What was THAT?

[sir.prize]

Did anyone see that pathetic final act on X-Factor. Unbelievably Louis Walsh said he would change from tonight onwards.

They must have been watching something different to me.

[Prudie]

That's even better, how can anyone call that crapola?

[LoftyLottie]

Because people like pop type music sung by girl/boy bands or wailing ladies like Leona Lewis etc, which is what you normally get on X factor, Prudie.
Mind you I wouldn't rave about him, but I find him quite listenable.

Lottie - I won't criticise your judgement, but I just watched a little of the clip you posted. The poor guys first three separate mutterings were like groans of acute constipation. Should go far with those qualities.

[LoftyLottie]

:o)

[RATTER15]

He didnt do it for me, just something about his attitude put me off him before he sang a note really.

Can I just ask what kind of music you are into SirP? From your posts the other day I can tell you're not a rocker either.

Genuinely curious here.. :)

I watched the first 10 secs, didn't like and hit the mute button.

erin-x. Yes you are right; I am exceptionally particular when it is a choice of music/entertainment. I admire and enjoy the skills of people having taken the trouble to learn thoroughly their art. ie classical, operatic and specifically musicals (West End and Broadway). There is a lot to be said for the artistes who devote their time and persevere with vocal training, presentation and being articulate.
I have no time at all for those who merely grab a hoodie, pluck - yes pluck - not play a guitar, and jump onto a stage not even bothering to look presentable.

Am I wrong, erin-x?

[Zacs-Master]

You're not wrong. Just a different generation.

[ummmm]

Not wrong, imo, just missing out.

[sir.prize]

Zacs-Master - you got it.

ummmm - thanks for your view.; and some I am happy to be missing out.

[ummmm]

Oh...I also thought he was okay.

[erin-x]

Well this is where our opinion differs. I think all music is a craft which has to be studied and perfected. Not everyone can do what they do and I admire every musician.

And as for the hoodie comment, I don't care what someone looks like. You listen with your ears not your eyes.

Toes - My choice of entertainment was web surfing and contributing to AnswerBank. I happened to be in the same room as someone who DOES like X-Factor.

[Zacs-Master]

I still think 'pathetic' was waaaaaay over the top.

[curlyperm11]

I thought he was good

[fredkins]

I thought he was good aswell.good luck to him.

[sir.prize]

Your opinion Zacs-Master and I respect that.

Equally as I said earlier I can not listen to or understand groups like Foo Fighters. During the Olympic celebrations I also expressed my dismay at the inclusion of Russell Brand whom I also tag as pathetic.

Then of course there is someone in another field - the depicable Frankie Boyle who claims to be a member of the comedians' fraternity. Sorry Zacs, once more pathetic.

I thought he was good but just sounded like an Ed Sheerin clone with a bit of rap thrown in.
