Olly Murs Live – The Semi Finals

Posted by admin in X Factor Live

Olly Murs Singing Can You Feel ItWith just one show remaining before next weeks all important X Factor Final the nerves were well and truly kicking in for all the contestants.  Tonight’s performances needed to be nothing short of spectacular to guarantee their place in the final three.

Opening the show, Olly started with the Jackson 5’s “Can you Feel It”.  Dressed all in white, Olly gave another confident performance and all the judges agreed:

Louis – “People need to vote for Olly, because he deserves to be in the final”

Danni – “We can all feel it in the room tonight … not only do you have the whole package, but you were in fact grabbing the package” (again referring to the infamous Olly buldge).  She went on to say, “If you pull out two performances like that, you have to be in the final”.

Simon “Do you know what I loved about tonight Olly, you should have been a bag of nerves … but you put on a great show … you look like a star, you’ve got the presence of a star, I just cannot imagine you not being there next week”.

Olly Murs Singing We Can Work It OutNext, the contestants had a free choice, with Olly chosing to sing “We Can Work It Out” by the artist that got him so spectacularly through his first ever audition – Stevie Wonder.  First to the stage again, Olly sang his heart out with his last chance to secure his place in the finals.

After the performance, Louis said, “Another great performance, you’re consistent every week … I like the fact that you didn’t pick a very well known song”.  He then went on to say, “… you remind me a little bit of Jay Kay from Jamiroquai”.

Danni wasn’t so sure though, “I’m not sure that that song showed the best of your vocal ability … but you know what, if I was sitting at home now next to a phone, I’d pick it up”.

Simon thought that Olly, “thoroughly, thoroughly deserve your place in the final next week and I think you’ll be there”.

After a nailbiting finish, Olly’s name was the first contestant to be put through to next week’s final!
