I seriously can't explain how over the moon I am for Richard, He deserved this win so badly and rightfully so. Every single performance away from the the minute he stepped on the stage blew me away and showed his massive heart every single performance he delivered Just to see him win this season just makes me so happy not only for him but his wife and also Heidi's first Golden Buzzer to win AGT is something so incredibly exciting to see and I just can't wait to see what Richard does next in his new chapter!!
I will say this has got to be one of my favourite finals we've had in years as I could have honestly seen any of the 10 acts win this season, But I was rather surprised Roni Sagi & Rhythm made the top 2 as in my opinion I thought it would be Learnmore Jonasi as not only we haven't had a stand up comedian win AGT but to have seen him against Richard would have been excellent and other acts like Brent Street, Hakuna Matata Acrobatics AIRFOOTWORKS just to name a few in my eyes could have won any other season. It just goes to show the level of talent has been this year and I just cannot wait to find out what they in store for us next year
@Gleekygal2010 in my opinion I honestly can't see Richard not win after that peformance last week even if it may be predictable because but I've never wanted someone to win so badly than Richard as he has been a massive standout since his auditon and I really do think he'll win and with you mentioning the betting odds for Murmuration & Putri to be the top 2 last year I honestly thought it would be Putri Vs The Ramadhani Brothers and to be honest I still think they should have been that top 2
To be honest I could see Sky Elements grabbing at least 2nd
@Gleekygal2010 If you don't mind me asking but who are you rooting to win Season 19 because personally I thought he was amazing last night and him doing another Journey song was just amazing to see! I've never wanted a contestant to win more than him he has really become an inspiration to me and to see him win would be so amazing! Who are you thinking could win?
Now it's time for my predictions who I think will win this season and to be honest it's crazy to think how fast this season has been
1. Richard Goodall - The biggest reaction of last night and Richard overall has been not only my favourite but has been the fan favourite from the very beginning. With now 24M views and to be honest his peformance last night for me summed up the whole entirety of this season and I think gave one of my favourite peformances of the entire season! I don think I've wanted a contestant to win more badly than this man and I'm praying he does
2. Sky Elements - Now I'm going extremely bold here as I know a lot of you guys are not the biggest fans of them and that's completely okay as everyone is allowed an opinion. Personally I wouldn't have them as winner worthy but with them closing the show and I feel with the wow factor I could see them get 2nd or 3rd and I'll be honest I was once again moved to tears with their peformance as my respect for The USA is beyond and I feel the public would get behind them
3. Learnmore Jonasi - Since the auditions up until now I've had him in a top 2 with Richard and while I'm really hoping that happens sometimes the comedians end up getting 3rd like Josh Blue and Ryan Niemiller and I have a feeling he might be in that group of comics that could end up in 3rd place even though I'm really wanting him to get at least 2nd
4. AIRFOOTWORKS - Probably my most controversial pick here as to be honest I really want to see them win and I think they would be amazing winners overall but I have this feeling they are going to try get the Murmuration like last season where they could not end up winning which I'd be gutted if that happend as they are worthy of winning and I hope we see them on Britain's Got Talent Series 18
5. Hakuna Matata Acrobatics - I'm a little bias here as they remind of The Ramadhani Brothers from last season who are in my eyes one of the best act to ever grace this show. Despite the minor mistake they made their peformance blew me away and I'm really hoping the audience get behind them as I just love the whole act and what they do
I can't believe that The Final has happened and everybody brought it tonight in one of my favourite Finals in all the years I've watched AGT so here is my ranking of Tonight's Final but I will say it was extremely tough to rank overall
10. Sebastian & Sonia - (10/10)
It's so great to see Sonia back and running after her injury she faced in The Quarter Finals. For me this was their best performance they've done all season and the chemistry between the 2 is just beautiful to see. They were amazing tonight and I hope great things happen to them
9. Roni Sagi & Rhythm - (10/10)
I just can't watch their act without having the biggest smile on my face. They make me feel so joyous watching them and I think it's just amazing to see what that dog is capable of doing, I'm so happy they have made it this far as since they auditioned I wanted them to make The Final and I'm delighted they managed to make it here
8. Dee Dee Simon - (10/10)
To be honest I wasn't fully into the song she sung probably because I have heard the song many times but regardless I thought she nailed it and she is someone I'm hoping gets a huge career out of doing the show as she mentioned she works as a nurse, She should have her own show she's that good she is
7. Solange Kardinaly - (10/10)
I've said this countless times that I didn't think anyone would come close to Lea Kyle but she is up there! And not only that but her stage presence is amazing aswell as the tricks themselves are insane! I don't think female magicians get enough credit as she is worthy of her own Vegas show
6. Hakuna Matata Acrobatics - (10/10)
Despite the mistake at the beginning they delivered once again another thrilling and exciting performance and I couldn't be more happy that they've in The Final as these type of acts are in my eyes worthy of Las Vegas and could star in Circus O Lay. I absolutely love them tonight and I'd love to see them make at least The Top 5
5. Brent Street - (10/10)
Just when I thought they couldn't top from The Semi Finals last week and they did that! The creativity, the dedication and the hard work they put in their act is sensational! They are the type of Group that's worthy of going all around the world and I hope they get that opportunity because they are so amazing!
