		<description>Simon really sucks on TXF, or should I say, TXF REALLY sucks...way more so than Idol. It&#039;s all about the judges, and the crappy group stuff...</description>

		<description>I never had any respect for Simon in the first place, so no problem there. He has a history, I think, of picking songs and same arrangements already done on one or the other. I think Katharine McPhee&#039;s OTR was very similar to something someone did on X Factor, and there&#039;s at least one more example. (All By Myself? Something like that.) Simon seems to be someone who sticks with what he, in his limited imagination, thinks works.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;P.S. There are two SimonÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s the Xfactor one, and the American Simon, he forgets that we get glimpses of both. His duplicitous nature is hysterical.&lt;/blockquote&gt;



I cannot believe Simon was so easy on that guy!  That performance was totally lackluster.  Archie is most definitely leagues beyond this guy.  I think Simon forced himself to give him a good review because it was Simon himself who picked the song for him.  It&#039;s official... my respect for Simon has gone totally down the toilet.   :flush_tb:</description>

		<description>&quot;Slaps Simon (in my head).

Puhleeeeze. Do not try to clone our Archuleta. It cannot be done. Even a Cookfan can tell you that.

Pisses in his tea for good measure. (Sorry, Archie, I know you wouldnÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t approve).&quot;

Haha you took the words right out of my mouth &lt;strong&gt;maturin&lt;/strong&gt;.

I would like to ask why are these people still comparing Archie and Cook? It&#039;s only going to create fan war and I&#039;m sick and tired of this. LO is doing extrememly well. Being #17 on billboard on it&#039;s very first week is a hell of an accomplishment. What am I saying? The comparison will never stop. I guess I&#039;ll just buy three copies of Archie and Cook&#039;s album and let the fans do the rest.</description>

		<description>OK, I checked it out, and the youngster can sing really nicely, but the emotional impact was lacking.

P.S. There are two Simon&#039;s the Xfactor one, and the American Simon, he forgets that we get glimpses of both. His duplicitous nature is hysterical.</description>

		<description>On X-Factor, Britain&#039;s version of American Idol, Simon Cowell chose Archie&#039;s stylized &quot;Imagine&quot; for a 16-year old contestant to sing.


&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;strong&gt;David Archuleta Influences Song Choice on X-Factor - Imagine That &lt;/strong&gt;

American Idol Judge Simon Cowell selected David ArchuletaÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s version of Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…â€œImagine, right down to the similar guitar track and slight lyric change, for 16 year old Irish contestant EoghanÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s first X-Factor performance. X-Factor contestants are divided by age with one judge serving as mentor for each particular age group. Apparently, David ArchuletaÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s exemplary AI performance made such an impact on Simon Cowell, he now considers it a standard by which others should be judged. David has set the talent show bar pretty high. How did 16 year old EoghanÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s version of Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…â€œImagineÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  compare to David ArchuletaÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s? You be the judge.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

You can check out the performance at &lt;a href=&quot;http://archuletafanscene.com/2008/10/11/david-archuleta-influences-song-choice-on-x-factor-imagine-that/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Archuleta Fanscene&lt;/a&gt;.



&lt;blockquote&gt;From what I just witnessed on this video, Simon with the X Factor is trying to recreate last seasonÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s American Idol with another young, cute teenage boy singing DavidÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s material, but unfortunately (although the boy seems like a nice lad) Eoghan does not have the voice nor the heart nor the maturity of David. There really is no comparison at all. IÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m not sure Simon is smart in trying to clone a once-in-a-generation experience.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I donÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t know that much about all of this, but isnÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t it pretty normal for new artists to self title their albums?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It&#039;s pretty typical for Idols to self-title their albums, at least in the past few years.  That&#039;s probably why ET is assuming it&#039;s self titled...</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think it&#039;s going to be self-titled.  David has said when he hears the final product he will come up with a name. I think he&#039;s much too creative for a self-titled record. (I sure hope I&#039;m right.)  Notice that they showed the magic rainbow pic when they said that.  To me, it&#039;s just another case of lazy journalism.</description>
