Can you actually play it like a 6 seat challenge though? That's what I'm doing playing the videos and giving feedback and then saying whether they get a chair or not but they might not keep that chair of someone better comes along

So can you play it like that? Nicky did it a bit rushed to be honest you should have given it suspense like the real X factor as to if they keep the seat

okay, you can also make your choices tomorrow, and if you want to play it like a real 6 seat challenge, you can do that if you want to Jake



well i've chosen 5 acts straight away, and then there was a sing off between Fleur and Terry McDermott, and Fleur became my sixth act



sorry that i've done it rushed, i'll play Judges Houses, like real judges houses

[Strictly Jake]

It won't let me quote the videos

But here are my acts in the 6 seat challenge

First up is lyric 145 singing supercala... From Mary poppins

Well lyric that was a very suprising performance, that's one strange song to perform, but you know what it absolutely paid off, that was so incredible, it had me and the audience out of our seats dancing to it, and the performance was out of this world. You guys really do excite me so take a seat

Next up is 4th impact with problem

Well girls that was incredibly polished, great singing great dancing and a great look and feel about you, I would love to work with you take a seat girls

Next up is Alien uncovered with do it like a dude

Girls you have so much attitude, you really killed it, your unlike any girl group I've seen and I think you could prove very interesting, take a seat

Now it's time for Union J with love story

Well lads that was very well sung and it's obvious the audience love you, your lovely personalities shone through and I think you will be so easy to mentor however I'm not sure if your unique enough to stand out but take a seat

Now JLS with hallelujah

That made me emotional, you all can sing, you have a great look, the ladies love you, I see potential, take a seat

Now Alex and Sierra

That was beautiful it's obvious how much you love one another and a duo like you is very rare, I can see in my mind what I would do to help you improve, however I am a bit scared about what the audience may think about you, would they find you boring, I'm not sure but take a seat please

So I'm Halfway through and my seats are full, still with 6 acts to go some acts will lose their seats but who???

some good acts i'm excited who will be your top 6

sorry that i didn't do it this way, but still i'm happy with my overs team

[Mystic Mock]

Interesting results so far ShakeyJake10.

[Strictly Jake]

Up next is Roxxy Montana with man in the mirror

Ladies that was really great singing, your very gospel and soulful and each one of you have a lovely voice. But looking at the people who already have a seat, I know in which way I could mentor them and how I could help you, with you girls I'm really not sure if I can do anything to help you improve, so it's for that reason and I'm really sorry that I won't be giving you a seat, but well done for getting this far

One direction with viva la vida

You guys look like your typical boyband, the girls absolutely adore you, when you harmonise it sounds good, some of you sound good singing solo, the only trouble is, there were a couple of you that were really off key in that performance, and I have already put two boy bands through that performed really well, also the boys that I have put through they just seem to link together well, whereas with you guys something isn't right there just is something off and I can't put my finger on what it is, also I don't know how I could mentor you to make you unique, so although I'm most likely to regret this decision and I'm sure you have a bright future ahead lads I won't be able to offer you a seat but keep up the hard work and you will make it one day

Restless Road with wake me up

Well that was a nice rendition of the song, you all have good voices and I would quite like to work with a country artist. However I found myself bored watching that. Your good but looking at the talent on that stage already I don't feel you match that so I'm sorry but I can't take you boys any further

Fifth Harmony with give your heart a break

yes yes yes!!! That was brilliant, you all have amazing voices and you make a fantastic girlband. I absolutely have to take you through! But my seats are full. I will have to swap someone. This is really hard. Right ok, there are already two girl groups up there so I think I will have to get rid of one. I'm so sorry to do this. Alien uncovered you smashed your performance and your great at what you do however with the different themes are you going to be versatile enough, I don't know if your voices are strong enough for say a ballad, so I'm going to have to lose you I'm sorry girls. So fifth harmony please take aliens seat

Up next is same difference with Reach

Oh you two I do love you. It's your personalities that got you this far, your lovely people and hope you do have success in the future, see there isn't a lot of family friendly music around people like s club and steps are gone so we need someone like you, but I don't think it's going to work on this competition, I think you should try and get into kids tv, that's your niche. I'm not giving you a seat but I am a fan of you

Last up is only the young with come on Eileen

Well I do love that song and you all sounded great, but your called only the young and I think I would have liked to see something a bit more modern an youthful but that's why I want to mentor you because you certainly have talent and I can help you. I will be giving you a seat but I have no idea who to lose!! I think I'm going to have to lose one of the boy bands but I have no idea who to lose your both great. I'm going to have to have a sing off. So JLS and Union J can you please pick your sing off song

So going through is

Lyric 145
Fifth Harmony
4th Impact
Only the young
Alex and Sierra

And either JLS or Union J

well i agree with you, i think Fifth Harmony could be a contender



i'm excited to see what choices Mock will make with his girls category

[Nicky91]

my special guest mentor at Judges Houses, each mentor can have a special guest singer


mine is RedOne, the songwriter for Lady GaGa, most notably wrote Poker Face, The Edge of Glory and Bad Romance

[Mystic Mock]

Can I do mine now, or is it too early?

