But if there is any justice they will halt the contest now and give the winners prize to G4.

They are by far the best group, the quality of their singing is outstanding and they have what is compulsory with a group of male singers in the 21st century, they look good.

Are they the UK's answer to Rockapella?

Perhaps.

G4 are amazingly good. I also really really really like Tabby *swoon*

I was so shocked that Verity got through automatically instead of VWS. Its such a shame that Roberta didnt make it through

x

I was surprised that Voices With Soul were in the bottom two... they were excellent !...no accounting for tastes , I suppose.

i think people at home just thought 'oh i wont vote for them coz everyone else will'. the only problem is, everyone thought that! Im glad they got through!

Agreeing!

I dunno who this 'Tabby' is everyone goes on about.. But all I know is there's nothing better than G4.. So Tabby shouldn't win

tabby is the irish guy in sharons group- he has dark hair with pink/red chunks. Hes also very hot!

i was very surprised with the result aswell.
I thought that Verity shouldn't have gone through as i dont think she sang the song very well, perhaps if she was given a better song but all throughout the show from the start i never thought she should have gone through to the final 3. 3/10

Roberta i dont think performed her best tonight. i have seen her sing better like on the boot camp place but i also didnt think she should have been in the final 3. 5/10

Voices With Soul were good and lively although at times during the rounds it seemed as if they were just shouting and not singing. I did however think that they were good enough for the final 3 and they did sing with power. I didnt think it was fair that they should have been the last 2 last night as there were far worse than them. 7/10

Cassie i felt did wear some strange outfit tonight. at first i saw it and if it hadnt been for the hair i would have thought 'he' was off the some private boarding school the way she was dressed. I thought that she did sing the song well even though i had never heard of it before therefore not having anything to compare it to. i thought she did deserve to be in the final 3 and through into the final 8 acts. 7/10

Steve was okay he wasnt mind blowing or rubbish he was just average. 6/10

Roberta 7/10 she was good but i dont think that she could make it. she has a very accusitive personality, e.g. the presenter guy on Xtra on itv2 yesterday said 'be quiet' as a joke as he was trying to do an interview and she was very loud. today she went to him ' i heard you said i was rubbish'

Tabby was very good he was expanding in charisma as the song went on as he got better and better, but i noticed he didnt look at the camera or the audience much but that might just be his way of performing 8/10

G4 10/10 not much else to say. i want them to win so far.

2 to go seemed not on top form tonight i felt that they could have done better. i didnt really fell the song much it was quiet and mumbly. although it did get better as it went on, and in previous songs they have been really good. 6/10

overall the show was good but wats with sharon never facing simon

im glad roberta didnt get through..........but it really should of been verity going!

im loving the blind geezers voice.....WOW! and of course the sexy steve bless him!

G4!!!! NUFF RESPECT! xx

saint100:

Rubbish. Absolute rubbish. G4 are good singers, but they are not suited to this competition. They are in a different "league". and not in musical talent, I mean in their training, image, and voices. They would do better in musicals and theatre than on a pop show etc... If they won I doubt they would get the coverage and success as they do not appeal to a wide spectrum, whereas soulful voices such as Sexy Steve or Rowetta or the originality of Cassie (great name ) or Tabby would. and to be perfectly honest, if it wasn't for the blonde "lead" in G4, they wouldn't have gone through as he is the only one who has marginally got the looks, and has the strongest vocal.

On a lighter, more positive note...



STEVE TO WIN!!! HUBBA HUBBA HUBBA!!

STEVE TO WIN!!! HUBBA HUBBA HUBBA!!

YEAHHHHHHHHHHH! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

*ahem* cough-search button-cough

x-factor thread

Anyone that finds Steve attractive, I invite you to come to my local greasy spoon, where dozens like him exist swilling down tea and all day breakfasts. I won't deny he has that "rugged everyman" thing going on with the perma-5 o'clock shadow, but sexy? This needs explaining. Seriously and uncannily enough, the guy looks a lot like the dude that painted my kitchen... no joke.

Verity sounded like a drowning cat last night. The fact she got through falls to Simon's remark to Louis defending his accurate claim that housewifes aren't in the charts. I swear to God, she was missing notes like an absent minded bank robber. It was painful to listen to. I'm glad I didn't have surround sound on or I may have suffered an aneurysm.

Cassie looked like she should be leading me to my table and handing me a menu. Good voice, but whoever "styled" her clearly has a very weak grasp of the term. Her face and hair made her look like a china doll and her clothes made her look like a waitress.

Roberta screwed herself over by taking a fairly easy song and not having charisma to match her looks. Ah well, Kate Hudson and Jessica Simpson are already out there, so no worries.

Tabby's minor Jarvis Cocker-esque spasm was GOLD. Has the charisma, but not the talent. So chances are he'll go far. Query: how am I meant to believe he is playing when he only plays the opening chords, two mini solos and the closer, however the music continues anyway? Nice touch was the hypnoguitar. I'm guessing Sharon got Zakk Wylde to lend her his one.

Rowetta, crazy though she is, did a great job.

Voices with Soul impressed but I agree at times they seemed to be substituting vocal power for actual singing. Still, given a bit more coaching they'd be good.

Steve sounded like Lionel Richie lite. Hopefully next week he'll be better.

The White Stevie Wonder and his charismaless companion were alright, but she seemed very wooden out there performing? Nerves? Maybe. Lack of natural charisma? Yup. I think it's clear who is the real talent of the two.

