Am I the only one? 
I always thought he was really average. I don't think he has a future in the music business. He is too ordinary and lacks the identity. He can't play an instrument or write his own songs either like Luke can. I'm starting to think they only like him because he's young and probably a nice lad behind the scenes.... But the fact is, he can't sing and shouldn't be in the final.
If he wins The X Factor, he won't be heard of again. Just like Joe McElderry. Luke is the only one that has a future out of the three. And Abi.
Just my opinion.

I don't know what you mean about Joe disappearing. He's had four albums out
I'm sorry, I am unimpressed with Luke's guitar playing. Only against the truly woeful Abi did he appear like a musician. X Factor is a singing show, not a musician's show and if it were Luke would not get this far because there would be great musicians on it. I do like Luke but you mustn't overhype him, he's one dimensional and guilty of just about all the criticism Nick gets on this forum. And we know that Luke has three times gone forward in this series and the least like contestant, whereas Sam and Nick never have.
how do you know he cant play an instrument, how do you know he cant write his own songs, he just only 17 about 2 weeks ago and he is a much better singer than luke and how do you know luke write his own stuff and you can predict the future no body knows wat going to happen a year time
You could make this statement about many famous singer's, especially male, they just don't have to put themselves in a position where the limitations will show!
Luke on the other hand is missing notes that are well within his range!
people forget his voice is suited to indie type of songs I wont give up, a thousand years etc the stuff he sang at bootcamp etc and I think he has a bigger range then you think I saw a you tube video of him singing I wont give up in motherwell and hit a high note with little effort but halo was never going to suit him
a thousand years is not an indie song
Some people forget that songs by Jason Mraz and Christina Perri are not indie songs.
Oh he was, but his voice isn't as spectacular as people think. It just so happens that other people were stitched up in the early weeks.
damn your right I just trying to make a point of wat type of song would suit his voice
By all means prefer Luke if that's your thang, but don't make false claims for him, and moreover don't make false claims against Nicholas.
I agree if he stays within his range he sounds great , its not maybe a great indicator of his future if he is limited like that tho
Fair point except Halo would be outside the vast majority of male singers range.
a lot of male singers don't have huge range and still do well so I don't see where the problem is you wont see ed sheeran singing a type of song like halo would you Nicholas has a wonderful tone to his voice
I like Nicholas' tone too. I think he's been fairly consistent every week.
I never disagreed with that , said as soon as I saw what he was singing that the song was too big for him
not sure I would be comparing him to ed sheeran yet however
my problem with Nicholas has always been a complete lack of identity in his music , with almost every other contestant you could see what direction they would maybe go in after the show if they got the chance , with Nicholas I don't have a clue , he is a bit of a blank canvas atm
I've never heard him talk about influences and it always worries me when someone who wants to be a singer doesn't seem to have a great knowledge about music , might be doing him a disservice there but just never heard him talking about it
I think that's as much to do with Luke not having any vibrato, at least not at top belt. It makes those notes sound very course (aside from the rocky grit in his voice). Also, if he's not quite hitting the note it's that much more jarring because of it.
He can sing and is as cute as a button.
I like as well that he always come out on the show hand in hand with sam on a saturday.
She taught him how to use a washing machine and i like that.
I think Nicholas and Sam get on well.
Im Scottish....and if it was a Sam/Nicholas final i'd be voting for Sam.
I like Nicholas and i think he's a cracking wee singer but for me Sam tops it.
Sorry Nicholas...i like you to bits but i like Sam more.
i wont be comparing them i was just saying ed sheeran has a limited range and doing great with it and a lot of other singers are the same i don't have a clue wat Nicholas wants to do as such but he listens to indie, acoustic and pop and modern stuff but on the show he been given completely different genre predictable ballets about love and heartbreak wat a 17 year know about love and heartbreak and i don't think x factor have helped him much either to improve
