now THIS guy should be getting attention, not this cher lloyd crack-child looking thing. anyway her ratings are getting worse and worse every week. look at how much emotion he pours when he sings, his expressions. you can tell how calculative and meticulous this guy is at perfecting all of his performances. this guy can SING, his eyes scream of his intelligence and sensitivity, and he isn't hard to look at. at all. ^_^
I am a massive fan of adam but Adam does not sing this IN TUNE perfectly! DONT LISTEN IF YOU DONT LIKE Aiden!! How could it hurt your ears, you must have a problem with them jane girl!
@CocaineHabbit - OK, fair enough. It's a "mute point" then. I've listened to other Artists/Bands that are full of emotion, and they can sing as well. So, with the bands I listen to you really get the best of both worlds. I was just stating my opinion [and pointing out Aiden's flaws] that's all. Also, I'm not too fresh with the American lingo but I think the term is supposed to be "moot point"? I don't know...
fair play to you...personally i really don't mind if a performer is vocally perfect if they are capturing the aesthetics of a song, but then my favorite artists include the likes of bjork, courtney love and siobhan donaghy.
@22YearOldBoy you realize he's making it his own right? he's not just trying to do an exact copy of Gary Jules? I find Aidens version quite good to be honest. No disrespect to Gary Jules, but if I was offered the choice to watch one of them perform this live, I would pick Aidens performance. Go search it on youtube before you disagree. I have a ton of respect for the intensity Aiden brought to his performance in Mad World; it absolutely fit the song perfectly.
I feel like such a fangirl, wathcing this vid again and again and again, but I honestly think his version is better than the original.... okay I'll admit its also cos he's fit ;)
This boy has an incredible intensity in his voice and performance. I could not get his song out of my mind for a week. Unfortunately I expect that they will push him in a different direction during the shows and he is too young to keep up his voice as an artist against the pressure to be like everyone else.
i disagree. i think dannii will stand by his artistic strengths as a performer...i mean just look at him singing "diamonds are forever" this week for example. she'll probably push him to experiment with different sounds, but she wont push him to being something hes not.
@CocaineHabbit: after yesterday's show I am hopeful that you are right. Dannii seems to have a good hand with the boys, Matt and Paije did good as well. I found it interesting that the judges were commenting on Aiden's intense performances as well, and were in disagreement about it. They see it is magic in the life performances - just look at his face when he sings - but can it translate into a hit record, can it compensate for some of his vocal weeknesses?
he'd have to seriously compromise in order to be a best selling recording artist and go down the popstar route.
having said that, the odd 'artist' does sometimes manage to translate into mainstream music without having to sugarcoat their integrity. bjork has sold a bucketload of records over the years, lada gaga is obviously doing very well for herself and theres the likes of goldfrapp and m.i.a.
absolutely amazing performance. the best version of that song I have heard. he is sooooooo good. the most mesmerizing X factor performance ever. Matt is also amazing.
disagree with the judges that he needs to 'connect' more...end of the day, hes an artist. if people are too lazy to really take the time to look, then thats their problem and not his.
I really want him to win. It was a shame about last nights performance, but he'll bring it back...clearly one of the most interesting singers on the show!
@CocaineHabbit Well I lived in the North west my whole life and I am pretty sure know one I know ever said it like that, Unless you mean the north east but I new a few Geordie's and I can't see them saying it like that lol .. but meh suppose it depends where abouts.
Good performance but i like Adam Lambert version way more, this guy cant hit Adam Lambert notes and is no were near as talented as Adam, sorry but is true, but good performance, he gave emotions, but vocally, ouch.
At 1:45 there's that part when he goes higher on the 'very very' bit and it just makes the song even better. The little changes make a big difference.
undeniably, this is indeed one of the best-est version of Mad World. It's my first time listening to Aiden's singing and he blew me off. Totally love his interpretation of the song; bringing the emotional lyrics right at your face. it gave me chills, and his expressions and voice definitely brought out the best of the song :)
@SjoerdxX I have to agree. He's got an amazing voice! I can listen to him all day, but I just can't watch him. He acts like someone who's on drugs or having withdrawal symptoms or something. I guess that's just his way and I'll get used to it, but it kind of freaks me out. That being said....he has a good chance of winning the whole show (based on his voice), And it definitely doesn't hurt that he's good looking.
@iiNUGG3T This song is amazing, so much i reported *aiden x factor* for distubing content, because this song is so incredible, it makes it look like he is destroying this art of gary jules
@iiNUGG3T Yeah I actually know what you mean, I though he was acting this one but on like his other performances he kinda does the same things. But I love him :)
Oh and btw, to the people who are saying his vocals are weak and out of tune....This is pop music we're talking about, not auditions for King's College :) It's all about the emotion and performance in pop music, and this guy delivers on both. He's also singing (live) better than many recording pop artists can do *coughs*CherylCole*coughs*....
Beautiful...I was genuinely moved when I first watched this, a real goosebumps moment :) Basically, X factor is just an entertaining show full of cheesy pop and manufactured performances, but this guy seems to really care about what he's doing. And this take on Mad World is perfect imho, captures the sad, sweet vibe of Gary Jules' version, and the moody, slightly psycotic feel of T4F's original. But it sounds original because Aiden has this half-nervy, half-diva thing going on...Love It :)
@MrSamu85 thats what he's trying to do, its all about capturing the audience & letting them feel the song through his movements & eyes. May look strange but it works!
I love Aiden so fricking much. If he doesnt win, the show is fixed :) x And they already know now whos gunna win, so he BETTA win <3 He is amazing and unique <3. This song always makes me love it even more x - Talented people like this need to be noticed <3 xxx I LOVE YOU <3
Its even better than the original version. The way he looks singing this song makes me feel really mmmmmmm i can't describe it. AIDEN I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOU!!!!!!
That guy has got a real talent. And its not easy to bring something new and fresh to music world. When we thought we actually heard everything then someone like him appears mmmmm. Fantastic.

