I mean, if every year someone like Shayne Ward won then it would be boring. Despite what other people think, I think Rhydian has a market and could do really well.

I don't think people are understanding what I, and I think Red, are getting at. We can plainly see he is the best in the competition. He is a fantastic singer. But he is not a pop singer. The X Factor is a competition aimed at pop music.
The winner should conform because that's what the public want. If the winner goes off and decides to start recording screamo music, the public aren't going to buy it. It's an extreme example, but I think it illustrates what I mean the best. He certainly has a market, but it's not in the pop industry.

He's hardly conformed on the show to being pop and the public have voted him through to the final.

?!?! I know this, that's my point! He is not singing pop music. He is not a pop singer. Yet he is set to win a contest aimed at pop music. Do you see the gaping flaw in this?

But if that's what the public like,which they clearly do, then why deny him the chance at winning the show? He's got a support base who will no doubt go out and buy his album regardless of it not being pop.What is the problem then?
