Jeff Gutt was amazing How dare you say he was the worst! He got a standing ovation! Plus the song almost broke the Top 100 of all of iTunes and was No. 3 on the Rock chart. Plus how can you compare a Pop/Soul voice of Carly to a Rock voice I will never understand. Both equally OUTSTANDING performances! Have you even heard his rendition of Hallelujah better than anyone I’ve ever heard sing that song!

Sorry, love Jeff Gut. He just needs to shake it up a bit more physically and really let loose physically. Musically he is almost there.
Alex & Sierra. Sierra was so hot tonight and really sang well. Maybe Bublé advise helped her to get over her insecurity and the critcisms. Funny that Cher was one of the witches of Eastwick as these two really are the new Sonny and Cher.
Rion is so spunky – she reminds me of Judy Garland – young and old. I liked last week’s song better, but it did show a new side of her.
Josh Levi’s twirl is great, but he needs something more in his dancing – perhaps despite Simon’s words he needed to throw in a bit of tap dancing for this song!
Preferred the bowtie and tie of the other two members of Restless Road and would have preferred a more big band old-fashioned song.
Lillie got shafted in the group sing – she really nailed it in the rehearsal as Bublé said.
Ellona for once sounded real and not a beauty pageant contestant – I can see her singing Ten Cents a Dance.
Glad I am not voting tonight – too many great performances. Bublé needed to smile more during his performance or sing a Christmas song, I don’t know. But his mentoring was great.

This is turning into a merciless turkey shoot for Alex & Sierra, with no pardons in sight from the President. And you’re right – Feeling Good? Really?? This was as flat as Caroline Pennells attempt at “As Long as you Love Me” was inaudiibly lame. I have to believe that neither one watched x-factor last season. If they did, they certainly missed two key performances. Now, all I want for Christmas is for season 3 of x-factor to end!
