The next big thing!

[Nicky91]

first my acts

Fantasia Barrino: i loved this acoustic version of a world cup bop, really loved the soul vibes to the song thank you my queen 9/10

Jeff Gutt: way out of your comfort zone man, i thought this was a lovely party :clap1: 9/10

Kimberly Caldwell: lovely entertaining show from you, vocally it wasn't perfect but entertainment it was perfect :dance: 10/10

Julio Iglesias: let me be entertained by you, oh yes yes yes yes, i would want you singing and performing this song a million times, wow love it 10/10

---------------
YOUNG: this was a good song, performance wise it was a bit dull, i needed more show 6/10

Rachel Lester: umm from calling you crap in week 1 to fab right now in week 2 :clap1: :clap1: a well deserved 8/10

Amelia Lily: this wasn't good, i'm disappointed i couldn't detect any fault in this performance 10/10 wow i'm impressed amelia wow

Sheldon Riley: vocally it was strong and impressive, but are you the next big thing, no i'm not hearing what i haven't heard in the music industry 4/10

The CutKelvins: this had vibes of a lovely campfire, with lovely acoustic guitar and some relaxed singing, yes this is good, really what your style should be 9/10

Nichole Destiny Lee: ooh this performance makes me a fan of you tbh, vocally you aren't the best, but your never giving up mentality is very admirable, and who knows maybe you can become really loads better in a few weeks time 9/10

Cher Lloyd: is this a hall of fame worthy performance, no not at all, it felt a bit too rushed, sorry this wasn't your finest hour sweetie 2/10

Seann Miley Moore: love the song, it suited you definitely, cannot wait for next week 9/10

Trilogy: slay, this puts you guys in the number 1 pole position contender spot for the win 10/10 :worship:

Majela Zeze Diamond: here she comes Majela proving to me she can slay and perform the proper way yasss diva i stan you now :clap2: 10/10

Only The Young: Jakey you made it very very tough for them this week, queen songs are Always most difficult to sing for me personally, this was a decent attempt i guess 8/10

Jamie Miller: :eek: from comfortable style to a way out of comfort zone jamie this week, i am SHOOK 9/10

Pentatonix: if queen ever needs a stand in band for them right now to perform bohemian rhapsody, you guys are perfect for that role, it was flawless, just as good as the Original :shocked: 10/10

Leah McFall: this is one of my personal fave songs, no one can be as fab as Vanessa herself, but Leah you did this song justice with your own performance :D 9/10

Katie Price: good performance, vocally a bit pitchy at places, but i hear plenty of potential for some more weeks definitely 8/10

Sam Perry: unique, very Original, you can be the next big thing i think based on all this originality 9/10

[Nicky91]

i just gave scores but just for separating the good from the bad, and from the great

[Morgan.]

https://open.spotify.com/track/4o7YmecFjQ4hnKgwADR25B?fo=1

This is the Y.O.U.N.G song Jake, your link is broken

[Morgan.]

Y.O.U.N.G: You really got to shine in this performance and it was a great motivational tribute to the team. 10/10.

Rachel Lester: I still stand by the fact you can't sing and this was just as terrible, but due to the fact you get penalised for giving negative comments in this game it was amazing and can't be topped! 3/10.

Amelia Lily: I really enjoyed that cover and you showed what you are made of. 7/10.

Jeff Gutt: Nicky has really sabotaged you with this song and I'm really disappointed, it doesn't suit you at all. 5/10.

Sheldon Riley: You do have good vocals but again the song choice wasn't something that impressed me and it felt quite safe. You need to step it up next week. 5/10.

The CutKelvins: Your vocals and song choice really proved why you should still be here! 9/10.

Nichole Destiny Lee: See Rachel. 2/10.

Cher Lloyd: This really impressed. It was a little out of your comfort zone but you killed it and proved your worth. 8/10.

Fantastia Barrino: Better than last week, but you're still not proving why you need a place in this competition. 6/10.

Seann Miley-Moore: There's still a part of me which just cant get behind you and I'm not sure what it is. I just get incredibly bored. 4/10.

Trilogy: I pushed you a lot here, and I think you only just made it work. Vocals were on point though and the production was great. 9/10.

Majela Zeze Diamond: See Rachel. 2/10.

Only the Young: So, so, so much better than last week! You really picked up and showed why we kept you around! 7/10.

Jamie Miller: Wow, you really stepped up your game and gave us a reason to get behind you! 7/10.

Pentatonix: I just can't fault this performance - your vocals were amazing as always, the production was amazing and stepped up from last week, the song pushed you in a great way and you really slayed a Queen song! 10/10.

Kimberly Caldwell: I love the song but it really didn't suit you and I'm so confused why your mentor chose this for you. 4/10.

