Lets discuss
Now dont get me wrong the guy is a nice guy but even on X Factor didnt see his appeal
For me he is not a popstar and will never be. More cheese factor then X factor. For that reason he is a Music waste of space in my eyes. Sorry Marcus

Everyone with talent deserves a chance. Unlike most, he can actually sing well.
i feel he lacks his own identity visually and musically.
What about Rebecca Ferguson? She's from the show and is far from karaoke.
Marcus is okay, just needs better material.
Agreed.
I'd agree with this. I think musical theatre rather than poo stardom beckons. He can sing ok but there's nothing unique or different about him.
Matt Cardle is a glorified busker.
Where is Diana Vickers now? :yawn:
Her voice is massively overrated by her fans.
Her new material will be released soon, she did a few gigs showcasing her new material.

You're welcome
Or possibly massively underrated by you.
You're. If you're going to insult me, at least do it properly.
It certainly does not deserve to be the lowest charting of all the post XF debut albums - not when Tesco Mary can churn out a soulless collection of typical cover tracks. I just hope he is not dropped by the label - so far it seems like he's following the same pattern as Joe McElderry post XF.
That is what I meant by karaoke singers, as in singing covers. Yeah, they might have some original songs too, but when you need to rely on a cover as your debut single, to me it just seems so pointless.
Obviously the winners do because that's apart of the show.
And if artists who cover songs are not original what about the likes of Birdy?

Very poor effort.
I don't like her. Look, I'm not against covers. Siouxsie and the Banshees cover of The Beatles song Dear Prudence is one of my favourite songs, for example. I just don't enjoy the bulk of X Factor produce, I don't think they are conducive to creativity, originality or longevity.
Well, it's too early to say. Considering that most who won (bar Leona, Alex and Matt) have not much to offer, we can't say. We must keep looking. The reason most aren't conducive to the 3 elements, is that they aren't entertainers. There has only been one who can really put on a show. Nowadays NO ONE is original really. Too much has been done. Also, bar Rebecca,, 1D and Alex, none of them are business people. They don't have business savvy. They are ordinary people. And that is their downfall. Also, If you're not simon's favourite, you're international ambitions are f*&ked really (as Alex can attest) even if your material is decent.
So to answer the original question: Yet another waste of space in the sea of shit that is everything X Factor.
