not guilty. And don't feel prepared for this at all. [applause] >> [cheering] >> you walking out here crying. >> I know. I just feel I just feel guilty just for coming back and everything, but I'm going to try on my own. [applause] >> You really should give yourself an opportunity to really make it great.

And you don't want to do that to Yourself. Get yourself together. Okay. [cheering]

I see you driving [screaming] around town with the guy I love and I'm like forget you. I guess the change in my pocket wasn't enough. I'm like forget you.

I'm going to

say yes. [music] [cheering and screaming] [applause] >> I'm saying yes. [cheering] >> I'm going to give you a chance, baby. It's a yes from me. >> [cheering] >> It's a yes from me. Well done.

I can tell you are. >> I'm from a small village called Gorchin. Um, my house is quite literally in the middle of nowhere. Uh, it's pretty bleak.

>> Because of where I live, I do spend [music] a lot of time by myself in my Room reading, writing, and singing. The reason why I'm I haven't really been out singing is probably the lack of confidence and it's it's a lot easier to sing in the house than it is to go out in front of an audience. I've been writing songs and poetry [music] since I was about 7 years old. Just gives you an easy escape to like get your thoughts out of your head so [music] they stop bugging you. >> All right, sweetheart.

Good luck. Go [cheering] on. >> This competition is such a huge contrast and do anything I've [music] ever done before. The fact that I've been able to fly over here and do this audition is it's huge. It's it could be lifechanging [music] potentially and I hope it is. So nervous I can't even put on words how nervous I am side stage. I don't think I'm going to be able to breathe. [music] >> Hi there. How you doing? Uh, I'm good. Yeah. >> Yeah.

Don't even live in the town. I live in the blatant Countryside. So, >> Okay. Okay. >> There's not that much you can do. >> Okay. Is this a big dream for you being on the X Factor? >> It's feels like a dream. It feels like I haven't even woken up yet. Even just being right here and there's so many people. It's

like, wo. [cheering] [applause] >> Okay. And what are you going to sing for us today? >> Uh, your song Bell and John. >> Okay. Wow. >> Good luck, Janet. >> Good luck, everyone. [cheering] It's a little bit [music] funny this feeling inside. I'm not [music and singing] one of those who can easily hide. I don't [music] have much money. [singing] But boy, if I [music] did, I'd buy a big house where we both could live. And you can tell everybody [music] this is your song. It may be [singing] quite simple, but [music] now that it's

done, I hope you don't mind. I hope you don't mind that I put down words. How [singing] wonderful [music] life is. Now you're in the world. [cheering] I was a sculptor. But [music] then again, no. Or a girl makes potions [music] in a traveling show. I know it's not much, but it's the [music] best I can do. My gift is my song. And this one's for you. And you can tell everybody [music] this is your song. It may be quite simple, but now [music] that it's done, I hope you don't mind. I hope you don't

mind. Now I put down words. How wonderful life is. Now you're in the world. >> [screaming] [cheering] [cheering] >> Heat [applause] up [cheering] here. >> [cheering] [cheering and applause] >> Wow, Kelly. [music] Oh my goodness. I am completely just in a trance by your voice. It is so beautiful. You could have heard a pin drop in here. It was so silent because you came in here, you were nervous, and she's like, "Hello, it makes me love you even more. You are such a star. What a wonderful audition." [applause] >> Janet, I love the fact that

you're so shy. So endearing. That is a recording vocal. Janet, I don't think you have any idea how good you are. And that's what I like most about you. [applause] >> You're only 16 and you've got this very distinctive voice and you're so likable and you're from Ireland. >> Oh yeah. Thank [music] >> J. All the time when we're looking for These artists, we're trying to find people who will eventually sell records, [music] sell albums around the world, not just in the UK, but everywhere. And you are one of those people. It was such a

fantastic audition. And I think we're going to vote now. Louie, >> Janet Develin, massive yes. >> [applause and music] >> Janet, I was absolutely mesmerized by you today. It's a yes from me.

I've always been terrified to do this show, but I was going through textes and I remember my mom always

telling me, "You need to do the X Factor. You need to do the X Factor." And I always said, "No." We had a couple arguments about it. And um reading that text, I was just like, "You know what? I want to finally tick off something she's told me to do." And um [cheering] I just want to inspire someone else. And I hope I inspire people. [applause] >> What was your mother's name? >> Victoria. >> Victoria. Okay, let's do this. Victoria. [cheering] [applause] [music] Where are you now? [music] We've lost our way somehow. Been waiting all

There's there's times when I've listened to um some of his music um and [music] the lyrics are so um there's some deep stuff in there, you know, and there's times I

I feel, you [music] know, have I done enough? Did I do enough? >> One day I had to just go stop behaving like a child and grow up.