4. AIRFOOTWORKS - (10/10)
I stand by this that they are one of the best dance groups to ever grace the AGT stage. What they do is transcending and always leaves me wanting more and more, Once again they were incredible tonight and I really hope after the show we see them do Britain's Got Talent as they deserve to go global as they are just absolutely breathtaking
3. Learnmore Jonasi
I absolutely love his energy, his spirit and overall he is such a brilliant comedian, The jokes always deliver and like I said he is so great what he does and I've been wanting a comedian to win AGT for so long and I really becomes the first to do so
2. Sky Elements - (10/10)
Every single peformance they have delivered never fails to blow me away and this was one of those moments, I had tears in my eyes watching them and to see them do a routine about The American Dream with the song choice was exceptional! To be honest after that peformance alone I could totally see them grab the victory and I wouldn't be disappointed in the slightest if they able to pull it of
1. Richard Goodall - (10/10)
What a peformance to end of as this man is just everything! Every time he sings it comes straight from the heart and that peformance for me summed up the whole entirety of this season alone because of. Nothing would make me more happier if he walked out with The 1M Dollars as he truly desserves it and I've never wanted a contestant win it more than him
For me Ashes & Arrows would have definitely gained that spot. I absolutely loved their semi final peformance and was probably their best one. They got better every times they performed so I would have loved to have seen them get that 11th spot in The Final as they really grew on me
I've just found out some extremely upsetting news about one of the members of Los Osos High School as one of their members Emily Gold has passed away via suicide
I really don't want to get into loads of detail as firstly I don't think it would be relevant and also it's really sensitive so I'll link the article if anyone wants to check it out: Emily Gold, Los Osos High School Cheerleader and Dancer Dies in Tragic Incident - GhanaCelebrities.Com
Again I don't fully know if I should be sharing this but I really want to share this across as I feel it would be nice to honour her in a way
Here's My Early Predictions For The Final
Top 5:
Richard Goodall
Learnmore Jonasi
Sky Elements
AIRFOOTWORKS
Hakuna Matata Acrobatics
Bottom 5:
Dee Dee Simon
Sebastian & Sonia
Roni Sagi & Rhythm
Solange Kardinaly
Brent Street
Now going into The Final next Tuesday who I think is going to win for me It's so close between Richard Goodall and Learnmore Jonasi as both of them have been my top 2 standouts since the beginning and I think both of them are worthy of winning this show. AIRFOOTWORKS are on the same level as them as well so I'd love to see them win or at least get to The Top 3 but I have to say after Sky Elements' performance on Wednesday with their tribute to Preston's daughter and in a way a tribute to the 9/11 victims I have a feeling they could win this season as they have this uniqueness factor and to be honest I wouldn't be upset if they did
This week's results were bang on and I'm 6/6 this week with the acts who made it to The Final which I couldn't be more happier with overall
I'm so delighted Roni & Rhythm made it as since the beginning I had them as my finalists pick and to have another dog act back to back make it to The Final like Adrian & Hurricane last season makes me so happy even more so I can't wait to see them again next week
For me Sky Elements are really up there as the ones to beat after their peformance on Wednesday because that peformance was the most emotional and one of the highlight moments of this season. So the fact there in The Final is not surprised and I'm honestly so happy to see them there as to be honest I can very well see them take this
Absolutely no shock Learnmore is here because I've been wanting a comic to win this show for ages and now he is there I think this is finally the season that potential happens so I'm absolutely over the moon for him
Solange has really started to become one of the favourites as she has been blowing me away since the start and to see a quick change artist in the final since Lea Kyle in S16 is amazing and I feel she could really suprise us
I knew Brent Street one of Howie's GB's would make it through and they were also extremely desserving I loved their peformance and I feel there are one of those dance groups that keep on surprising every single time so it's so great to see them through
And of course the man himself Richard I couldn't be more happier to see him in that Top 10 just everything about the man is so special and him in general just a warm hug (Don't take that out of context) He is the one I'm so excited for next week and I'm praying he sings Glory To Love By Peter Cetera for The Final as he would bring the house down
