SIMON'S BACK! X-FACTOR

OK, I just got to watch all the second performances at ONTD.

I agree with Kate, A&S second song was boring for me.  Much preferred their first song.

I actually preferred all of them on their first song.

I feel Carlito was the only one who had two solid performances.  I actually think he won the night, even though A&S are by far my fave.  No idea who will go home.  I guess I actually hope it is Jeff.  I prefer the two groups and Carlito earned his spot last night IMHO.

FC I agree Carlito won the night. I also hope he makes the finale.

I think Simon will sign A&S and RR regardless.

Those making fun of RR will just look foolish in a year. Like E3 and 1D they will be successful.
There is a market for them. Highly doubtful they will become as huge as 1D but they will make good livings. They are all cute, humble and charming. They can sign. Yep they need more work harmonizing but that is coming.

I am on the fence with Jeff. He is a very good vocalist. IMO there is something off putting about him.
He will have a harder time making it in the biz IMO. His market is very small.

A&S are just stars.

They can be the new Sonny and Cher!!

I never cared for Jeff, even though I agree he can sing.

Yes Carlito was my favorite of the might. Pauline should be very proud of her hard work.

Alex & Sierra just have the star power and a duo like them haven't been around for years.

Restless Road is very good and I think they will have a nice career in country music. Young country fans need a heartthrob group too and they would make a great family concert.

Jeff is good but I just don't see huge things for him unless he becomes a member of a really good band.

There are some real heartthrobs in country music right now!  I have a huge crush on Hunter Hayes!!

FC, you're not alone as my mom is the same. I love him too.

I didn't watch last night's show in real time but then again I never really do. I always catch up later in the night or the day after. I did watch all the performances after Kelly's Christmas special.

I loved Alex and Sierra. They're by far the best and everyone seems to really love them. Simon truly as something special with the two of them.

Jeff was very strong vocally. He did a solid job last night. If he stands a chance at all in the business he needs to do music similar to the last song he did from Imagine Dragons. That song fit him incredibly well.

Carlito really brought it. He showed he wasn't going to go out without a fight.

Restless Road was very good and I loved the last performance. They need to stick with music like that.

If iTunes is any indication like it is with The Voice then it's pretty clear who will be the two competing for the win.


iTunes Chart Top 100 Rankings

#1 Gravity by Alex & Sierra
#5 Hallelujah by Jeff Gutt
#7 Say Something by Alex & Sierra (last week)
#11 Little Talks by Alex & Sierra
#39 Demons by Jeff Gutt
#64 Wanted by Restless Road

So you are saying Carlito is a goner?

It's quite possible FC. Either way the third spot is going to come down to him and Restless Road.

The first act through to the finals is

Spoiler:

So much for the Itune chart!!

  

 

Yes Hunter is cute but I don't think there is a group the ages of Restless Road.

Love Enrique!!!   

I am so glad Carlito is in the final!!! I never go by the ITunes charts. People will buy music but not vote all the tome and vice versa with people voting but not buying.

I was just going to say that Hatboro. Always room for some yummy Latin music from Enrique.

Well, I did say "if" you know.

Love that song from Enrique!!

YAY for A&S!!!!!!!!!

I'm thrilled for them!

Enrique is   

WOW just WOW

A&S gave me chills on that song.

They are just so charming and appealing!

This is how I feel about Enrique
     

He is one suave sexy man.

Oh man...... poor guys.

Chins up RR!!

1D didn't win and E3 didn't win.

They are just so nice. Just likeable. Especially Colton.

Congrats Jeff.

Well, Simon will probably sign them anyway.
