X Factor so far

I have got to do another post on this weeks X Factor and the series so far!!

This week we had some really bad auditions and i felt so sorry the most for "The Stunners" you could even see it in thier supporters eyes that they realised they were bad, unfortunately this is "entertainment" as they call it hence why they got through in the first place. But can i say...is this fair??!! i mean its one thing having auditions throughout the land to get real talent...i am all for that but really is it neccessary to drag thorugh the downright cruddy to show to the world what rubbish singers we have in this country...i would like to say as a massive fan of the X Factor i would much prefer to watch talented people every week showing that they can sing and give a great performace. Why do they have to have most of them going through to this round absolutely terrible? it makes no sense to me.

A few years back i auditioned for the X Factor, I cant remember what year it was but i would say about 4 years ago. Anyway i was pants...theres no doubt about it i was atrocious but only because i was so terrified i froze totally forgot the words and was downright bad. It didnt help that i was among the last few of the day by this time it was 8 o'clock and i had been waiting since 1 to be seen...what was the point in applying and being given a time of 1 when they dont see anyone until i would say roughly 3 o'clock. Anyway by that time i had gone through in my head my audition millions of times and worked out the best song for me would be "Your House" by Alanis Morrisette. Great song and as it was accapella i thought fantastic as it would be just that anyway! This seemed to be the best option for me...errr no, i had over rehearsed in my head i think and just plain forgoten the words. Needless to say i didn't get through even the first round, basically i wasn't good or bad enough, the only thing you seem to need is confidence. I heard and saw so many people walk away with "sorry maybe next year" the only 1 i saw get through was a crazy women who didnt even know what show she was auditioning for....and yes i saw this woman on X Factor and she was...yes you guessed it RUBBISH so this poor lady thought...yeah im a good singer im through to the next round....did she know that she was to be ridiculed in front of the almighty judges...i doubt it.

So what did everyone think of Danyl??? i think he was absolutely fantastic and definately gonna make it all the way...there is no doubt in my mind he will be in the final 3 even at this early stage....i may even bet on it! So what was so appealing?? well personally I would say his personality, he seemed like a genuinily nice guy...and a teacher which is good...people always see teachers especially Primary teachers as "good" people and i would agree i think you have to be to do that proffession at all actually. Next his stage presents was amazing it was either that he had done it before or he was just born to be on the stage, and he just seemed to own it totally! There was only one concern i felt was it seemed a bit staged, if you know what i mean?? has anyone heard the rumour the Leona Lewis was basically staged to be there, she was uncovered and told to go to the audition...basically they knew she was a star way before she entered onto that big X on the floor!

Moving on to this week, Jamie Archer the man with the BIG hair...i love him probably more that Danyl maybe because he is not getting as much publicity but i felt his voice was just phenominal...i prefered his taste in music also and stage presence was again fantastic! He definately seemed more confident though and possibly a little cocky...but i think you need to be to do well anyway! I give him a massive thumbs up and hope he goes allllll the way to the final!!! although ive already predicted Danyl will do well this one i think will do well too...although maybe he is not as "mainstream" so may struggle to get voters!!

Well I have enjoyed talking X Factor if anyone has any comments or views i would love to hear them!!!
