I found him a slightly bizarre pop star. He had no star quality whatsoever and always looked so awkward

Saw Conor as part of the Fusion Festival in Birmingham and even though I knew very little of him before hand I found he was a great performer live and the crowd definitely enjoyed his set. Elyar Fox was last years event and he also was great but I think most ppl only knew one of his tracks. Doesn't help that most of his videos on Youtube are cover versions

He toured heavily and successfully with both albums and did masses of festivals too. Believe me he has a big live following and can pull it off live I am told by teenagers of my acquaintance. Not my cup of tea but never judge an act til you've seen them live.
Oh I know, I'm a big fan of Conor, I still listen to the album regularly and I saw him twice, he's a fantastic performer and he is a genuinely funny guy, he is written off a lot for being 'the next Bieber' but honestly he's a lot better than Bieber ever was.

I never got it with him. His music was like nails down a blackboard and he looks like a premature foetus.

When you're a "big fan" and you make such claims, it's hard to take them seriously as they're biased.

Yes I'm a big fan, but it doesn't mean that my opinion is invalid or biased, IMO I extremely disliked R U Crazy, it really wasn't good, I may be a fan, but I'm not deluded.

The only song of his I had time for was 'Animal'- I liked that one. But he looked underage & like something out of A Bug's Life.

Justin beiber was cute, conor looks strange. Has Elyar fox dissapered too? Capital pushed him as one of 2013 breakout popstars....but he flopped
Was just thinking of him - these guys tend to come and go.....

Seems to be an influx of boy bands at the moment, and there isn't room for all of them in the charts
