What happens when Simon Cowell stops an audition and gives a contestant one unexpected instruction?

In this unforgettable audition from **The X Factor UK 2010 (Series 7)**, **Annastasia Baker** arrives ready to impress the judges with **"Proud Mary."** But Simon senses something isn't quite connecting.

Then he makes a surprising request:

**"Take your shoes off."**

Moments later, Annastasia returns with a completely different energy and performs **Adele's "Make You Feel My Love."**

The result is one of the most memorable turnarounds of the season.