Leah McFall: I'm torn on this. You sung well but the song choice was horrific and it wasn't your style. 5/10.

Katie Price: See Rachel. And don't kill another one of the best songs in history please. 2/10.

Sam Perry: Great song, but it wasn't as good as last week. 7/10.

Julio Iglesias: It was better than last week, but you've hit two extremes. This is too upbeat for you, last week was way too slow. Find that balance if you come back next week. 4/10.

[Nicky91]

i chose these songs cause i didn't know any other world cup songs :umm2:

[Morgan.]

i chose these songs cause i didn't know any other world cup songs :umm2:

You could've picked motivational or inspirational songs too.

[Nicky91]

You could've picked motivational or inspirational songs too.

no, jakey told me the motivational and inspirational songs didn't have anything to do with the world cup :oh:

[Morgan.]

no, jakey told me the motivational and inspirational songs didn't have anything to do with the world cup :oh:

Well I said the theme was World Cul/Motivational/Inspirational

[Nicky91]

sorry but my acts were fab, Amy was so right, ur very strategic in your feedback Morgan :sad:

[Morgan.]

sorry but my acts were fab, Amy was so right, ur very strategic in your feedback Morgan :sad:

I've not been strategic I just don't think your acts suited the songs hey were given. There's been tons of World Cup songs, or motivational ones. Just takes a bit of research. I'd never heard of the song I gave trilogy, but after some research I found it fit them well.

[Amy Jade]

sorry but my acts were fab, Amy was so right, ur very strategic in your feedback Morgan :sad:

The irony of him crying about my ranking last round aswell. Jake take note of who it is causing any negativity.

Sorry for judging the acts in the best way I can, is that not what I signed up For? :shrug:

[Amy Jade]

Nicky your song choices were fine! I am listening now and I can see the World Cup theme in them all!

[Morgan.]

Nicky your song choices were fine! I am listening now and I can see the World Cup theme in them all!

That wasn't even what I critisised them for so maybe read my comments and then you can respond?

[Amy Jade]

Sorry for judging the acts in the best way I can, is that not what I signed up For? :shrug:

Judge how you like but when your acts get negativity you breed don't throw a tantrum and force Jake to change the format to suit you like you did last round :spin:

[Amy Jade]

That wasn't even what I critisised them for so maybe read my comments and then you can respond?

I read them...you called half his choices boring and said he sabotaged them etc. Very little about the actual video posted.

[Morgan.]

Can someone tell me how these games get along fine for years, then as soon as Amy joins one there's Drama every single week :eyes:

You know what its not even worth my time, idk why Amy has a problem with feedback to her acts (who can't sing, may I add) and why Jake basically told me to arselick because Amy doesn't usually play these games. It's pointless.

Myself and my 4 acts will be withdrawing from the Competition with immediate effect. Good luck playing everybody, can't wait to see all 4 of Amy's acts in the Top 4 after you're all banned from giving her scores below 9 in case it hurts her feelings :spin:

[Morgan.]

I read them...you called half his choices boring and said he sabotaged them etc. Very little about the actual video posted.

Yes but I said these because they didn't suit his acts at all. I watched the videos, thought they didn't suit the act, the next posted it. I never signed up to give everyone 10/10 and say how great it was I came to give feedback.

[Amy Jade]

Adam, Jake and Nicky all gave me low scores. I played up a rivalry for a bit of fun.

But Nicky definitely has a point about your scoring and comments.

me a ratings hit?

[Morgan.]

Adam, Jake and Nicky all gave me low scores. I played up a rivalry for a bit of fun.

But Nicky definitely has a point about your scoring and comments.

I'm gonna be 100% honest with you all right now. I am genuinely not strategic in my Scores. To use an extreme example - if someone gave Susan Boyle the song Waka Waka I wouldn't score it highly, no matter how good the video sent with it was. I know that doesn't suit her.

I've done research on all acts to see their styles and so when I'm scoring for a bad song choice it's because I don't think it would suit them, or have seen them attemotmsimilar before and not enjoy it.

That is 100% honesty because with everything in my life rn I don't have time to be petty over a game any more.

Amy I apologise for going after you in the way I have. I respect you as a member and think you're great fun, but I perhaps saw the played up rivalry as one I couldn't take as a joke.

Jake I do think that you have been unfair in the way Amy has been a priority coming into the game as someone who doesn't usually play these but it's all in the past and I get why it's important more members get involved.

If it's okay I'd like to withdraw my request to, well, withdraw because I want to take this as the bit of fun it's meant to be (but it doesn't mean I'm giving special treatment to anyone's acts I'm continuing to Score in a fair way, imo)

[Amy Jade]

The category I was left with were novelty and that was what I tried to bring. I never thought this was taken that seriously and all I tried to do was make my choices as fun as possible - the viewers seemed to enjoy it anyway.

