Louis Walsh: (Introduction) Okay everybody, the second person in my category coming on stage tonight is a young guy from Manchester. I think he's got it all. His name is Shayne Ward.
Intro clip... Shayne: This has just changed my life so much. Like a few month ago I was only working in a shop in Manchester selling shoes... and I thought "Oh god, is this the life for me?" But now everything's been like a whirlwind. It's like I'm in the papers, I'm on TV performing to millions. It's scary, but I just cannot believe how quick it's all happened.
Louis Walsh: Shayne, for me, he just gets better and better and better. This week is going to be interesting though because he's gonna do an uptempo song and I just hope he nails it.
Shayne: I'm on such a high at the moment. I've had fantastic comments. I don't want to let anybody down and I'm scared that it can all just end like that. So, at the moment (raising his hand) I'm up here and I want to stay up here, but I'm really scared of coming down. I just don't want it to end... (shakes his head) don't want it to end.
Shayne sings...
Kate Thornton: Sharon? Your comments please?
Sharon Osbourne: (Emphatic) Shayne! I have something for you.
Shayne: Okay? ( Whooooooos from the audience!)
Sharon Osbourne: It's warm! (Shrieks from the audience)
Shayne: (Jokey) Is it warm?
Sharon Osbourne: It feels 'really' nice!
Shayne: (More cautious now) Okay?
Sharon Osbourne: And it smells good too! (Embarrassed titters from the audience)
Shayne: Okay?
Sharon Osbourne: When can I give it to you? (Laughter, some jeers)
Shayne: (No hesitation) Right now!
Sharon Osbourne: (Throws her head back in laughter)
Shayne: (Makes beckoning gestures to Sharon, she makes clawing gestures to him, he reciprocates... from a distance!)
Sharon Osbourne: (Shuffles her fists in the air) Yes!
Simon Cowell: Well what is it?
Sharon Osbourne: Well it's warm, it feels nice and it smells nice!
Shayne: (Shouts across) Leave it to your imagination!
Simon Cowell: I don't think I want to. (Laughter)
Louis Walsh: Is it a cup of tea?
Sharon Osbourne: (Matron voice) Nooo. It's not a cup of tea!
Simon Cowell: Okay well it is Halloween. (Laughter)
Sharon Osbourne: (To Louis) You can't drink it! (Sharon cottons on to Simon's dig) That was belooooooow the belt!!! Uhhh!
Simon Cowell: (Grinning) Okay! okay.
Kate Thornton: Sharon your ...your comments on the performance please?
Sharon Osbourne: (Fans her face) Fabulous! (Cheers)
Kate Thornton: Simon!
Simon Cowell: Uhm, Shayne last week I thought actually it was just a one person competition last week. I thought you so stole the competition last week...
Shayne: That's...
Simon Cowell: ...and I was expecting a lot more. Last week was magic. This week wasn't, and I'll tell you why...
Sharon Osbourne: (Gasps)
Simon Cowell: ...To sing that song you've got to have grit in your voice.
Shayne: Okay.
Simon Cowell: And what you did was you softened the song up. So therefore, I don't think it worked. I still think you are a great potential pop star, but that for me was your weakest performance so far.
Shayne: (Puts his hand up) Can I just say something?
Simon Cowell: Please.
Kate Thornton: Thank..! (Stops short)
Shayne: (To Kate) Please? (To Simon. Shayne rushes the words out a little.) I don't think you need to have gravel in your voice to sing that song. I sang that song because I enjoy singing that song. I don't need to sound like Bryan Adams to perform a Bryan Adams track.
Simon Cowell: You do.
Shayne: I believe that this is my voice, that is my song, and hopefully I performed it well. (Cheers)
Kate Thornton: Thank you Shayne. Louis?... Louis?
Louis Walsh: Simon, he's... you know he could sing ballads every week but we don't want to sing ballads every week...
Shayne: We don't want to sing ballads every week, no.
Louis Walsh: Shayne can sing absolutely anything. He could sing the phone book. I think it was a really good performance Shayne. (Cheers)
Shayne: Thank you very much.
Louis Walsh: And you know I believe in you... We want everybody to vote for him. We need your votes.
Shayne: Thank you Louis.
Sharon Osbourne: (Shouts excitedly) I think that you could sing naked Shayne and get away with it!
Louis Walsh: Huh?
Sharon Osbourne: Absolutely!
Shayne: (Turns around and wiggles at Sharon)
Kate Thornton: I think that Sharon would quite like that Shayne. (Laughter) ...Okay, So are you going to vote for Shayne tonight?... (Kate gives out the voting numbers etc.) ...Ladies and gentlemen, it's a fully clothed Shayne!
