They are sooooooooooo cheesey its unbelievalble.Which is why they might win. Simon knows a good gimmick when he sees one. They will make a mint in kids tv.

Niki should have won. Or at least Rhydian. But no, that s**t Scottish boy had to. He's dull, boring. His vocals are NOWHERE near as good as Rhydians. Rhydian is in a totally exceeding league.
I've heard there are lots of complaints about the phone lines for Rhydian not working. Apparently it was all a fix.
Did anyone else watch the final?

leon won purely on emotion. He is an okay singer but nowhere in the same leaque as Rhyd. I would rather same difference have won it after that result. Hated the release song from both of them. Kylie minouge....oh lord what was she wearing..

Yeah I've heard that too, DM, about it being a fix. Don't think I'll bother watching next year... I thought Leon shouldn't have even gotten to the live finals, compared to some of the other contestants that didn't. Like that black lad, for example, his voice was pretty amazing, but he didn't get through. I still hate Same bloomin' Difference! Argh, not good. Apparently, Simon said that Niki's version of the single was the best, but oh no we won't get to hear that now. I preffered Rhydian's verion to Leon's though - at least I could understand what he was saying/singing. Cam... Ellie said exactly the same thing when she saw her... I heard Kylie's ill again.

Dominic..?? I loved that boy and was amazed he did not get through. Awww no...I hope Kylie is okay..what a horrid time she has had.

I thought only the 3 finalists recorded a version of the song? Didn't like it whoever was singing it. I liked Dominic as well. He never made it to the live shows

Yeah I think that was his name, I don't understand why he wasn't put through instead of Leon or Andy.
And in the groups, the black fellas, they were pretty good. They should have been put through. I didn't really like any of the groups on the live shows this year.
They recorded the single when Beverly was still in, so it was a while ago.
I liked Niki... she has a fantastic voice, and she's hot.
Yeah I heard she's got Breast Cancer again.

You are right Millie..only the three finalists recorded the song. Its awful anyway.
oh yes..that black group were really good.I was so annoyed when they did not get through.
Poor Kylie...I so hope she will be okay.

They recorded the song when there were quite a few of them left, including Beverly and Niki. Because they both said how sad it would be if no one got to hear it and see the video after they'd worked so hard on it. Then Beverly got the boot.
I hate Leon's version of it. Why we had to suffer it twice on the final, I do not know.
I wonder if any of these people will come back next year... surely Britain will run out of good singers eventually? Hopefully.
It may not even be true, my sister told me the other day. It might just be a rumour, let's hope it is. Although she didn't look all that well on the final.

I didnt know a few of them recorded the final song..thanks.
Wish we could have heard the same difference one.

I think they had to do it quite early on so that by the time the final came around it was all set to go, I presume. I don't. I'd like to have heard Niki's version.

I think Niks version would have bored me as much as the ones we heard.
Its not a good song.

Post by emo on Dec 19, 2007 4:29:07 GMT -5
Yeah, I guess so. I agree, the song isn't that great. They could have chosen a better one tbh.

I am not keeping up with what is happening....will Leon make number one.?

Post by emo on Dec 20, 2007 6:58:52 GMT -5
I'm purposely not keeping up with Leon to be honest. But no doubt he will get number one, they always do.
But I can tell you that Rhydian has also said the voting could have been a fix and that the judges are useless.
Simon is in a battle over Rhydian with Andrew Lloyd Webber. Hoping Simon doesn't win as Rhydian wants to do West End and I think he'll be amazing at it.
And Niki has plenty of gigs lined up.
That is all I know.

I did hear there is a bit of a hoohah over the voting.
Its the same most years anyway but this year I tend to agree.
Rhyd should have won.
The west end sounds about right for Rhyd.Its the field that he will do well in.
Good for Nikki but I doubt she will last that long.

Apparently a group of people of about 13 tried voting for Rhydian a total of 55 times, and got through just once. All they could hear was the engaged tone. So they tried to vote for Leon and got through straight away. Well I was watching TV last night as ya do and saw an announcement on ITV that phone lines for various programmes had been screwed up basically and they were offering people their money back from the votes. X Factor may have been one of them, I don't know. West End is what he wants to do and I think it's best for him. I think Niki will do ok... a lot of the time it's the 'losers' that do better than the winner.

They always say the same with the voting on all the reality shows like that. They say if its engaged it means lots of votes.mmm.lol. American Idol will be the same when that starts.

It does seem strange though, Leon was the 'surprise winner' after all. I don't care, he won't be around for long, just another one hit X factor wonder. Like the rest. Apart from Leona Lewis, she's quite good. I just like watching the very first auditions on American Idol. Although one winner, called Daughtry now, is very good, I have a few of his songs.

I see Leon made it to number one. Oh do you mean Chris from American Idol...the bald rock singer.? He is brilliant...I wanted him to win.

Unfortunately. Yeah that's the one, couldn't remember his first name. He's really good. I never watched the actual programme but his music is awesome.

I hope Leon is sensible and puts any money he makes to good use as it wont last. Chris is great.

Your right Cam, it definately won't. I hope he doesn't last... he's rubbish.

Not kept up with any of them since the show finished.

Nope me neither. I hope he gets to do Westend though. That Phantom performance was awesome.