A very good list ShakeyJake10, Fifth Harmony is probably your biggest threat going forward.

yes Mock, you can do your 6 seat challenge now

[Mystic Mock]

Originally Posted by Nicky91

I've been looking forward to this probably too much.

There's been good selections so far, I think we're definitely in for some good live shows.

Anyway up first doing an Acoustic version of Decode by Paramore... It's Lauren Platt!

Youtube video

Verdict - A very interesting take on a modern classic Rock song, I'd be interested to see what you could do going forward, especially an uptempo number, take a seat.

[Mystic Mock]

Can I do mine now, or is it too early?

A very good list ShakeyJake10, Fifth Harmony is probably your biggest threat going forward.

[Mystic Mock]

Up next singing Take Me Home by Jess Glynne... It's Monica Michael!

Youtube video

Verdict - You've got a very powerful vocal Monica, it would be interesting to hear what you could do with a proper R&B number as I feel that that would be your sound in the charts, take a seat.

Up next with Wings by Birdy... It's Abi Alton!

Youtube video

Verdict - It might be a bit predictable for you Abi, but sometimes playing it safe does work as it showcases your nice and soft vocal, with gentle high notes in the mix, take a seat.

Up next with If I Were A Boy by Beyonce... It's Hannah Barrett!

Youtube video

Verdict - It might be a little safe, but you've shown that you've got a very powerful voice that can hit a lot of different ranges, there's a lot of potential with you going forward, take a seat.

There'll be more after the break.

[Mystic Mock]

Up next with Rise by Gabrielle... It's Jade Ellis!

Youtube video

Verdict - Jade you've got a really nice voice, however I'm not sure if I would know how to mentor you, I'm a bit torn but... take a seat.

Up next with Stan by Eminem ft Dido... It's Misha B!

Youtube video

Verdict - A very brave performance Misha B, and I feel that it worked as you pulled off the intensity, vocal, and rapping off very well in my view, take a seat.

Can any of the next performers rob a seat off of any of my current top 6? Find out after the break.

[Mystic Mock]

Up next with Back To Black by Amy Winehouse... It's Sophie Habibis!

Youtube video

Verdict - Wow! there was just something very standout about what you did just there Sophie, there's a real Soul vibe to your voice, I'm gonna give you a seat, but you'll have to replace one of my other six.

The act losing a seat in my top 6 is... Jade Ellis!

I'm sorry Jade, you had so much potential, but it's a really hard lineup to go through at the minute, come back next year.

[Mystic Mock]

Up next with I Am The Fire by Halestorm... It's Sally Chatfield!

Youtube video

Verdict - Hello Sally! great vocal and performance, my only issue with you Sally is that you might not connect with the voters, but my heart is overruling my brain here and I'll give you a seat.

That means one of my 6 is losing a seat.

And that act is... Abi Alton!

I'm sorry Abi, it's tough competition this year and you just wasn't as ready as the others were, come back again next year.

Up next with Bedshaped by Keane... It's Bella Ferraro!

Youtube video

Verdict - Not the most predictable song choice out of Keane's catalogue, and I did like it, I'm really interested to see what you could do going forward with your unique sound, take a seat.

Now that obviously means another act is losing a seat.

And that act is... Hannah Barrett!

I'm sorry Hannah, you nearly got through it's just that you was slightly less unique than some of the others for me, I'm sorry.

Find out after the break to see how the 3 remaining acts do.

[Mystic Mock]

Up next with Ho Hey by The Lumineers... It's Sydnee Carter!

Youtube video

Verdict - It was an interesting performance, and you've got potential as a singer Sydnee, however I just don't know if you've come on too young and that you need to mature a little bit as a vocalist and a performer, I'm afraid that I'm not giving you a seat.

Up next with Before He Cheats by Carrie Underwood... It's Caitlyn Shadbolt!

Youtube video

Verdict - A very energetic performance, your vocal was a bit hit and miss in parts, but there's potential there, I'm torn here and I'm gonna give you a seat as you could add to the live shows.

That means that one of my 6 is losing a seat.

And that is... Monica Michael!

I'm sorry Monica, a very strong performance, but it's been a very tough round for me, really come back next series.

My last act up singing Lush Life by Zara Larsson... It's Georgia Denton!

Youtube video

Verdict - A very fun performance, with a solid vocal, however are you just too young to cope with the live shows? After thinking long and hard about it... I'm sorry Georgia you will not be taking a seat.

Leaving my top 6 as.

Lauren Platt
Misha B
Sophie Habibis
Sally Chatfield
Bella Ferraro
Caitlyn Shadbolt

I still want to say thank you Nicky91 for letting me play this game.

Thanks Nicky91.

I think the ones that I'm most excited by on personal preference are Brad and Danielle out of your category.

I'm looking forward to Only The Young and Lyric 145 the most out of ShakeyJake10's

And Reece Mastin and Seann Miley Moore out of Kirk & Will's.
