The X Factor Philippines Grand Finals Performance Night (October 6)

Posted on October 6, 2012 | 10:48 PM

The X Factor Philippines Grand Finals Performance night happened October 6 at the PAGCOR Grand Theater in Paranaque and the Final 3—Gabriel Maturan, KZ Tandingan and Daddy's Home gave their all singing their songs. Just before the live shows, The X Factor Philippines All Star Album was already released on iTunes (click here for more details).

The X Factor Philippines Grand Finals Performance Night (October 6)
The Final 3 opened the night with an upbeat performance with Asia's Nightingale Lani Misalucha. Daddy's Home made their solo song afterwards taking on their mentor's hit, Gary Valenciano's Gaya ng Dati. They expressed how much they wanted to sing the song ever since but their version, though good enough was not their best of the season.

Gabriel Maturan surprised us all with his own version of Fantasia Barrino's winning piece, I Believe. Gabriel gave his heart to the song and it radiates as he hit those high notes and move his falsetto. His performance surely gave us goosebumps.

Meanwhile, KZ Tandingan sang The Carpenters' Superstar and she did another great version out of it. The Princess of Soul wowed again and the judges were unanimous in saying that she's very good. It's not that intense and we knew she can top that with her past performances but KZ is KZ after all.

First ever ASEAN Ikon winner Vina Morales performed after the Final 3 solo performances. She did a Jennifer Lopez medley and we can say that Vina is indeed an ultimate performer, a showgirl and an icon.

After the solo performances, the X Factor Final 3 then sang with OPM icons. First up was Daddy's Home singing with 'Asia's Diamond Soul Siren' Nina. They did Chaka Khan's Through The Fire and Daddy's Home did not let Nina outshine them even in belting the high notes.

KZ Tandingan did a duet with original hitmaker, Rico J. Puno. The two sang Barbra Streisand's The Way We Were mashed up with Rico's classic Tagalog intro to the song "Alaala nang tayo'y mag-sweetheart pa."

The last performance of the night was the duet between Gabriel Maturan and rock icon Bamboo. The two did The Script's The Man Who Can't Be Moved and Gab redeemed himself from that other performance from The Script (think Breakeven). With a twist of Leaving On A Jet Plane in the end, it was simply the best performance of the night. WOW!

To vote for your favorite, just text XF <space> GAB/KZ/DAD and send to 2331 for Globe, TM and Sun Cellular subscribers or 231 for Smart and Talk N’ Text subscribers. You can also vote using ABS-CBN vote cards. To vote online, log on to xfactor.abs-cbn.com.

Our fearless forecast:

It was a toss up between KZ Tandingan and Gabriel Maturan. If we will based the decision purely on tonight's performances, then the Dark Horse (Gab) beats the front runner (KZ) but we knew that all will be based on votes so just like any other results show, it will be purely unpredictable. However, we would like to give the shot to Gabriel who might end up repeating an Erik Santos feat beating Sheryn Regis in Star in a Million.

Tomorrow, the grand winner of The X Factor Philippines will be named so don't miss the results show on Sunday (October 7) after Sarah G Live.

The X Factor Philippines Grand Finals: Why Your Bets Will Win 'X Factor'

The X Factor Philippines Grand Finals: Who Will Win?
The X Factor Philippines Grand Finals will happen on October 6 and 7 and tonight, we will witness the performances of The X Factor PH Final 3—Gabriel Maturan, KZ Tandingan and Daddy's Home. 

Gab, KZ and Daddy's Home will be performing two songs each,  a solo song and a duet with a surprise singer. The winner will be announced on the results show Sunday night. 

The big question now is who will win The X Factor Philippines, the one who will taking home the PhP 4 million worth of prizes, including a recording contract from Star Records and be lined with other X Factor winners around the globe?