But wouldn't want to disrupt you guys so I'll say thanks for making me feel welcome Jake and wish Nicky, Adam, Morgan and yourself the best with it but I quit. Sorry.

Oh no don't do that you're actually really welcome here :o

(Shangela was robbed though)

[Nicky91]

The irony of him crying about my ranking last round aswell. Jake take note of who it is causing any negativity.

you were honest to me in week 1, i had bashed your acts a bit too harsh and you wanted revenge, i can understand that now

Nicky your song choices were fine! I am listening now and I can see the World Cup theme in them all!

thank you Amy :hug: i also hear a sort of world cup vibe in your song choices, bit outside the box thinking but i loved your song choices this week

[Strictly Jake]

Right well this is going well.

Amy i would have wished you to continue

And morgan your taking it a bit too seriously

I think in light of these circumstances the game is cancelled so thanks for ruining it with your squabbles.

[Morgan.]

Was enjoying this but ok

[Nicky91]

no i don't want this to be cancelled

[Strictly Jake]

Well i dont want it to be over either but if two judges cant get alomg and are influencing the game in a negative way it makes things difficult

Amy are you still willing to play?

[Strictly Jake]

Right fine i gave amy long enough to answer me

Amy i didnt want you to quit you were bringing a lot to the game and i found your novelty acts hilarious, but if you want to quit thats ok

We will still carry on this game. This weekend will be a top 16 acts and its nickys turn to choose the theme

[Nicky91]

the theme for this week will be One Hit Wonders

To be honest only Ghost was popular in my country. But I can change it if you wish to.

Cat: welcome to the third live show of the next big thing!

Last week we sadly lost amy and her team but the show must go on. The top 16 acts will now be taking on one hit wonders and scoring and voting will go back to normal. This week 2 acts will be leaving so its important our acts give their very best

Lets kick the show off then. We are starting with

[Strictly Jake]

Jamie Miller with Sax

Well i do usually like this song but im not sure it suited you. For me you havent had a big moment yet i still find you a bit forgettable 6/10


Kimberly Caldwell with Stop

This is a boring song and it didnt do anything for you. Your still very much in the background your not striking me as the next big thing 5/10


Amelia Lily with Teenage Dirtbag

Epic song! It really suited you and i love the whole punk princess thing you have going on. Your like the next avril lavigne. You smashed it 10/10


The cutkelvins with Prayer in C

Yeah very good song choice. Your impressing me every week you bring something fresh each time. Your the ones to watch 10/10


Sean miley moore with Say something

Blurgh I hate this song now its so overdone. You just havent gone up a level since the beginning. You could be special but its not there yet 4/10


Julio Iglesias with Baby I love your way

This was actually a great song choice and your strongest so far but I don't see you as the next big thing. Are you going to sell out arenas worldwide? I doubt it. But still pretty good 8/10


Only the Young with Shackles*

This is one of my anthems I love it! You girls shone this week. Lads you took a back seat on this one but if you get through i aim to show you off next week 9/10


Y.O.U.N.G with Somebody that i used to know

I dont know what it is but i just dont feel connected with you guys. You have potential but there is something missing at the moment. I quite liked the song though 7/10


Sam Perry with Sail

This was fantastic! I look forward to you every week you bring something new to the show and your the dark horse I think you could potentially win 10/10


Fantasia Barrino with Groove is in the heart

No no no. Absolute novelty song your too good for this. You will be in danger now im afraid 3/10

Leah Mcfall with Lovin you

Oh my word. That was perfection. I think you should top the leaderboard with that. It was unbeatable 10/10


Trilogy with Rude

Perfect song choice. I connect with you as a group too. I think morgan needs to invest more time with you instead of y.o.u.n.g 9/10


Sheldon Riley with Fight song

Bit of a cheesy song choice but we have come to expect that from you. I like you and hope you get far in the competition 8/10


Jeff Gutt with Somebody's watching me

Your nickys strongest over. It was a bit naff but you do have an amazing vocal i just hope in future you get better songs 7/10


Cher Lloyd with Flowers

This song really suited you and i think you will be safe with it. However for me i need you to have the big moment. You havent had chance to rap yet and i want to show that side of you 8/10

Pentatonix with take on me

Firstly a-ha arent a one hit wonder. One of my favourite songs the sun always shines on tv actually did better than this song. It got to number one. That aside i also like this song and yet again you smashed it 9/10

[Nicky91]

Kimberly Caldwell: i had shivers over my body from this performance :clap2: Jakey no no this wasn't boring by far, it was emotional and haunting 8/10

Julio Iglesias: this was good, hats off mate :D 10/10

Fantasia Barrino: sassy fierce and fun :clap1: :dance: 9/10

Jeff Gutt: i wanted to say is, you chose this song yourself, even though i had a different song in mind for you at one hit wonder week, was this good it was solid but it felt boring to me, we need to make your performing skills better if you want to be up there with the faves 9/10

