I liked Ainslie. Not at first, because I thought he was abit contrived and playing 'odd'.

He also looks spookily like my rotter of an ex brother in law, which I appreciate is entirely not his fault!!!

However, he grew on me, and I think he has more originality and talent than the others.

I actually really liked Lemar, fantastic vocal talent, and just needs the right management and direction.

Loved Malachi as a person, but not a great fan of his vocal abilities. He has a pretty voice when in key, but doesn't seem to FEEL the music somehow. His 'Vincent' seemed to me to be accented in all the wrong places. I LOVE Don McLean's version (who would have thought the man with the ostrich would have so many talents!). It moves me to tears when I hear it, because he wrote it and feels passionately about the artist.

I can almost hear Malachi asking 'Vincent who?'

The lurve thang with Sinead left me strangely (with my track record!) unmoved, and I find it hard to forgive her for voting Ainslie out.

David - I like him and hope he will develop his songwriting skills and follow that direction. I don't think he is the winner the series creators envisaged though.

Good series though, I thought it combined all the best elements of Reality TV and was some compensation for the horror of BB3.

Back to Ainslie........

Hope he has a MASSIVE hit!
