What does everyone think of him?
Chris Evans says he is going to be an international megastar.
I've only heard Lightning Bolt, which I think is pretty cool.

First album, not bad movement for someone who has only just arrived. Second album is what it's all about though, he has to better it and it has to be a commercial success.
Good songwriter.
Good guitarist.
Decent voice.
However, I do agree with this.
It's his personality, he brags, he's cocky and arrogant and sometimes straight up rude.
The only thing he was wrong about was Mumford & Sons.
I'm no Leona fan. I just don't like that he's overly confident and cocky. I don't like that about anyone, famous or otherwise.
He didn't say anything cocky or boast about his own work.
It was an opinion, no different to what anyone says on here... i'm pretty certain everyone sits, listens to a piece of music and says "that's crap".
Would you rather he said he thought X Factor was wonderful despite him not actually believing that? I would have less respect for him for then being an arse kisser and a liar.
So to sum up, no, he's not my thing.
It would be better if he actually judged an artist based on their music rather than the fact that they were on X Factor. Many contestants go on to make excellent albums and they all sound very different. Also, I have listened to some of his songs and in my opinion they are rubbish. They sound like Oasis b-sides that no one listened to.
He is an "arse-kisser". Being anti-X Factor is exactly what you need to do to get rock fans (his target audience really) to like you.
But Rihanna is your... "thing". Okay then.
Oasis B-Sides that no one listened to?
Oasis B-sides wiped the floor with most artists leading singles from what I remember... Talk Tonight, Half The World Away, The Masterplan, Acquiesce etc.
That's not true at all. There's thousands of indie bands that say the same every week and get ignored because their music is nothing special.
Music comes first.
Saying that Oasis did have some cracking songs as B sides...
