The X Factor Auditions - Altiyan Childs

[HollowedCero]

lmao he won wtf is with all this hate xD

[archangul]

Wow. I've neve seen an audience entranced by a performance like that. It's as if everyone was seeing the makings of something special. Even as he was faltering they were all mesmerised.

[WatsupBroh]

Rodrigo Alvarado was much better. I don't know how he didn't make it through and this guy did.

[11TommyB11]

Altiyan doesn't have the X Factor, nek minnit...

[XxWasabiRoxxX]

every one is hating on him because hes great their jelouse

[MsJudi54]

@XxWasabiRoxxX He didn't know the words to the song, & that kinda sucked, don't you think?

[XxWasabiRoxxX]

@MsJudi54 yeah he also kinda like forgot so he made up his own words

[galadrielportugal]

Love the man, the voice, the performer! He's mindblowing to me! :) 

[ellh9610]

i find his voice lovely, whatever you say..

[nikehaz355]

The only way he could of won was if one of the judges pulled a deal with him becuase it's really not fair that someone else missed out becuase of him

[ilikeweewees]

yeah y does everybody have to be haters hes the bomb

[MrMonster295]

He's amazing



[ucsggei]

Soooooooooo beautiful voice and excellent talent!

[ScreamShoutRAWR]

maybe I could win x factor if i go and forget the words ? is that the secret to win ?

[siraustin1]

yeah, he forgot the words.... but he still put heart and soul into it..... he was a worthy winner.

[1SydneySider]

is there a full audition ?

[TheSteelGeneration]

better than anyone on 2011

[elih48]

Sally was so much better

[ZigZagMag]

This guy won? seriously?

[Cillarocks37]

@ZigZagMag Hell yeah! Of course he did. He has a great voice & passion. Ronan saw brilliance in him. Altiyan hadn't sung for few years but when he reignited the fire, he rocked the stage every week. Over 49,000 fb fans in less than a year, cd went double platinum, 2 successful tours & amazing tracks from former band Masonia & he's so nice to his fans. Check out him doing Livin on Prayer & sex on fire - xfactor days as proof.

[Cillarocks37]

@ZigZagMag Oh, I forgot to mention....he had tonsilitus when he sang Livin on a Prayer - & he still sound awesome. Also try Beautiful Day.

[naturefreek1993]

how did he get through the auditions without knowing the words to the song?

[Cillarocks37]

I loved Altiyan from day 1 of auditions - loved his rock voice - man listen to that - its awesome! So he forgot some of the lines - like most people do especially at boot camp. So forgetting lines did not faze me. He won because after he reignited the fire - he rocked the roof off of xfactor every week!!!!! He's also an amazing songwriter - love his Masonia originals & originals played at his recent concert.. Loving his new single too - Ordinary Man. Get behind him fans.

[musicandgames11]

Why the fuck is everyone hating on him? if you watch other videos of him singing on the show, he's fucking amazing, and can probably sing way better then anyone commenting on this video.

[ArtFreakoftheFuture]

i really hate this guy!!! he so shouldnt have won!!!

[waxyladchap]

how did this dud win 

[naturalantiagingskin]

@waxyladchap try to watch all his performance after this you'l see

[waxyladchap]

@naturalantiagingskin i watched all of them i thought there were much better singers in the competition at the time than this idiot

[lilsxcmaz]

@waxyladchap shut up 

[infokill]

What did anyone see in this fruitcake....??????? FAIL.

[Tekstboekje]

@infokill He won...

[infokill]

@Tekstboekje So what?? He is still a fruitcake.

[tbag072000]

this guy sucks

[jackdanielmason1969]

How did he win you ask, well, after watching the show and seeing him live and actually talking to him, i can say he won because of his pure talent, yes he stuffed up, but the judges knew he could do it, they saw the good in him.

[pulaat]

how the fuck did he win?

[dancingnancy09]

@pulaat well yes based on that its a very good question,he definatly blew his audition but if you watch the shows you'll understand- i really didnt like him at all until his first live performance when in 10 seconds i went from thinking he bad performer who could sing ok to absolutely loving him-hes a testament to how auditions dont always show what an artist is worth and why people with even a little promise should be given a chance

[pulaat]

@dancingnancy09 everybody deserves a chance. That's ok! And he probably must have something....... I will not judge him for this performance. I think every contester is brave.

