Just saw it, my god, how horrible was that! One of the worst final ever!
The whole JLS and ID was dire. ID can't sing, and JLS doesn't know how to do it anymore.
Leona was boring as usual. And why is she covering this song?! Really Syco?! Can't do anything with Leona I see. Leona has nothing to Johnny Cash's version. She needs to be wheeled back into Simon's closet.
I expected more from Buble, but he looked drunk and not into it. Pretty rubbish.
All the acts were awful. In order of bad to worst - Little Mix, then Amelia, then Marcus. Marcus should not be there. He is Eoghan all over again.
The whole mentor duet were crap. No one really cares, and just bad.
Just awful!

The duets were all incredible, the best of any other year and the judges looked like they cared alot, what was you watching! Fool
Really?!!
Last year, will give you that.
Series 6, Joe and George Michael (outsang George. impressive.)
Series 5, Alex and Beyonce (although ruined with Alex crying, Beyonce showed Kelly)
Series 4, Leon and Kylie Minogue (Kylie is just amazing! Leon was ok.)
I agree with this. The duets this year were pretty sub-standard compared to the above. Everything seemed to be on the cheap.
XF no longer want really good singers as winners. It is all about who is the most commercial, and I don't mean just selling records.
that is why the shows called the x factor, its never been just about the singing. the voice i would imagine will be different.
Thought the performances were boring and unmoving. Not bad on the vocals, just not particularly entertaining.
Only moment of the finale I really liked was Leona's perforrmance of Hurt. Everything else was so weak and blegh for a finale.
Alex matched vocally Beyonce (shame about the crying).
Joe sang one of the best songs ever written with one of the greatest male vocalists and matched him at every level.
There wasn't one spine tingling duet this year. The whole night was flat.
May be their trying to make the Public go out more and spend in the restaurants and bars?
It's the little things that you get used to every year that you miss.
It wasn't as good as previous years, that's for sure. Comparing Beyonce, Rhianna Christina etc, with last nights lot, well.........
The finalists weren't great either, this is the first year when I don't give a toss who wins.
We turned off after the first two songs and decided to watch it on youtube later and im so glad we did, 2 hours saved.
I agree there was just no emotion or excitement this year, but i guess thats what happens when the duets are with the mentors they have been with for months already.
Then again, once the mentor duets were announced it was always going to be poor. Tulisa (who admittedly was really good) turned LM into her backing singers, Kelly and Amelia both sang ok, but it just didn't work and while Gary and Marcus was the best of the night, it wasn't really entertaining or memorable.
One of the biggest travesties in musical history. Bit like Little Mix trying to do Pergolesi's Stabat Mater.
What bandwagon?
Kelly looked uncomfortable with Amelia while Amelia seemed oblivious to this. Anyway Amelia will shortly be able to forget Kelly and move on to better things.
Tulisa sang well and really got it together with Little Mix.
