In previous years they have excluded them from the iTunes chart, sometimes there are a few glitches and they appear before getting removed.

 

I think the most recent year they were on iTunes, 2015, Fleur East got to #1 with Uptown Funk? So I think they allowed it last time so hopefully they will again!

Rita Ora being 2 was fake news then?

No, it obviously didn't get that far ahead and swapped back with Marshmello!

TXF performances are being advertised on iTunes, so surely they are chart eligible? I don’t remember them being advertised on the front page of iTunes before?

They were always advertised on the front page! :P

#30 Liam Payne - Bedroom Floor

No X Factor recordings top 1500 yet, either they aren't being allowed to show or there's an error - I think it's going to be the latter and they'll all pop up by tomorrow.

iTunes hasn't updated - Liam was #30 before his performance and is still #30.

Tori's Hollow has entered the top 1500 though (albeit in the 800s) but Holly's version hasn't so it has updated at least fairly recently. I'd have expected a couple to appear almost immediately on the strength of their fanbases, even before the show started.

23. Bedroom Floor - Liam Payne

79. Too Young (X Factor Recording) - Grace Davies

377. City of Stars (X Factor Recording) - Lloyd Macey

982. This Is My Now (X Factor Recording) - Alisah Bonaobra

 

1055. Hollow (X Factor Recording) - Holly Tandy

 

Grace will go top 40. It’s an original

375. Hollow - Tori Kelly

Oh good, nice to see that all sorted out! I expect the top 4 in the vote was those 4 in that order too - and clearly ahead of the bottom 4. I think Rai-Elle was probably 5th so it'll be interesting to see if she is next to appear.

Amazing for Grace!! I knew she'd be quite a bit higher as her song's an original but that really is a great position so early on.

30. Grace Davies - Too Young (X Factor Recording)

124. Lloyd Macey - City of Stars (X Factor Recording)

281. Alisah Bonaobra - This Is My Now (X Factor Recording)

443. Holly Tandy - Hollow (X Factor Recording)

722. Spencer Sutherland - Who You Are (X Factor Recording)

Omg Grace

 

 

Are they proper studio recordings of the songs or live recordings? If so, I might give Grace's song a go and see how her voice is in studio form. Her quirks really annoy me otherwise, but I get the feeling they're more forced live than they would be in studio form.

Feels more forced for the studio version. Not as auto tuned as previous years tbf!

any sign of Jordin's original version of This Is My Now?
