The X Factor

Anybody watch this show? I think this show is another AI but the show was more dramatic and less funny auditions than AI, but some contestants are just mediocre at best in my opinion, and they let go some good singers. I also heard some contestants here are AI rejects. The only singer that really stand out is this guy, Leroy Bell. I can't believe this guy is 60 years old :shock: , he has really a soulful voice and sometimes I can hear some voice similarity from Michael Bolton.

I agree, they kept some mediocre ones and let some good ones go in the last round. I think Josh has a good voice too.

That show took a little from each of AI and The Voice (with the mentoring/teams, etc.) Personally, I prefer The Voice moreso. I will definitely watch the next season of that.

I agree, Josh, the burrito maker. Yeah another soulful singer and husky voice just like Joe Cocker :shock:

I've been watching too, and Josh is FANTASTIC! The mistake that Simon made was letting Jazzlyn and Tora go home.....it should have been Drew, Tora, Jazzlyn and Melanie in the girls category. And why in the hell is Stacy going forward??? Her voice is so irritating to me!