Before we witnessed the grand showdown, we compile reasons why each of the contestants will be the very first The X Factor Philippines grand winner. Here they are:

Why Gabriel Maturan will win? 
by: Voltaire Muyong Valdez

1. He has the potential to be a modern day singing sensation. This boy without a doubt could set sales records overseas if given the right songs. Even if he has that awkwardly shyness, it was never a disability nor that can limit on his voice from pulling off songs effortlessly. True artists are so damn shy but rocks when performing. His timbre is hip, young and resembles the chart toppers: Jason Mraz, Justin Bieber, Justin Timberlake and Stephen Bishop. He’s captivating presence always undeniably radiates on screen. 

2. He has a passionate fan base. He has never been in the bottom 2, consistently safe in the weekly call-outs, which clearly suggests that Gabnatics are not just blabbers but damn solid believers – extremely 'on and on' like their idol. He has never been boastful nor being rumoured as such because he is rediculously humble. Genuine humility, even he has the talent to show-off, clearly attracts the mass that can equate success and beyond – a proven asset made the 2003 most renowned singing champion still shine the brightest.

3. Juan dela Cruz could be experiencing Diva fatigue. Since singing contest came in the scene, belting out notes has been the standards of winning. However, as the time ticks out, the market's tastes switch out and already turned to something fresh and new. It is evident that right after the popstar princess' was hailed champion, no other female singing pros ever matched nor even surpassed her shine. This only proves that in this age, only one diva is allowed to survive - which pains female singing hopefuls. But searching for a true pop prince is no waste attempt because the industry hasn't had a young Jason Mraz or Justine Timberlake-like voice which clearly tops the chart for every released single. This is the right time for the dark horse of the competition, Gabriel Maturan, to advance and be hailed as the first X Factor Philippines Winner. He really has it all to last.

Why KZ Tandingan will win?

1. Besides possesing an “x-factor,” KZ’s got what it takes to be a star. She has excellent voice quality and diction, looks good in person and on cam, has on-stage showmanship and a ‘masa’ appeal. Not only that, KZ gives us goosebumps every time she sings, that same feeling we get when Jovit, Charice and American Idol’s Jessica Sanchez perform.

2. Being ‘marketable’ is something that makes KZ different from other contenders. We received info that she has a very interesting life story worthy to be featured on ABS-CBN’s longest-running drama anthology, “Maalaala Mo Kaya.” 

3. One more thing before we wrap this up, KZ never landed in the Bottom 2 since the final phase of the competition started (except for last week), a clear proof that XFP viewers vote for her to ensure victory.

Why Daddy's Home will win?
by: GoodFilipino.com

1. They blend perfectly while performing on stage. Though we all know that the four of them are professionals in their different careers in the real world, Daddy's Home still joined this competition to share their talents to everyone and showed us that Daddys don't stop just being a dad, they can also entertain everyone else by showing their God-given talents.

2. All four of them knows how to entertain their listeners with the way they sing songs of their own renditions.  They all have good quality of voice and spill lyrics with a very good diction. Plus factor is that they are all good looking dads, so they all have a guts to be a star.

3. They always sing in their best, as if it was their last performance. Even though they went through the bottom two many times before, everyone knows (judges and even viewers) that they all deserve to be in the final three of this competition.

So there you are. From here, we think that the winner will be the one who's got the most number of fans who will spend money to vote their idols. Anybody can be a winner but the real test is longevity in the industry. That's the true winner.

The highly-anticipated final musical showdown will also witness the battle of judge-mentors Martin Nievera, who mentors the Boys; Charice for the Girls; and Gary Valenciano for the Groups. 

Before the excitement this weekend, “The X Factor Philippines” went through an intense drama after Charice’s other mentee from the Girls, Allen Sta. Maria, ended her ‘x factor’ journey at a close fourth spot and got the boot last Sunday (Sep 30). All three mentors, except Charice, voted to send Allen home and preferred for KZ, who joined her in the bottom two, to stay in the competition. Charice was spared from choosing between her two girls but bursted into tears when she bid one of her mentees goodbye. 

