The Luke Friend Appreciation Thread

Since someone pointed out there is no Appreciation Thread for him I thought I will start one

I like his voice

HMO · 05/10/13 - 21:51

I pointed it out.

He has a nice tone, I like his 'quirky' style.

Needs to wash his hair though, badly.

[Deleted User] · 05/10/13 - 21:57

I hope the show doesn't change him I think he has a good image and identity that sets him apart from most contestants.

ItsBrooke · 05/10/13 - 21:58

Yes I hope the show doesn't change him myself, I doubt they will tho.

[Deleted User] · 05/10/13 - 22:05

The first live show is 80's week think this theme could be perfect for him.

HMO · 06/10/13 - 02:31

He's in the live shows

JustArun · 06/10/13 - 02:31

Yes!!!!

aliyah101 · 06/10/13 - 02:51

He's my favourite, he has star quality, love his look and the raspy tone to his vocals.

[Deleted User] · 06/10/13 - 03:25

He's my favourite from the boys. He's got a nice voice, I would listen to him usually.

There's something about his voice that I just love, I really want him to do well!

You want his body too :rolleyes:

Na am joking you'll get used to my sense of humour hahaha

Impressive performance last night. Out of all the acts in his category I think he has by far the most potential.

I think Luke is working on his body

he tweeted about working out in the gym a few weeks ago.:D

Also guys - here are some of Lukes original songs -

Haha!

The hate Luke is getting on the main forum :rolleyes::rolleyes: (and it's mostly cause of his hair). I'm glad Luke said on Xtra factor that he wouldn't change his hair cause it would mean he'd be changing his identity, I love his look - makes him stand out from the crowd and gives him that edge.

I have a lot of respect for him for standing up for himself and not selling out for the show. He's certainly not the typical X Factor contestant.

Why would you hate someone cause of there hair tho? Seriously makes no sense! I don't really look on main forum much I open my mouth to much and tell them how it is and get banned :mad: hahaha

Yes! He seems like a really lovely down to earth character too and someone who will remain true to himself. I read an XF article on DM and he's quoted to have said that he's interpreting an old classic to fit his own style in the first live show. can't wait

. I'm usually the supporters of acts who are a bit indie and edgy and not the usual typical XF contestant (Aiden, Diana etc), they usually appeal to a niche audience but their music post-show usually has a lot of quality and credibility.

Brooke - I've defended him a few times on the forum stating how he's a real artist and incredibly marketable atm! Try not to get banned

HMO · 06/10/13 - 21:42

The idea of him washing his hair is likely to be for his benefit - it'll probably end up falling out. He could keep that style though.

He could be this year's Aiden/Diana, in the sense that he has his 'own style'. Would be interesting to see how far he gets, and what he does with songs.

Let's keep this thread active.

I don't understand why he's getting hate. Unfortunately, some idiots can't see past his hair and see what a talented guy he is :rolleyes:

HMO · 07/10/13 - 23:27

So he does wash his hair, just not with shampoo... :cool:

http://www.reveal.co.uk/lifestyle/news/a521462/x-factor-top-12-luke-friend-my-hair-doesnt-smell-and-i-do-wash-it.html

I look forward to how he takes an 80s song and make it his own.

He could come out on the first live show and then emerge as a favourite, like Aiden did. Here's hoping.

Hassan please post a thread on this just to shut up the "Luke is a minger" posters :rolleyes::p

HMO · 08/10/13 - 13:47

Maybe he could sing 'Mad World' this weekend?

That would actually be a great song choice

When Aiden Grimshaw did it, he was amazing.

Luke has quite a gravelly tone to his voice so his take on that song will be very interesting!

What other songs are we thinking for the 80's? I'm a 90's baby so my knowledge of the 80's is quite limited

Hey there!
