Series 1

I thought Tabby gave the weakest performances overall throughout the competition and didn't deserve a place in the semi-final over someone as talented as Rowetta. I thought Cassie was good, but didn't do the big ballads much justice.

Series 2

Nicholas was flat and out-of-tune on all of his songs. In my opinion, he should've gone before Maria, Chenai, Philip and 4Tune. I just really disliked her and knew he was only getting by on voted from teenage girls. I never understood why Journey South were so hyped and found most of their performances to be either very boring or very safe - all very similar.

Series 3

Ben by a long way. I didn't like the tone of his voice whatsoever - it was always very shouty and I don't like rock music, so that's probably why. Ray should never have made the final. He was average throughout the competition and the only performance I liked was 'Smile'. Even Simon didn't want him originally! A lot of forums were going crazy over Ashley, who I thought was very arrogant and really flat when he sang.

Series 4

Leon has to be one of the most overrated acts ever on the show. He's like a copy of Ray Quinn (who was also rubbish). I just don't think he has the talent to still be in the competition. Although I like them a lot, Same Difference shouldn't be there either - they're average singers who've been managed very well by Simon.

Journey south-boring and shouted
Maria-I never liked her voice to me she always sounded out of tune and could never do a huge song like Brenda
Ben-SHOUTED
Leon-A bit better than ray at singing but cant dance to save his live which ray could so leon is a poor virsion of ray.
