Just putting it into perspective it seemed like Simon did praise Marcelito but didn't praise his song choice. But as we know now that's bogus as the song wasn't Marcelito's choice.

It does seem to have become a topic with Simon upsetting Marcelito fans and Talent Recap seem to have a video dedicated to this, that I haven't seen yet.

Just thinking though, do we think Simon personally handpicked Marcelito's song choice or if it was producers higher than him?

I saw this because this has happened several times with the live shows of BGT, not sure about AGT. I remember even a performance live once where Simon actyally told a female singer he felt the show had let her down with the song choice, and remember thinkng it seemed quite bold of him to call out the show's choices.