Jamie Miller: hun i wanna play that sax after this amazing performance yassss it was divine 10/10 :worship: :worship:

Amelia Lily: don't listen to jakey, you need to show more Amelia, your own style i thought this performance was a good sneak peek for what you really can do, contender to win i say 10/10

The Cutkelvins: very current song choice, but somehow i can more see shock exit in you guys rather than title contender tbh 8/10

Seann Miley Moore: i agree with Jake now, but more because it sounds all the same what you do, do people really want a concert with only dull slow songs, sorry but i disliked this performance a lot 1/10

Only The Young: you would not expect a gospel song for you guys, it did work but in your comfort zone you're at your best 7/10

Y.O.U.N.G. : the song i really like i must admit, but does everything come together nicely, no somehow performing skills are awkward in places, vocally it sounded ok 7/10

Sam Perry: another slayage from you, i am speechless, ok one bit of criticism, keep surprising us 10/10 :clap1:

Leah McFall: vocally you are perfect, looks well you look gorgeous babe, but are you the next big thing, i don't know yet 9/10

Trilogy: agree with Jake, that your coach should find even better song choices cause i think you guys are fab, you just need that extra little bit of wow factor to get top marks from me 9/10

Sheldon Riley: cringey performance, but i thought it suited you well 6/10

Cher Lloyd: this was such a underwhelming performance, nothing what screamed wow for me, you deserve it so much to have that one moment to shine sweetie, aww i feel so horrible to give this point :bawling: 6/10

Pentatonix: a-ha songs are vocally difficult because of all the high notes in the song, i thought you guys made it your own and not a karaoke performance which i appreciate, you guys could be the next big thing i think 10/10

Why do we have a guest judge?

18:pentatonix: This was a carcrash 1/10

My favourites

Only the young and Cher Lloyd

Well you should score leah higher because its not a kate bush song! Its minnie ripperton :shrug:

[Morgan.]

Jamie Miller: I don't think your voice suited this song unfortunately. 6/10.

Kimberly Caldwell: You have a good voice, but this was boring. 5/10.

Amelia Lily: This really suited it, and I loved the performance yet again. 9/10.

The CutKelvins: This was a perfect song and you smashed it. 10/10.

Seann Miley-Moore: I have trouble connecting with you as I know, but this was your best so far. 6/10.

Julio Iglesias: Jack of all trades, master of none. I really don't know what direction Nicky wants you in - from opera to pop and now reggae? 4/10.

Only the Young: An inventive song choice that suited you perfectly. 8/10.

Y.O.U.N.G: It was difficult to find a one-hit-wonder song for you, but you did well with this. 9/10.

Sam Perry: You continue to impress me each and every week. 9/10.

Fantasia Barrrino: You finally got given a song you suit really well, but the vocals let you down. 6/10.

Leah McFall: Your vocal range is INCREDIBLE! 9/10.

Trilogy: This was finitely suited to the theme (Owoaje thinking they weren't a one hit wonder is ABSURD) and you smashed it. 10/10.

Sheldon Riley: I was ready to insist you were sent home thanks to a string of terrible song choices but this really stepped up. 8/10.

Jeff Gutt: Not your best week by FAR but it was good enough to see you through. 7/10.

Cher Lloyd: Rak-Su originally ruined this song, but you made it better again. 8/10.

Pentatonix: Others may think it doesn't suit the theme, but in the end I saw it in so many ‘One-Hit Wonder’ Lists online and chose it. Either way you SMASHED it. 10/10.

[Morgan.]

I said owoaje can be a guest judge at some point but didnt say when. Makes it a bit different to have a guest judge who is neutral so its good timing really

Just a shame it's someone who likes to slate the majority of my acts again

[Owoaje1993]

Just a shame it's someone who likes to slate the majority of my acts again
Hey if I like something I like it if I don’t like something I don’t like it I’m just being honest doesn’t matter whose act it is also magic have other popular hits but they just weren’t popular in the Uk but in other countries the songs were popular

[Morgan.]

Right Pentatonix have 2 tens and a nine (because they are amazing) but you give them a ONE and say it's a car crash? It's just not consistent :laugh:

[Owoaje1993]

Right Pentatonix have 2 tens and a nine (because they are amazing) but you give them a ONE and say it's a car crash? It's just not consistent :laugh:
That’s just my opinion not a fan of the song

[Nicky91]

Morgan :facepalm:


i gave Julio the best one hit wonder song i could


you sabotaging my acts :oh:

[Morgan.]

Morgan :facepalm:


i gave Julio the best one hit wonder song i could


you sabotaging my acts :oh:

Give him consistent songs and I'll be able to put his scores up.

