Unfortunately though, sometimes the winner does indeed do well for themselves. It amazes me that Will Young is still around, in spite of the fact that he's never had an even half-decent single to date. When he murdered Light My Fire it was bad enough, but he just keeps going and going, firing out the blandest of the bland like some demonic Duracell Bunny. His current video is even more hilarious than that awful swimming thing from a while back, and the song itself is a mish-mash of other people's work - the hook being the most obvious (stolen from Buddy Holly's Not Fade Away).

Oh dear! Kaz will not be pleased.

I quit elike Will. I think LRN was an ace single. But yeah I agree that some of his releases haven't been great. He is the original though, like Kelly Clarkson...she's still doing great both here and the US and indeed all over the world.

Well it wasn't aimed at anyone from this forum at all. But I do feel genuinely annoyed whenever I see or hear anything to do with him. It doesn't matter if it's full-on pop or whatever, it can still be done well and be pleasing on the ear, even if it doesn't make you want to go out and buy it. I rank him the same as Westlife - it's bland, insipid and devoid of any passion or integrity.

Kelly Clarkson is in another league. Even if you didn't like her music personally, you'd still have to admit that she's extremely talented and has a fantastic voice.
