I bet you're the TakeThat generation and as this you always will like any of the songs no matter who covers it. But an artist need to attract also younger generations without knowledge to TakeThat and their songs. So, Simon is completely right. And the transformation to the last song is really a completely other level of musicians, voice and band interpretation. 😊

This is what Simon also stated, but Simon also could notice much more of the boys' talents in singing. And that was in my oppinion what Simon convinced to with them the next step. 😉
I need to agree with Simon that not all had good voices. They can all sing, but just few of them if great voices. In final song you notice the perfect harmony, because Simon let just those boys sind the complex sing parts who have the talent. And this is not bad meant, in any band you will just have one or max. two main singers who have the big talent. 😉
They went from boy band in the first two songs to boy choir in the last song. Nonetheless, they have amazing talent and I can’t wait to hear more from them.
I was a Canadian Idol find.. and I can tell you that was all staged, right down to Simon's dislike-turned-to-acceptance. Having said all that... wow.. these boys have a massive future in music if they find the right people and songs. I wish them every success!!! Oh wait.. that was 2010 lolz. What a shame.
@@MrBeevee5 No I don't agree. If he didn't care about them he would just have let them carry on as they are and fail miserably, it's no skin off his nose. He saw their talent being wasted and set them on a better path while they still have a chance. It takes guts to be the villain, especially when everyone else is praising them to the skies because they don't want to be seen to be mean.
Simon saying "backstreetboysare way out of date", is not even close to the truth. Glad Simon took bac what he said, those boys singing the backstreet boys was awesome to me. Whitney Huston, Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley are not here no more and people sing their songs and are amazing. I'm about to take Simon's place and give this boy band a golden buzzer. Seriously they are good with both songs
Really pissed me off when Simon said it was dated. Sometimes I genuinely feel like he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. It’s not about the age of the song, it’s about the talent that goes in to covering it. There was one time when a girl came on and did “Nothing Compares” and he loved it. He’s so inconsistent with his judgements.
No, he didn't mean the song was dated, it doesn't work that way with music! He meant the whole concept, the 'look' was dated. I think he's right about it being put together by their mums. They need to find something of their own.
I guess that's the point though. Tribute bands have their place but it's not on BGT where they are looking for something original. A nice bunch of lads though.
Indeed, "I want it that way" and not the original way anymore. I need their version of that song for my playlist. And they were if at all not 15 years late, but 15 years early - the 90es retro wave is definitely coming in if you listen to contemporary songs...
How many times have we seen Simon, in a suit and tie! This Boyband Quintet has gotten Simon to wear a suit and tie! Usually, Simon wears tee shirts for any occasion! Twisted Happens only on BGT!
This audition seems so staged. They had the second song and performance in their back pocket but decided to choose a a cliche boy band that honestly I did not find that sang that great.
This group is incredible! So what if they sing some old songs? Songs have been recycled for decades by lots of groups. The thing is they put their own spin on them and, like I said, they're incredible! ❤😊
It's not about the songs. It was the look and the choreographed moves that were dated. They've been done to death by various boy band wannabes. Where was 'their own spin'? I remember those scarves being fashionable when I was a teenager!
@@myutube5882 I'm not saying they aren't talented lads, just that I can see Simon's point. There was nothing we hadn't seen before, nothing that made them stand out from the crowd and make them memorable. There is nothing wrong with their singing. Maybe it's because they are all so young they are still finding their identity.
I'm not sure what Simon think now about this video, because he have a son of himself now, and how he would feel if someone would treat his son like that, because he have himself a great son like that.
Oh wow, what a tramandous quality advancement in voice of then, amazing. Simon really transformed a raw diamond into a brilliant shining one. Really impressive. 😲
OK, simple internet search. The kids toured with the BGT traveling show. Shortly later, Connected ditched the twins with no warning, just after a show where they were still friends, and the three left became Reconnected and stayed together just a short time. Yes, there were Contracts, song, shows, even a top 40. The whole thing stretched from 2010 to 2015, if I remember correctly. And the final three unconnected to pursue solo careers which never really happened. I see a lot of adult manipulation in how this played out. Quite sad. Perhaps the 5 might meet up, discuss how they were played as pawns, forgive each other, and sing in pubs for fun and real friendship. So sorry these best of friends were pulled apart by nefarious grown-ups who could only see money. I bet that original break-up was traumatizing and bitter.
says they were out dated--what about him--he is very out dated--i think if a bunch of young boys like them get together and sing nsync -backstreet boys or even new kids on the block--and sound good thenits not out dated--its beautiful
They need Simon Cowell to bring them up to tomorrow else they're just a tribute band who's unique aspect is they're young teens, which will last a couple of years
One thing I don't understand is.......what the heck is wrong with out of date? Good music is good music. Yeah I know that the current society I suppose wants new and upcoming music, so that's why Simon said they were out dated. They may not make it in the current industry. Still, good music is good music. Yeah, I am no expert in the music industry. LOL!! I guess it is what it is, but am happy that Simon at least can't control all the music out there. I would miss the stuff I love. These kids kind of remind me of a younger version of the boy band Collabro, which I love as well.
I feel like they just weren't ready. At times their harmonies were great, and at other times they just didn't blend well. They are talented for sure, but i don't think they were ready for this.
I agree with Simon, nothing us wrong with that, the second audition Simon tried to create what's in his mind, good but these boys proved yo have their style, maybe they're original. 🙏.
I think what Simon's talking about is that they tried too hard to "be" the Backstreet Boys rather than just be inspired by them. However, very, VERY poor choice of words...
When people or kid come out to sing and then Simon says it's dated but the next time change clothes hair and songs and they are just them self but change clothes and hair and don't look like what did the first time they came on stage and then each time they come on stage has to be bigger and better than before
The best sign is how they brushed off the criticism and went right into the next song with no loss of positive energy.
Ridiculous
@@Lorenz-Bruchtal; I happen to think it was a great comment !
Staged. I work in the industry.
Not dated. I could listen to their harmonies any time.
I think they sound terrible, in both songs.
😂😂

