I think he will.

I know people are saying it's no guarantee as leon jackson missed out, but the way I see it is people were happy for joe to win, he performed consistently every week, whereas no one really expected Leon to win, he was nowhere as popular as Joe was.

And also if Olly can get to no1 without x factor promotion then surely joe the winner can with an x factor performance.

I think he will, I'm really not a fan of him as a winner of X Factor, but having listened to the songs a few times know, it's actually REALLY catchy and I think I will be going on iTunes to buy it!

Plus, I love how he's not released a GOD DAMN BALLAD or Don't Stop Believin', so he has respect from me.

Joe is almost definitely going to be on the X-Factor this weekend, just in time for his single release on Sunday/Monday

On it's own it probably won't, but the sheeple will speak and download it en-mass and it'll get to number 1.

he'll definitely get to number one because cowell will make sure of it, even though the record is utterly abysmal.

they'll most likely release in a quiet week to make absolutely certain.

Sara Cox played this the other day. Very surprising that Radio 1 give a damn.

It's got a decent hook but pure cheesy crap, and a cover.

Sony/BMG make sure Radio 1 DO give a crap...

The song's not that bad for a cheesy pop throwaway but I can't believe how much they messed with his voice. Just check out any of his X Factor live performances and you know he's a great singer, it can't be denied.

Well, I like the song.

People judging him because of the show, really need a life.

He's taken his chances, and the xfactor was one of them.

Yes he will get to number 1 for sure. The dance routine in the video is really cheesy, wonder if he will do that on x-factor.

I'd say he probably will, but only because of the X Factor performance.

It's practically guaranteed no matter who you are and what the song is. The sheeple do what they're told en masse.

Could that also be said for you??

Seen as your judging people for having an opinion. Or are you just going to use double standards with this one?]


Anyway back to the topic he will with having x factor to show it off but not sure he would have done without x factor.

I have a feeling both him and Pixie Lott could peform their songs on this weekends X-Factor. There's no doubt that Pixie Lott's song is miles better, so i think it could be between them two for number 1.

Well, the show spews out crap, basically, which is why people do this. I like watching the show, but almost all the time the stuff ex contestants release is awful, and this is no exception.

The song is shit no matter where he came from. It's camp, cheesy and seems to be targeted towards the Disney Channel lot!

I think a lot of people will download the original in protest

I want Ting Tings to get No.1 but no thanks to stations or channels not playing the song/video apart from Radio 1 they wont get it. Joe will get No.1 as at least 11 million will be watching X Factor and Simon will only get his acts or his friends (Robbie, Michael Buble, Pixie etc) to perform and not others that deserve it.

So unfortunatly, it looks as if Joe will get it. But that thing with Leon was odd though as millions watched and hardly any bought.

He isn't a recording artist and we'll see that when he (quite obviously) flops. He may be good on stage, but it's a totally different world. he won the X-Factor because he was cute and could sing in tune.

Of course he will, with the machine that is Simon Cowell behind him. Don't forget, he will no doubt have an X-Factor appearance lined up.

I hope he does, as at least he can sing live and doesn't need any tinkering with his voice

But hey, I forgot, you don't need to be able to sing to get a number one these days
