I liked Aiden but I do feel that they tried to turn him into something he wasnt.

Had he have been able to come out on stage, not dressed in black, not moody and intense, not rigidly stood still and perform like he did in his 1st audition with Gold Digger (a more up tempo, contempory song suited to his young age) then I don't think he would have graced the bottom 2 this early

however, and as much as I like the girl, i feel dannii should take the blame for Aiden. He did Mad World on show 1, got glowing reviews for his performance (which was moody, intense and slightly eerie) and that trend seems to have run over the rest of the weeks. We never saw Aiden really move around the stage, we never heard him sing anything even slightly up tempo (even Thriller was slowed down), we never saw him look like he was actually enjoying his moment. To me he never looked like an 18 year old young man and I feel that his potential was never really released on the live shows

That being said, poor sing off song choice for him, he looked uncomfortable during the entire thing and made a realy mess of it but i do think he should have had a second shot and actually stood up for himself and said 'enough dannii, give me a young, hip cool song that i can enjoy' not some moody, dark character inducing song