[naturalantiagingskin]

@pulaat try to watch all his performance after this you'l see

[boonjekill69]

and he won! wtf how does a singer who forgets the words TWICE win a singing competition he fucking sucks

[nataliaa39]

jamie archer is better in audition, but not better in live shows.

[Smiiletoomuch]

i din't see anything wrong with that performace, vocally and preforming (besides the lyrics) but that was great! :)

[justinsgiirl280]

lol how he forgot the words ahaha but yeah he won ahahaa

[kingkongrichmond]

JAMIE ARCHER SANG THIS BETTER!

[slushomatic]

@kingkongrichmond yup lmao and that girl that sang the Christina song was way better than this dude lmao!!!!

[Cillarocks37]

I loved Altiyan since the audtions. I loved his voice, passion and his "live and breathe" rocker vibe.....welcomed him into xfactor with open arms......So WRAPPED THAT HE WON YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH

[kettlesarenice]

on this audition he isnt very good but some of the songs he done further on in the show were amazing, dont judge him on this

[unkellu]

jamie archer from uk x factor did the same song much better !!!!.....this guy not good at all:(

[unkellu]

jamie archer from uk x factor did the same sing much better !!!!.....this guy not good at all:(

[TeamJacob1903]

:O

[TheAnkaraProject]

They don't look very impressed!

[gtwnrepn]

who woulda thought that this guy won lol

[gaijininja]

If all rock stars had to go through X-Factor, especially with that worthless slug feacal matter Sandilands, we would have no rock stars. Look at Barnsey, Brian Johnson, Angry Anderson, Toni Childs, etc. Frankly, atrocious voices, but can they lift the roof off when they perform? Hell yeah! Do they have what it takes to get millions of people around the world out of thier seats and start rocking? Hell yeah? Now we have Altiyan to add to the Aussie rock scene. Rock on Altiyan!

[Cillarocks37]

That's one awesome rock voice!!!! I KNEW he'd be great on xfactor. But he turned out to be BRILLIANT. Since he reignited the fire, he set the stage on FIRE. I don't usually vote but when he did Livin on a Prayer like that.....WOW, we could not let the music industry let this one get away!!!! He rocked the stage EVERY week.

[nemeth8D]

lol this was a disgusting audition really really bad.

[jihsjh]

The diehards didn't cringe at this at all. We could see what absolute talent this guy had and just wanted to see more and more. And we only get to see on tv what the producers wanted us to see. The judges also gathered there was more to this guy which was why they asked him to come back. His fans have just grown and grown and the ones, like me, that were with him from his first audition,have only grown to love him more.

[Grawp55]

@jihsjh I kinda agree with you. In fact , not having watched the show, I have a gut feeling this was a deliberately BAD audition because they KNEW THEN he had the voice and moves to win.

[Cillarocks37]

So he forgot the words (as so many others did and continued to do so) but listen to THAT awesome voice!!!! I could tell this guy was going to be awesome (his voice, passion, live & breathe rock vibe, his stage presence was slowly starting to show). I knew he was the full package. 4 sum 1 who was amazing b4, hadn't sung for a couple of years compared to those who never stopped, the pressure to do it agin, it is not wonder nerves got in the way...BUT then, nerves aside, HE TOTALLY ROCKED THE SHOW!

[liedABOUTmyAGE]

ouch

[Cillarocks37]

Loved his voice from day 1...so he forgot the words, so do & did others at auditions & bootcamp & they were given another chance but they weren't good enough to continue. Altiyan was. Loved his passion, "live & breathe" rock vibe.In xfactor, he totally ROCKED!He was awesome in Masonia - BEFORE xfactor.Of course after he got reacquainted to singing again, he was on FIRE! What a performer!As Kyle said at Grand Final, the resurrection of a star already there!

