Earlier in the competition, the Filipino singer had earned <strong>Simon Cowell\u2019s Golden Buzzer<\/strong>, sending him straight into the live shows. Now, with a place in the Grand Final at stake, he needed to deliver all over again.<\/p>\n<p>Matty chose an enormous challenge: Aerosmith\u2019s legendary rock ballad <strong>\u201cDream On.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rather than simply copying the original, Matty turned the song into a dramatic showcase for his own voice. He began with controlled, emotional vocals before gradually building toward the huge notes the song is famous for. His range, charisma and effortless power transformed the semi-final stage into something that felt more like his own concert.<\/p>\n<div class=\"b-r b-r--after_p_1\"><\/div>\n<p>By the end, both the judges and audience were on their feet. Alesha Dixon described the performance as \u201ceffortlessly sensational\u201d and praised it as a masterclass in delivering a great vocal.<\/p>\n<div class=\"b-r b-r--middle_content\"><\/div>\n<p>Then Amanda Holden decided applause wasn\u2019t enough.<\/p>\n<p>She slammed her <strong>Golden Buzzer<\/strong>, covering Matty in gold and sending him directly into the Grand Final. It was an especially remarkable moment because Matty had now received <strong>two Golden Buzzers in the same BGT season<\/strong>\u2014first from Simon and then from Amanda.<\/p>\n<p>Taking on \u201cDream On\u201d is risky for almost any singer. Matty didn\u2019t just survive it\u2014he turned it into the performance that secured his place in the final.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Matty Juniosa&amp;apos;s DREAMY Aerosmith cover won Amanda&amp;apos;s GOLDEN BUZZER! | Semi-Finals | BGT 2026\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FYbV4PkUWAw?feature=oembed\" width=\"730\" height=\"411\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-original-w=\"730\" data-original-h=\"411\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"b-r b-r--after_content\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div class=\"rating-box\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Matty Juniosa already had something extraordinary to live up to when he returned for the Britain\u2019s Got Talent 2026 semi-finals.
