The X Factor (Pre-Live Shows)

[LostVoodoo]

I don't usually like Boot camp, but I was jsut blwon away, they're all amazing!!
I liek Rachel too... but I agree with Simon about the song, I think they'll find it difficulkt to find the right songs for her, but wither way she'll pull it off and more

at the end of the day being the x factor winner should be more than just singing other peoples songs, he says he wants some original - she is. if she wrote/performed songs for her albumn they would be original, fresh, exciting. i don't think it's fair she's penalised becuase she doesn't conform to what's already been.

i mean imagine a talent like amy winehouse on the x factor, it would be hard to reign her talent in with singing other people's songs, it would only limit her talents and create mediocre performances

but that's all she is, a good Amy Winehouse imitator! I'm not saying she hasn't got talent, but her voice is so close to Amy's it sounds like she's deliberately trying to sound like her. but hey, it worked for Leon with his Michael Buble impression every week...

Oh yeah definately, IO'm not knocking her talent.. she's amazing!
But they do have to sing other people's songs and I think that's what's always going to throw her back every week in the competition, I don't think it will be "you don't have a good voice" I thnik it will be more "You were given the complete wrong song to sing"... which is wrong jsut as you've said above.. I typed all that out and then re-read the Amy Winhouse bit and basically that's what I tried saying then lol.. jsut not very well.

One of Amy Winehouse's biggest hits was a cover though. Valerie.

I think they did really well last night. And they kept singing Celine's First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (: well not originally hers but i absolutely love that song (:

[Bryan]

I think this could be the best series yet!

If Rachel gets through to the finals, (which she will) then I can't wait to hear blast out one of the tunes on the Bond night!

[Bad Wolf]

why do they all sing the same three songs?

why do they all sing the same three songs?

suppose the judges gave them a set list, songs that can seperate the wheat from the chaff

[DaVeyWaVey]

I am really liking the groups this year, especially that boy group forgot their name.. J.. something but they were really good and I like 'Girlband' and the ones Louis said were like hairdressers.. I hope those 3 bands get through as I like them.

The girls category is extremely strong this year but I think Rachel needs to work on her attitude. She's a very talented singer, but her attitude could pull her down I think.

For the boys, Austin really sticks out for me.

Rachel is a good singer, but appears to be quite a horrible person. If this competition is on talent alone then she may go far, but really the likability factor is important. I wouldn't vote for her.

[Abbie]

I was wondering why they kept singing the same songs, cos now and then youd here a different song, but it pretty much was the same songs
