Dean Ray sings 'Crying' on The X Factor Australia 2014 (VIDEO)

Dean Ray sang 'Crying' on The X Factor Australia 2014 Live Show 9 on Sunday, October 5, 2014.

Performance of the season, in my opinion. In fact, this is one of my favorite performances ever on The X Factor Australia. Dean is frigging legend, connecting to songs across eras and genres in ways that not many contestants on a show ever do. Hell, many successful recording artists don't even convey the level of feeling Dean does in his live performances. There was absolutely nothing about this that I didn't love, and I absolutely agreed with the judges not only giving this a standing O, but with Dannii and Nat getting on top of the table for it. Just sensational, in my opinion.

But what do you think of Dean Ray?
