Regarding contestants murdering Queen songs on the X Factor tonight?!

Jesus Christ please make it stop now! The talent on this series is rubbish enough without having to listen to the memory of Freddie being bastardised. Maybe it's just me, but I find that Queen songs are uncoverable anyway, no one else can do them justice.

Fuck you Simon Cowell!

This year the contestants are definitely the worst they've ever had on the show. They're all absolutely awful.

I've not watched for years, but had the 'pleasure' of watching last nights performances.

Watching something where the panel's feedback is so wildly at odds with the reality is an utterly bizarre experience. It's an 'Emperor's New Clothes' for the modern day - none of the panel are likely to stand up and admit it's all shite as that would kill the goose that lays their golden eggs (apologies for mixing my fairytales!)

I turned over the telly about an hour ago to hear a young woman murdering something, turned out to be I'll Be There.

That was terrible. Were they all that bad?

That 20 seconds of caterwauling made me really happy I couldn't get into it this year!

YABU for giving that shite viewing figures!
