Most people bought it because they find Matt 'sexy'. A million other men could have sung the same boring fucking cover that he did. People bought it because of the sex appeal and the fact that it's the X-Factor number one. It's become a national holiday pastime for goodness sake. The song itself is entirely unspectacular and humdrum. It just caught on through the relentless promotion and all the mentioned circumstances to the point where a tune you would under any other circumstances would never have considered became catchy to ones brain.

Listen to any piece of dirt for long enough and it will catch on.

It amazes me that people are entirely apathetic to how boring it has all become. Look at darling Matt's customary winners video. Boring shots of him against some abstract studio backround mixed in with slow motion black and white shots of him on the X-Factor or something like that. Same as every other bloody winners song. Where is the leg room for new creativity? Does it not bother you in the slightest?

He is a relentless bore who will be replaced by another relentless bore in twelve months time. Look at who he inheritid the crown from for fuck sake.
