Teresa Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 It's basically the 2nd round, between the auditions and Judges Houses.About 100 hopefuls go and sing again. They're usually split into twos or threes, sometimes told to sing like a group (if they're soloists) but still shine through. Basically the contestants in all categories, are eliminated en-masse, until there are about 6 in each category. They are the ones who go to Judges Houses. In the UK there was a cruel twist this year at Bootcamp. Each judge already knew their category and the contestants had to go onstage to sing. When the judge would decide to take someone through, he/she told them to sit in one of the six chairs onstage. This was okay until all six were taken. Then the judge would swap someone already sitting down ( who thought they were through) with the new favourite. It's really unkind so I hope it's not in IXF. The judges houses are not really their houses so don't get excited about seeing inside Chez Mika. It's just somewhere they go with their judge and the judge has a guest assistant to help them decide which three are going through to live shows. Someone else may have explained it better than me. That's really horrible, and what I'd call an 'abuse of power'. That's why I never liked the xfs with cowell as a judge, there's no respect for the person behind the contestant. In xfi it never happened and I hope this year things won't change... From what I've seen the judges have always been professional and sincerely sorry for those who really believe in it and who don't make it, and they have anyway always shown respect, especially during the home visit, since those contestants are all good and really believe in it . So I don't think something like that will happen, hopefully! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonaG Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Thank you very much, Simona Could you write this one sentence of the philosophy student in Italian as well? I'm trying to understand the words in Italian, but in this sentence I couldn't figure them out I hope it's okay if I'm asking so much Don't worry It's a pleasure!!! Here it is : The student says :"Io credo che caricare in radio per 20 volte al giorno la stessa canzone anche se fa schifo alla fine, cioè, entra in testa alle persone" And keep on asking if you need any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teresa Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Thank you for your explanations everybody I watched the orange T-shirt guy, what did Mika said please, when he said him yes? Something about energy? Oh, and this guy who speaks soooooooo fast, that they need to subtitle him the one with his guitar that Elio needed to "???" (verb is missing ) because the guy had no diapason. What was all the discussion about? I'm sorry for asking so much (I promise I will work very hard for The Voice ) Oh, jeez he really talked a lot XD but he seemed a nice person! He basically said that he wants to make a living out of music, out of his songs, that reflect everything that has happened in his life, the birth of his son, a life-changing experience... He says these things are now a little bit 'frozen' inside him and he wants to extern them in his music, and to live the life he feels he has been made for. Then he goes on stage and asks Elio to tune (?) his guitar, he says he is a tragicomic songwriter, and he performs his song (btw, his voice wasn't amazing but the lyrics were pretty good, the song had quite a deep meaning). Then the 'discussion' with Simona was about the fact that he quit his job, because he felt the moment had come to quit a job that might have given him even a lot of money but that made him come home unhappy, while he wants to come home and give his girlfriend and his son a feeling of positivity. Everyone said yes, Mika said that he thought his song was very valid and believable. Then he said he was very happy, especially because the 4 judges, by saying yes, have made an injection of confidence in him. He was a little bit mad indeed, but he seemed a nice person and his song wasn't bad, and, as Morgan said, he put a smile on their faces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allegra Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I only watched a Talent Show in Germany and only because our Bubbles ( and he was really good ) was in it but I have to say I like the Italian contestants so far. Ciao Sabine. Was our Bubbles in a talent show?? Could you tell me more, please? Is there any web document (video, pictures...)? Did he win something? I did not know anything about that It is Mika's fault, he does not write new songs so i don't visit MFC so much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tulun♥23 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I really liked Violetta! I think she's gonna win... what do you think? She's very special...

mamiam Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I really liked Violetta! I think she's gonna win... what do you think? She's very special... I think Mika fell for her But I loved his reaction very much... I've never seen him so touched!!! Violetta seems lovely - in every way - and yes, MIKA was really touched I don't think we'll see very often that he put his feet on the chair, and sit like he was in his own sofa at home But who's gonna win, I don't dare to predict ...

So I don't think something like that will happen, hopefully! I've really been enjoying XFI. I can follow it even though I don't speak Italian. I can tell if they like the act, and when they give them "4 si" (4 yesses) I'm getting to like the other judges, especially Morgan. I too hope the Bootcamp stage won't have the thing with the chairs. Hopefully not. But it is always sad when the contestants are told they have to go home. It always means so much to them. So Mika will have to break some hearts, however it plays out.

I agree with you. In next episode's preview they showed a few seconds of Morgan complaining aloud to the other judges that he didn't want to break anyone's heart... I'm always sad for the rejected contestants too, even if I don't like them as singers... So I hope the judges will keep up to their responsibility with intelligence, sensitivity and respect. Ps: I'm very glad you're enjoying it! Edited October 7, 2013 by Teresa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
