Shayne was quite good last night. He's got a very good voice - very pure - but Andy was better I thought.


It was very hard to choose between the three of them last night but overall, I would not have chosen Shayne as the out-and-out winner

My friend calls Shayne Gareth Williams-Young, because he reckons he's just a mish-mash of Gareth Gates, Will Young and Robbie Williams - no originality.


I know Simon said he was 'gutted' for Journey South, but this was the best result for him. He needs an act that will sell and Shayne will.

Who needs karma when you know you're great already?

I think that sums it all up. He will sell.


What did you all think of the cant't-sing-will-sing gang murdering My Way?  Was it funny or sad? Was it harmless fun or a crule freak show? I can't make up my mind.


Does anyone remember an act called Tiny Tim in the 60s? He was a strange, long-haired, banjo-playing chap who sang Tiptoe through the tulips in a freaky, high-pitched voice and it was a HUGE hit. the mind boggles really.

There are some songs and I just can't understand how they ever did well. 


Christmas songs are a case in point.  The Mel and Kim one is cringingly embarrasing.  Who bought that?


That guy out of the Pogues and Kirstie Macoll (God bless her soul) is also irritating because the Irish man can't sing for toffee and sounds like Bob Geldoff on a bad day.


I think Stay Another Day by Heaven 17 is a good one as is George Michael's Careless Whisper.  Both bring back memories.

Mistaken is just a fancy wrong.