The battle stage is already set for the final three. Who will among Gab, KZ, and Daddy’s Home will emerge as the first “The X Factor Philippines” grand winner? 

Be sure to put your favorites at the top by voting for them this Saturday night (Oct 6). Vote after their performances by texting XF<space>GAB/KZ/DAD and send it to 2331 for Globe and Sun subscribers and 231 for Smart and Talk ‘n Text subscribers.

The X Factor Philippines Top 3 Revealed, Allen Sta. Maria Eliminated!

Posted on September 30, 2012 | 9:18 PM

The X Factor Philippines Top 4 elimination night (results show) happened September 30, 2012 and it was Allen Sta. Maria who got the boot, revealing the Top 3 who will be vying for the grand finals next week.

Allen Sta. Maria eliminated on the 9th Live Results Show (elimination night) of The X Factor  Philippines, September 30

Allen's elimination from The X Factor Philippines was the most hurtful since it was just one step away to the grand finals. She was joined by KZ Tandingan in the bottom two lowest text and online vote getters. This was the second time that the bottom two came from the wings of only one mentor (the first one was when A.K.A. JAM was pitted against fellow Gary V mentee, Daddy's Home).

The two had a sing-off for survival and Allen Sta. Maria sang Pink's Perfect while KZ Tandingan performed John Legend's Ordinary People. 

All the three judges asked favored KZ Tandingan and voted to eliminate Allen Sta. Maria, citing that the former has the more X Factor who will be representing the Philippines to the world. Charice, Allen's mentor burst in tears even before she gave her advice to Allen (thanked God she was not given the task to vote off one of them).

Surely, Charice's world was rattled and her heart broke knowing that both her girls, Allen and KZ were on the verge of elimination. Last night though wasn't the night of these two girls as they performed less than their capabilities. We ranked them as the two weakest last night but we did not expect KZ to be part of the bottom two.

Now, we are down to The X Factor Philippines Final 3. Who among
  • Gabriel Maturan 
  • Daddy's Home
  • KZ Tandingan
will emerge as the very first grand winner of The X Factor Philippines and will take home the PhP 4 million worth of prizes, including a recording contract? Find out next week on The X Factor Philippines two-part grand finals (October 6 and 7).

The X Factor Philippines Final 4 Performance Night (September 29)

The last live performance night of The X Factor Philippines before the grand finals happened September 29, 2012 at the PAGCOR Grand Theater in Paranaque. The X Factor final 4 paid tribute to their musical heroes which serve as their influences in singing.

The X Factor Philippines 9th Live Performance Show, September 29

Allen Sta. Maria opened the night for the nth time with a swagger from Willow Smith, Whip My Hair. The judges gave their nod to Allen. Even judge Pilita told her that she might replace Charice, to which her mentor agreed saying that she's not threatened at all because Allen deserved it.

Daddy's Home suited up for their Journey performance. The quartet again harmonized perfectly with a Homer Flores-arranged Open Arms and the judges were all unanimous in saying that they really deserved the slot in the Top 4.

KZ Tandingan may not display her vocal calisthenics but she did one thing we haven't seen in her performances yet which is dancing. Doing Chris Brown's Forever was not her strongest (probably her weakest this season) but we're pretty sure that she will make it to the grand finals and even win the whole thing with her strong fan base.

Gabriel Maturan closed the show with Justin Bieber's Boyfriend. It was the biggest production for Gabriel after Bruno Mars' It Will Rain and he did not disappoint. Rapping, singing (with falsetto) and dancing in one performance was it and his mentor told him that it was his most relaxed so far, proud no matter what happens on the results night.

