"That was single-handedly the best first audition I have ever heard," exclaimed Simon Cowell on The X Factor after 27-year-old school teacher Danyl Johnson performed a soulful version of the Beatles' "With A Little Help From My Friends."
The X Factor is holding auditions in front of a live audience. Cowell explained to thesun, "Susan Boyle changed auditions forever. If she had walked on to The X Factor like it used to be, it would not have been as dramatic. Giving people a crowd to perform in front of makes it harder and more exciting. It makes or breaks you. It can turn a good performance into an incredible one."
And that is what happened when Johnson sang. "You watch it and it immediately has the wow factor," Cowell said. "The show has stepped up a gear."
But The X Factor was not Johnson's first time in front of an audience. He had already "starred in three bands and won a national karaoke competition," the mirror reported. Sphere: Related Content
