His single, 'Ambitions' is currently at Number 8 on the iTunes UK chart.
Even Leon Jackson's debut, 'Don't Call This Love', managed Number 3. This could be embarassing...

He's at #4 in the midweeks so it looks likely
It just goes to show that contrary to popular belief, performing on X Factor doesn't guarantee a #1 irrespective of whether you won the show |

Overall number 3 isn't actually bad.
He has a great voice unfortunately these producers gave him a not so great song. Some producers need to realize that pop music is no longer what pop music was defined as, with things like steps etc. Pop is now a catchy tune you can dance and sing a long to, with dizzee rascal or tingy striger or however you say his name rapping on the side. Get with the programme people!! Poor JO. Even Leona's songs are beginning to be crap when she's beyond amazing

But his voice sounds so different and screamy. Better than most the boring sh*t he sang last year. Don't say Leona is amazing, you'll have MeMyselfandJack at your front door in a second with Leona tickets.

The song is not bad but if they're going to drop someone because they're not getting number ones they better get with the programme!

I dont get this obsession with how records always have to be a number one for goodness sake,
In decades gone by if you read the guiness book of hit singles and albums, in the 50s,60s,70s,80s and 90s,many of the longest and biggest hitmakers,had records near the top of the charts and others low and in some cases very low. We have a top 75 in the UK, if a record makes the top 75,even for just 1 week, it is deemed a hit record so if someone can score repeatedly top 5s or top 10s then they should be thought of as doing really well. Every act cannot always get a number one record. A top 5 or top 10 is deemed a failure, rediculous. Also it may be as Jedward fever says, he may be someone who will shift albums more than singles. Too early to right him off. Last edited by joeysteele; 13-10-2010 at 06:38 PM. |

I think the song itself is actually very good - HOWEVER, it's also a song that was only ****ing released last year! It's shameful. And he's done nothing new or interesting with it...the original is far better: doesn't sound as whiny, and...is an original work of art.

Also don't oversell Olly. He's had one successful single, if the next one bombs he's screwed. |

Yeah you pretty much need to have 2 number 1's to be considered as successful.

yeah, considering it'll probably be the lead in single for his album it needs to be a hit and considering how terrible the song is it's not gonna do as well as the last song. The only thing he has potentially working in his favour is an X Factor performance.

There is no doubt Joe is a good singer but in my eyes I don't see him as a recording artist. It seems to be mostly the women who do well after the X Factor. I don't hear Joes song and think wow I must go out and buy that.

WHAT THE ****?!
Hes currently on course for a top 5 single. How does that make it a flop? For instance say i released a single now and it went top 5 would you all be like "sorry your single only got to number 3 dan" no you wouldnt. Just coz a song doesnt go number 1 doesnt mean its a flop. This is whats wrong with record companies today. Stop being so cynical |

I'm saying that, for an X Factor winner, and all of the accompanying free promo and fame that's come with that, he's set to be the biggest failure. Whether or not I agree with that is irrelevant. If YOU released a single and it got to No.3 it would be an amazing achievement, given your glaring lack of country-wide fame, record deal, promotions and television time.

It's a flop in terms of the current chart, if you dont get top spot from Xfactor then you're basically screwed.
