Default Anyone special this year?
In terms of talent? i.e The guy who won it last year (forgot his name) and Leona Lewis, or do we have a bunch of 'decent singers' this year?

I thought the guy who won it last year was very average.

His performances towards the end of the show i remember were admittedly shaky, but he performed 2 or 3 songs on the live shows which i thought were just genius.

Fair enough if you don't agree

Yes you're right, Matt Cardle has nothing on the likes of The Saturdays or JLS.

Charts mean nothing.

Well the XF is about getting a singer who will be successful in the charts. Leona Lewis has done very well, so if Matt is as talented I'm sure he will do very well also.

The only one that stands out in terms of vocal talent is Amelia Lily.

Amelia looks to be the stand out so far according to the replies! Think she has a good voice, but not sure if she is 'special'. Granted it's early on and she's only 16, but with the likes of matt cardle and leona, when they sing, they have the talent to touch a nerve whereas with amelia it's just voice.

And she didn't make it on this show

Having said that, I agree she's like her and think they should duet.

I think a lot of the girls are very 'shouty' :/ But good. In the right place it can be anyway

Erm, only one I liked really is James. But TBH none stick out for me :/

No prob, and I think there were more talented acts than Matt in that XF.

I will wait and see what they do in the first show, I was amazed Louis didn't put through initially Sami, but I am glad she is in now since Goldie left.

I am fed up of the mucking about with the groups that Tulisa did, she will be down to 2 acts within 4 weeks likely due to the girl group and awful girl duo '2 Shoes' going out early on.

I think Kelly did good with the girls and likely has the winner this year.

Gary sent his best performers and singers home,I think that Frankie guy could have stood there just laughing not singing and Gary would have still picked him.He's made a mess of the boys category.