Here is the list of songs performed by The X Factor Philippines Final 4 (in order):
  • Allen Jane Sta. Maria - Whip My Hair (Willow Smith)
  • Daddy's Home -  Open Arms (Journey)
  • KZ Tandingan - Forever (Chris Brown)
  • Gabriel Maturan - Boyfriend (Justin Bieber)
To vote for your favorite, just text XF <space> name of contestant and send to 2331 for Globe, TM and Sun Cellular subscribers or 231 for Smart and Talk N’ Text subscribers.

Here is our ranking of the best performances of the night:
  1. Gabriel Maturan - XF GAB
  2. Daddy's Home - XF DAD
  3. Allen Jane Sta. Maria - XF ALLEN
  4. KZ Tandingan - XF KZ
Who will make it to the grand finals? We foresee either Daddy's Home or Allen Sta. Maria going home on Sunday's live results show. Both have been in the bottom two a few times already. However, there was a gut feel that Gabriel Maturan will be there for the first time and can be in the danger of elimination if he will be pitted against Daddy's Home (with or without a deadlock).

Don't miss The X Factor Philippines on September 30 as the Final 3 who will battle it out in the grand finals will be named.

The X Factor Philippines 8th Live Performance Night (September 22)

Allen Sta. Maria opened the night with Teenage Dream originally by Katy Perry and revived by Glee's The Warblers headed by Darren Criss. This is the first time that Allen sang a pop song and her performance was not that spectacular like her past performances. The judges wanted to see her do another thing. Gabriel Maturan did Moonlight Over Paris which is revived by Paolo Santos. Judge Gary Valenciano told him that he don't need to move purposely for a ballad song. Gab's voice though is that beautiful you can't help but just be moved by his song.

KZ Tandingan sang To Make You Feel My Love which was revived by Adele. Her performance was again heartfelt and well-received by the judges. It was simply captivating. Jeric Medina rendered Do You Believe In Me revived by South Border and the judges wanted him to push harder. After all, he's got one of the best vocals in the competition so he needed to step it all up and move some more.

Daddy's Home gave another harmonized performance taking on Tell Me revived by Side A. The group did a good job with the song and received praises from the judges.

Here is the list of songs performed by The X Factor Philippines Final 6 (in order):
  • Allen Jane Sta. Maria - Teenage Dream (Glee)
  • Gabriel Maturan - Moonlight Over Paris (Paolo Santos)

The X Factor Philippines 7th Live Performance Night (September 15)

Posted on September 15, 2012 | 10:47 PM

The seventh live performance night of The X Factor Philippines happened September 15, 2012 at the PAGCOR Grand Theater in Paranaque. The X Factor final 6 did the Eraserheads and Rivermaya songbook for Saturday's performance show.

Daddy's Home, Gabriel Maturan, Jeric Medina and KZ Tandingan paid tribute to Rivermaya while Kedebon Colim and Allen Sta. Maria sang Eraserheads.

The X Factor Philippines 7th Live performance night (September 15, 2012)

Daddy's Home opened the night with a lounge version of Himala. The judges applauded their performance, saying that they can sing anything. Gabriel Maturan followed with a surprising rendition of Hinahanap-Hanap Kita. He totally performed with sexy dancers and did not allow them to overpower him. With confidence and sex appeal oozing, Gab's version of the 'Maya' classic is better than Daniel's (lol).

Jeric Medina worked out his charisma singing 214 (Am I Real). He truly felt his song but the judges found minor off notes. Mentor Martin said that it was Jeric's most-relaxed performance though. KZ Tandingan, dubbed by Charice as the real 'Princess of Soul' sang Kisapmata in a Cesar Aguas arrangement. The judges found no wrong in her song, saying that it was sensational. KZ even made judge Gary cry.

Kedebon Colim entertained again with Toyang and the judges advised him to just ignore haters. Judge Gary also added that he wanted Kedebon to do other genre so that he can show his heart more which seemed to be his strength. Allen Sta. Maria closed the show with With A Smile. If KZ has had her title, mentor Charice also gave Allen her own, that is 'The Swag Princess.' Her performance was smooth just like the night she sang Carol Banawa. The judges saw the maturity in her this time. Allen is using her soft and loud voice perfectly and that made her stand-out from the rest.

