Elated to see him back. The show needs a good rock singer. I hope he makes it further this year.

doesn't he have one yet? anyway good luck to joseph!!

Excellent vocalist. He is the real deal.

Liked him last year but really like him this year, my current favourite

Shame he's getting slated on the MF. I don't think he was put through over the fact he bought his son in.

They say he's shouting - rock singers may sound like that but I don't think it is. Joseph seems like he's been trained in the field.

he still got the notes though!!


then there'll be the vocal coaches to teach more techniques

Saw him in the preview for tomorrow night - he performs rock guitar on stage! Look forward to that.

Look forward to seeing him tonight.

He should do well in the competition on just his looks alone !!.

I think he sounded good tonight. Shame most of it was cut.

Any other appreciators here?

He's in judges houses!

Have to agree that he has to work on his lower range though.

He needs to watch his attitude - that was unnecessary.

He tried to defend himself on Twitter at least.

Any other appreciators?

Bump for tonight.

Guess I'm alone here.

You're not alone I like his him as well but im put off by the spoliers

Hope he gets through.

What!?

for some reason i thought they're going to let him through

but he took it much better than what last week suggested...

I think he'll be a wild-card.

If there is a wildcard - but I think it'll just be one from each category. I don't think they could do 16 contestants in 135 minutes.

Only just come across this thread - thought there would be more activity here!

Gutted that he's not through to the lives but I saw on Facebook that Joseph has an album out now, think it came out at midnight so seems like he's moved on from it all. This is the link to what I think is his official Facebook page with details of the album, gigs etc - https://www.facebook.com/joewhelanmu...ocation=stream.

Just downloaded but won't get chance to listen until later. Anyone else going to buy?

We'll need to keep this active.

His album seems to be doing well #6 in the rock chart and #48 in the itunes chart.

His album is absolutely fantastic, would thoroughly recommend it
