So, you're saying there's only one valid opinion on the subject? That's not how opinions work.
You can say the sun looks green, or that a ferrari sounds like a hair dryer that doesn't make it true. It just means you have bad judgement on that particular subject.

I fail to see what comparison you're attempting to make.

Whether they were good or bad is not a fact, it's all a matter of personal opinion and taste. It's not a fact they were great, it's not a fact they were crap.

I thought they were decent, but given most of the other acts tonight, that means a lot.

I liked the luminites. I accept that they may not be to everyones taste, but its a bit harsh to claim they were "crap".

I agree , might not be everybody taste , but can't deny they are talented musicians .

to say they where crap is harsh

But those things are facts, not opinions. There is no such thing as a right or wrong opinion....

You should listen to the Bee Gees version (they wrote it), anyone who things luminshites version is better needs a lobotomy - flat emotionless drivel compared to emotional tender and touching

I thought that they were much better in their previous audition. I really thought they were good then.
But tonight I thought that they were competent enough, but just too bland for my liking.

They're very talented, but I felt like tonight they just didn't impress me like they did before. They just seemed generic and bland compared to the last time that they were on.

I wasn't at all impressed with them either - distinctly average IMO.

Agree. Simon sees pound signs but I didn't think they were that great. Best of a poor batch tonight though.

Attention seeking thread.
Are you too important to just put 'Luminites were crap' in the pinned discussion?

Twitter isn't the be all and end all of judging how much someone is liked - the Luminites got through on public vote tonight which costs money, so I would say that mattered more, no?

I didn't rate them either. A good song ruined. I wouldn't even have had them in the top three.

Even I'm not a fan, but I did think they delivered a great performance tonight and deserve a place in the final.

they won simply because everyone else was pretty dire in comparison to the standard of the last 2 semis
