Did anyone see Rhydian last night? His song brought tears to my eyes and I suspect to Simon's too You know what I wonder what they make of him in the US as he is most different and slightly strange in a nice way - very talented though - I will def buy his new album

Yes--I watched Rhydian on X-Factor--you are 'spot on' Jenny--it did bring tears to my eyes and Goose Pimples too!!--
A talented singer and I will buy his new album. He should have won last year.
I was so pleased to see Diane get through aswell.- and the right one got voted off last night--

It was a very good show the standard is high and I agree, it was the right decision to vote the boys through. Rhydian is very good and it was great to see him doing so well last night.

Rhydians CD is very emotive - quite sad really but he sings from the heart Am sorry Phantom of the Opera wasnt on it - however all his songs appear on YouTube I just cant wait for him to appear at the MEN Arena; I will be there like a shot You know what; I am a big big Fan of Rhydian ;D

Ruth was a powerful singer last night Shame she was voted off but am sure there is a career out there for her I do wish the girls would stop all this sobbing - I dont remember Leona Lewis doing any of it Puts me off But have to say the winner should have a distinctive voice that we will recognize instantly As soon as you hear Will Young you know it is HIM and same for Leona Lewis The same can be said for Diana Alexandra has a powerful voice but will not be recognizable I may vote for Diana if she promises to stop weeping and feeling sorry for herself

Oh more sobbing big time Dont like any of those in the Final The best singer was Rachel but she had an attitude that wasnt nice Diana has the most distinctive voice that you will instantly recognize Anyone voting next week

I was sorry to see Diana leaving last night but I think she'll get a recording contract from someone. I like her voice. Of the remaining contestants I'd like JLS to win but who knows what will happen.

I agree with you LNG--I would like to see JLS win--I like them-
Diana is too 'weepy' and I dont think she could stand the pressure of the Music World.
I was hoping to see the Babyface "Jack in the Box expression on his face" voted off--

Egg&ham (aka The Ewok) will win it. I read that he wins it easily every week because the audience who vote are predominently teenage girls.
I'm glad Diana left because, lets face it, she has a bloody awful voice. Truly horrible, with a hideously nasal top end warble.
How Laura is not in the final is beyond me. She was head & shoulders above everyone except Alexandra and should've won it.
FA x

Oh No F-A you could be right - not fair then the voting is it - am sure it isnt a man thing to pick up the 'phone and vote so down to the girls I didnt vote this year and wont vote in the final - I think JLS will be runner up I think this will be the only year I wont bother going to the MEN arena to see the live show, next year think in March

X-Factor is not really worth watching now--I agree with FA and Jenny--all the decent ones have been voted off - As FA says--"The audience who vote are predominently teenage girls"-and I wont be wasting any money on Voting either. Last year Rhydian came runner-up for a similar reason but he is doing much better than the winner-Leon Jackson!! Rhydian's concerts in Manchester/ Liverpool and Birmingham have been Sold Out-and that is in May 2009!!! Can you imagine Ewok having Sold Out concerts in 2009?- Did you watch Harry Hill the other night when he 'took off' Ewok? (FA--I like your description of Egg & Ham ) and the expression on his face when his name was mentioned? JLS should win--

Am going to miss it and he was on at the Bridgewater Hall too much better venue than the Manchester Even News Arena - they are selling tickets at £90 for those that are desperate F-A will be glad Owen voted out but I DO WISH Alexandra would get a grip JLS looked fantastic - they looked like Super Stars - whoever is dressing them has got it perfectly right Said I wouldnt watch it but I did

Me too Jenny I wansn't going to watch it but I did.
I was so pleased "Jack-in-the Box" was voted off--
It was a shame JLS was runners up but I think they will go far-- None of them with Sob Stories or crying to just to get the sympathy vote.
JLS looked like and sounded like super stars-Good Luck to them.
PS--Sorry you are going to miss Rhydian in Concert!

Have just watched the Final - missed it last night I thought the song was not suited for the vocal range of JLS but it certainly was for Alexandra I had goose bumps - have to say she was Awesome - but I wish she would STOP SOBBING I did think she was going to pass out at one stage Here she is
