Westlife sang their new single What About Now (Daughtry) on the results show

I take it they don’t write their own music?

As for the show, itself, Olly seems a natural Vegas performer. He would’ve been great with a rat pack song. Something from the Dean Martin or Frank Sinatra catalogue. Off to listen to more.

I don’t even recall Adam singing Feeling Good on AI so it must not have been a jaw-dropping performance in my opinion.

Adam’s performance was great; he’s just an incredible singer. But this guy Danyl wasn’t bad. He seems a little smarmy to me–like he could open for someone at a club in the Poconos . . . in the 60s. It was a competent performance, far better than Joe, and probably others–I haven’t watched them.

So weird how Simon compliments performances in the UK that would make him barf on AI.

Danyl reminds me of Danny Gokey, except Danny Gokey is a hundred times better.

And Danyl’s a hundred times better looking. Just sayin.

He’s the X Factor answer to David Archuleta, but Joe comes nowhere near Archie’s rich, velvety tone.

Or ability to interpret a song. I wonder what made you, MJ, think of DA? Age and cuteness? Because beyond that, I really don’t see a connection at all. Sway was a horrible song for that boy Joe to sing–he’s not mature enough to be seductive . . . and it’s a seductive song.

I’ve never seen this show. What’s with the dancers? That is so weird. I can’t imagine AI having dancers on the stage. How do they keep the playing field level between ballads (which I hope don’t have dancers) and uptempo songs?

X Factor performances were amateurish compared to American Idol, and I’m British. Westlife singing THEIR NEW SINGLE ‘WHAT ABOT NOW’ ? At least when Alexandra Burke sang Hallelujah they had to say it was Leon Cohen/Jeff Buckley song. Daughtry’s name wasn’t mentioned not even by the presenter let alone Westlife. Danyl’s version of ‘Feeling Good’ proved how brilliant Adam is, Rachel should look at Syesha’s ‘Proud Mary’ to learn how it should have been done. It’s a shame that the country that gave the world the Beatles, the Stones and Led Zeppelin musically has sunk so low that someone like Daughtry hasn’t been acknowledged.

Danyl was in bottom 2 after this. He and Miss Frank.

I guess I’m not the only one comparing Danyl’s performance to Adam’s performance. Not even close. Danyl is so brave to sing this. Adam’s voice is so immaculate. And who can forget that long note and that “STRUT” down the stairs!!!

Hmmm… I don’t even recall Adam singing Feeling Good on AI so it must not have been a jaw-dropping performance in my opinion. Frankly, most of last season is already gone from my memory. I guess that means I’m ready for the new season already.

Westlife sang their new single What About Now (Daughtry) on the results show and I hear that Daughtry’s version is now climbing British iTunes Chart.

Danyl reminds me of Danny Gokey, except Danny Gokey is a hundred times better. And Danny would have done Feelin Good more justice. But no one should cover this song again any time soon. It’s overdone. I cringed when Adam sang it and he was amazing. Adam received worldwide acclaim and everybody who watches these shows has seen Adam’s performance. Danyl is just okay–but what kind of fool is he to invite comparison to Adam? Britain’s Got Talent apparently used up all the talent pool in Britain. Danyl is goodlooking, but if it’s about looks, why subject us to the singing?

I tell you guys, song Feeling Good is cursed. First Adam, now Danyl.

I personally think Danyl’s version was all over the map. Ironically enough, i thought it was one of Adam’s weaker vocals (but probably my 2nd or 3rd favorite studio recording he did).

It didn’t help that Miss Frank completely bombed their sing-off performance. However, i think its total BS that Danyl got to sing his first audition song again for the sing-off. I don’t think there has ever been a winner who has been in the bottom 2 by the top 10.

And i bet simon is spinning in his chair right now wondering how his boy Dannyl got less votes than John and Edward! HAHAH!!! i mean really, this just shows that the voting system does not work.

Still tho, how funny would it have been that since Sheryl Cole sent it to a tie, Danyl would have had the least amount of votes and been eliminated? hahahaha.
