Only 2 decent singers on X Factor

[stoop]

I must agree - can't stand Cowell or the program. If he really was interested in finding talented singers he wouldn't be wasting his time with this rubbish.

  Matt and Rebecca are not rubbish Stoop

  Like Olly Murs.Matt is a local lad to us so I would like him to win

  They should rename the show the EsseX Factor

dare I say - who cares. I've had my fill of this horrible TV - strictly, X factor, i'm a celebrity, best thing about X faxtor is thet we might have a descent song in the charts for christmas again (and I'm not talking X factor number one) - Rage against the machine is not exactly my style but it has some character- more so than this sickly sweet- pre-packaged garbage we are getting from the Cowell factory.

That feels good.

although I do think that Rebecca has a great voice, she is in danger of having it knocked out of her.

And what does he know - and what does the show achieve anyway? Certainly not Cowell & Co. being able to whittle entrants down to the one with the "X Factor", whatever that may be. The chosen one each year rarely goes on to achieve much. The wisdom of Cowell not only saw Diana Vickers not even reach the 2008 final, but no record contract was forthcoming from Mr. Music either (although it was announced there would be, but he pulled out). That's Diana Vickers, now with a No.1 single and album under her belt this year.

If he can't see it when it's placed in front of him, we should be grateful. Even Jedward did better than last year's winner

and Cowell claimed that Kids in America and The last time ever I saw your face were great American anthems, what's that about.

I think the ultimate outcome of this whole X factor "thing" (vote rigging aside !), will probably be a social network led campaign to actually vote one of these clowns (Jedward/ Wagner types) to eventually win it, then hopefully we will see an end to it all.

Though I understand it is fairly good light entertainment, and there is undoubtedly some good talent on show, the only real winner will be Mr. Cowell (Kerching!), it's all getting a bit "long in the tooth now".

I never said they were! It's the format that's a rubbish way to find talent.

They might have good voices but you could go round any bar on karaoke night and find just as good.

Oh thank goodness that the over-hyped Cher Lloyd has gone.

Agreed, but I can't help thinking she will sell more than any of the other three, irrespective of who wins.

True, but she will fade away just like Steve....forgotten his last name, and er...er...see what i mean?
