00:00When I'm at school, in general, I think about singing all the time.

00:06I should really be concentrating on my work, but I just think about singing too much.

00:09It's a dream and I'd love to do it.

00:11Hello, sir.

00:12Hello.

00:13How you doing?

00:14What's your name?

00:15Liam.

00:16And what age are you?

00:17Fourteen.

00:18And why are you here?

00:19I'm here to win.

00:20A lot of people have said I'm a good singer.

00:21I've got the X Factor book.

00:22I don't really know what the X Factor is, and I believe that you guys do.

00:24And Liam, what are you going to sing?

00:26Fly Me to the Moon, Frank Sinatra.

00:27Great song.

00:28Simon loves swing.

00:31Fly me to the moon

00:33Let me play among the stars

00:37And let me see what spring is like on Jupiter and Mars

00:44In other words, hold my hand

00:51In other words, baby, kiss me

00:57Simon, what do you think?

00:58I think there is potential with you, Liam.

01:00I'm just missing a bit of grit, a bit of emotion, and actually a bit of fun, funnily enough.

01:07I like you. I think you're really cute.

01:09I think you've got charisma.

01:11You know, you give us that little cheeky wink.

01:13I think this kid could do fantastic in the show.

01:15You know, you're a young guy, good looking.

01:17People will like you, but there's something not quite...

01:21There's 20% missing from you at the moment.

01:24Well, give me another audition and I'll show you I've got that 20%.

01:27Cheryl? Cheryl, what do you think?

01:29Yes.

01:30Yes.

01:31You've got three yeses. You're through.

01:37I'm so proud. I'm the proudest mum.