[Nicky91]

Give him consistent songs and I'll be able to put his scores up.

:hug: good advice thank you

[Strictly Jake]

Adam i need your scores

[Nicky91]

maybe he's busy

[AdamAdmiz]

I will try to do it, actually I went on vacations

[Nicky91]

I will try to do it, actually I went on vacations

:love: how was your vacation?

[AdamAdmiz]

I'm still on them haha. But they're good so far :)

[Strictly Jake]

This week has another twist

(Once adam has given his scores)

The act that has the lowest score on each team will face the sing off. They will have to choose a song they feel will get them votes from the public. Which is important, as only these 4 acts will be voted for by the public and they only get to save one act

(I will be able to see who votes for who so dont be saving your own act!!)


(Also i have also calculated the scores so far so i will know if your change any scores)

the subtle shade aimed at me :fan: after i had voted for my own acts multiple times :joker:

[Strictly Jake]

Definitely thrown at you nicky although there was a lot of other times in past games where blurryface only voted for his own acts and noone else

I also have to point out of the 4 acts in the sing off only onw will remain in the competition which means 3 judges will be down to 3 acts each

[AdamAdmiz]

I will post my comments today :)

[Nicky91]

good Adam :love: and then we can proceed with our game

[AdamAdmiz]

Jamie - We made a last minute song choice change and I hope it will pay off. We will see. I hope you will be safe because we have some interesting ideas for you. 8/10
Kimberly - I wasn't expecting this performance to be that good. But it was almost perfect. Great job. 9/10
Amelia - I think it was your probably weekend performance so far. Come back stronger next week because you are capable of big things. 6/10
Cutkelvins - It was really good but I want something spectacular from you and it wasn't. 9/10
Seann - We chose this song to show less vocal this week and more emotions. For me it was incredible. 9/10
Julio - I didn't like it, it was boring for me. 6/10
Only The Young - At first I didn't want you to be here, but proved this week that you deserve to be here. Great performance. 10/10
Y. O. U. N. G - It was really good performance gays, I think maybe one of your best.9/10
Sam - Sam, what can I say? You are phenomenal. 10/10
Fantasia - The song is a throwback and I liked it with you. Well done. 8/10
Leah -* It was amazing Leah, it surprised me but in a positivr way. 10/10
Trilogy - The song suited you I think, but the problem is I don't like this song. 8/10
Sheldon - You showed tonight that you really want to be here. You smashed it. I loved it. 9/100
Jeff -* I think it was the worst performance this week. Sadly I didn't like it. 5/10
Cher - In my opinion it suited you really good, it was more fun and uptempo. I liked it. 9/10
Pentatonix - I expected much better performance after last week, I'm bit disappointed. I hope you will smash next week. 8/10

Sam Perry: winner winner chicken dinner, this version i prefer above Beyonce's honestly :worship: :clap2: 10/10

Cher - A dodgy song choice but good vocals. 7/10

Trilogy - As much as I like you I don't think this song was good. It was in my opinion your worst perfromance. 5/10
Fantasia - I'm sorry, but this was boring. I was expecting much more after last week. 5/10
Sheldon - It was amazing, Sheldon. It wasn't karaoke, you really connected to this song. Great job. 10/10
Cher - I have to agree with Nicky. I prefer ,,Sirens'' type of songs for you. Today's performance was not bad, but also was not that much interesting. 6/10
Julio - I will be honest, I think it's your time to go this week. I did not enjoy it. 3/10
Pentatonix - I loved it, great original song, really positive. 9/10
Sam - I think Sam, that your performance was outstanding. Today it was more simple, but still you smashed. Well done. 10/10
Only The Young - I love how much fun you always have on stage. The performance was so positive. Overall it was good. 7/10
Jeff - I think you are the best act and most consistent on Nicky's team. Maybe it was amazing, but I think it's enough to make you safe this week. 8/10
Jamie - It was great. Again we took a little risk. Your high notes were mesmerizing. I am so happy to have you on my team. 10/10
Leah - I love this song so much, I think it suited you perfectly. Your performance touched me today. I have to give you 10/10
The Cutkelvins - You went out your comfort zone. I prefer you in pop, but it was not bad. I liked it, can't wait to see you next week. 7/10

The Cutkelvins

Im huge fans of you you know that but for me this was weak it just didnt go anywhere for me it stayed very one level and it didnt show off that star quality i was left disappointed 5/10

Sam Perry

For me this has been your weakest performance i love the original and not too keen when people change it up like this, i also feel that your delivering the same performance every week i feel you have something new up your sleeve to show us. It was ok but just ok 6/10

Leah Mcfall

Im honestly blown away you just sang for your life. I think you have a real shot at winning this whole thing! 10/10

