As Morris took on the stage, she explained that she would be using a looping device -- one that lets you record audio and play it on loop. In doing so, Morris was able to record herself playing multiple instruments in real-time, making her a literal one-woman band that had the judges and audience impressed. When it came down to it, Simon Cowell noted that it was a 'bit of a mess' at times, but explained that for performances as dynamic as hers, perfection was not the point. He claimed that what she did was 'absolute genius', with Morris bagging four yeses from the judges. Fans on YouTube had nothing but positive things to say about her performance as well.

Being able to BOTH write your own music & lyrics, playing BOTH guitar/bass/drums AND singing that smoothly is no easy feat, far from it ! This Young Lady right here is SUPER TALENTED & Musically GIFTED ! Again, it is for Legit Unique Talents like HER That I DO Watch such show !!!!" wrote a fan.

"This was so unique and definitely refreshing! She is such a star! She is the punk pop HER lol. Looping is one of the coolest things ever! I didn’t think it was messy at all. She is so original and I would 1,000% buy whatever music she puts out. She really is dipped in stardust." said another.
