PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT OF LOUIS WALSH SPEAKING ON THE GERRY KELLY SHOW - FRIDAY 17 DECEMBER


Gerry`s guest was Louis Walsh who was saying that he thought G4 should have won the X Factor "They are going to win in the long-term because everyone loves them and we`ve just signed a very, very good contract with Sony"

GK - "That`s a good deal then?"

LW - "Sony UK - It`s done yeah.....it`s not signed but it`s as good as signed. We`re already picking the songs for the album. The album will be out for Mothers Day and I think they are going to be fantastic."

GK - "You`re going to manage G4?"

LW - "I am going to manage G4 absolutely"

.................Repeat after me pennycancle................. there is no way of knowing what G4 are doing till they do it .....................Louis wouldn't know the truth if it came up and but him.......................G4 have already said they've never signed anything with Sony.
There that wasn't hard was it. Lol.

P.s. Also repeat Louis is about as reliable as a BBC adjudicator.

.......incorrect whip.......what Matt ACTUALLY said on This Morning was that phone calls had been made, but nothing had been finalised as yet. An album out in March - can`t wait and a lucrative deal with Sony UK - wonderful news

Again a statement about as reliable as a BBC adjudicator.

.....OK whip, we`ll wait until the album is released in March.....and then, and only then you may JUST start believing they MIGHT actually have signed with Sony UK. But in the meantime, we will agree to disagree

That wont work. The policy on here seems to be, If you cant win the argument, rubbish its content.

Alot of people believed Steve would win, and others said no way, G4 have as good as already won - Steve won and the show that had picked G4 out as quality became a fix and its format was ridiculed!

Hey, this aint bullying mind!

It just goes more Petty each day this bashing! of each artist, Digital have in the past CLOSED MESSAGE BOARDS, it will be a shame if this happens here due to just a few! and spoils it for everyone else.

If You don't like an Artist keep off the thread.

......I think perhaps there are a minority for whatever reasons think G4 are not deserving of a record contract and the fact they will be releasing an album has not gone down too well with them. I think you have to develop a very hard skin on here.......we G4 fans have now been called "brain-washed"........nice ain`t it

I cannot agree more jaybs, it is getting absolutely ridiculous. What is wrong with Penny posting something she has read/heard? Why do people constantly feel they have to be unpleasant? It beats me.

Thanks for that Pen, fingers crossed its true, whatever anyone says about Louis, he is a very good manager, I'll be waiting with bated breath for March.

Good news for G4 that they are going to release an album. Only a fool would have thought that they wouldnt get a deal.

Bad news for G4 that they are still stuck with Louis Walsh.

this is my favorite part of the whole thing though...

Good news penny about the album. It was obvious that they would be signed by either Sony or Decca as they appeal to a large audience and Sony would be very silly to let them sign to the competition after all the exposure they have had in the show. I am looking forward to a great album now.

Thanks for the info Penny - sounds very positive

Something to look forward to

I know what my children can buy me for Mother's Day

I think everyone knows it was just a matter of time before a record deal was confirmed - it might not be signed yet for legal reasons but sounds like its a deal anyway.

.....yeah Arty, pleased it`s Sony UK......they seem to be doing a great job in masterminding Lemar`s career. Louis also mentioned they would possibly be doing more in the way of opera and less pop-based. I think their album should be very diverse

I am being perfectly civil and have every right to pass comment! Why is it that every negative comment is taken as an offensive comment, when it is simply not the case and I was not making a derogatory comment about G4 in any case!

Its comments like the one quoted that ruins things, not me, making a perfectly polite, sensible assesment of things.

Really guys, you are out of order - I've deliberately not posted in your appreciation thread as per Beth's request, but I didnt think it applied to EVERY single thread you start about G4

I agree they seem to be doing a very good job with Lemar's career - lets hope they do the same for the G4 boys.

I would also love their first album to be very diverse.

....I think what jay was referring to was the way some posters deliberately set out to cause conflict by contradicting just for the sake of it - something that has been reported - however accurate that statement may be. Everyone is quite entitled to pass comment, that is why I started the thread. And of course the doubters will only believe it when their album is on the shelves. That is fine by me.

Sony/BMG are one and the same, they merge together after christmas, the deal was done months ago.

As I said in other threads, I wanted the bad feeling to go away. I'm not G4's biggest fan admitted, but I'm trying to avoid passing comment just for the sake of it now. If G4 make it and their album does well, then in the same way Steve won, G4 have also got public support.

I've read alot of positive things about them in the news - that cannot be denied and shouldnt - thankfully everyone has different music tastes!

Thats right penny, so Jay shouldnt be telling people to stay off the thread unless they like the artist.

First of all he dosent have the authority to be telling people what they should or shouldnt be doing.

Secondly, if people only posted in threads where they liked the artist, most threads would end up like team G4 ... a bunch of 13 year olds talking about jons magic flute.

You have your G4 appreciation thread, in which i have never posted.

That does not apply to the whole board.

I think that when Beth changed the name of the G4 team thread, So the G4 kids could chat in peace, some G4 fans seem to have got the impression that they can start ordering people on other threads not to post negative comments.

In my opinion people who tell other posters where they can and cant post, dont deserve to be posting on these boards themselves.