I have to say I'm extremely gutted there isn't a wildcard this season as for me I would have given that to Ashes & Arrows as they'd grown on me so much through the season and they gave their best performance so to see them to it's quite gutting to say the least
Here is my prediction who I think will make it too The Final
Top 6:
Richard Goodall
Learrnmore Jonasi
Sky Elements
Brent Street
Ashes & Arrows
Roni Sagi & Rhythm
Bottom 6:
Solange Kardinary (If they have a wildcard which I'm hoping)
Alex Sampson
Young Min
Pranysqa Mishra
Kelsey Jane
Reid Wilson
@Gleekygal2010 I totally agree with you about Sky Elements because The Final would be shocking if they don't make it. Their performance really moved me to tears and It's so rare to see Simon tear up like that. For me they were the highlight of last night and probably of the season with that performance alone with it being the exact day 9/11 happened which in my opinion was the perfect tribute
Tonight I thought was just incredible with almost everybody stepping up their game but overall it was such an amazing episode so here is my ranking of Tonight's Episode with my honest thoughts and opinions
12. Young Min - (8/10)
I can't be the only one who was just underwhelmed with this performance. I was expecting something more exciting & incredible to top up his previous peformance but it didn't which is upsetting as the previous 2 times he performed I loved so I think he is almost for sure going home
11. Kelsey Jane - (8.5/10)
Technically she is amazing and with her being a dentist is even more insane but there was something there that didn't quite click for me. Probably because I've seen many aerelist acts like this and no one could beat Aiden Bryant but I felt there was something missing but that's just my opinion
10. Alex Sampson - (9/10)
I'll be honest while I thought he sounded better compared to his previous peformance I'm still shocked he made it here over Bboy Samuka who was more desserving but I've got to give credit to him regardless as he does have a good vice but I feel this could go either way in terms of the voting
9. Reid Wilson - (9/10)
I loved his voice this week and the song was amazing! There is something about this young man that screams star quality and I know in a few years time he is going to have a huge career following in his brothers footsteps when he was on The Voice in 2021 so I'm excited for the next chapter what he does
8. Pranysqa Mishra - (9/10)
High Hopes is one of my favourite tracks which I'm always playing on Spotify but she took that song a while different version as I wasn't expecting her to do a ballad of it but I thought she did it brilliant and I think she's got a decent shot but she is up against some big competition
7. Solange Kardinaly - (10/10)
She is Las Vegas ready! She is so amazing of what she does and I didn't think anyone could be on the same level as Lea Kyle from S16 but after this week she has given herself a shot on!among it through as she brings everything more surprising each time she performs and it's so refreshing
6. Ashes & Arrows - (10/10)
They have really started growing on me since The Quarter Finals. I was really excited to see them this week and I thought it was their best performance yet, The harmonies were amazing especially with Jonathan's lead vocals giving me chills I'd love to see them in The Final as they have really grown on me
5. Roni Sagi & Rhythm - (10/10)
The whole routine had me smiling from ear to ear and every single time they perform have me really intrigued to see what they do next. I've said this from the moment we saw them audition is that I've been wanting them in The Final and I think they will make It through as this is one of my favourite dog acts to be on AGT since Adrian and Hurricane last season
4. Brent Street -(10/10)
Once again just when I thought he couldn't do anything else to blow me away they just did that with this performance. It was spectacular in every way the choreography was another level and I feel they have got the dark horse label on their back as they are coming for it. I'm hoping we see these guys next week
3. Richard Goodall - (10/10)
I wasn't expecting him to that that song but he absolutely nailed it and was a huge step up from The Quarter Finals. Every time he sings it comes straight from the heart wherever it be up tempo or a ballad and he really found his confidence. I'll be amazed if he isn't in The Final next week as he truly desserves it and I'm praying he does. He is the definition of "The American Dream" and just desserves everything
2. Learnmore Jonasi - (10/10)
All I can is that we need to see this guy in The Final! Every joke he delivered had me rolling on the floor and to be honest I haven't laughed at comedian like him in a very long time watching this show. I've said this before with that this show hasn't had a comedian win yet and I still believe he has what it takes to win this whole thing and be that first comic to claim the trophy
1. Sky Elements - (10/10)