G4 were awesome as usual. You could see they did have some trouble harmonising at times with the mics, but all round they did well.



I'm sorry, I guess Saint didn't realise you came up with the concept, rules and guidelines of the show to lay down such a decree. You might want to tell Messrs Walsh and Cowell and Mrs Osbourne to kick G4 out since obviously they aren't suitable. As for not appealing to a wide spectrum, they had more appeal than the good looking blonde with a ballad who had the most likeable of the judges backing her. But I guess that doesn't mean anything, since you know, the public don't have opinions aside from yours and they aren't suitable.

i agree with everything you just said although i think Cassie is very pretty and didn't look that tragic i also think that Rowetta was awful, sorry to all the Rowetta fans but i havn't ever thought that she can sing!!!!

Gemmy x

Cassie is a pretty girl but I think they gave her an awful look. Rowetta's voice can be on and off but last night I thought she was on. I think she has a Shirley Bassey voice and a Diana Ross's little sister look.

i get why peole like Rowetta but her voice doesn't really appeal to me personally, i sort of think she sounded a bit too manly!!!

You find the one part of my post that states I decided the concept of the programme, and that I am right and the rest of you are wrong...... I'm guessing you won't even bother to look as you know full well that such things did not crop up in my reply. I have every right to air my opinion, and blast other people's if I disagree. Likewise, you may do the same to mine if you so wish. But do not accuse me of saying or thinking things you presume I mean without sufficient evidence.

*SHAKES HEAD IN DISBELIEF*

And the fact you want Steve to win only shows you want that to happen because he looks good not because he sings well

I thought you knew me better than that Paul! The fact he has excellent stage presence and charisma, along with a very very sexy voice, totally quashes your assumption!

So, as I have said before....

STEVE TO WIN!!! HUBBA HUBBA HUBBA!!

lol I know what I like! G4 are just as capable of giving a contemporary music performance than any of the acts on display in the show. I didn't realise Steve was the guy who sang so well with a croaky voice, mind you.

As long as G4 keep improving and tightening their harmonies, they will win and accapella will come alive in the UK. Yay!

Paul - how can you not realise who Steve is? Isn't my "official steve obsessive" picture on my siggy not big enough?!

nah they were just so smart with that guitar thing - he didnt play it continously (spelling?), he just needed it to .. erm ... dammit i cant think of the right words . oooh he needed to get his voice in tune and he was used to doing it with a guitar so that's the reason they let him ... probably

cassandra_jane:

Learn what sarcasm is. Read my post again. My point was your arrogance in declaring G4 unsuitable goes against the judges choices and the public's also, who voted for them to stay in the contest.

Plus, the fact you transparently lust for Steve doesn't exactly make your case of "it's the talent he has that makes me want him to win" argument very solid. That's like me saying I want Christina Milian to win a Grammy because she's just so "talented".

Your signature is bigger than the board rules state is acceptable. So, it's more than big enough, actually.

2 things i just HAVE to point out

1) sarcasm doesnt really work on the net
2) no1 really sticks to the signature rules (mine's probably too big aswell )

I started this topic with the intention of stating my personal views and hopefully starting some healthy debate from different Forum members.

I didn't want a bloodbath!

some people just love angry debates .. me included sometimes

lol no matter wat we all say, it aint gonna change the outcome so dont get so angry!!!

I used that quote as it was pertinent to my second paragraph. I guess I should have put (THIS HERE [PARAGRAPH IS ABOUT THE QUOTE ABOUT CASSANDRA, SEE? lOOK ABOVE, THERE IT IS!), then you might have actually followed.

You are avoiding all my points and instead are getting frustrated. I assume this is because you have no reply of substance to offer.

And as for issues, I thought this thread was to discuss the X-Factor contestants and result. You said something I disagreed with and supported my opinion. The only issue I have is objecting your choice to win and the reasons for that choice. You want to try take personal shots at me and whatever 2issues" you think I may have, it just proves to me further how inept you are in actually making legitimate counterpoints and so must resort to personal attacks. It's not my fault you can't understand sarcasm.

Ooooh, that was harsh, calm down people, it is not, i repeat it is not the end of the world!!!!! I'm with G4 all the way although i have a soft spot for Cassie (in a non physical sense)

Cassie is still my fave... as I type they have not announced the bottom 2 but it should be Verity and Two 2 go.

Emma was AWFUL tonight really pitchy and shrill, it such a shame because the bloke (cant remember his name) has a very smooth voice and is a pretty good pianist (not mind blowing but pretty good) They should have been harsher back in the auditions and refused to let the dreary sidekick thru with him. She is dragging him down... and for once I agree with Scowel. Duo's are dated the very nature of a boy girl duo in itself is naff.

Free jaffa cake for anyone who can think of a good girl boy duo who actually performed together full time as an act. (So no Frank and Nancy or Nat and Natalie)

EDIT: Is it just a bad choice of dress or is Kate Thornton looking a bit bumpy around the middle?

Go on !!! give me the Jaffa Cake !!

Today I was least impressed with Cassie. I was really surprised she got such good feedback - she didn't look good (in TV terms of course, I'm not exactly Miss Great Britain) and her voice didn't impress me in the slightest. I was glad that Verity went as opposed to 2 to Go because although I haven't been too keen on either of them in the past, tonight I thought the duo were better than Verity. And I love Peter's voice and the fact he actually CAN play the piano. He plays better than me, that's for sure.

And Kate Thornton should really be told that high-waisted tops tend to make people look pregnant. No offence to all high-waisted top wearers