[miss16surfer]

I can not believe he won

[destiny6666]

@miss16surfer - I think the talent pool was very low this year so they gave this guy a second chance ... seriously, fan or no fan, this performance really should have been the end for him ... but history will show that he took his second chance and made the most of it ... a very very lucky boy :)

[overgrownjackass]

What happened? why he do a 2nd audition?

[gayanal124]

I love you.

[XILuvYouu]

Omg, Poor Altiyan. ILoveeYoou Soo Mucch Altiyan !!

I saaw Him Livee last Saturday, He is AMAZING !!

[Joshua2250]

Altiyan won x factor and yesterday i got his new winners album in nz

[blackdisguisesme666]

erhhhh

[tyminush]

And now he's the winner of the X factor, who would have thought?! Woohoo, he rocks!

[SuperMaria911]

The world needs someone like Atyian.Just look at him. He hasnt even started singing yet and you can see passion. I dont see any passion with todays artists. He truly beleives in what he sings, even when they arent his own songs. It really pisses me off that singing contests have shitty judges. They all should have immediately said yes to him even though he forgot the lyrics. Are they so blind to c that he truly loves music? When i first saw this i thought: "music is truly this guy's passion."

[destiny6666]

@SuperMaria911 - if you want passion look no further than Lady GaGa, Justin Beiber & Taylor Swift, heheheheheehe

[SuperMaria911]

@destiny6666 aww cmon man leave it.

[destiny6666]

@SuperMaria911 - you do realise Lady GaGa has sold millions & millions of albums :)

[SuperMaria911]

@destiny6666 u do realise that the beatles have sold over a billion copies? and that GNR sold over 28 miilion of their debut album? and that mozart wrote his first symphony when he was 6?

[denny5545]

@destiny6666 - so has Justin Beiber.....LMAO

[destiny6666]

@denny5545 - I got the "Beiber Fever" .... hehehehehehe

[jaxter854]

I don't care that Altiyan forgot his lines here. The audience annoy me, the looks on their faces. Despite the forgotten lines and the frustration and anguish so clearly showing on his face, I loved the look and sound of this man from this point. So glad he got through and that Australia got the chance to vote for him. I became a loyal fan from the first of the few hundred votes I sent for him and as a loyal fan, I will continue to buy all things Altiyan. Just love this man, a true rock star.

[destiny6666]

@jaxter854 - imagine being in this audience and getting this pathetic arrogant performance showing delusional confidence ... "the looks on their faces" was 100% justified ... the talent for this show was very thin hence why this garbage effort was excepted !

[destiny6666]

@jaxter854 - the most arrogant / delusional performance in the history of Australian television ... due to lack of talent he was given a chance to move forward!

[jaxter854]

@destiny6666 I'm sorry, but I don't get it. If you have such strong contempt and obvious dislike for Altiyan and feel he lacks any kind of talent at all, why do you spend so much time on his videos? I believe in freedom of speech so you are entitled to your opinion, but why fill each of the Altiyan videos with your derogatory comments? Altiyan won because enough of the Australian public thought he deserved to win. I personally love the man. I think he's brilliant.

[destiny6666]

@jaxter854 - I accept your apology :)

[jaxter854]

@destiny6666 Yes, I am sorry, sorry that some Australians still haven't matured enough to stop portraying Australia as the land of the 'tall poppy syndrome'.

[destiny6666]

@jaxter854 - I appreciate the banter - have a great Xmas :)

[jaxter854]

@destiny6666 Merry Christmas to all Altiyan Childs fans.

[jihsjh]

@jaxter854 I think you will find that destiny6666 makes a habit out of posting comments/videos about a lot of people, not just Altiyan. Click on her profile and you will see for yourself. Nothing better to do by the looks of it. Thank goodness some of us can recognise talent.

[jaxter854]

@jihsjh Yes, fortunately the voting public demostrated that the majority of us recognised that Altiyan had the talent and deserved to win X Factor. We are also very fortunate that Ronan saw the potential in Altiyan as well. Unfortunately there isn't anything we can do about people who post comments on Utube designed to try and bring people down. Not sure what motivates them. Possibly low self esteem, jealousy or maybe just the kind of people who get enjoyment out of annoying others.