Pentatonix

No im sorry this irritated me its a beautiful song and the way you just sang it didnt work i really didnt like it 3/10

Jamie miller

I feel that your the weakest left in this show now. The songs you keep getting dont amaze me i dont see where you land in the music market in terms of originality. I just dont feel your the next big thing 3/10

Cher Lloyd

I have to be honest there were a few pitchy moments here and there i felt your nerves tonight but thats because you have had a tough couple of weeks on the show and yet to prove yourself. I feel tonight you did so it was a song that really suited you you showed off your vocal as well as your rapping skills and I hope you get those votes 9/10

Trilogy

I actually really liked it. For me your one of my favourite acts when you get the right songs. I feel you still havent had that wow moment yet but im sure its just around the corner 8/10


Jeff Gutt

You smashed it i feel that song really suited you and im pleased nicky only has you to focus on as you have lots of potential to make it far on the show 10/10

Only the young

Aww guys that was entertaining you had a lot of fun up there! Your best performance yet 10/10

Sheldon Riley

You have just had your wow moment i absolutely loved it. You really are a contender in the show 10/10

Amelia Lily

That was so beautiful and emotional you could have a hit with it. Effortless 10/10

[Nicky91]

Jeff: you are my only act remaining, i feel so scared here right now, this performance of yours was again really good 9/10

The Cutkelvins: this was a decent performance i think, full of swagger 8/10

Sam Perry: unique, standout, divine, phenomenal and i say it MEGA 10/10

Leah McFall: Priscilla queen of the desert, my mom's fave movie i must admit right now as well, this was a good attempt at re-creating the same feels from that movie yeah i liked it a lot 8/10

Pentatonix: damn i wanted something more, and you gave me magic pure magic :clap1: :clap1: :clap1: :clap1: 10/10

Jamie Miller: this was good but coming after that incredible standout performance of pentatonix, it feels underwhelming 6/10

Cher Lloyd: i had goosebumps from this, thank you Cher only problem i have can you compete against the level of talent we have this edition 8/10

Trilogy: wonderful performance, especially since the choreography for this is so damn important, good job and so memorable for me 9/10

Only the Young: me personally i did like it, but i can see others not liking this very much, 7/10

Sheldon Riley: Mr Riley, Sheldon Riley shaken not stirred but with a license to entertain, wow this was a 007 worthy performance, mission accomplished my man 10/10

Amelia Lily: it was again good, but underwhelming coming after that divine 007 performance 7/10

Scores

[Nicky91]

Morgan come on, i'm being consistent with my song choices now :fist: and i thought you liked a bit of rock genre

[AdamAdmiz]

The Cutkelvins - I loved it. I really like the fact that you went for more alternative music. This is The Cutkelvins I want to see every week. 10/10
Sam - I think it was incredible. So mesemerizing. Everything about this performance was perfect in my opinion. 10/10
Leah - WOW, I'm so impressed by this performance. You are dark horse I think. 9/10
Pentatonix - I will be honest. It was not good in my opinion. It was boring. I agree with Jake. 4/10
Jamie - I really liked this, Jamie. We chose this arrangement to show your voice. And you did it. 9/10
Cher - I liked the arrangement. But your voice wasn't perfect today, sadly. You were out of tone sometimes. 5/10
Trilogy - Yes, finally, Trilogy I love came back. It was great. Well done. 9/10
Jeff - Jeff, it was great song choice and very good performance but since the half it became boring sadly. 7/10
Only The Young - I had so much fun watching this. You have great energy and I love that you are always happy in your performance. 8/10
Sheldon - WOW, I had goosebumps. It was so emotional and beautiful. I think it was one of your best performances. 10/10
Amelia - It was great performance. Good job. 8/10

[Morgan.]

Nope top 10 there are still 11 acts the leaderboard might have confused you because there was a couple of ties

Oh sorry :joker:

[Amy Jade]

If it is public vote I vote to evict Pentatonix :hee:

[Morgan.]

It's not so I vote Jamie Miller out

[Strictly Jake]

Yeah its not public vote this time around. I might start doing public vote for the top 10 but usually noone but only mentors vote in that anyway so its pointless anyway i will forget the sing off this time as im saving Pentatonix so even with nickys vote even if its a tie jamie received the lower score so either way he is leaving.

So top 10 next week. Whos turn is it to choose a theme?

[Nicky91]

i vote to evict Jamie Miller

[Amy Jade]

I would vote. I am unbiased too.

[Morgan.]

It will be on Monday to coincide with the first England match :cheer2:

Also just to let you know we all get a chance at picking the theme

Week 1: I chose throwback tunes
Week 2: Morgan chose world cup
Week 3: Amy chooses
Week 4: nicky chooses
Week 5: adam chooses
Week 6: I choose
Week 7: Morgan chooses
Etc

Is it my turn again?

