Default Had they not gone first, would Bad Lashes have gone further?

I was looking back at performances and reminded myself of Bad Lashes cover of wonderwall, which if I remember quite rightly picked them up quite a few fans.



Had Girlband have gone over Bad Lashes, how far would Bad Lashes have got?

They probably would have went in about week 4

The problem with the girl bands this year is that they never normally get votes, and Louis put through 2 girl bands with 4 members. A lot of viewers won't know which band is which and who is in which band, so a vote will have been split.

Louis should have put through 4Instinct over Girlband and we would have had a more interesting year for the groups.

They could have gotten so much further, last group standing wouldn't be too ambitious.
Louis should have given them I Kissed A Girl the first week, they'd have been one of the favourites.

I think that they'd of been in at the least 2 more weeks, I think the fact Louie mentored them and gave them a song that didn't suit them at all basically made them go down. They needed a much more edgier song.

I liked them, but girls watching anv oting don't like Girlbands on X Factor, IMO, that's why the two Girlbands went with in two weeks.

Their voices just don`t seem to blend,and I thought parts were out of tune.Im only judging on that performance but I don`t think they were very good imo,also the blonde lead singers voice really grinds on me and I really don`t like her style either.I thought both girlbands were really bland and boring this year.

Due to the high standards of the girls (Diana, Laura, Ruth and Alex) I don't think they would have lasted long this year.

And besides, girl bands never seem to do well. There has never been one in the top 5, and the highest placing girl band were the Conway Sisters who came 6th (in 2005 - X factor series 2) after their mentor Simon sent them home instead of Chico!!!

Hope finished 5th last year !


The one with the long blonde hair (not the lead singer) always looked clueless as to what she was doing. The one with the dark hair barely appeared on screen in that performance, it might as well have been the lead and the one with the short hair. They would have gone the following week.
