Marcelito belted out “Beauty and Beast”, once again impressing everyone with this strong voice on both tenor and falsetto. All the judges praised him, agreeing that his piece for the Finals is simply perfect. However, Simon was less than pleased; though he still believes that Marcelito is talented and could go far with his talent.
The three other judges gushed over the performance, lauding his choice of songs.
“I know it’s the third time you perform in front of us, but it never gets old. Like when those voices are all coming out and it’s like so many voices inside of your body, it is just incredible over and over and over again. I can feel it from the reactions of the audience, too. It’s amazing! You are also very, very smart, because you always picked songs that we all know and love, so we can always kind of follow. You’re so incredible,” said Heidi Klum.
“Oh, Marcelito! When I first saw you, you blew me away because it was the surprise of it all. Like we don’t expect both voices to come out of oner person. I thought it was a gimmick but the second time I saw you, I enjoyed it just as much – if not more! And I feel the same thing about tonight. You’re making the right choices on the right song. Great job tonight!” Howie Mandel agreed.
“Marcelito, the song choice was perfect! And I actually think that you’ve upped your game from the last time we had you sing. The high notes on that song were beautiful. You absolutely nailed it tonight and I couldn’t be happier for you. Love you!” gushed Alesha Dixon.

But while he praised Marcelito’s talent, Simon wasn’t 100% impressed.
“You are a very nice, very talented guy, I gotta tell you. You really, really are – and this is even better than the last performance you did. Much, much better! However, if it was my choice, on a night like this, I would have done something less predictable,” he started.
“How was that predictable?” Alesha interrupted, clearly disagreeing.