[destiny6666]

@jihsjh - hahahaha, too much time on my hands, fancy clicking on my profile ... a big "L" on your forehead :)

[destiny6666]

@jaxter854 - the looks on their faces was totally justified, even Altiyan apologised ... he got the sympathy vote, booo whoo!

[jaxter854]

@destiny6666 I guess the reality is, that none of this matters anymore. Altiyan won, he's performing to sell out concerts. I myself will be going to his Tassie concert next month. The man is brilliant, he's a great artist, a beautiful person and when he's on stage, it's just pure magic. I'm thrilled to see he's going so well and loved by so many. He deserves every success.

[destiny6666]

@jaxter854 - yes, you're 100% spot on, he has the contract with Sony BMG, his album is still in the top 10, and all is going very very nicely to date ... most importantly the fans are loving it which is really all that matters! : )

[fustyans]

Actually Altiyan has Natalie to thank. Both Guy and Kyle said "No" Ronan obviously said yes, but so did "Natalie" if she'd have gone with the other two, we would never have heard of him again. Thanks Nat :)

[sammieebroz]

maybe this wasnt the best audition but hey it was good enough to get through and he won it in the end and thats all that counts

[MichaelJacksonFan000]

And he won.....

[JamieArcherFans]

Jamie Archer's sex on fire Audition is the best, look it up

[TheNanny77]

hes the man search him up doing u2

[gg2854ok]

He wins? HAHA

[jihsjh]

@gg2854ok Glad they gave him a chance to come back as he turned out to be the best they had. Fantastic and would go to see him if he toured. Even here you can tell he has talent

[shmika1000]

L.O.L! :OP

[destiny6666]

@schneke1 - Jamie Archers version at his audition was something special ... now that's real talent :)

[jihsjh]

@destiny6666 Just listed to it, prefer Altiyan's voice to his but he was good

[destiny6666]

@jihsjh - of course you do :)

[SuperMaria911]

just look at how the music take over him. u dont see passion like this anymore. the world needs him.

[tiannahisawesome]

I think here, Nat looks a little bit disgusted by him lol! :)

[BrOaDwAyBaBy62]

I still can't believe he won.

[PierreBouvier4Lyf]

Hah what the eff? :L

Okay he has a good voice but man, how'd he get past this. Look at all the looks on the judges faces?

Sally Chatfield was amazing from the start and her and Natalie weren't so sure of themselves that they were gunna win. She definitely deserved it.

[AndyBoy2oo7]

Why isnt there a video of Mahoganys audition?:

[ravelikespastic]

I am so happy he won, he deserved this and so much more - this audition was a flop and im so proud and happy he won!!!

[shabachr]

he sucked alot then..

[dominatrix060891]

altien

all day baby woooohhh

[SexyBlackNumber]

He sucked here... It's true but see where he is now...

GRAND FINALS BABY!!

[crustyoscar]

CONGRATULATIONS ALTIYAN CHILDS FOR WINNING THE X FACTOR AUSTRALIA 2010 !!!!! : )

[adambungle]

Congrats for winning Altiyan 

[destiny6666]

he did it again tonight, first line of both versus of the INXS song, stuffed it up ... and this song, sang "today" instead of "tonight" and muffled his way through his own lyrics after that ... this guy is great, I just worry he may be a real life train wreck ... can he handle fame?

[w4rrior94]

LOOK WHERE HE IS NOW

[monkeyfiona]

Dude :-P

[AquariusKas]

just by watching this i noteced that he has improved alot during the X factor hes now one of my favorite singers

[moksha32]

hey, where s the 2nd audition? full stream. not the lagging stream

[andrewtheone7]

man his owning the show now

[frostedcrown]

the guy is a loser full stop.

[sokaplaya07]

imagine if he never made it to the live shows wow!

[TimazPT]

jamie afro kicks is ass everyday singing this.... however, i must say that i really like this guy in u2 and bon jovi songs. he's good. search for "jamie afro audition".

[moregoldmoregold]

You gotta love this guy...

[BobGeorgeAU]

Ha! It just ends with "sorry".

