America really got it wrong this time sending this woman out of the competition. How I wish she did some Whitney Houston's songs. She would have done them incredibly well. Congratulations to her!
Lily actually looks like a DOLL! A living doll...what a beautiful Black woman..her style / brand..sophistacation & AND THE SINGING😅😅😂 I can visualize a 'Lily doll' as a cherished gift in 'any' household. 🎉💥💫💯
Lillie McCloud’s voice and stage presence is amazing, she’s ready for a recording contract and IS a star. I knew she would get voted out as soon as she challenged the judges criticism/feedback. Certain judges do not want the singers to voice their views. She’s going for greater things! ❤
She spoke up to Simon, she is special, a true raw talent like when Jennifer Hudson did not win American Idol, did it stop her? No ❤ Lillie will be as large as Jennifer Hudson, I feel it inside, and she is 54, ageism is sad but real. Noone has the courage to stand up against ageism, go Lillie, we know she will rise very very high, I see her on stages like Diana Ross .... musicals and Grammys 🏆 to come!!❤
It's like Tina Turner and late career Whitney lent their voices and presence to the performance. absolutely wonderful...moved me. Thank you Lillie McCloud.
This lady must win this contest. She made alive again the talents nonpareil of the greats like Whitney Houston, Diana Ross, Gladys Knight and Dionne Warwick.
She appeared on the show in 2013. She made it to the final 8 but was eliminated. She recorded 4 albums before appearing on the show and 1 album since then.
I remember this lady, Top 10 in looks, hair, figure, sound. I immediately could hear her doing the theme to James Bond or something as epic. Class Act.
Lillie was the best singer I've ever heard!! She made me feel every song that she sang!!! Especially the song WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER!!! I LOVE U LILLIE
Her performance was absolutely stellar! Her image, vocal control, range, riffs, delivery, and tone was simply the best and that is what I sincerely wish for her- " the very best!" Always keep 'Him' first and don't get lost or distracted in all the noise and he'll take care of the rest.
When she said she always used to do things but just never got lucky,i just started crying...because im a mother of 3 and also a singer but i haven't found that luck. Something about Lilie's voice just gets me sobbing like a baby😢
Lily is from my hometown but I’m down here in Georgia now but that woman has a voice of an angel she reminds me a little bit of Whitney and a little bit of Diana Ross she is amazing
What an incredible voice! I have goosebumps in all her performances. She could have been one of the best divas ever when she was younger but that was her own destiny to raise a beautiful family. She's still blessed because at 54 years old she was able to showcase her talent by joining the X-Factor. For me, she's the winner of the X Factor and truly one of the best among those who joined this contest.😍😍😍
She's actually recorded 5 albums including 3 of them prior to appearing on the show. She also made it to the Billboard charts back in the day. Probably left the business because her career wasn't taking off the way she wanted. Something that often happens to a lot of really talented people given how competitive the music business is.
@@scribe712Nice comment 👌. Sums up this life. That the race is not won by the fastest ,nor battles won by the strongest. Neither are the most hardworking or smartest the wealthiest, but Gods mercy and time and chance that makes the difference .
I completely agree and Demi Lovato is completely off for this comment @19:17 This song and rendition are perfection and the crowds reaction alone is proof of that. I love the way Simon played along for a second and then was like nah never mind it was amazing 😂 Demi must’ve felt embarrassed. As Paula has said Lillie is a goddess.
At this day, 10 years later, I still can't believe how she couldn't achieve more into the industry... It feels like someone in a high level didn't want her to succeed, because she has everything, EVERYTHING to succeed. I come quite often to look for her performances to watch them again. An absolute class act. All the love and blessings for her ❤🍾🥂🙏🌠
Lillie, you don't have to be a Mariah Carey or Whitney Houston for your range to be perfect to sound good. You're fifty-four, and you've made it thus far. Trust me, it's not over for you. You still have so much singing to do around the world. Blessed be, and keep singing.
Because she spoke her mind to Simon, that happened to her. Those people don't like it when black women in particular stand there ground. She wasn't rude but stern ❤❤❤❤
Funny thingbis l agreed with Simon. When she sang “when a man loves a woman she overdid it with her spin on it” Just sing so we can hear your lovely voice.
Lillie McCloud was already a professional singer before she auditioned for X-Factor in 2013. She recorded four albums prior to appearing on the show and one album since then. Some of her songs even made it to the Billboard music charts. She told an interviewer the producers asked her to hide her previous music background by using a different name when she auditioned. So for those who are amazed by how professional and incredible she is, it's because she had prior experience in the music industry.
Hi good day beautiful good beautiful thank you claro analizando la voz de lily tiene buena voz veo ??? percusiono el sonido y voz thank you att " the charly" = liche"???
Amazing voice and presence and look. Wish they had got her to sing something a bit more diverse though. Something more upbeat and modern. She obviously could do the big ballads.
I loved this woman from the start when she was performing on X Factor. Amazing voice. Trying to recall if I ever heard a voice like that I remembered "What about Me" by Nicole, which I loved on first hearing. I bought it on 12" vinyl. So I can now say I have loved this woman's voice since 1985.
She don't need bootcamp. She sang like she's already up there with the celebrity gang🙌🏿
America really got it wrong this time sending this woman out of the competition. How I wish she did some Whitney Houston's songs. She would have done them incredibly well. Congratulations to her!
Yep like "they" got JHud wrong.
Simon trying to hold her back.
...I guess her forgot about Jennifer Hudson !
EGG-ZACTLY! I am not afraid to trryyy-it ooon my oown
Or Aretha Franklin. Not everyone understands this song. She has Stephanie Mills soul!