[Nicky91]

i'm doomed with Morgan choosing the theme :skull:

[Strictly Jake]

Ok please vote next week amy

Yes its your theme pick morgan

[Morgan.]

Oh. I'm going for the ultimate Pop Punk mashup! The theme is ....

twenty one pilots vs Panic! at the Disco vs Paramore!

These span a ton of different genres and influences so there's something for all! Tyler Joseph, Brendon Urie and Hayley Williams solo ventures and/or features are also accepted

[Morgan.]

Pentatonix - Ride, by twenty one pilots (https://youtu.be/fdqBqIpuJLs)
Trilogy - Molly, by Lil Dicky ft. Brendon Urie
The CutKelvins - Miss Jackson, by Panic! at the Disco

[Strictly Jake]

Your kidding right? Haha

[Strictly Jake]

Amelia Lily: Still into you by Paramore
Only the young: nine in the afternoon by Panic at the disco
Cher Lloyd: heathens by twenty one pilots
Leah mcfall: the only exception by paramore

[Morgan.]

Your kidding right? Haha

No :hee:

[Nicky91]

Jeff Gutt: Jumpsuit by Twenty One Pilots

[Morgan.]

Nicky just a hint - that doesn't really suit Jeff (I'm sure Jeff doesn't rap) and probably wouldn't score many points.

[Morgan.]

I'd pick something like Emperors New Clothes (P!atd) or Jumpsuit (Top)

[Nicky91]

ok done changed it, still a current song but what might suit him a bit more

[AdamAdmiz]

The hardest theme so far
Sheldon - The Death Of A Bachelor by Panic! At The Disco
Sam - Emperor's New Clothes by Panic! At The Disco

[Strictly Jake]

Morgan are you still going to play this? If not its cancelled

[Morgan.]

Sure I'll finish this one

[Nicky91]

A stellar week

[Strictly Jake]

This week wasnt as bad as i thought it would be it was actually interesting!

My feedback

Sheldon: wow what a way to open the show it was theatrical and suited you amazingly well 10/10

Cher: we struggled a bit this week with you but you shone on the stage and showed your not just a one trick pony 10/10

The cutkelvins: im sorry but each week you seem to be getting worse this wasnt your week it was messy 6/10

Jeff: by far your best week to date 10/10

Amelia: you loved the theme this week its very you but it was time to show a stripped back emotional side which you did 10/10

Trilogy: it was interesting im not sure it was your best but it was good 8/10

Sam: this week was tough for an act like you but it was pretty special this performance it was memorable 9/10

Leah: i had no idea what song to give you and i feel i may have given you a weak song but it sounded great 9/10

Ptx: finally something that wasnt cheesy i loved this 10/10

Oty: you absolutely made the song your own well done 10/10

[Nicky91]

Sheldon - it was pretty much decent, not really what we expect from you but this was good as this was out of your comfort zone 8/10

Cher - rap suits you so this was just a bit too predictable for my liking, and we all know you can take songs to a new level and make them into emotional slow songs i am disappointed 7/10

The CutKelvins - good song choice, and now i'm starting to become a bit of a fan :thumbs: 8/10

Jeff - this wasn't my first song choice i had for you but Morgan advised me to use this one for you, performance wise this was solid, vocally it was real power i am amazed :clap2: 10/10

Amelia - we're still into you, sorry for the pun but you continue to keep us excited for what's coming next, you are a true popstar :worship: 10/10

Trilogy - decent(ish) performance, not your finest hour i'm afraid 6/10

Sam - Slay this was fab, it was unique and divine :clap1: 10/10

Leah - vocally it was nice, it had some enchanting moments here and there, but very underwhelming 7/10

Pentatonix - if this was the voice you guys had already won this with ease, but you gotta work on the performing skills more, i cannot ignore the vocal masterclass so 9/10 but if performance was better it would've gotten perfect score from me

Only The Young - what was this, i'm doubting if it was good or bad, you had done better in past performances for sure so now an 8/10 from me

[Strictly Jake]

Hi adam any chance you can give your scores please? This seems to be dragging a bit

[Strictly Jake]

Im leaving the forum so this is cancelled sorry

[Strictly Jake]

I have returned. Let me know everyone if your still up for playing this

[Nicky91]

[AdamAdmiz]

Ok thanks adam can you give your scores please

[Strictly Jake]

Adam are you gonna play?