[gizarangi]

he shouldn't of made it past this performance ggggggrrrrrrrrr

[HypnotisedbyMcFLY]

@gizarangi he has a great voice even though we didnt really see it in this. you can tell though

[gizarangi]

@HypnotisedbyMcFLY he doesn't have any range when it comes to singing there are alot better singers than this guy

[zzsharka]

@gizarangi The judges knew he had something extra, he was just super nervous.

[gizarangi]

@zzsharka the judges don't even know what they are doing and right now are voting purely on favouritism within their own groups

[glenncol]

What a first class real life wanker, this guy has to be the biggest tosser to walk god green earth

[BieberOwnnzDis]

LOLING IRL.

LOVE YOU ALTIYAN HAHA!

[destiny6666]

just saw the awal ad ... he's a weird unit!

[ThePdoubleb]

see the comment of this performance n compare with recent performance comment thats wht is Altiyan chids is .....go Altiyan x-factor is urs.........

[MsMagz87]

Felt sorry for him but could see the potential

[MacIsC00l]

I bet a lot of people are regretting what they said about Altiyan after he sung Beautiful day..

[MtWaverlyProductions]

@MacIsC00l And now even more with eye of the tiger.

[destiny6666]

@MacIsC00l - you're only judged on your last performance and no one can say this was anything other than unacceptable !

[destiny6666]

@MacIsC00l - has nothing to do with regretting what was said ... the reality is you're only as good as your last performance ... especially in a talent show ... even the die hard Altiyan fans cringed at this effort with embarrassment at the time ... hence the euphoria/excitement when he nailed Beautiful Day ... then going on to win the show ... we love a great underdog story & without doubt he deserved to win : )

[catherinewheels11]

@MacIsC00l No, that just gave us more to talk about. :D haha he sucks

[frand2003]

I hope you win X factor xxx

[axe1master]

He get's better than this. He improves dramatically watch his performance of soul sister. Love the fact that he had the courage to come back and woo the judges. Ronon Keating is a great judge for seeing talents like Altiyan. Thumbs Up

[anastasiab262]

@axe1master Been following the whole show? He's now the undisputed frontrunner and the only real chance at winning the show! Yeah! Go Altiyan!

[emanhotto]

this guy freaks me the fuck out. he looks like a junkie. send that nasty thing home

[evilhomer11]

@emanhotto you arent so perfect yourself... so so people been saying behind you're back.

[zorrow78]

He's lost my vote for sure, he's very annoying!!!! What was Ronan thinking?

[NeverDie100]

i know this bloke and i swear he  has done some fuckweird shit like always eating trips and putting conspiracys on us, hahah its wasfunnny but

[frand2003]

@NeverDie100 .... jealous much ???

[gizarangi]

@NeverDie100 seems like a weird cunt

[hanhtam79]

i don't know how he's got this far in the comp. he only sang a few seconds all together, the rest was all about sobbing. how does he "feel" the songs if he can't even remember the lyrics.

[ucsggei]

LOVE UUUUUUUUUU Cant stop watching the video I only watch X factor for u :) Very original!

[AFw3ndForU]

srsly ronan let better people go for him big mistake

altiyan is a drama queen you lost my vote thts fer sure!

[attilathegorilla]

This guy is the biggest drama queen. Everything he does is for show, nothing genuine about him. That's why he can't even remember the words.

[MichelleBrown101]

I liked his voice But I think he just let nerves get the best of him, I'm glad that Rohan put him in his top three (: Go Altiyan!

[roadrunsz]

omg this guy sucks ass

[hOaKsKBS]

this guy sucks x factor is from the beginning!!! harry abu and andrew

[deathcapped]

creepy

[giodiane]

It is obviously that he has got a great voice but it was only the nerves that got to him.

That is why Rohan let him go through because he is the best of all the contestants.

[TeenageFortune]

you would be better if you knew the words

[Outrajess]

He wasn't bad. Just nervous.

[mathew200000]

Altiyan you rock dude!!!!!!!!!!!

[perfectstranglers]

YOU ROCK DUDE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

[happynuts]

gosh i thought he was pretty good! his pitch and all were perfect right? not to mention almost a carbon copy of the original. except that he's a lil eccentric. or that he suck at using a mic. but i like him!
