    I really liked the winner's single - James - Impossible, its a nice song. Its original I wouldn't see it as bland. Its simple and its nice. Its him really, its his song and he wrote it and its his own which is a good thing. He made it his own which is unique.

    You're joking aren't you, it's a cover version.

    Sorry I only spotted my mistake on it when I looked at it on spin south west facebook page.

    It seemed like it was his own song and have written it seemed very real and genuine.

    I didn't realise it was a cover version as I had never heard of the song before! :o

    It is a cover also

    Did James ever perform any of his own original songs on the live shows at all this season?

    James Arthur wants album out soon

    Only spotted it on spin south west facebook page and here a sec ago!! My bad! :o

    Didn't realise it was a cover until today and never heard of the song before!! :eek:

    I don't think he did not sure, was a while before I started watching x-factor wasn't until the live shows started so I don't know, he might have. Think he might have on youtube...?

    It probably won't come out for a few months anyway.

    Louis had his poorest series yet and the repetitive cliches are just getting annoying. He does what the producers want, he gets next to noting in wages comparing to others and he has that longevity about him meaning he's going nowhere.

    Were the judges wages released?

    More than min wage anyways :p

    I think Gary and Nicole get paid the most then Lulu and finally Tulisa

    Louis gets more than Tulisa?? :eek:

    I find that extremely doubtful, I can't remember where I read it but it said that in comparison to the rest he gets barely anything, and he's fine with that

    Also I thought she got a massive pay rise to come back this series? Funny enough this time last year everyone wanted her back :pac:

    Just heard that the contestants are coming together to try and get Chris off the tour. This is about to get interesting. I guess not everything you read in the tabloids is rubbish.

    Chris must have been some eejit! Kye wasnt a great singer but then again I'd prefer to listen to him than Chris.

    Anyone check out Christopher's twitter page? He's getting some doing over there.
    https://twitter.com/ChrisMaloney77


  • Registered Users Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    I know you shouldn't believe all that you read in the tabloids but I find it hard to NOT believe at least some of the stories about Chris and his bad attitude, there's no smoke without fire after all.

    However I still can't help feeling sorry for him that he's getting so much abuse :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    I wouldn't be surprised if they they tried to replace Chris with Kye for the tour! Would Ella or Jade not be a better choice?


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,461 ✭✭✭Kiwi_knock


    Ella is going on the tour anyway, District 3 as well are going. I say they might try to get Lucy, if she has not burned all the bridges already.

    For Chris' spot on the tour it is really a choice between Kye and Jade, and as much as I do not like Kye he is a better singer and performer than Jade so he deserves to go ahead of her.

    I wonder how much tickets they will sell for the tour, does not seem that great of a line-up. Probably have to depend on Union J and District 3 fans buying tickets.


  • Registered Users Posts: 85,374 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Kye is boring, would prefer Jade or MK1 take his spot on the tour


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    I hope they do replace Chris anyway even if it were Rylan!

    I suppose James could have picked a different song as a winner's song/single but sure he done well in all of his other songs really, I still like the winner's song.

    The contestant doesn't choose their own winners single.

    If anything all this anti-Chris stuff has got people talking about the tour anyway. Could not care less who goes/doesn't go it's about the only meaningful thing most of them do music-wise anyway post X-Factor

    Rylan is on it too, something like the top 7 make it


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭starlit


    Oh right I didn't know that thought it just be the top 3-5 or something. They probably pick someone else anyway instead of Chris.

    Oh really, I suppose based on the song he sang he probably didn't choose it so chosen for him that it suit x-factor. As he picked his other songs in the other shows.

    Yeah, it's usually the top 7 or 8 go on the tour. Lucy shouldn't make it as she pulled out. Whoever was out last of Kye and Jade should go instead of Chris if he's dropped.

    I went to the tour in Dublin when Matt Cardle was the winner, Aiden Grimshaw was on the bill unexpectedly in a nice surprise. He hadn't made the tour originally but between a Facebook campaign and the other contestants giving it the thumbs up he was asked to join. Maybe something similar might happen for Lucy Spraggan if people wanted it enough, although whether she would do it or not is another thing.

    Christopher's back on the tour:

    http://www.digitalspy.ie/tv/s103/the-x-factor/news/a445050/christopher-maloney-now-confirmed-for-x-factor-live-tour.html

    I'm betting there were certain contractual obligations they just couldn't get out of.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,102 ✭✭✭DylanII


    Just heard James's song. . . It's us absolute rubbish, it sounds like he has a speech issue and has braces and is purposley mumbling

    Exactly what I was thinking. He could probably have gone legal or whatever! It's clear none of them want him there but he probably won't take no for an answer!

    He's a run of the mill singer. Not sure what all the hype was about the guy. Best of an extremely average lot.

    Ok, Ella sure could sing!
