  • I welled up at that Scouse bloke who was so nervous he was shaking.

    I don't when I became so pathetic, but I'm slowly learning to accept it.

    • he was great

      i know it s a horrible, manipulative piece of television, but moments like that make me forgive it of all its flaws.
      it'll probs totally change that blokes life.

      • Pretty much.

        But he was really, really, really nervous.

        And if he makes a few bob (disputable), good look to him.

      • that's a very cynical attitude

        • well pigfoot

          in this case i disagree. He seemed like an incredibly nervous man, with a near crippling lack of belief in himself, and i think that the experience will be good for him. Not saying he'll end up selling billions of records, but if he ended up doing some session backing vocals or something instead oh his shit phone monkey job then i think that's a good thing.

        • That girl who did the Kate Nash style jokey guitar song,

          what was that about though? She's talented yeah, but she's never going to be able to do the karaoke style stuff the X Factor entails. And yet, when her song went up the charts, she had to remove it to stop Little Mix being damaged. Because Cowell already owns her. As soon as you rock up at the auditions, you sign away your right to pretty much any future musical career. That's the shit that gets me.

          But when a lovely bloke with a lovely voice overcomes his nerves and astonishes the audience, I'm a big blubbering mess.
