XFACTOR

Seriously I'm getting really involved this year - which is crazy, because since Leona Lewis was crowned, I've lost interest - not because Leona isn't amazing, but I thought that's it - you can't get a better competition winner. I also thought it was a little fixed - but that's another story.

However this year - and for some reason - I've become totally and utterly addicted - even with the weakest acts ever and why? Because it's become a cartoon and pantomime - the booing, the catcalling, the wicked witch...

It's high drama on a low scale.


I'm not going to lie - Wagner is shite, but he's amazing for the show. Everyday is filled with column inches, pages of print and headlines galore. The show is doing it's job and by keeping him in - it's doing what Big Brother could never i.e. you're left with the most boring "worthy" people, but it's terrible TV.

However if Wagner gets to Christmas #1 I will be angry - because I seriously believe that we need new Christmas songs to come up and become classics. This rant has nothing to do with the fact that I've written 4 Christmas songs this year! The UK needs a new Christmas number 1. That feeling of anticipation for Christmas day TOTP! :)

XFACTOR hasn't ruin music - it's done it a hug favour, a shot in the arm of a flagging industry - but it has killed Holiday music!

Agree Disagree, love to know what you think.