Your singing comes from your soul don’t let them mess with it!!
She is the defintion of a Soulsinger. Still Goosebumps in 2023❤🎉🎉
Yuppp... goosebumps in 2024 too!
@@roslynduemonte2274I was just about to say the same thing.
Still goosebumps in 2024🎉
And in 2024
Exactly! Music We need brought vack! REAL MUSIC!
Lily actually looks like a DOLL! A living doll...what a beautiful Black woman..her style / brand..sophistacation & AND THE SINGING😅😅😂 I can visualize a 'Lily doll' as a cherished gift in 'any' household. 🎉💥💫💯
She is confident and humble at the same time❤️
I really loved her. This is from about 10 yrs ago. She down Florida way, still performing I believe. She is a bad mofo!
BLACK DON'T CRACK!!💯
🙌🏾💜😊
Nombre de la cancion por favor

At fifty-four no one should spin you like a jig. Kelly was the only reason LILLY made it that far. She is going to be alright.
Yes, it's the same thing I said. I peeped Simon's smile he looked satisfied that she was leaving.
She is a great singer,somebody is going to give her a contract
Oh my, God given talent, she's exceptional. ❤
10000000
This woman made me cry when singing „When a man loves a woman“. She nailed it! And she sang from all her experience. THiS is music. ❤ thank you. ❤
She is always fantastic, a superstar like Gladys Night, Anita Baker or Dionne Warwick. She should sang the next James Bond Title Song ❤
THE SHOW IS FIXED!!
They did not want a beautiful , classy ,Black woman to win with one of the best voices since Whitney Houston!!
You’ve said it all
It definitely has many thoughts. But kn6ow the lord knows better
Since when? Unless this is from the 20-teens.
When she spoke up to Simon you knew she was going to be axed

カッコええなー❣️❣️
素敵なヴォイスと美貌、本当に５４歳なの！？
A totally professional, diamond performance! Lillie is a sensation.
She is beyond Incredible pure love and CON VICtion thankYOU FOR THE PRIVLIDGE❤
Absolutely Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
She has me in tears.. What an incredible voice!! She is not only talented but anointed. Her voice doesn't just sound good but it touches the heart!
This woman for her age, and her performance, she’s absolutely stunning and beautiful and gorgeous. I believed she is the winner 🏆.
It's like Tina Turner and late career Whitney lent their voices and presence to the performance. absolutely wonderful...moved me. Thank you Lillie McCloud.
Her voice reminds me so much of Gladys Knight!!💖💖
She does not look 54....she looks 30 at best. Wow!!!! The minute she opened her mouth to sing, i got goosebumps! ❤ Now i need to go google her.
She took my breath away!! She was stunning in every way.
This lady must win this contest. She made alive again the talents nonpareil of the greats like Whitney Houston, Diana Ross, Gladys Knight and Dionne Warwick.
This was from years ago ! She didn’t win
She appeared on the show in 2013. She made it to the final 8 but was eliminated. She recorded 4 albums before appearing on the show and 1 album since then.
Why was she Eliminated she sang as good as Anyone I. Have seen does not make any sense some body needs to explain it to me❤
@@jeffreyspatzspatz3863 Kelly choose the wrong songs coming up to the finals....the divas songs would of blown the roof off place
And Stephanie Mills and Niecy!! Singers that make me well up. Brilliant !!
I love the way Lillie sang that Ala baster jar. Ce-ce did good but this version is amazing.
I remember this lady, Top 10 in looks, hair, figure, sound. I immediately could hear her doing the theme to James Bond or something as epic. Class Act.
Absolutely on point 👍
Nailed it with the Bond movie theme.
Totally incredible I felt Everything Was hen She Started SINGING FrOM BEGINNINg TO END I wanT TO HEAR Her SINGINg To RIGHT NOW❤️
SOMETHING OrIgINAL JUST FOR LILLY MacLOUD maYBE
She is Excellent wish only good things for her ❤️
残れなかったのは残念ですが
この番組の中だけでもステージでこんなに輝けたのは良かった おめでとうと言いたい😂🎉 だってこれは多くの人にとって叶わない夢だよ 羨ましいほど素敵です。もしかしたら30代の時のだったらもっと声が出てたかも知れないとも思ってしまうけど 間違いなく今しか出来ない表現もあると思う。この方はこのタイミングで輝いてみんなの心に残る人なんだろうな。本当にすごく誰もが認めるようなスーパースターになれる人はやっぱり特別に神様からお役目を与えられてそうなっているのかな、と思いました。
There is no comparing Lilly to anyone! She is a star in her own space. 🔥🔥🥰💜💜💜💜💜💜
Lillie was the best singer I've ever heard!! She made me feel every song that she sang!!! Especially the song WHO WANTS TO LIVE FOREVER!!! I LOVE U LILLIE