Took me back to the boring 90s
@@johnanderson8123 You must be tone deaf.
That second song took it over the top. The second performance was great!

You are lacking comparisons. Out.
Brilliant talent and so good to see them using their time so positively 😊
Where exactly do you see any "brilliant" talent???
Shut up
"Here's the problem: That song is15 years out of date". "We have another song!" Cue the song that's three times older... Gotta love irony.
LOL That's what i said too
Me too! 😊
Lol simon😂😂😂😂😂I
This is what Simon also stated, but Simon also could notice much more of the boys' talents in singing. And that was in my oppinion what Simon convinced to with them the next step. 😉
Nope! The difference is the 2nd song was not sung by a boy band so it resonated differently. You totally missed that.
They've got great voices and excellent stage presence.

It's not a chor, it's a real boy band now with an individual and professional harmony. 😊
Great singing they are stars who need to be supported all the way they remind me of the Beatles
Amazing talent and presence. Theyve got the smarts as well.
They are Great ! ❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Simon gets way more credit than he deserves. The other two were more solid judges.
Omg they stay composed throughout the entire thing, ugh I love that , like nerves don't affect them, very good

These young talents are amazing. Lots of wishes, prayers and blessings for their bright future.🎉❤🙏
This was back in 2010, they split up soon after this
Simon is tough, but truthful. They were terrific.
Sensational! These kids are really good!
I absolutely love them! Wishing them success!
I think they were amazing and could listen to them all day. Simon is too hard on people. I just love the songs they picked. Great job guys.♥♥♥
He loves to do that for his own reputation and not because he's better.
@@MrBeevee5 No I don't agree. If he didn't care about them he would just have let them carry on as they are and fail miserably, it's no skin off his nose.

Great voices definitely have my vote
I hope and pray they stayed together. They are great! Their vocals are tight!
70s and 80s were the best time for music, bring it back.
Super harmonious refreshing ❤

Harry’s voice is amazing

Simon knows what he is doing!
Wow, they are so good!!!
Ain’t no mountain old enough including song choice for these lads they got talent and charisma

they almost sound the same as the backstreat boys and Westlife, incredible voices and they should do more auditions and win awards
I guess that's the point though. Tribute bands have their place but it's not on BGT where they are looking for something original. A nice bunch of lads though.
SHUT UP! You got NO idea!
If only this hadn't been 14 years ago...
Boy bands won't ever be out of date. If a group can sing a great song in a great way, the market will buy it.
Indeed, "I want it that way" and not the original way anymore. I need their version of that song for my playlist. And they were if at all not 15 years late, but 15 years early - the 90es retro wave is definitely coming in if you listen to contemporary songs...
they are cute kids with great potential, and wish they will go far ...good luck boys❤❤❤❤

