The Wanted's DIRE performance on Loose Women today
Absolutely loving their new single but my god today's performance was a shamble. They were completely out of tune in parts, particularly at the beginning when the shaved head guy opens the song, two of them were actually grabbing their crotches during the performance and then at the end started showing their sweat patches to the camera and one another. They seriously need to sort themselves out for live performances.... CRINGE

The guy your referring to with the shaved hair is the best singer out of the lot i reckon, even though im not a huge fan of them. |

Perfect example of a band only popular for their looks. |

From what I've seen of them they seem like a decent enough boyband and when I've heard them sing they're not fantastic but they're competent enough for a boyband. I'm not going to hurt my ears by listening to the link above though, sorry

They are playing an outdoor gig a few hundred metres from my house next week.
Think I'll stay indoors and shut the windows. |

Anyone else remember their absolutely dire X Factor performance?
They're essentially just five average looking singing models. They seem to be fun and they obviously appeal to young girls but they're pretty dire as musicians. |

That doesn't seem like such a bad performance.
The Wanted are just a bad band. This isn't anything unusual IMO. |

...Ouch
They seem quite hit and miss with their performances, which is a shame because to be fair to them, when they're on it they're really good.Some of their live lounges are brilliant - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0y2WITw7-M http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPdH8...eature=related |

Oh my. That is awful.
What's with the curly-haired one? Boyband members are supposed to be at least vaguely attractive and he's got MINGER written all over him. |

That performance was terrible and I don't like their music, but I think it's fair to point out that they've performed better than that.

The bald one is deffinately off at the beggining and the only one I think can sing is Nathan, who I've recentley found out is born on the exact same day and year as me, I don't rate the others but Nathan is quite good

Curly-boy has NO purpose! ![]() http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgur...0&tx=60&ty=101 As for The Wanted, the shaven head one (Max) is usually pretty good live but he was terrible there. The one with the weird eyes and nose (Tom) is quite weak but can hold a note, the youngest looking one (Nathan) looks SO annoying but isn't bad at singing and the other two (Siva and then Jay the curly one) are dreadful singers and dreadful personalities. |

Yikes the bald one is so pitchy and off-tune at the start, you're right. And Baby Spice to the immediate left of him looks like he's standing on the sidelines of a school disco waiting for someone to ask him to dance. This is so deliciously awkward. You can tell the crowd must be quite small as they're struggling with where to look. Also, the fact so much of the song is instrumental is problematic in such a confined space: no one seems to know what to do with themselves. They clearly know it was rubbish as well, hahaha. Thanks for the link, that was hilarious.

I didn't catch that but watched T4 on the Beach yesterday and thought they were absolutely dreadful live there.
Perfect example of a band only popular for their looks. Imo the only remotely good looking one (looking at the video, don't know their names) is the one at the back wearing the light brown pants and the black hair. He's got model looks. The others aren't that good looking.. well perhaps the one with curly hair too. But the others... no.
