I had the unfortunate experiance to switch on to this show yesterday evening, for the very first (and last) time; I am absolutely amazed to see that 201 postings have been made on this drivel. Many years ago there was a programme called "Opportunity Knocks" and from what I can see the X factor follows a similar format of allowing the public to vote on various acts. With Opportunity Knocks, however, most of the contestants did have some degree of talent; many played a musical instument. In not one instance last night did I see anyone with guitar, piano or even spoons - every turn was no more than a glorified Karioke sing along, by people with the vocal range of a cat under torture. Now I find that one of these characters maybe from Accy. Please, let this not be true..let us maintain some standards for our town.
Is she a singer...? i never knew.... ohh sorry i thought you meant accy Webs , Accy Lass...LOL......

How rude
So Accy lass is'nt Dianne Whatserface???Thought they were one & the same as she has'nt posted for ages.Thought she'd ran off to join Cowells hareem of diminishing talent
Oh sorry,see she has posted.Does that mean she wont be warbling next week?
Tho have to disprove the 'uniqueness' of Diana's voice, just proved the theory to my daughter ....... listen to the Cranberries & imagine Diana singing it mmmm sound very samey to me
The Cranberries haven't been in the charts for years. Diana is unique at the moment. There is no-one else currently sounding like her.
Everyone could be compared to someone if you go back.
No-one begrudged Leona Lewis when she was compared to Whitney Houston.
I agree, though my friend's in Gran Canaria didn't like her at all this week...still, they are now soooooooooo out of touch with anything remotely current, it's sad.
I'd give anything to hear her sing the Ballad of Lucy Jordan by Marianne Faithfull, that would be sublime, heavenly.
My God! I can't believe you said that!
I said the same thing today and The Ballad of Lucy Jordan is not a common song. How strange that we both thought of that song!

Spooky.
We'll have to have a range of shoes called the Lucy Jordans.
Opportunity Knocks had the clap-o-meter.
It was probably having the clap that made old Teabag like that programme more.
Give me strength................
And your problem is, Lancastrian and proud. We don't get many good things from Accy, so lets shout about it on the rare occassion we do.
Its been announced that the winners song is going to be Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah. Diana sung this at boot camp, but, even though I want Diana to win, I think that all the contestants still in would be able to do their own take on it. I'd especially like to here a rock ballad version of it by Ruth (whos my 2nd favourite after Diana)

I'm now reading it may not be "Hallelujah" some sources are saying its going to be "Born To Try" originally done by Delta Goodrem, which would fit better with the X Factor winners song "mould" but Simon Cowell has been associated with "Hallelujah" a few times this year it was sung a number of times on American Idol, it was on the boot camp set list and its on Il Divo's album.
I'd prefer Hallelujah though, as I love the song.

Come on Alexandra........................I believe that Britney won`t be giving a masterclass this week so perhaps Alexandra might have time to give Britney one.....
No she isn't.
Though she will be giving a masterclass in how to shave a tuppence.
Loved Diana's second REM song, the first was dire. Hopefully she'll make it through to next week, and be able to sing songs more suited to her voice. A voice I've decided sounds like a young Cilla, in that it's very nasal, and comes from the back of her throat. That must be why I like her, as I love early Cilla.
Alexandra and Ruth were amazing too, but won't be getting my votes.
No she isn't.

That's what I don't like about Diana. To me she sounds like Cilla on Speed (crossed with Little Richard) and I thought Harry Hill had it just right, on TV Burps last week, when he said she did a Kenneth Williams impression. It's a shame because, underneath all the gimmicks, there is a good voice.
P.S. Laura's voted for Oggin again.
I wouldn't be surprised if he wins as all the little girls are in love with him.

Right, I'm off to vote again, to cancel Laura's Eggnog vote.