[AdamAdmiz]

Sheldon - I think this song suited you. It was hard to choose a song for you. But I think you smashed it. 10/10
Cher - I hate this song. Your version was better than original, but still it wasn't good in my opinion. 4/10
The CutKelvins - I really liked it. Can't wait to hear more of you. 8/10
Jeff - It was good performance, Jeff. But I don't think it was great. It was average. 6/10
Amelia - I love that it was more stripped back. You showed your voice which is great. 9/10
Trilogy - It was good, but I expect more from you. You are capable of more. 7/10
Sam - You slayed again. It was spectacular. 10/10
Leah - Wow, you gave emotions and you showed your voice in that performance. It was mesmerizing. 10/10
Pentatonix - Better than original. But a bit boring in my opinion. 6/10
OTY - Once again you had fun on stage and I loved it. The song suited you and it was good performance. 8/10

And finally it's the cutkelvins with This is me

*https://youtu.be/CjxugyZCfuw

[Strictly Jake]

I'm finding this a tough one as I actually do like all of these acts when they are given the right songs but even in this sing off I still feel that all of the acts have been given the wrong songs. The mentors need to work on that. But I'm going to go for getting act that I see the biggest potential in, the act that is a bit more unique the act that could make it as the next big thing, but the mentor of this act really needs to step up his game choose the right songs and remember the artists your supposed to be

The act I'm saving are the cutkelvins

[Nicky91]

i save the cutkelvins

[Nicky91]

the next theme will be called ''Playing with emotions'' or Emotional Songs

[Strictly Jake]

the next theme will be called ''Playing with emotions'' or Emotional Songs

Only the Young with All I want

Hope Adam was happy with a ballad from you. I thought this was beautiful and showed what impressive vocals you have great way to kick things off 10/10


The Cutkelvins with Overcome

I'm sorry I get why this song is emotional but I'm actually now unsure if nicky even knows who you are. He keeps picking songs that don't suit you at all. This is not the kind of music you should be performing. I saved you as I saw potential but I fully regret that decision. This was a mess 1/10

Sam Perry with Sober

This really touched me and I'm sure it touched a lot of people watching. A great new side of you. You smashed it 10/10

Amelia Lily with I'm with you

I mean yeah maybe it was a risk giving you an Avril song given the comparison I already made to you and her near the start of this but I know what a fan you are of the song so you could bring over true emotion I loved it. However there were a couple of times o sensed your nerves 9/10

Jeff Gutt with Rise up

A song that I have always found a connection with but now a song that will remind me of a sad recent episode of Doctor who.* I loved your version but would you release it I doubt it I liked it though 9/10

Leah Mcfall with Stay

I mean you and this song go together like bread and butter it was perfect and really emotional it was a final worthy performance 10/10

Only the young with Despacito

Meh maybe a predictable song choice but I knew you would bring the party vibes with it I liked it 9/10

The cutkelvins with Balada

Awful. I think nicky wants you out of his team. I wish I could move you over to my team 2/10

Sam Perry with ya no quiero na

I just didn't get this it didn't work for me. Hopefully your first song will get you through 5/10

Amelia Lily with a crying in the club Genie in a bottle mashup

Loved it. What a star you are 10/10

Jeff Gutt with Vivir mi vida

I'm amazed at how you delivered this your one to watch in this contest that's for sure 9/10

Leah Mcfall with Whenever wherever

Complete new side to you but it showed a real fun side of you I loved it very much 10/10

The Cutkelvins

song1: emotional 100%, i know who you are but i don't want to go all the way cringefest pop songs either, i liked this performance myself 8/10

song2: latin madness overload :clap1: :clap1: wow wow wow, i wanna sign you guys up asap 10/10 :worship:

Jeff Gutt:

Song1: i had goosebumps all over me, thank you Jeff 10/10

Song2: personally i'm not a complete marc anthony fan but i just thought this song suited you the best, out of all latin song choices i could've picked, well done 10/10

Only The Young:

Song1: vocally it was great, but i just didn't get as much emotion as i'd hoped i would 8/10

Song2: disagree with Jakey, not predictable at all, funky latin party vibe going on over there, A-MA-ZING :clap1: 10/10

Sam Perry:

Song1: i like this song, and i knew you would bring your own originality into it, i was like hmmm what would it be great or bad, neither it is, Phenomenal :worship: 10/10

Song2: this was cheesy, fun, surprisingly good performance 9/10

Amelia Lily:

Song1: i love avril lavigne, Amelia umm i have respect you not trying to copy Avril cause no one can do an avril song like how she does it, wow come over here :hug: :clap1: 10/10

Song2: Jakey, well what more can i say after those well deserved words you said, Amelia don't ever doubt yourself, you are a star, you're a MEGA good singer 10/10

Leah McFall:

Song1: honestly you came after my Jeff in the running order, after that powerful performance of rise up, it was a bit pitchy here and there, but still you delivered on the emotional side and for that i give you a well deserved 9/10

Song2: this was a Leah McFall Original performance of a Shakira bop, wow if music was like a painting you would definitely be up there with the greats like rembrandt and van gogh :clap1: 10/10
