X Factor UK 2011 Live Show 1

There has been talk in the papers about the show losing viewers.  I think this has nothing to do with the judges but as people are rightly saying – too many adverts.

X Factor Australia Live Show 4

This was 90’s night and I still can’t work out where they get all the songs from!

X Factor Australia Live Show 2

Considering it was ‘party’ week the song choices were tuly abysmal and none of the acts really stood out like last week. Young Men’s Society were good and one of the best vocals was Andrew Wishart. Read more

X Factor UK 2011

So we now know who will be going through to the  judges houses.

Gary Barlow is off to LA with the boys.

Kelly Rowland is off to Miami with the girls.

Louis Walsh is off to Barcelona with the over 25s.

Tulisa Contostavlos is off to Greece with the groups.

It seems that all the judges are happy with their categories and seem really committed to them (not sure about Louis as he appears go have Goldie in his group?).

Muse – Uprising

A great track by a great group.

Although I’ve heard of the group I’d not equated their music to the band.  It was only watching X Factor Australia that I heard this song and worked through Amazon to find the band and the song.  Their albums are now on my birthday wish list.




X Factor 2011

As the new season of X Factor is underway I had resigned myself to not watching it due to the change in judges (apart from Gary Barlow who I really admire).

Fast forward past the audtions I am now tuning in with the other millions of people because I think it’s such a great judging panel.  The combination of Gary, Kelly Rowland, Tulisa Contostavlos and Louis Walsh (still not sure of Louis and how he claps!) has made for something fresh and more exciting.  Have not missed Simon Cowell at all I think Gary Barlow is far better in the head judges role.