Ever since - to my utter outrage and devestation, Nicolo got voted off Aiden has become my new favourite- his performance was best if the night by a mile then Simon said TRAYC was best of the night, WTF?!?!
one of the best performances of the night... and he reminds me of jackie sparrow.... something with the way he moves his hands, hahaha.... It was pretty dramatic though.
i loved loved this performance , it me fave song so i was soo happy when he started to sing it , he also sang it veryyyy veryy well i thought and its quite an emotional song and he did it great justicce by putting so much emotion into it , well donee aiden :)
It's at least the 20th time that I'm watching this video. So amazing! I ignore talent shows most of the time, but this guy is more than awesome. Aiden, you have a fan from Hungary. :)
15 people have a big fat penis on their forhead. This guy is AMAZING. Star quality. He's different. He sing's it like a mad man, like he's living in a mad world. That's perfect charisma. He has the x factor so if he doesnt win it there's not justice. AIDEN <3
don't get this. all he did was copy every move of Adam Lambert including siting on the same dang chair and then standing at the exact same time.
his mentality going into that performance was, "ok, i'm just gonna do everything exactly like adam and then i'm gonna pretend to be all intense when i sing."
@braydenbd9 Nonscence aside from Aiden being told to sit on a chair for half by the directors everything else was different. Which if you had watched both performances you would know!
Aiden sings alot of the song directly into the camera making eye contact with the viewers at home whilst Adam was obscured for most of his. The body language and posture is entirley different and yes those details that an artist put into a performance matter. They also sing it in very different styles.
Lol thats bullshit. Firstly it's not his choice when he stands and when he sits. Secondly this is a lot different to adam lamberts performance, and in my opinion this is far far better.
@brunopappalardo i didn't see it as awkward - more a total committment to the music and lyrics. i just hope he was able to let go of the madness afterwards, it's the kind of song that works on so many psychological levels in the singer and the listener. with respect, robbie
after ive listened to this i just want to dwell in the atmosphere of the song and listen to it & never stop :L dont know if its jst me being weird but ive just watched it 4 four times one after the other :L fucking unparalleled performance, best ive seen on any x factor. aiden is undoubtedly the winner, if not, the world hasnt been done justice.
Possessed is right. Almost looks like he's wearing a strait jacket. U can tell he's nervous from the shaky microphone. This all adds to the performance tho. Aiden gives a far more atmospheric performance than Adam Lambert, I had goosebumps,
Bloody he'll I can't get Enough of this guy! My favourite by far I voted for him like 20 times no joke!! Woe he's goergous too!! Aha Aiden to WIN!!! Xxxx
when you listen and watch him sing, he pulls you into his song and you can really feel the emotion when he sings. he makes the song his own! aiden is truly an amazing singer and tbh he HAS to win x factor.(:
actually, even if he doesn't he is still bound to be successful ! x
He can't sing in tune and he peaks too soon, emotionally, in my opinion.

15 people have a big fat penis on their forhead. This guy is AMAZING. Star quality. He's different. He sing's it like a mad man, like he's living in a mad world. That's perfect charisma. He has the x factor so if he doesnt win it there's not justice. AIDEN <3

don't get this. all he did was copy every move of Adam Lambert including siting on the same dang chair and then standing at the exact same time.
his mentality going into that performance was, "ok, i'm just gonna do everything exactly like adam and then i'm gonna pretend to be all intense when i sing."

@braydenbd9 Nonscence aside from Aiden being told to sit on a chair for half by the directors everything else was different. Which if you had watched both performances you would know!
Aiden sings alot of the song directly into the camera making eye contact with the viewers at home whilst Adam was obscured for most of his. The body language and posture is entirley different and yes those details that an artist put into a performance matter. They also sing it in very different styles.

Lol thats bullshit. Firstly it's not his choice when he stands and when he sits. Secondly this is a lot different to adam lamberts performance, and in my opinion this is far far better.

I've never thought so much of an X Factor performance that I've played it repeatedly until now. It's a stunning version of the song.

he sings really good but his acting too much and really awkward
brunopappalardo 1 year ago
@brunopappalardo i didn't see it as awkward - more a total committment to the music and lyrics. i just hope he was able to let go of the madness afterwards, it's the kind of song that works on so many psychological levels in the singer and the listener. with respect, robbie

He sings with a lot of emotion, very convincing and he puts the 'madness' in the song! By far the best contestant.

Best performance of the night,simply because of the intensity & emotion & then good vocals on top of that.
Oncee2010 1 year ago
Possessed is right. Almost looks like he's wearing a strait jacket. U can tell he's nervous from the shaky microphone. This all adds to the performance tho. Aiden gives a far more atmospheric performance than Adam Lambert, I had goosebumps,
