1. Eric - Piss off Simon with the whole acts have to be bigger. This was awesome. Not much else I can say.

2. Marcin - The man played Paganini Caprice 24, one of the toughest classical songs for piano, at double speed. Sure it was a bit messy, but damn was it amazing. He's my dark horse to win the whole thing.

3. Dom - I was worried when he was paired in the same week as Eric, but he stepped it up as well. While the trick might not have been amazing, his presence and charisma really made up for it. Tape Face appearing at the end was also really cool to see, and will probably help boost him into the top 5.

4. Berywam - Simon was spot on with the marmite comment. And I'm a big fan of marmite. Same with these guys. Sure, it was an odd song mix, but you know what? It worked. I'm doubtful they're going to make it through, but it was a good performance.

5. MacKenzie - The stage production was amazing. But honestly, that kinda worked against him. Because his vocals didn't live up to my expectations, and it just felt kinda lackluster to me. He's still an amazing vocalist, but this was not his best performance.

6. DYC - Emotional, but overall a mediocre act. I wasn't feeling it as much as I was feeling the audition. I much prefered Ndolvu from last week over these guys.

7. Benicio - The song felt like something I would hear on the radio. And I don't like radio. This felt really overproduced, and is probably going to work against him.

8. Emanne - Look, she's a great singer, but at the end it's just another child opera singer. Plus, the song choice kinda put me to sleep, not gonna lie. She's probably still going to go through, but I didn't like her performance.

9. Jackie - I find her annoying, but her material was decent enough. I don't see her advancing though.

9. Matthew - And here I was thinking we would see a good WC performance. He spent too much time on the ground, and by the time he got in the air he already lost quite a few people. Simon's buzz won't do him any favors either. I think he's done for, and somehow Ansley is going to be the only WC being voted through to the semifinals.

10. Lukas & Falco - Nothing I haven't seen before. Plus, the theme was just kinda weird.

11. Gonzo - nuff said.
