"I always think it's plus points if you're a songwriter and you sing your own song," James Reid told Ganzon.

"I like the song. I like how you performed it. I like your voice. My problem is, you guys have the same sound to me. You all sound the same. I know that it's current, but you sound the same. And the thing is, I know that you're making this sound. It's not something that you're born with," Regine Velasquez said.

Despite Velasquez's comment, Ganzon still received four "yesses" from the judges.

Hosted by Billy Crawford, "Idol Philippines" airs Saturdays after "Home Sweetie Home" and Sundays after "Wansapanataym."