I wasn't expecting to put them as Number 1 this week but I just gave to say that peformance actually really moved me to tears and was just absolutely breathtaking, I know people who have lost close ones and with this year marking 9/11 where people tragically lost their lives and family members This for me was the perfect tribute to Preston's daughter as she is watching down extremely proud of this routine and I'll be honest. This would have been my Golden Buzzer if they had it and I think it would be so great to see them in The Final as it's just mesmerising
Here are my Pre-Show Thought & Opinions On The Line-Up for The Semi Finals going into tonight!
Richard Goodall - Automatically he is a guarantee lock to make it through. Ever since his audition aired in the 1st episode and with 24M views he has been the clear fan favourite to win this season and has been one of my personal favourites this year. Everything about him is the definition of "The American Dream" and is just an incredible human being so I think he is almost guarantee to make it through & I am praying he sings Glory To Love by Peter Cetera as he would bring the house down
Ashes & Arrows - I think these guys have real potential as their Quarter Final performance blew me away and to be honest since then I've had them as this seasons darkhorse. I think if they step it up once again I think the public will get behind them and possibly vote them to make The Final but they have got some competition but at the end of the day I'd love to see them make it through as they give me strong Broken Roots vibes
Roni Sagi & Rhythm - Out of all the dog acts AGT has had Roni & Rhythm are up there as one of my all time favourites. There past 2 performances blew me away and with Howie saying on The Quarter Finals he would have given them the GB I think they'll make it through and I'm really hoping they do as I love their act
Alex Sampson - I'm still shocked he made it to The Semis over Bboy Samuka, For me while I loved his audition and putting him at number 1 on my ranking for his audition episode His last performance really felt flat so I'm still surprised how he made it here. I'm just hoping his "Fan Girls" don't go crazy for him as I feel he is almost for sure going unless he actually steps it up
Young Min - To be honest I don't have him for sure out as he could step it up again which could give him a good shot but with Solange Kardinary making it through last week I feel like he is in hot water as not only the votes will split between him & Solange but I feel that even if he does do well I'm not fully confident going through even though at the same time I "Could" see him make it
Sky Elements - There is something about these guys that I absolutely love and I know that might be a really unpopular opinion. Their audition blew me away as it was something I had never seen before in the 5 years I've been fully watching this show not including the spinoffs. To see these guys in The Final would be so great as they are so unique and I think they are one of my favourite acts in terms of the unique factor
Reid Wilson - He has really started to grow on me after his previous performance. I think he is an excellent singer and has an unbelievable voice and I think he has got real promise is. But with Brent Street up against him who is also Howie's GB from episode 4 I feel like Reid could be overshadowed by them but I feel this could go either way
Kelsey Jane -Another contestant I'm shocked made The Semis as in my opinion Sabrina should have made it over her. For me I feel while she is really good I think she is a bit bland so I feel she is going to be a cannon folder this week as I can't see her progressing as we have Sebastian & Sonia from last week who got Simon's GB
Learnmore Jonasi - Alongside Richard I think he is also a lock to make The Final because not only he is an amazing comic I love everything about this guy! And with this show yet to have a stand up comedian win I seriously think he could be the first so like I said for me he is also a lock to make it through
Pranysa Mishra - Again this is another one I feel could go either way because she is absolutely brilliant and I could see her making it through but for me she has that Courtney Hadwin type vibe where I think a lot of people may think she'll make it but at I don't know. I wouldn't be upset if she does but I won't be shocked either if that makes sense
Solange Kardinary - I think she really came out of her shell last week as her performance was incredible, I had here quite under the radar before the QF but she has really sold herself as one of the favourites and I think to see her in The Final would be epic as she is Las Vegas all over her and her talent is just out of this world
Brent Street - Regardless what happens they are surly going to make it through and I'll be honest I feel they are one of those dance groups that keep on getting better each time they perform and to be fair I'd be pretty shocked if they don't make it as I think they are amazing!