Here is the list of songs performed by The X Factor Philippines Final 6 (in order):

The X Factor Philippines 6th Live Performance Night (September 8)

Posted on September 8, 2012 | 10:44 PM

The sixth live performance night of The X Factor Philippines happened September 8, 2012 at the PAGCOR Grand Theater in Paranaque. The X Factor final 7 took on songs from the 80s and gave their own renditions of these past hit songs.

The X Factor Philippines 6th Live Performance Show (Top 7) September 8, 2012

Allen Sta. Maria wowed with her own version of The Police's Every Breath You Take. Allen brought back the swagger in her and perhaps this is Allen's next best performance after her cover of Carol Banawa's Hanggang May Kailanman last week. Gabriel Maturan gave his own touch on Kenny Loggins Forever which the judges found refreshing but they wanted him to come out of his shell more on stage.

KZ Tandingan was again in her element but there's some issues on her soft high notes while singing. Heavily favored by fans, KZ is one front runner since auditions. Meanwhile, Jeric Medina sang the controversial George Michael hit, Careless Whisper in a different arrangement which somewhat took the song's sexy appeal. The judges said that it's Jeric's best performance, making the song less associated with the scandal it carried years back.

Daddy's Home did a heartfelt rendition of a Chicago's hit and dude, that was 80s! The blending and harmony, according to the judges was fantastic. Kedebon Colim improved a lot in his performance of Eye of the Tiger  which was full of energy though he still cannot perfect those high notes (Kedebon's birthday wish was to at least hit those notes).

Joan Da closed the night with MJ's Billie Jean a la David Cook but with soft vocals. This could be at par with her Alanis Morissette performance but fell short a little. Joan however looked good tonight and impressed the judges well.

Here are the list of songs performed by The X Factor Philippines Final 7 (in order):
  • Allen Jane Sta. Maria - Every Breath You Take (The Police)
  • Gabriel Maturan - Forever (Kenny Loggins)
  • KZ Tandingan - Eternal Flame (The Bangles)
  • Jeric Medina - Careless Whisper (George Michael)
  • Daddy's Home - Will You Still Love Me? (Chicago)
  • Kedebon Colim - Eye of the Tiger (Survivor)
  • Joan Da - Billie Jean (Michael Jackson)

The X Factor Philippines 5th Live performance night (Top 8) September 1

Jeric Medina opened the night with a refreshing version of Itchyworms' Akin Ka Na Lang which we found as his best so far in the competition but the judges were quite uncomfortable with Jeric's movements, saying that he's good with slow songs. He was followed by Joan Da in a red gown singing Join The Club's Nobela and the judges agreed that its her best vocals so far, one that could be her single. Daddy's Home performed Paraiso by Smokey Mountain with their children which was also a hit to the judges.

Gabriel Maturan gave a cool rendition of South Border's Rainbow working on his falsetto right, getting nods from judges. Takeoff did APO's Yakap Sa Dilim and vocally, the judges found some flaws yet their performance was enjoyable. Allen Sta. Maria received praises for her rendition of Carol Banawa's Hanggang May Kailanman, perhaps her best so far outside her usual genre which is hip hop.

KZ Tandingan sang Ang Huling El Bimbo by Eraserheads and the judges just wanted her to continue what she's doing. Kedebon Colim was again given the pimp spot for the second time and he performed Kailangan Kita composed by Ogie Alcasid and just like last week, Kedebon's notes were all around prompting Charice to say that he can't just do a ballad thing if ever he still moves on to next week's live show.

Here are the list of songs performed by The X Factor Philippines Final 8 (in order):
  • Jeric Medina - Akin Ka Na Lang (Itchyworms)
  • Joan Da - Nobela (Join The Club)
