Just had a quick look on youtube to compare the responses to Ronan and Jai and Ronan is overwhelmingly the winner.

Audition: Ronan-3,076,615 views
Jai-----671,425 views

Its the same result for all the programmes, Ronan the clear winner.

Ah well, in the end Jai ended up getting the most votes.

jai was brilliant

To bad all those people didn't pick up the phone to vote then because thats what counts.

Also if you're going by Youtube Razzy has 6 million+ plus views so going by your theory he should be the winner,

Jai was great tonight.

Because of the spin Ronan had......

Sorry i have to break it to you, he lost Jai won

Exactly. Jai has more people compelled to vote for him. None of this "true winner" rollocks.

At the time of the final back in 2008 George Samson had 1 million views. The people that came 2nd had 22 million views. so yeah......

Exactly!

To the OP:


...even Michael Collings & Edward Reid have more views than Ronan and then of course we have the dolphin guy with 1.1 million so it tells us nothing!!

Ronan had more publicity anyway, so this isn't any big deal.
People who may not have watched vids of him before, now might have after seeing him in the news alot, etc. Plus in general there was alot more hype about him being a child singer and all.

Ronan gets the youtube award for more views than Jai,plus he gets Amanda Holden and her sour grapes,Jai gets 100k.

So, let's abandon the phone vote in favour of YouTube hits?

Think about it, Cher Lloyd's audition on XF has 15m views and all her other videos had around 4-6m, as well as having lots more fans than everyone else on Facebook, but only came 4th.

Susan Boyle is another. She almost has 68m views on her audition.She didn't win.

In the end, the true winner is the person that received the MOST votes, not the most views on Youtube.

The youtube views must be those who are just interested to see how that kid made it into the final.

and being splashed all over the news this week

Connie Talbot has 98 million viewers for her audition video, she is the greatest british reality singer ever.

Oh. Ok. It was the same with Susan Boyle and Diversity, though, and it's not hindered their career at all.
I didn't even like Jai, but people are being harsh.

Oh gawd grasping at straws.

Get over it Jai won!

who cares who got the most youtubeg views I know I dont and im glad Jai won.

I wanted Ronan to win, didn't think much of Jai, he can sing, but Ronan is better I think. But oh well, it's not the end of the world.

Bugga they both lost to AHMED!!

Razy's got more views than both of them 6 million +

So he's the real winner

Razzy = 6+ million so OP your post failed big time.

He's in a category of his own. Comparing singers it looks like Ronan is favourite .
I don't know why people should be so surprised. He has one of the best voices and I'm delighted that BGT did some good.

Jai is also a very good singer.

even Edward Reid has more views than ronan, and he didn't even make the final! Lol