id buy their records right now
They were good but they broke up some time after 💔 they'd all be in their mid-twenties now.
VERY VERY GOOD
The contrast of their audition and the finals video is dramatic. Wow!
I love their dedication. Inspiring!
They are amazing :)
Alllll great voices❤🎉
They are great!
Silly Simon. He forgets it's just a talent show & not a radio addition.
They are great!👏👏
Simon has to do it the hard way. Those poor boys.
brilliant and good senses of words from Simon
This audition seems so staged. They had the second song and performance in their back pocket but decided to choose a a cliche boy band that honestly I did not find that sang that great.
For once I think Simon hit the nail on the head.
He is right they do need new stuff! But they are good .
This kind of thing informs all youngsters to take the chance to ruin their lives.
Simon is 100 percent correct.
simon your millioon takes years

So the twist is that there was no twist.
I'm not sure what Simon think now about this video, because he have a son of himself now, and how he would feel if someone would treat his son like that, because he have himself a great son like that.
I'm sure if his son went on a show like this he'd expect him to get an honest appraisal.
I think Simon is the one who's dated lol Those kids are great!
Just bumped into this. What happened to them? Where are they now?
Simon practically killed the budding carreer of these young people.
THAT WAS INSANEEEEE 😮❤❤❤❤
WOW. ❤️❤️
Definitely dated, but huge potential with a great song written for them!
The last person that you want to get approval from is Piers Morgan lol. They were good though.
Come on Simon, it's not so much what they sang, its how well they performed.
Simon is right.
Every talented kid needs a break. These guys are going to be big with the right management (Simon).
This was in 2010, and they split soon after the show
Beautiful
And that ladies and gentlemen is how diddler gets his chickens 🐣🐣🐣🐣🐣
WTF??
You made a mistake in the title. You put BGT instead of X Factor
they sang great
They are talented
Screw that, these boys were awesome
Oh wow, what a tramandous quality advancement in voice of then, amazing. Simon really transformed a raw diamond into a brilliant shining one. Really impressive. 😲
So, what year was this, and what's happened since?
OK, simple internet search. The kids toured with the BGT traveling show. Shortly later, Connected ditched the twins with no warning, just after a show where they were still friends, and the three left became Reconnected and stayed together just a short time.

Didn't even last that long, they split up soon after this
Yeah I saw them in TikTok 🥰
100% pre-scripted setup here. There's zero change that was off the cuff.
No Valley song is also an old song done long ago.
One thing I don't understand is.......what the heck is wrong with out of date? Good music is good music.

anyone know if they are still making music together?
I really think Simon sets some of these "come backs" up on purpose.
Everyone commenting on a 2010 audition, they didn't stay 'Connected' they split up soon after this!
Where they are today?
And went to medical school?
@@gerardo8av the two brothers and Matthew got back together and they’re now called “Reconnected” instead, 3 members out of 5
@ thanks!
@@gonoahwhere they did do that, but split back up again in 2014
Simon is right. They have the talent but they need some direction .
So then they go back 50+ years, and still impress Simon.
I don’t know what’s going on when i see boy band I remember one direction when they’re young and until getting older until they lost someone Liam 😢
There is nothing on youtube about them. which is sad. Oh i see, the rebranded as Reconnected.
They worked hard come on
I feel like they just weren't ready. At times their harmonies were great, and at other times they just didn't blend well. They are talented for sure, but i don't think they were ready for this.
I agree with Simon, nothing us wrong with that, the second audition Simon tried to create what's in his mind, good but these boys proved yo have their style, maybe they're original.
🙏.
I think what Simon's talking about is that they tried too hard to "be" the Backstreet Boys rather than just be inspired by them. However, very, VERY poor choice of words...
Great but why was the 2nd song better because it's an older song?
More enthusiasm and showing off individual voices more, without breaking the harmonies when they were in chorus together.
It was ironic Simon wanted something newer and then they gave something older lol
Because the first song was.... Lightweight.
Quality is never dated Simon. These boys were cute, but their harmonisation was very mature. What happened to these little friends with big voices?
Simon ever like dem hell nooo😢y tho
Is Connected still A Group ?
Tell me this wasn't scripted. Ha, ha, ha!
It is this edition of Simon I like best; An honest straightforward assessment, but with a touch of Grace. He has been a bit too soft over time.
I hate it when they mis the second chorus that makes if
When people or kid come out to sing and then Simon says it's dated but the next time change clothes hair and songs and they are just them self but change clothes and hair and don't look like what did the first time they came on stage and then each time they come on stage has to be bigger and better than before
