James McArthur wooo hoooo
The only true, original performer this year. None of the others come close. Technical trained versus true originality, James outshone the rest yet again,

It wasn't original actually, just like last week he covered another artists version of the song and didn't give them credit, leading the audience to believe he came up with a unique arrangement.

I agree, I hope he wins it. Even if he doesn't, he'll deffo get a record deal and make more record sales than the 'winner'.

Don't get him at all.
Can't understand the fuss about him. Yes he is different but that doesn't necessarily mean good |

All his 'unique' takes on songs have actually been ripped from other artists. He's as original as calling your pet dalmatian 'Spot'.

If the audience can't recognise the original version more credit to James. He takes nothing away just enhances what's there to start with.
Oh God. It's misleading and sneaky not to give dues to the artist he's ripping off and passing as his own work.

If a contrived Lidl version of a contrived Marilyn Manson version of a great original song is your cup of tea, then I'm happy for you.
But, it was horrendous. |

James was my favourite this week by a country mile. Superb performance and a brilliant cover of a classic song.

Arthur is totally contrived. |

I think people are recognising he has something different to offer,
But we shouldn't encourage it. Quote:
Noooooo, Bananafish I thought James M would be right up your street.
![]() He sings like he's got a mouth full of spanners which are causing him pain, and us. Can't pronounce anything and all the songs are lost beneath all this contrived nonsense. It's not real. "I'm doing my dark, intense thing" Yes James, we know. Stop it. |

He can get away with such a contrived interpretation of it, that's his whole act. James just seems like an idiot doing it. |

James was excellent tonight. He's got good stage presence.

It was an identical, just badly done, copy of this:
http://vimeo.com/37649226 Marilyn Manson is an act, James' problem is he thinks it's real. |

There's nothing original what so ever about him and he has at best a decent voice
