Girlband leave Cheryl IMPRESSED with Sam Brown cover! | The X Factor Auditions

Cheryl is more than a judge to Girlband: the best friends describe her as their inspiration. Their audition returns in The X Factor UK's two uploads this week, with Sam Brown's "Stop" as their calling card.

"Girlband leave Cheryl IMPRESSED with Sam Brown cover! | The X Factor Auditions" gives the performance its longer showcase. The companion clip cuts straight to the four women harmonizing onstage, with Louis Walsh listening at the desk and Cheryl smiling as they sing. It is a small piece of the show's familiar audition ritual: performers facing someone whose own pop career helped bring them there.

The short clip has drawn about 47,000 views, while the longer upload has reached roughly 9,000. It also has the most daily momentum among the channel's active videos, followed by September's "NOSTALGIA FEST: ICONIC AUDITIONS from ICONIC ACTS!" That compilation offers a broader reunion, from Matt Cardle and Alexandra Burke to the individual auditions of the future Little Mix members.

The subscriber count held steady over the week, though daily viewing is currently running at nearly three times its usual level. Among nearby talent-show channels, The Voice is seeing a particularly strong daily lift, while American Idol is running a little below its typical pace.

For The X Factor UK, the week's fresh attention centers on a group singing to impress a former girl-group star, with Cheryl's reaction part of the performance's appeal.
