Default X Factor argh....!!!

Well since the wife has the remote, it looks like I'm stuck with this tonight..

Can someone tell me what does "... you've really made the song your own.." mean

Surly, its someone else's song which they are singing to - the words are the same and the tune is the same, how can they have made it their own...



And - what does "..the performance was a bit karaoke.." mean

They are all singing to a backing track, all the performances are karaoke

I'm sure that anyone who is any good has already been found. Maybe the X-factor should return once every five years just to give the new undiscovered talent a chance. Tis all **** now

I find this years finalist's a bit poor quality.

I'm hoping that they can get a bit better, but I think that's a long shot.

I find it a bit frustrating that rather than being themselves, they have to be 'different'. Those are two very different things.
All the crazy make up and stupid hats and hair will not make them look or sound good.

I'm hoping that as it's early days there is a lot more on offer.

It makes me laugh how when the judges just turn up for a surprise visit to the wildcards houses they all just happen to be in and answer the door and diva fever with beaver fever just happen to have a room full !

All the women had makeup on, and not a baggy t-shirt/jogging bottom in sight. Funny that.
