dark light

Are those X-Factor judges blind?!

I’m sorry but Laura was the only one on their who I seen with perfect vocal use and brilliant potential, she is better than loads of them on there and I am furious that Daniel is in and he’s only in becuase a sympathy vote – he is cr*p! 😡 – Loads of them are not as good as Laura, the only ones left with talent that will be great in the public are Alexandra, Diana and JLS.

I think it’s called ‘having an opinion’, or something like that. 😎

Nothing wrong with having an opionion, but allow me to put it another way.
I belong to two particular makes of car forums and to my knowledge, no one has ever joined either of them with the sole intention of criticizing those makes.

On this forum, I have almost no interest in Modern Military Aviation, so I don’t look in there.;)

There are myriad other discussions on this forum that are of no interest to me, but I would never consider posting negative comments on them for the sake of showing my displeasure or voicing an opinion that the OP wouldn’t want to hear.

IMO, if someone can’t help themselves or resist the need to post negative comments about any particular topic, having done so once, surely the best course of action is to ignore the thread in future, instead of continuing their attempts to wreck it?

Did no one’s elders ever tell them “if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all”? :p

It may be dross to some (or most), but unfortunately these broadcast companies have to put out shows that they think will appeal to the masses at the correct times. The majority of the British public clearly show that the X Factor is what they want to see – as a result of ratings. If anyone has a problem with that; read a book, change the channel or go to the local for a few jars!

This thread is nonsense anyway, Diana was always going to win!

And yet here you are again, reading a topic about a subject that is of no interest to you?

Where’s that head scratching smilie when it’s needed?:D

Thanks Grey Area much more well out than my attempt below. More or less exactly the words I should have used

It was of interest to me otherwise I would have not posted.

The fact that I read the title and posted herein would mean that it was of interest to me.

The fact that the programme if you can call it that is a big pile of pants is my interest and opinion on the matter.

Or is it just that you feel the need to go over old news again.

I thought we had left that part of this post at the beginning when it was posted everyone else has posted their opinion on the matter and put aside my comment but here you are bringing it up again.

It seems that I am not the only one that doesnt like the programme there are a few others on this post that express that opinion.

Rather than waste anymore forum space on this please PM me and I will be happy to discuss this further with you. Same goes for anyone else who doesnt like my opinion on this programme. Let other folks enjoy their moan about X Factor

Each to their own I suppose.

I’m with Moggy on this one! Just surprised anyone cares. Apparently they get millions of viewers. What it takes to entertain people is clearly very little these days. The TV companies appear to assume that everyone has now been so dumbed-down by the dross they have churned out for last decade or so that it doesnt matter what c**p they produce, people will still watch. They certainly seem to lower the bar significantly each time programmes like this are produced.

Just my opinion….:diablo:

I’ve posted in the Remembrance threads and done my fair share of remembering over the years!

There are other more important things in life than the XFactor, but along with a million other things, it is a part of life and I personally enjoy it.:D

Anyone who posts here to complain, shouldn’t have bothered to read this thread in the first place, in my opinion. 😡
[/SIZE]

Should read the posts again matey.

The X Factor show is still a load of tripe.

Yes some very very talented people do come out of it but the show itself along with various other “reality” shows has run its course and should bow out gracefully.

And it makes great TV everyone of the panel bitching at each other.

One more thing cant they use better songs. Like give everyone a song that the personally like or has some meaning for them. Why do they make it a “insert your fav singer or band here” week and not just have song that suit each individual talents.

Heard it was Mariah Carey this week. Michael Jackson was being talked about the other week at work.

Anyone know what week it is going to be next Saturday.

Only asking as I am really hoping it Marilyn Manson or Metallica or something real of the wall like that. Come to think of it Metallica might be very interesting done in different styles.

See ya guys and girls.

The result was a complete travesty and proof that the public voting system is flawed.
Hopefully, Laura White will be offered a chance to do something useful with her talent, she was my pick to win the competition over Austin Drage in the final.:(

Simon Cowell wasn’t around after the show ended and I hope he was putting the wheels in motion to do something for her.

Rachel Hylton has no chance of being successful in the music industry, she doesn’t know how to listen and learn.

Ruth Lorenzo’s future looks bright and if she doesn’t go far in the UK, she could make a fortune here in Spain, her future looks very bright.

JLS are a waste of space, not a good lead voice between them and nowhere for them to go unless the teeny boppers vote them in.

Daniel Evans, he’s OK, but not as a recording artist, he’ll go down well in Benidorm or on a cruise ship.

Alexandra Burke, good voice, great personality, should do well now that Laura isn’t there.

Diana Vickers, the dark horse, she has something very different, but will it stand her in good stead for a long career?

Eoghan Quigg, I think he should have left it until next year, when he might have had a better chance.

Disclaimer: The above is my personal opinion and will have no bearing whatsoever on the outcome of this competition.

It is dross, but I’d like to think that “Talent” wins through. If the public vote then it probably won’t. Simon and the Irish fella know thier stuff, the girls on the panel are just there to look at.
I noitice also that to be a star in this arena (Chav/Pikey/ITV1) you need to be good looking, there are some right mingers getting through these days.

Despite my large amount of very serious experience in music as a sound engineer and musician, I’ve never actually heard a definition of ‘perfect vocal use’. Please give me one! 🙂

Paul

P.S. That wasn’t meant in a nasty way, I’m just very cynical! 😀

To be fair to the X factor, did you see who was at number 1 this week with a single, of which proceeds go to the ‘Help for Heroes’ Charity. I think that was a very good move by the show, and was really touched by the stories they showed on last week’s show.

On another note, the wrong two people were in the bottom two last night.

Regards,
Matt.

When someone goes a whole song without going flat from their key.

There’s more to it than that.

I can sing in tune, whereas Bryn Terfel has perfect vocal control.

Argubably, yes, becuase the more expression you can put across in a song then the more people will become caught in it.

What about going sharp? Being pitch perfect doesn’t make someone a good singer. Do tone, expression, feel and individuality not come into it, too? 😉

Are those X-Factor judges blind

I agree with the sentiments of Moggy C. I’m lucky as I am in charge of the remote control!. Nosmo
