I am just here to try and keep some realism with things, i cannot stand clueless people purporting crap as fact because they're close minded.
I've seen zero realism in all of your posts. You don't even know how Auto-Tune works.

Oh this forum isn't pleasant, and the majority of those on it are not. It's petty propaganda from usually old women without anything better to do, unable to understand anything they don't like.
There a thread someone saying they cannot wait to go to a james arthur concert, it is filled with people who do not like james arthur. These same people do not like me pointing out their fantasy theories are petty and stem from being bored and spiteful, even though that's the truth.

You can 'discuss'(spew false crap based on nonsense hatred) 'dissect'(invent nonsense due to boredom) if you want, that's your choice.

The show doesn't effect me this forum doesn't effect me i do not care, i care about things that matter.
So why do you post on here if you don't care?

How many times can you contradict yourself in one post?

New to this forum but more than likely had his/her original profile blocked and set up the current one to continue the 'pleasantries', the tone of their comments suggests real defensiveness.
Yours on the other hand suggests real aggressiveness for some reason.

Btw, imho, James is musically excellent and the only one on the show with a serious future ahead of him.

I doubt any of this years acts will do that well. The voting is meant to be extremely low this year hence Chris getting this far. I really dont think people are passionate enough about the acts this year.

Oh ive been banned from here numerous times. Not a problem, before it was for defending tulisa, then jahmene now james. In the end it is an entertainment show i am not sure why people hate nice people because of it. Is my only issue. Internet is like a hub of negativity and viciousness. Only way you get heard is by being the same way, unfortunately.

We all like to defend our favourites, we've invested time following them each week and look forward to seeing what they do week after we week. Maybe you're just a little too blunt in your support? I like Chris (I want Jahmene to win) but I don't get all angried up when I see the huge thread someone started on him on week one and which has just kept on growing.

Yes there's lot of negativity online but there's also lots of positivity on this site, when Jade got the boot (unfortunately) there was loads of support for her on this site and people felt for her.

To quote Madge, "Music makes the people come together".

Remarks like this, 'Get a grip or avoid the James threads please', coupled with sarcasm and the apparent default position that 'newbs' are probably PBUs.

Get a grip or avoid the James threads please, you're a total Stan. If loads of people on here all saw and heard the same thing we're entitled to discuss it. You keep mentioning 'boredom' throughout your posts. I'd argue that you're the bored person trotting out the same moan over and over.
This^^^ Not everyone likes James, get over it

Whatever the technology used, it was used in the right way to enhance the best arrangement of the night. Twice now I have had the shivers from this guy's rearrangements and I am not even a fan. I can not say this of others I've rooted for. Now this says something about James abilities and I have to acknowledge he has grown on me, albeit slowly. If his album is as good as some of his performances, then I am obviously intrigued enough to buy it. Believe me I and my friends are very fussy about composition. He strikes me he knows what he is doing.

Last night his last performance was shiver-filled and I pray his album will be one of those albums that you play and can not decide which track is the best. You know the ones.... but they are few and far between. I rather he did one knock out album in the next couple of years than the form-u-lack ones Loo or Cowell have in mind.

Haha. I am not angry i just cannot get my head around the great difference between views here and elsewhere.
Eloquently getting my point across is not one of my strong points.

I have no idea what the technical term is but James' last song was clearly processed with a lot of echo or something. Ultimately, I reckon it was still him predominantly singing "live" and the processing was nothing out of step from the kind of effects I'd expect any artist to occasionally use in a concert performance.

Totally and utterly agree

I don't dislike James. I just feel that the amount of effects and echo used on his track last night was, in the context of a singing competition, unfair. I'd even go so far as to say that it constituted cheating. Put anyone in a very echoey space and their voice will sound ten times better. I don't think Jame's natural voice, whilst pleasant, is anywhere near as powerful or resonant as the track implied.
