    Matt Cardle's band, for anyone who hasn't seen this.

    The album was only released in January, it's pretty good. I'm surprised he went for X-Factor. Then again, I probably wouldn't have heard of it without X-Factor

    When I talk about making a significant impact on the charts I'm comparing sales to the peak period of the 1970s. The fact that you can get a number One these days with 30,000 copies sold, a top ten hit with 13,000 and a top forty place with 2,500 sales, means that the likes of Girls aloud cannot be seriously compared to the likes of the Beatles, Abba, or even the Spice Girls.

    So, no I don't think they've made much of an impact.



    My opinion that's all.
    dont really see how you can compare todays music sales/scene to something that happened 30 odd years ago when the only way you could listen to music was either buy a single/record or the radio. There are so many more ways now to listen to the band of your choice. Im sure if you ask any teenage girl/boy if they think girls aloud are a big group then the answer will be yes

    This is a guy who is genuinely talented. If there was any justice and the show was really about uncovering true talent he would win hands down. He has an absolutely brilliant voice thats is very, very different from a lot of whats out there.

    He also has a self depricating quality about him and a lack of confidence that i find quite appealing. He's certainly a lot more unique and would be a far more worthy winner than exceptionally annoying, wannabe black but so, so white, 'unique' Cher.

    At my age, I don't see how I can do anything else!

    My point is though, that in the past everyone - whatever their age could name a Beatles song, or an Abba song. I'm not sure that is the case with Girls Aloud.

    Re Pretty Boys comment about oh so white people wanting to be black - I found myself in The Sports Cafe @ Haymarket in London a couple of weeks ago, it was student night and I was uncomfortably the oldest person there, I was amazed by the number of people in the place acting and talking like gangstas - maybe it aint ma ting tho bruv innit!

    It's even worse when you hear a plooky ginger headed Scottish kid do it though.

    Only saw one performance tonight and it was by Aiden Grimshaw. It was quite simply one of the worst efforts i have ever seen.

    He destroyed Jealous Guy by John Lennon and Loius Walsh thought it was superb

    I like Aiden but that was dreadful tonight. Still, Diva Fever and Wagner have to go tomorrow night.

    On the plus side, Matt Cardle was again excellent. Stunning voice!

    I didn't see it all, but I think if they work on Matt's image any more, their going to have him looking like Bon Jovi. An amazing singer, he really deserves better than this glorified Karaoke competition.

    Mary was good as well, Wagner is just car crash TV, Aiden was brutal but it was the wrong song. Katy is just a Waissel space.

    He wasn't great by any means, but not the worst singer of the lot.

    Wagner should not have got anywhere near the judges' houses stage, let alone week 3 of the live finals. At least Diva Fever have gone though.

    Wagner

    Storm is clearly one of those guys who thinks he is amazing whilst everyone else knows he is average at best

    You don't seriously think Simon Cowell is going to let that happen do you?

    Even at this early stage Matt Cardle should win but hopefully Wagner will upset the odds and end this show once and for all.

    That's not going to happen. Simon Cowell has just signed up for another three years, and promptly trousered 20 million. The whole deal is estimated to be 100 million for the X Factor and Britain's Got Talent. Nice work if you can get it!

    He's more enjoyable to watch than either of the bottom two, so merits his place I think!

    Wagner owned a Lion.

    Deserves to win for that alone IMO.
