0:00Cari Fletcher opens the compilation with Heart's "Alone" on The X Factor.
4:26Jade Mathieu performs "Reflection" from Mulan on Canada's Got Talent.
10:41Maria Laroco sings Prince's "Purple Rain" for the UK X Factor judges.
14:33Sharyn Ward introduces herself and discusses her Irish Traveller heritage.
17:06Ward's audition moves from "Stand By Me" to an a cappella rendition of "Sweet Sixteen."

Sharyn Ward starts with "Stand By Me," but Louis Walsh wants to hear an Irish song. She responds with "Sweet Sixteen," sung a cappella, leaving the backing track behind. It is a change of direction worth revisiting in Talent Recap's busiest new upload, and the comments include viewers discussing that second song and her choice of an Irish ballad.

The channel posted 15 uploads this week, drawing on television performances rather than staging new auditions. Its most-watched release, "They Walked On Like Supermodels…Then Their VOICES Brought Simon to His FEET!", has reached roughly 266,000 views. Alongside Ward, it features Cari Fletcher singing Heart's "Alone," Jade Mathieu performing "Reflection" and Maria Laroco taking on "Purple Rain." The compilation is also the channel's strongest source of daily viewing among its currently busy videos.

Elsewhere, Bonavega's 2020 America's Got Talent appearance supplies a rock-flavored change of mood. A longer retrospective revisits the show's 2015-2019 auditions, bringing together acts as different as guitarist Marcin Patrzalek, silent comic Tape Face and magician Shin Lim.

Talent Recap collected about 14 million views across the week, with subscribers unchanged. Daily viewing is currently less than half its usual level. Among nearby talent-show channels, Top 10 Talent had a particularly large week, while Britain's Got Talent was much closer to its customary daily audience.

Older compilations remain part of Talent Recap's viewing mix: an October collection of young Got Talent performers has passed a million views and continues to attract substantial daily attention.
