I Don't Like Ben's Voice

I'm probably in a minority but I cringe when he sings as it sounds like he's forcing it. Is that his real singing voice or is he just putting it on? If that's forced then there's no wonder he gets sore throats. It really grated on me tonight.
He shouldn't have touched that song. Only Aerosmith do it justice.
He's another one who thinks looks are going to just get him through.

I have changed it to washed up busker on the london underground trying to sound rock like.
It's amusing how Mel's never forgiven him for calling Cheryl beautiful and not complimenting her though.
I love his voice, and his looks. Having said that, though it's only week 3, he hasn't really been forced out of his comfort zone yet - sure later in the competition he'll be given something that doesn't suit his personality or his vocals and maybe he could find himself in trouble - For me, that's the trouble with the X factor and year on year with the odd exception churns out some mediocre talent who ends up committed to be Simon Cowell's puppet for the next few months/years until they're dropped back into obscurity or managed to pull themselves back up and forge a decent career for themselves!
Pity Ben has had to use this show to get himself "out there". Most singers stick to the style that suits them and there's a good reason for that!
I don't find it cringeworthy but I do agree with the rest.
Agree with you. I really love his voice. I'm a Bryan Adams fan & would love Ben to try some of his rocky tracks. Ben is in my top 3 definitely ;-)
What was he saying to Mel, was he apologising for something in the VT that had pissed him off?
No PLZ would rather not hear any legendary Bryan Adams song getting murdered by a complete amateur.
Last night exposed him severely. The week before the song arrangement saved him. He has a gritty sounding voice, but no ability to use it. There is no way he could control his voice when singing higher notes from artists like Bryan Adams, doubt he could even hit those notes to b honest, simply far too inexperienced.
I think he has played it way too safe with his song choices so far and his performances have also been quite dull and boring tbh.
He has failed to make any sort of impact vocally or also through his performances too. He better start going out of his comfort zone and taking chances if i am to even continue to take notice in him lol
He has a great Rock voice.
Joe Cocker had a similar typr voice and look how far he went.
His good looks are a bonus
I HATE that Aerosmith song - especially by Aerosmith.
What an overated group.
