Er,Matt cardle can't sing

[spikeycow]

Am I missing something? Is it just because of his throat? What's going on

[Groovymoves]

He's not been his best the last 2 weeks due to his sore throat but who cares? He's bloody yummy and I wouldn't say no

[GraceAwayInAManger]

Nooo, he can't! He's good at hitting high notes, though ...

I think Rebecca totally deserves to win. But I want Cher to win, coz she's slightly bonkers ... and I think One Direction will win.

See you after tomorrow's show!

[Rachy91]

think hes got tonsilitis
but watchin one direction now im worderin what their excuse is

but def GM, matt=yummyyy!!

[peggotty]

I think they are all suffering from nerves tonight.

[spikeycow]

I love Rebecca. What a voice. And seems genuinely nice

[spikeycow]

I feel a bit bad about the thread title now but I can't deal with elephants in rooms

[GraceAwayInAManger]

You mean the elephant of the missed notes?!

Oooh, but weren't Mad Cher & WillIAm good together?

[Rachy91]

haha dont feel bad! IMHO i think rebeccas a bit shouty when she tries to do the 'big' bits if ya get me and although she seems like a really lovely person i dont want her to win

but what DID cher have on!?
also i think chers duet was really good cus will.i.am was pretty rubbish an made her sound really good!

[BelligerentGhoul]

Cher was brilliant in that duet - can'tbelieve I'm saying that tbh!

Matt is just yummy - but he was crap in the duet.

Wand Erection are the biggest load of tosh going.

[Groovymoves]

Can't stand Cher, cocky little madam.

Rebecca can sing but is sooooo dull.

Wand Erection will prob win cos of the teenie voters.

Matt, well I've told DH I may leave him and run off into the sunset with him

[CybillLiberty]

I don't rate him at all. But I work with a relative of his so keep that under your hat

[spikeycow]

I like rap and hip hop but I don't think Cher raps that well TBH. Some bits she sounds like she's putting an American accent on. There are plenty of British rap artists she could emulate

[notnowbernard]

I think Cher has been brilliant tonight

For a just-17yr old she leaves me looking a bit ---> tbh. In a good way

[GraceAwayInAManger]

Wand Erection

[GraceAwayInAManger]

Can I vote for Aguilera???

[ShanahansRevenge]

I don't think Matt has ever recapturedthe magic he created when he sang "The first time ever I saw"...it's all been downhill from there.

Cher is in my opion brilliant. I don't like her when she talks much...she is cocky...but it's part of why she's as good as she is. You HAVE to be cocky to stand up there...all 5 foot nothing and 7 stone white girl that she is...and rap with that attitude.

Rebecca is NOT boring! How very dare you whoever said that! She has soul and is a lady with tonnes of charm and a voice to die for.

[SoNotWorthIt]

I vote Rihanna.

I have never rated Matt's voice. It's a bit Steve Brookstein for me.

[notnowbernard]

Wand Erection look like a Gap Kids commercial IMO

[Groovymoves]

Sorry she bores me.

She seems a lovely girl but the voice makes me want to sleep.

[LadyBlaBlah]

You are not wrong op

And Simon Cowell has unfeasibly small hands

[vmcd28]

I genuinely don't think any of them are much good, tbh.

[spaceman]

Do not get this Matt thing at all. He's not attractive and has a terrible singing voice. He is dull - almost as dull as Rebecca.

Cher is great - she has an edge and I love her. She reminds me of a modern day Janice Joplin for some reason. I really do think she's fab and what modern pop needs.

Let's hope she resists going down the Christina/Rhiana path though by undermining her integrity and putting out the filth.

[Rachy91]

i loved how cher stood up to dani last week! i dont really like her when she talks, i dont think its her cockyness i think its just cus shes a bit...wierd lol

rebecca is boring, talented and lovely yea but sooo boring

and wand erection (lol!) are so samey and like all the other boy bands but i think theyll win cus of all the teenage girls lol

whoever said that about matt 'hell make one rubbish album making james blunt look like prodigy' lol! so true

cant see any of them stickin around long term tbh :s

[lorelilee]

I like Matt when he's on form - but that's just it - he very rarely is these days! I also think that Christina blew Rebecca off the stage whilst I remember that Alexandra Burke held her own with Beyonce. I agree with Rachy - not a vintage year and they will all disappear quite quickly.

[marantha]

Absolutely right. He is at best a karaoke singer. Can't believe any negative comments about Rebecca, though, don't you people have ears? This girl is wonderful.
