chickencam Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Janet disappointed me tonight, as did Mischa. I was glad to see Amelia Lily get another chance, she gave a great performance, with a bit of coaching she will be great. I think either Kitty or Little Mix will go. I haven't seen Kitty's dad with his board but a friend of mine has, they are all over the local press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Mischa will have to up her game now that Amelia Lily is back. I don't get Janet at all, never have. I thought Kitty's performance was her weakest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucky Mama Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I think that the media has done a hatchet job on MIscha and Kitty so don't think either will win. I am now bored with Kitty and Janet. I can't warm to Janet as a person and find her one dimensional. I think Amelia will be in for a while and still like Marcus.

counturchickens Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 I agree with chucky mama, never liked Janet that much. Marcus is now my favourite! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Cor Marcus - loved, loved loved it! I was absolutely blown away by Amelia Lily's performance. Amazing! Ooo get me, I sound like a judge! She is brilliant isn't she? Janet - boring, Craig - like him but predictable, Mischa B - too cocky now & didn't like last night, Little Mix - get rid, Kitty - loved her look but song off key. Marcus to win - or even Amelia!

Tweety Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Although I love Marcus, Mischa B is in a league of her own and I thought she was amazing last night. She may not be a very sympathetic character, but she can really sing and is the only one I would pay to listen to. She won't win though, too much bad press.

chickencam Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Blimey X Factor really has lost popularity, I had to trawl to page 4 to find this thread What a topsy turvey week, I liked some first songs and hated the second ones and others visa versa. I think that I would vote for Amelia Lily this week though, her first song was spellbinding, her second was pretty awful but even kelly Clarkson sometimes has trouble singing her own songs, they are not easy. I am not sure if Janet was being tactical, nervous or just plain poor for her first performance, I didn't really buy the sickness thing. She was much better second time around, but I think she should go she is 4/7 favourite to go with Ladbrokes. Little Mix were great with Beautiful but not so good with their first.

Janepie33 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I really like Little Mix and it would be good for a girl band to win for once. Really like Amelia Lilly. I think that I really like the performers who sing songs I like more for the song than the performer!

Egluntyne Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Janet was absolutely dire. There is no excuse for forgetting her words a second time. Loving Amelia Lily. I'm not sure that the stylist did Misha B any favours, but her performance was strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Janet was awful but she's been favourite to win nearly every week. A friend of mine said last night that if she survives this weekend after that performance then she's nailed on to win. She doesn't deserve it though, goodness knows who is voting for her! I didn't rate Marcus last night, his Stevie Wonder wasn't as great as the judges said it was. Misha should not wear leggings! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsquid Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Gosh, I'm alone here in thinking Janet is incredible. I think they don't want her to win and are giving her terrible songs. Under the Bridge she chose for herself and was incredible. She has an amazing and unique voice and I'd buy her album like a shot. But Gary doesnt want her to win so is making sure she gets inappropriate songs week after week Marcus is a karaoke singer. He'd be great as a holiday camp entertainer but not a star. If he wins he will disappear without trace like Shane Ward did. He sang off key yesterday. The rest can at least sing in tune. A year down the line, I think the only two of the finalists with successful albums will be Janet and Little Mix. Maybe Misha B if she raps a bit more and goes for the urban soul market. I think they have already decided Marcus will win and are doing all they can to rig the vote in his favour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Cor, this series is so bad I just have to watch it!! Janet was awful, she should go based on her first performance. "Ooops, word censored!"ody should tackle a Stevie Wonder song unless they are amazing, which Marcus is not. Amelia was fab on her first song, really good song choice. She has the best voice. I have never warmed to Misha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I still love Marcus - thought the rest were awful. Janet must go after that surely? I'm not keen on Amelia Lily & Mischa B - I've had enough of her now. Still hope Marcus wins it. Little Mix really are little aren't they.

Egluntyne Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Well, that was the right result tonight ... and Kelly's little gesture just sped the process up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I wish they'd give the judges three seconds to say a name. I'm fed up with "I'm basing my decision on last nights performance blah blah blah". It's not as if they're going to have to base it on anything else is it? "I'm basing my decision on the fact so-and-so hates Jaffa cakes and therefore doesn't deserve to win the competition" is a bit more exciting but unlikely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 What an awful charity single... they have edited all their voices so they sound ridiculously high and samey, if they edit the winners songs like that then it doesnt matter who wins!

Janepie33 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Missed it tonight but just watched the results bits on You Tube. I thought the person voted off sounded amazing in their survival song. Shame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I think that Janet was ready to go, they were trying to mould her into something she didn't want to be. She is a feisty young woman who knows her own mind and very much has her own style. If she has been allowed to sing like she did in her survival song she would have gone far. I think she will make it as a lovely modern Irish folk singer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docsquid Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Agree with you there. I think she was actually happy to go. I will buy her album, she has an incredible voice. However X Factor don't want somebody with their own ideas or personality, they want somebody who will do as they are told, and sing what they are told, how they are told to do it. That is why almost all the previous winners have sunk without trace (except for Leona, but she is exceptional), and why the runners up and other contestants actually fare better.

chelsea Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I see Misha is moaning in the press that the "bullying" is affecting her popularity. I really cannot warm to her and cannot see the point of bringing up this now - think it will make people dislike her even more. She has a good voice though.

percy049 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 When they edit people's voices who have come from X Factor, they actually sound worse I think For example, Jedward's live version of Lipstick on Eurovision sounds much better than the edited one (well, in my opinion anyway).

docsquid Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Dear me, why is Marcus still in the competition. He can't even sing in tune! A bad karaoke singer. It is quite obvious who should go home tonight. But I think they have decided he will win for some odd reason. If he wins he will sink without trace.

chickencam Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Amelia was the star tonight, she can sing both softly and powerfully. I think that she will win and Little Mix will be runners up. Mischa out tomorrow I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
