Amelia, Little Mix & Marcus

[Doogle]

James > Little Mix >>>>>> Amelia > Jahmene > Chris >>> Marcus

Not sure actually...

Maybe 2011 because I found it fun to watch and there was excitement and stuff but based on the final 3 themselves maybe 2012 because James

[Jordan.]

Little Mix > Amelia > Christopher > James > Jahmene > Marcus

2011 overall for me

[MeMyselfAndI]

Amelia > Little Mix > James > Jahmene > Christopher > Marcus
So overall 2011

[Locke.]

This years, Maloney is better than last years final 3 put together

[Lewis.]

2011 because of Little Mix and Amelia - my favourite 2 from that year. Love James this year though and really hope he goes on to win!

[bbfan1991]

2011 it was more unpredictable, although now if you criticise Little Mix now they will probably cry wolf and accuse you of bullying them;).

[Apple202]

Little Mix >> Amelia >>> James >>>>>>>>> Marcus > Jahmene > Chris (though I want Chris to win this year)

2011 wins hands down

[Mystic Mock]

Last year as Amelia was great and Marcus done a good version of Cannonball, this year has Jahmene in it so it does knock the points off this final quite alot for me.

[Marcus.]

2012

[Brother Leon]

This year is better imo. James is better than the lot of them. Jahmene will make music I actually like and Chris has offered us more to talk about than most. Never understood the hate for it when last year and even the year before had fairly meh people near the end too.

[Maia]

Last year had Little Mix and Marcus but then I like everyone in this year's final so I dunno...Little Mix alone though would put it ahead for me

[Josiah.]

For me, 2011's Final 3 was awesome.

[Jamie585]

Amelia > Little mix > Jahmene > James > Marcus > Christopher

[King Gizzard]

This year by absolute MILES

James and Jahmene are actually going to have credible long careers unlike the 3 last year

[Black Dagger]

I stan'd Marcus at the time and loved Amelia and Little Mix as well, probs my favourite final.

[Me. I Am Salman]

definitely 2012, the 2011 final was awful because of Marcus Collins :bored:

I like that song, I wished that had been the lead single.

[MeMyselfAndI]

I like that song, I wished that had been the lead single.

It's best to have the best song out just before the album comes out, to help promote it :hugesmile:
When is her album actually out?

[Mystic Mock]

When is her album actually out?

I've heard nothing about the album release date, the label have not done a very good job at promoting her album.

[MeMyselfAndI]

I think its out after 3 singles? So maybe April?

[MeMyselfAndI]

I don't like the 3 single strategy, 2 singles before album is best imo

[Mystic Mock]

I don't like the 3 single strategy, 2 singles before album is best imo

I agree.

[Munchkins]

2 singles before album
3rd single on week of album release
4th single...
5th single from deluxe edition
end album
kty

2011 FINAL BTW<3

[Me. I Am Salman]

LM & Marcus were too cheesy for my liking

[Marc]

2011 only because of Christopher this year.

Littlemix and James final 2 would have been good.

[Mystic Mock]

Little Mix was the massive let down for me last year, like Jahmene they could only get votes off sob stories.

[Apple202]

Little Mix was the massive let down for me last year, like Jahmene they could only get votes off sob stories.

Are you really suggesting that the only reason for their win was a sob story in week 4 :suspect:

[Munchkins]

Says the one who loved Amelia "OMG I GOT VOTED OFF IN WEEK 1 S SO VOTE ME EVENTHOUGH I MISSED 5 WEEKS OF COMPETITION ITS STILL FAIR OK"

[Mystic Mock]

The judges made a bigger deal out of that more than anything, Little Mix every week cried about how they are ugly and that they just want to be understood.

And Amelia would have won last year if she hadn't have missed half the series.

They had a sob story in week 4, and sang Beautiful (in the death slot mind) in week 8.... that's it....

[Mystic Mock]

Are you really suggesting that the only reason for their win was a sob story in week 4 :suspect:

Yes and they did use it every week after that, even crying in performances aswell just to get sympathy off the public.

[Apple202]

They used it once more... when they sung Beautiful in the death slot in week 8...

[Mystic Mock]

Admittedly they was not as bad as Jahmene for it this year, but they was still pretty bad for it, and in week 4 I don't think they needed to do it as the performance was good enough to get them through anyway.

:joker: Bloody hated how she was given a free ticket back into the competition was never a fan of her either

(no offence here Mock)

[Brother Leon]

LM's sob story was annoying, but tbf it wasn't much more annoying than others. I think it was more of the "First Group To Win" "Innocent Girls" thing which helped them win. Fair Do's not many other worthy winners that year anyway.

[Mystic Mock]

:joker: Bloody hated how she was given a free ticket back into the competition was never a fan of her either

(no offence here Mock)

Fair enough I just think that she was robbed in the first place as she wasn't voted out by the public.

And out of the ones left in the final she should've won imo.

[Jordan.]

What was Little Mixs sob story other than Jesy getting called a sloth one week? :suspect:

[Mystic Mock]

Jesy bleeding it dry every week afterwards.

[Apple202]

Only one performance where she cries after the week 4 vt... really bleeding it dry...

[MeMyselfAndI]

I like Little Mix, but Tulisa constantly branding them as girls who wouldn't steal your boyfriends, and 'never has a group won XF, let alone a girl group!!!!!', was oversaid.

[Mystic Mock]

I also remember Little Mix and Tulisa always claiming that they won't steal other girls boyfriends while wearing sexy outfits and only one of the girls actually looking rough.

And then don't forget the most famous sob story in the last couple of X Factor's, Misha B is bullying us, Tulisa afterall did say she was told off one of her acts about this apparent bullying.

Top bit: Did you *see* what they wore in the early weeks? the last word that would come to mind would be sexy, and I don't even know why what they wore has to do with anything :suspect:

Bottom bit: When did they ever say Misha B is bullying us? Every time they've been asked about it they've denied it, and Tulisa never used the word bully, that was Louis..

[Munchkins]

Agreed Mollie.. so annoying she got to bypass weeks

[Mystic Mock]

She would have got through them anyway.

Well they wasn't as ugly as they was made out to be.

[MeMyselfAndI]

Amelia > all of you

[Munchkins]

Amelia > all of you

Even me :p?

[MTVN]

2012 because Christopher

[Mystic Mock]

Even me :p?

It's tight.:hugesmile:

[jet]

Best to worst of 2011/2012: Jahmene/James/Amelia/Little Mix/Marcus/Christopher.
Marcus shouldn't have been in the top 3 and Maloney should have gone out before Ella, Kye, Melanie, Jade and Union J.
