The 14 year old Jack Vidgen with the golden tonsils and hair, won,
But 2nd was Consentino, the Magician, illusionist and escape artist, who I liked best.

The whole show this year was awash with first class talent. Outstanding!

Have to admit the boy has great talent, but then I have always been partial to blonds.Razz

Not crazy about his kind of music. But he has time to grow and broaden his appeal into other kinds of music. It takes balls to stand up in front of a nation and half the world to give it his best shot.

He deserves to be a winner and he is. Looking forward to his career and to see what he might look like in a few years.

Nah - don't like him sorry. He looks plastic and he sounds whiny, but yeah, good on him for doing what he likes. His audition song, I Have Nothing, was stunning but he should've stopped there.

This is real talent - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=It1l1QZzLTU Is there anything this kid can't sing? Amazing!

cheers

Can't argue with that, Kiwi. His choice of music is outstanding...this one is bound for glory. Smile

We can't watch it here in the states. I don't suppose you could download it and send it to me. I mentor and document and preserve treble voices.

I just got his new CD. It is fantastic.
As far as I am concerned he had a lot of cahonies to try an unproven song, one he had written in such a high profile performance. It could have been a make or brake moment just by itself. The kid has talent all over the place. I have to say the blush he developed when the judge jumped up and kissed him before his song was even over was adorable.
I have all of his performances in the archive in HQ video. As well as his new CD.

The kid flat out rocks.
