Lol, that's not quite what I was getting at.

The Beatles played a prominent role in music though. There will always be wannabes.

I get what you mean really Ryan57, I just had the perfect oppotunity to be sarcastic lol.

And my Mom making veiled digs at me again for preferring OneRepublic's version of the winner songs to Ben's, I don't think that she quite understands that I don't rate Ben very much and I like OneRepublic.

I sensed a touch of sarcasm.

[the truth]

the beatles wrote more hits than pretty much everyone ever....though id say a load of them were half finished songs. their place in the hall of fame is secure, one direction on the other hand are crap, ben hey who doesnt even belong with a microphone in his hand, hed get booed out of any pub

If Ben or Fleur got sent to the US they would be laughed off stage I feel.

but how do you know ?
your soo cynical Mocker even Ben might be liked in America for certain audience who knows
and i doubt Fleur would ever get laughed off stage !! she is a born performer and im pretty sure when she becomes big she will sell tickets like hot cakes

Tbh only SK would sell in America out of this years acts anyway as the teen girls would adore them, and James would be hugely praised for his vocals.

If they saw Ben and Fleur though I do feel that they would be laughed off, and they definitely think that something has gone wrong in the UK that we voted for someone with no stage presence, sings flat a lot of the time, and just poses through songs as the winner.

SK !!???? are you joking you seriously think they have a chance in america why just because young girls like them?
it will still fizzle out and people will get bored of them and be like stereo who ?

you cant assume Ben & Fleur would be shunned when there's no evidence to support that and im pretty sure they'd be a bigger success in america than SK will ever be

because SK will probably just release 1 single and then get dropped dissapearing from music entirely and they will resort to posting naked selfies online again for a desperate grasp at fame

SK have a market in the US that will always be available to them, Ben in particular will struggle because they've already got a lot of Rock singers that are a lot stronger than him vocally, and performance wise.

And with Fleur I think that she'll be big short term around Europe, but I personally don't see her breaking anywhere else, and once her martyr status of losing to Ben is gone she'll fade back into obscurity I feel as there's already Rihanna in her market that's just a lot better imo.

America already have 1Direction making a mark there
so why would they want another young boy band? especially one with 8 members that all look awkward on stage average vocals and 1 of them is underage and cant even live in the same house as them
so if they did go on tour i bet he'd be going to bed early and he cant even drink alcohol yet

One Direction will be ending soon, they all look like they can't stand each other to me.

nahh those cocky jumped up kids (1direction that is ) will be around for a while i think
i know nothing about their relationship i didn't see any vibes that they dislike eachother but then again who knows what's really going on

but i remember how immature they all acted when Johnathan Ross was interviewing them 1 of them even kept saying he needed the toilet like a 4 year old

Why didn't he wait until a commercial break? Or go before going on the show?