Please don’t mess with her let her continue to do what she does!!
リリーさんの 瞳や表情も、もちろん歌も素敵❤✨👏✨👏❤

The world is waiting for this lady😢😢😢😢
Lillie is truly a wonderfully gifted Singer. I hope to hear more from her in the future. A class act with a 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Performance at all times.
When she said she always used to do things but just never got lucky,i just started crying...because im a mother of 3 and also a singer but i haven't found that luck. Something about Lilie's voice just gets me sobbing like a baby😢

Gifted and gracious. All in his time. True beauty!
Lillie should have won just like Tom Ball earlier this year on BGT and AGT. She has a fantastiv voice.
I love the Alabaster box , always makes me cry whenever I listen to that song, it is one of the most beautiful songs ever
somebody's face was RED throughout their opinion!!!

Bc the industry doesn't really recognise real singing anymore. They want barely dressed with a lot of twerking.
Was this 10 years ago

I 100% agree with you!!
Did you see the smirk on his face when she was voted out!!
😢
Yep! Their opinions were confusing 😔 but sometimes it's best to smile and say ok! She knows she can sing, just continue to be yourself no matter what!
Funny thingbis l agreed with Simon. When she sang “when a man loves a woman she overdid it with her spin on it”
Just sing so we can hear your lovely voice.
I never heard that song before but l felt it. An incredible voice.❤
"A HOUSE IS NOT A HOME" sung by Mavis Staples, Dionne Warwick, Luther Vandross. And now Lillie McCloud is added to the list❤
Lillie McCloud was already a professional singer before she auditioned for X-Factor in 2013. She recorded four albums prior to appearing on the show and one album since then.

She sounds professional but God bless her, she earned it. It's her voice no matter her experience.
rock the house was a big hit in the 90s..Nicole McCloud
We need more entertainers like LILLIE McCloud
Seeing and hearing her remind me of Whitney Houston.
リアルタイムで見てたけど今だに強烈に記憶に残ってる
The audience should have paid to see this performance! This was a great performance by a seasoned singer! Wow, just wow. 🎉
彼女の日本公演が有ったらぜったい聞きに行くけど…。
I’m sure she made CeCe Winans proud. I love this performance.
Hi good day beautiful good beautiful thank you claro analizando la voz de lily tiene buena voz veo ??? percusiono el sonido y voz thank you att " the charly" = liche"???
Well, beautiful song, beautiful voice
She sounds like a 60s soul legend and looks like Whitney's sister
Amazing voice and presence and look. Wish they had got her to sing something a bit more diverse though. Something more upbeat and modern. She obviously could do the big ballads.
I loved her. What happened too her she should have won that whole competition hands down
Her voice is Beautiful like her , May you continue to be blessed your my winner forever
She has the talent she has the powers come out we need to see more of her
Just beautiful singy sister 👋🏿👋🏿👋🏿 keep doing good thang ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
A new Whitney Houston
She sing so well, she is a superstar like Whitney Houston.
Wow. What a voice.
Girl, ain’t no mountain high enough!
I love that she put it in His hands saying "God knows what he is doing ❤🙂 i cried through out her performance i knew (felt) how much she wanted that
I’m glad she spoke out because Simon was very confusing. One day too much and one day not enough.
Literally a voice you could never get tired of!!!!!!!!!
shes the goat no one sing like her
She reminds me of Whitney Houston. Her mannerism when she sang was like Whitney’s.
This singer is absolutely beautiful and dear God thank you 🙏🏿
Beautiful! Singer like Phillips Hyman, & Angela Bofield!
アメリカの力 って こういうこと、歌手 って こういうひとであり、歌 って こう届くべし…全て 人間
The crowd yelling for which person to leave is so brutal. Lily is a beautiful storyteller.
Ella debio ganar la competencia la mejor voz de esta temporada, ella es una estrella, bellisima mujer, la amo... Que Dios la bendiga 🙏
Yes
Y'all wrong.
She doesn't need the competition , she's already a star. She has the voice and the clothes for the stage .

Quite a diva with a unique voice range and l love her!
Where’s Lily and what and where is she performing now because I would love to see her perform. She’s absolutely an incredible singer! 💯💯💯💯❤️❤️
