He won't win. Someone with a lovely little back story and minimal talent will win the love of the public, win and then vanish into nothingness.

Winning The Voice is the kiss of death. You're guaranteed to sink without trace.

I was going to come on and say it shouldn't be allowed, hes had his shot at the whole fame bit. But my god hes awesome. Teamkevin

SurferJet · 02/02/2016 18:05

F**K that was brilliant!

He's better than all the judges put together.

Who did he go with?

LynetteScavo · 02/02/2016 18:11

I don't think it makes much difference who wins...what do they actually win...have any The Voice winners ever had a hit in the charts?

LineyReborn · 02/02/2016 18:12

I can't remember who won it last year either.

GraciesMansion · 02/02/2016 18:14

He's fab, great voice. There's quite a few videos on YouTube of him covering other songs, he really can sing.

Narp · 02/02/2016 18:14

He has a great voice. It was moving.

I wish he, and some of the others, voice enunciate more clearly. Their diction is rubbish

I am enjoying the Voice this year. Mainly because of BG

WhatTimeIsItCuckoo · 02/02/2016 18:15

It was Ricky Wilson I wouldn't have recognised! I knew he'd lost a lot of weight but he now looks like he's just stepped out of a magazine - and what happened to his Leeds accent?? Yes Kevin was great though Smile

I recognised him strsight away as well. Bloody hell he was fantastic! Goosebumps all over. What a voice!

FarrowandBallAche · 02/02/2016 18:20

Paloma's voice?! Dear god it's pathetic.
Like a simpering 5 year old.

Narp · 02/02/2016 18:25

I quite like Paloma

Ricky Wilson is starting to creep me out a little bit. He flirts with the young ladies and his sincerity is starting to seem a bit faux

rosebiggs · 02/02/2016 18:26

Ricky is massively overshadowed by Boy George this year.

rosebiggs · 02/02/2016 18:29

Ricky seemed a bit pathetic when he claimed that Will was putting him off by encouraging him to turn for contestants. He should be able to decide regardless of what the the judges are doing.

IslaMann · 02/02/2016 18:33

He's amazing. Who knew he had that voice when he was in Liberty X?

FarrowandBallAche · 02/02/2016 18:35

Just been watching KS in YouTube.

Gorgeous voice and quite sexy too.

WhatTimeIsItCuckoo · 02/02/2016 18:43

Just preferred Ricky when he seemed like a good old Yorkshire lad having a bit of a laugh with The Kaiser Chiefs and not taking himself too seriously. Now he just seems a bit contrived....

carabos · 02/02/2016 19:41

He was very good and massively improved that song, but he won't win - he's too old.

surfer Paloma

'Kevin is not the best name for a pop star'

bit harsh usual, the male judges are called William James, George Alan and Charles Richard!

Bet their parents didn't think they'd become famous music stars Grin

He was great. And what a nice guy.

I'll be voting for him.

SurferJet · 02/02/2016 20:42

Thanks Snowfairy Smile

I'll be voting for him.
