Who is the "them" she is supposed to get?

I thought that Gary Barlow was bang out of order with his comment. I loved Carol Decker's (TPau) hit "China in your Hand" and she wasn't out of tune.
There must be something wrong with Barlow's hearing. He chose not to hear that his Frankie was out of tune a lot of the time.

It is clear beyond any doubt that Gary does not understand music outside of his genre

That was a good interview. Carol has been scheduled for a while to appear at some Absolute Radio event coming soon so Christian O'Connell suggested she sing a Take That song in her set.

She seems like fun.

She was talking to Nicky Campbell about it in on 5 Live about half an hour ago...

That is not fair comment. Gary Barlow used the platform of 10 million viewers to belittle another artist to try and appear "funny". She is perfectly entitled to hit back on whatever medium she chooses. And I can imagine most radio stations have been chasing her rather than the other way around (as did the Xtra Factor until Barlow bottled it)

My husband used to "tune" her car years ago. I don't know if she is still with Ronnie but he was a nice bloke. He let me sit in the back of a vintage car he owned at the time.

I don't think he did it to appear funny, I think it was meant as a sort of a compliment to Amelia. I thnik he spoke without thinking, that's all.

She must be delighted, she has been trying to get a few more minutes for 20 odd years now by blowing her own trumpet, I thought we may have heard the last of her but it seems Barlow may have given her an opportunity to start promoting herself again:yawn:

I bet she feels very foolish with her song "China in your hand" what with the population boom in China this would obviously be unachievable. SIlly moo.

Gary Barlow was a total prick to slate her. She's a brilliant singer, and while I like Amelia, Amelia is still just a reality show contestant who is very young and has much to learn compared to an artist like Carol Decker.

I really do wonder what Barlow is smoking sometimes.

Do you even know what the origins of the song and title are?

I couldn't understand Gary Barlow's out-of-tune comment either re T'Pau's 80s hit, I loved Carol Decker singing that song. What a twit he is.

I think the problem is that whils Gary is a briliant musician and song wrtter within his genre he has no understanding of music outside of it

I personally loved her back in the day and don't blame her for having a go back.

To think I really liked and respected Barlow pre X factor. The bloke is on the verge of career suicide as a result of getting into bed with Cowell.
