liked your version. This might be your best to date 9/10

Colton:

Shake up Christmas-
Again I haven't heard this song before. Usually I quite like train but that song was horrendous. Its rare I dont enjoy one of your performances but it didnt like that really sorry 6/10

The best of you-
This song holds a special place in my heart. It was playing in the background when I proposed to my wife. So it was nice to hear it. I wouldn't have said its a guilty pleasure though there isnt anything guilty about it. Its a great song from a great band and you smashed it 10/10

[Nicky91]

okay thank you for your feedback Jake, and let me explain i wanted a ballad from Sabrina for Christmas, because her fun performance last week wasn't really receiving great feedback from Owoaje, and Break Free i thought would be a good choice coming straight from the sing off, showing off her inner fighter diva


Sandie, i wanted that song 2000 miles for her, to showcase her voice and it's one of her favourite Christmas songs, and i think that's also important, songs who have a special message, and Video Games was my idea :)

[Strictly Jake]

Ariana grande's feedback

Jakes team

Laura

All I want for Christmas:
I love this song so much. Its my all time favourite Christmas song. Im a huge mariah fan aswell. I have covered this song myself and I can say its not an easy song to sing and babe you gave it your all well done 10/10

Im every woman:
We must have the same music tastes as I also love whitney. That song is also such a hard song to sing but you did it with such ease. I did think it was slightly old fashioned compared to everyone elses choices and I would like to see something a little more fresh and unique but I still liked it 8/10

Emily

Underneath the tree:
This is a great song its got such a nice pop feel to it and I loved your version. In fact I will be downloading that when I get home 9/10

Thousand miles:
This is such a great guilty pleasure. You made it sound so cool and it suited you very much I think your a dark horse I think you may make the final your stepping it up just at the right moment 10/10

Lydia

Last christmas:
I told jake about my version of this song because I thought it would suit you and it really did. You could have a hit with it 10/10

Party in the usa:
Miley is a good friend of mine and I think she would be a fan of you. That was cheesy but I loved it. If you make the final which im certain you will I would love to duet with you 10/10

Miss Molly

Have yourself a merry little Christmas:
Wow that was beautiful. Standing ovation from me 10/10

Home run:
Its good to see you girls are back. That had so much attitude and sass and I think you girls are the most versatile act and I see a great future ahead for you 9/10

Nickys team

Sabrina

The power of love:
I agree with jake I wish it was more of a fun song but I thought it was good. Your vocals are amazing 8/10

Break free:
Thanks for singing my song!! You did a pretty decent job of it aswell it had me dancing 8/10

Sandie

2000 miles:
I just didnt get this song choice. Your voice is amazing there were so many songs you could have sang and unfortunately that didnt work 5/10

Video games:
That made up for your last song. It was so so good well done 9/10

Owoajes team

Josh :
Someday at Christmas:
I am a big Stevie Wonder fan and its the kind of artist I could see you being like. This was lovely 9/10

Hometown glory:
Putting your own stamp on an adele track isnt easy but that was incredible 9/10

Colton

Shake up Christmas:
I didnt like this but im a colton fan. That just wasnt your best I have to be honest 6/10

Best of you:
Absolutely the best of you. Best of the night too well done 10/10

[Owoaje1993]

Hi guys I had bad connection with my wifi tomorrow or during the week I'll be mr Scrooge and say my comments

[Owoaje1993]

If I can say any negative about the comments it will be I don't like the fact that th other judges would prefer a well known song because if I keep on choosing well known songs then I'm being too cliche and a bit obvious also boring I wanna do songs that people have heard and haven't heard I also like songs which isn't well known I have a few unknown well songs next series

[Owoaje1993]

Laura
Song1:All I wanted for Christmas was a amazing performance did I get it of course I did 10/10

Colton:I would admit mate I was struggling with to choose a song and I didn't want to be too obvious and make it corny it wasn't perfect but you did ok 8/10

Sandie:I'm sorry but I wish I was 2000 miles away from that performance I hated it after that I could see you being 2000 miles away from the competition 1.5/10

Lydia:I'm sorry but I absolutely hate that song however I love you and I loved your spin on the song so far best performance and your best performance just incredible if your not in the final then this is rigged 10/10

Josh:Beautiful song beautiful performance you done brilliantly well done mate 9/10

Sabrina:I'm sorry I don't get what that has to do with Christmas however you done quite well 8/10

MissMolly:Ladies Ladies Ladies I'm so glad your back I was kicking myself in the teeth when I didn't save you I would have preferred an upbeat song however you all sounded besutiful 8/10

Emily:You just make me happy each week I loved that 9.5/10

MissMolly:Girls that was a touchdown I loved that and I think it was a bit better then your first song 10/10

Sabrina:Welldone you done a pretty good job 9/10

Josh:This was just magical I loved everything about that I can see you in the final2 10/10

Emily:You have just sung one of my all time favourites and also from one of my favourite films white chicks this was your best you have to do this again in the final 10/10

Lydia:Omg that all I'm saying 10000/10

Sandie:i was a bit bored with it th performance reminded me of staring at a KFC bucket with no chicken in it I'm sorry sandie but I think it's game over for you 3/10

Colton:This was the bomb and by far the best of you Colton you totally killed it brillionto and better than your previous performance 10/10
