Hes the most creative though, he reminds me of Will Young, not the best voice, but the most talented

Austin is nothing compared to the girls, he will get far, the teenage girls will see to that, but the girls are so much better. Alex, Rachel, laura, Diana all wrip the floor with him.

How can you say he's nothing?
You can't even compare males to females because their voices are so different.
However, Austin's voice is unique, and he's got a defined style unlike most contestants.
As bbE said, he's creative and really works with the songs he's given [his arrangements of End Of The Road &Valerie sounded great].

The only female contestant that you've named who does the same is Diana [not being biased].

Im really hoping Diana gets far!!

That's just my opinion, he is nothing specail, he does nothing for me. There are far better singers there then him, but like I said, that's my opinon.

Rachel should be there with Lauara and Alex. Austin is rubbish compared to her. But I suppose he will be getting the teeange girls votes, and gay votes because he is gay (it's obvs lol, not that it matters)

dupin 05-10-2008 06:29 PM

I don't think the odds mean much now, to be honest...last year, Rhydian, Same Difference & Niki were the bottom three in the odds...

Spike 05-10-2008 06:32 PM

Odds don't mean anything at this stage
They will only mean something in about 3 weeks time

I agree, I can see them making it furthest out of the groups.

Billy 06-10-2008 05:08 PM

They have the potential to be one of the best groups ever.
Also think Alex is being overestimated, I don't think she'll be at the final 6.

Wildcat! 06-10-2008 05:13 PM

Dont you guys think JLS is underetimated as well? I think they have the better chancce of winning among the groups! anyone agrees?

There my favourite group but these type of bands never do well, looks at 4Sure from last year (could have been the year before), they were very similar and were eliminated really early.

Billy 06-10-2008 05:16 PM

JLS are great vocally, and theyd do well in America but on XF these type of bands never do well. Unfortunately, I'd give them till week 3 at the most.

Wildcat! 06-10-2008 05:22 PM

Yep History says youre right! But I am rooting for the groups this year, if not JLS, the other 2:blush2:

They're absolutley fantastic, my favourites but groups don't win mainly due to lack of focus on one person or a sob story IMO.
