i'll take that on board lol thanks:)
thank you appreciate it:)
And please be very aware that the show is not always about talent and about ratings and hype, the press will delve into your personal life and the judges may be critical about minor faults in your performances.
Good luck!
From what she's said as soon as you walk into the room, the producers are halfway there on making their minds up on if you should progress. They do look for looks - look at all the contestants this year. 90% of them who got to judges houses were good looking.
The ones who aren't considered conventionally good looking (Jamie Afro/Rikki Loney) have a good "pop star" image....it is very generic which isn't great.
You need to have star quality (a phrase I believe is used very flippantly) which bascially means something about you (maybe your personality) needs to stand out.
I'd say go for it, but I'm not sure you'll get past the second producer round - only because you need to be original as an artist, and your voice sounds almost exactly the same to Michael Jackson's on his song. (Which is a compliment as you obviously have a good voice, but also a critique).
Good Luck though!
No if you cant take all the flack and dont want to be ripped apart on here by the general populas even if you are good.
*Based on your rendition of "yesterday" you wouldnt get my vote - sorry but good luck whatever you decide and where ever you end up
Yes I agree, OP sounded quite a bit like Michael Jackson. If the OP takes a song and makes it his own he could do very well.
tell me if i'm being thick but who was op again?
It means "Original Poster".
But I will warn you not all talented singers get through to see the judges. I have number of friends, all really talented, and not one of them has got to the judges stage. All the producers have said, "You are not ready this year, come back next year". It is very random as to who gets to that stage of competition. And if you don't through that first, just go back!
You LOL
You are the original poster.
I think you have a good vocal range. and you have good control at certain points but its not perfect. but you need more stage presence and you need to update your image a bit more. At the moment I think its extremely copycat - because you need to be a bit more original
Do you have any songs you have written to show us?
- to see what kind of artist you actually are because at the moment i dont see any originality or any good artistry because having a good voice aint good enough.
I think if you audtioned for xfactor you would get through bootcamp. Not sure about if you would get through after that. I don't think you would be good enough for the live shows yet. But you should try.
I would give you 5/10
I looked at the Accapella 'just my imagination'. This was slighlty better in my opinion but it was still copycat and not originial. 6/10
As from next series they will only be auditioning complete t***s (what? oh! that's this year).
Lol, I never knew that either till now.:o Enjoyed the op singing.:D
Hehe, some people aren't internet forum savvy.
The thing with auditioning for the x factor is.....you havent got big hair....you didnt forget any of the words and you can sing quite well sooo....a lot of the public probably wont like that....but you may as well give it a try
