WATCH: Pinoy enters top 5 of 'X Factor Australia'

MANILA, Philippines — Filipino-Australian Cyrus Villanueva made it to the top five of reality talent show "X Factor Australia."

The 19-year-old singer wowed judges and the audience with his rendition of "Knocking On Heaven's Door" during the show's November 2 episode. 

Mentored by Chris Isaak, Cyrus is part of the competition's Under 25 Boys category.

"Cyrus, the question is not what can you sing but what can’t you sing. I think I have caught the Cyrus virus," judge James Blunt said of Cyrus' performance.

The Fil-Aussie previously impressed the judges of the show with his performance of Adele's "Rumor Has It" during the show's Trailblazers week and "It Ain't Over 'til It's Over" by Lenny Kravitz during the show's Rock week.