For me It's a 2 horse race between the first 2 Golden Of Learnmore & Richard as I feel both of them have really stood out from the pack ever since they auditioned and they have been my top 2 since the very beginning and with AIRFOOTWORKS now in the final and I think they'll have a shot of winning. Overall I think Richard is the clear favourite to win
To be honest I'm really hoping we see AIRFOOTWORKS, Praveen Prajapat, Jo De Rijck & maybe Bao Cuong compete on BGT S18 as I would love to see them all audition and maybe see them make The Lives
Here are the acts I personally think would have made a week 5 if AGT stuck with The Top 55
Andrei Burton
Corkey Miller
Dian Rene
Helen The Foot Juggler
Jabu & Cornellio
Jo De Rijck
Mervin Mayo
Mia Soleli Shachez
Praveen Prajapat
Super Silva Jr
Xpogo Stunt Team
For me it was a rather poor Quarter Final. Only 5 of them stood out and one of them didn't make The Top 5. For me Oscar Stembridge would have been my choice for Week 4 wildcard if he was able to
With the semi finals being Wednesday just looking at the lineup almost immediately Richard & Learnmore are guaranteed locks to make it through in my eyes as I think both of them have got the winner type edit as Richard for me right now is the chosen one with 23M views and having the biggest fan base while we haven't had a comedian win AGT for me Learnmore would be the perfect comic to win this year as he is naturally funny aswell as being so likebale overall
Sky Elements, Roni & Rhythm & Solange I feel will also make it through as with Sky Elements they have the unique factor and every peformance has blown me away, Roni & Rhythm in my opinion are in my opinion one of my favourite dog acts on AGT so I'm hoping we see them as I've been betting them to make The Final since day 1. Solange with 400M overall and her unbelievable peformance on Tuesday she's got a real shot to make it through
Now the last spot I'm really between Brent Street and Ashes & Arrows because with A&A I get Broken Roots vibes from them as they have got this darkhorse narrative to them and I feel they could have shot to make it through if they step it up once again. And with Brent Street they seem like favourites to make The Final as a few people said after their auditon they could win so the finals spot I'm really torn between the 2 but I feel there are the acts I think make The Final
Richard Goodall
Learnmore Jonasi
Sky Elements
Roni Sagi & Rhythm
Solange Kardinaly
Brent Street OR Ashes & Arrows
@Homerun214 we have no idea what he'll be singing but I'm hoping he sings Glory To Love By Peter Cetera as I think he would bring the house down
Here's My Early Predictions For The Semi Finals
Top 6 Finalists:
Richard Goodall
Learnmore Jonasi
Sky Elements
Roni Sagi & Rhythm
Solange Kardinaly
Ashes & Arrows
Bottom 6:
Pranysqa Mishra
Alex Sampson
Young Min
Kelsey Jane
Reid Wilson
Brent Street
Going into next week Richard & Learnmore for me are almost guarantee locks to make it through as in my opinion they are the best 2 Golden Buzzer acts this season, Sky Elements have the unique factor to them and I think that is what I think will boost them up to make it through. Solange I feel with her being up against Young Min those 2 are definitely going to split votes but I feel she will most likely be the one to go through out of the 2 magicians we have remaining. Roni Sagi & Rhythm in my opinion as a dog act fan I've been hoping we see them in The Final since day 1 they auditioned so I'm staying true to that which means the last spot I'm so torn between Ashes & Arrows or Brent Street. With Ashes & Arrows I've been saying this for weeks that they in my eyes could be real darkhorses to make The Final especially with them getting the country vote and if the step it up again I could see them make The Final. Brent Street this week blew me away again and their choreography is absolutely steller to watch so I think they have got a real shot to make it through aswell
