Sick to Death of Andrea

I have truly had all I can take of Andrea.

I was so pleased Simon gave an honest piece of feedback.

His facialc expressions and intesnity make him look like he is on the toilet.

He is not that good, does the same every week and wish the public would tire of him.

Would love him to go before the final - unlikely but still don't think he'll win.

    I don't think he'll win but he knocks spots off everyone else and has done from the start. Apart from him this is by far the worse year in the show's history.

    Wow I don't get the Andrea hate at all, he is definitely miles better than most of the other acts but in saying that I have a soft spot for Lauren, Ben, Only the Young & Stevi

    just remember when you listen to his CD you don't have to look at him :)

    Andrea is outstanding. One of the most talented contestants the show has ever had.

    Xfactor should be lucky to have him, IMO he's up there with Leona talent wise

    I thought last year was the worst, or to be fair, the less exciting. I found Tamera irritating, Nicholas boring, Luke dull, Rough Copy annoying, and Sam old-fashioned. This year is much better in terms of entertainment, not to mention there are so many good looking people on board also, both boys and girls.

    He reminds me of Nicholas McDonald... he sings beautifully and that's all, he's not good at somethin else, at showing an enjoyable body language for instance. As a matter of fact, it's really important for a performer which his fan think is going to sell millions copies of album right?

    Don't you like Fleur then? Funny that.

    Andrea has an exceptional voice, I kinda wish he had gone on BGT as he would have stormed it and become basically Boyle 2.0.

    His nasal, whiny, grunty-groany thing he does on the big notes reminds me of James Arthur. When he reigns it in and sings, he's great, then he just blows it with the braying and shouting.

    no-one is ever going to be Boyle 2.0 as its basically impossible to re-create the shock value of her initial audition and the resultant publicity

    do you really think if andrea was on BGT that he would end up getting invited to go on Oprah, or the equivalent, on the back of it

    and I am by no means a fan of hers so have no ulterior motive in this post

    I just don't enjoy watching or listening to Andrea....and I don't know where he is going to fit into the current marketplace. I can't think of a single recently charted song that he could realistically record as well as the current singer.

    I think he would've been better on BGT as the more I see him the more I get bored of him

    Nope not a fan of Fleur. ive said very early on she isn't as good as the show or some people think, her voice is weak & she over raps and her forum supporters have totally put me off her.

    Im also not a big fan of Stereo kicks if you're interested as well ;P

    Andrea has a lot more in his bag than x factor is showing you, They seem to be pushing the 'diva' side of things but he is so much more than that.

    It's a shame to see such a hate filled topic for someone who doesn't deserve it. He's a great talent and a really sweet harmless guy. Genuinely bemused at how anyone could be so negative about him.

    Totally agree with you Janey. Even if he's not people's favourite, why do they have to be so nasty about him, when he's such a lovely guy? He's got a great voice and I look forward to him singing every week, but it's his sweet personality that makes me really love him. Watching his video clip every week usually brings a tear to my eye, especially when he went back to see his family in Italy.

    The hatred is bizarre but that's people for you! He's a wonderful talent, by far the best singer - but he won't win.

    If he was British, maybe a different story but I think people will connect more with some of the other contestants and this is a popularity contest, not a singing contest and no one should be naive enough to think otherwise.

    He does pull annoying faces though ;-)

    XFactor and Britain's Got Talent judges go weak at the knees when a 'classical' singer comes before them. Can you believe Louis even mentioned Pavarotti in the same breath. At least Rhydian tried to vary things, had a far better voice but still failed to make it in his apparent first love of opera. Andrea would not even get on the starting line of opera.

    A bit harsh, he's a little bland for my taste, but he's a good singer and a nice guy. i don't get the problem with him:confused:

    Dont think Andreas ever professed to do opera/classical, he wants to do soul/gospel which I can really see him doing. Xfactor are pushing the 'diva' side of things.

    I know Andreas voice is not everyones cup of tea, wouldn't the world be a boring place if we all liked the same thing, but he is a genuinely nice guy and don't get the negativity that some people have towards him.

    Um, Rhydian was never an opera singer. He's classically trained and has never aspired or trained to be an opera singer.

    I don't get what some people want...

    People dislike you if...

    - You are a bad singer
    - You're a novelty act
    - You rap
    - You sing ballads every week, and people complain that they don't do a faster song
    - You sing fast songs, but people complain that they don't sing ballads
    - You are shy... "this person is so dull"
    - You are loud and have personality, "this person is so cocky and irritating"
    - You're not British
    - You play a guitar
    - You stand still when your singing
    - You dance too much
    - You have a Diana Vickers type voice
    - You have a shouty diva voice
    - You pull faces when singing
    - You show no emotion whatsoever when singing

    What do people want?

    If we base it on VOICE, then Andrea is the best there.

    He is adorable and such a powerful voice.

    He always comes across as really sweet and likeable.

    Probably peaked too soon and not sure he would set the charts a light but really enjoy him on the show.
