Default X Factor - Bad taste in song choice?

Just watched a repeat of last night's X Factor and the eejit wife of Ozzy Osbourne refused to comment on Journey South's rendition of Candle in the Wind.
She was downright rude and said that they "should not have sung it"

WTF is this crazy beatch on?

Anyone agree that it was in bad taste? I can only assume she was referring to the association the song has with Diana's funeral?

Personally I thought the acoustic version they sang was just excellent!

Guess it comes down to the lyrics - was it the re-hashed version for Diana's funeral or the original about Marilyn Monroe.

Either way dont see how its in-appropriate.

Personally I hate that song - either version - however journey south definatley have talent and have worked hard to get where they are today.

Original Candle in the wind and not "Englands Rose" or whatever he called it.

Cant stand Journey south. And the Big Black Girl is loosing the plot too.
She cant sing pop, And cant dance, but sharon is giving her all the wrong songs.

Really want Andy to win, but hes lost his confidence.
And that shane should be shot, dont like the bloke at all.

odd that the song is written for one dead blonde but then can never be heard again after its re-hashed for a another dead blonde. i think the only offensive part of the song is that elton took a song about someone and did it for someone else! sloppy seconds!

If we're talking about songs, then. One was about a blonde that meant something to society. The latter was about some blonde that almost all of society thought was about them.

Cant stand Journey south - why is that?? They are very popular.

And the Big Black Girl is loosing the plot too.
She cant sing pop, And cant dance, but sharon is giving her all the wrong songs - what?!?!? She has the best voice on the show by far, she won't win the whole thing but as a singer she has an amazing voice. Simon Cowell "best vocal performance of the show so far, was like a vocal lesson".

Really want Andy to win, but hes lost his confidence. - agreed.

And that shane should be shot, dont like the bloke at all - agreed, he's a smug **** ins't he.

Maybe they should have sung the version released for the death of Mother Theresa - Sandals in the Bin.Now Chico's out there's no point (if there was one in the first place) in watching it anymore .
