They have screeched through some of my favourite songs. They also haven't picked the best people imo. And I wish they were more honest with the contestants. Some have been awful in the sing off and they keep saying "ooh that was amazing" no it bloody wasn't that was painful!!!
To be fair the battle rounds this year are way better than the first two series. I was fully expecting to turn off at this point. Possibly due to more empathetic coaches? Jessie was always hyper critical in a non empathetic way while Danny was always trying to second guess Will's choice rather than his own.
I've to agree with OP on this. In my opinion, poor quality of contestants is the major problem and production / judges are fine. I watch voice shows across the planet in various languages, but everywhere it is better than ours, again in my opinion.

I totally agree - they've turned the volume down a bit so it's not so much of a screaming contest. (The one who stands out for me is the bald woman who screamed her lungs out as though she was in the World Heavyweight Boxing championship or something )
The first part where they are just listening for a voice that they like could work if it weren't for the ridiculous teams. Good singers weren't picked because they didn't fit with the mentor's style. That was bad enough but the whole concept of the battle rounds is just stupid.

Pitting two people against each other and choosing between them is a silly way to go about whittling down the acts. You could have two poor singers and two good singers in different battle rounds. They should just have them all sing a song and choose the best ones IMO.
Another reason for this being daft is that the song chosen might suit one singer better than another.

It makes it unique, remember the coaches aren't picking anyone who has a nice voice as everyone does on the show similar to what X Factor does they pick 12 each who they think CAN WIN the show and after that the battles come and help the coaches see who has the best voice by having two at least vaguely similar to each other face off just like a boxing match to determine the better fighter or singer in this instance, that is better and more interesting than bootcamp IMO

I'm looking forward to the week where they all sing something beautiful and gentle, where all the tricks are banned out of respect for the song, and when they are judged only on singing in tune, voice production, breath control, clarity of diction and musicality.
Sick of over emotional belters.
I am thoroughly enjoying the series and must admit the singers tonight, all of them have delivered and glad I am not choosing who goes through. Wish them luck and all the best in their future careers, if they do or do not go through to the next round.

I'm struggling to see what the person wrote that you found so offensive. (S)He just said their point. What's wrong with that?

How is it?

Agree with you totally.

I prefer the UK Voice to X Factor... especially now that the talentless Cheryl is back judging people who CAN sing.
Kylie has been far more successful in everyway compared to the talentless Miss Cole. Why they are having back on Fix Factor i will never know.
No just no tob. You can't even begin to compare Kylie to Cheryl.
Maybe height wise. You can only mean that.
reading the story about the US version shows just how much these kind of contests are fixed
A kylie fan calling someone else talentless. the irony of that made me genuinly laugh.
