Jai Waetford - I Won't Give Up - The X Factor Australia - Full Video

Jai Waetford sang “I Won't Give Up” on The X Factor Australia 2013 Live Show 9.

Well, glad to see it only took Ronan nine friggin' weeks to put a guitar back in Jai's hands. Of course, by the end of the song it was clear why Ronan had kept it out of his hands. Even before the slip-up, I felt this performance was pretty underwhelming, and at least half of that is because of the uninspired song choice (seriously, I'd pay not not have to hear another person do this song on a competition like this). Jai has certainly grown a lot, but even now he still has a long way left to go. I still like Jai, and I feel bad that this happened to him, but ultimately I don't think the slip-up will matter with the voting public one iota.
