The song is a year old now but it's a song by a past X factor contestant and I'm surprised the show hasn't marketed/promoted it much to get our attention. It is my believe that this contestant is currently with Cowells label.

It's an underground classic. I think it would ruin it if it became too well known.

Hey, 322k likes. Pretty good for for someone who isn't popular according to an element of posters on here.

I agree. There's a certain je ne sais quoi to it.

It's extremely nuanced, not for the hoi polloi. It's such a delicate track. It may sound like it lacks immediacy, but it pays dividends in its endurance and depth.

It's a great track but she needs another one.

Yeah but "Charlie bit my finger" has over 1 million likes

"Ain't Nobody Got Time For That" has 447k likes

I don't wanna see them more than once either

Just shows that this forum is so out of touch with the majority.

322k is HARDLY a majority

Little Mix shout out to my ex (Same Syco promotion scheme but out for less than 2 months) has over 1 million likes

That's a majority

In the grand scheme Fleur is barely a blip on the X factor radar

I don't know what majority you know or maybe it's because I'm in my 20s but the people I know, really don't know Fleur or any of the other venerated divas you talk about. If you were talking about The Weeknd, Drake, Justin Bieber, Frank Ocean, Sia etc I'd say fair enough, they've got a certain reputability and corresponding success.

I think Fleur is talented. She can definitely sing and she can dance very well too. She gets ripped a lot more than she should (you cause 90% on here). She was just overplayed, the Sax thing is funny. But I think her on her own, there's nothing wrong with. She's just seen as a one hit wonder to most people. Doesn't mean it's right, it just means that's her reputation.

If you reach for the noose every time someone disagrees with you on Fleur, you'll be hurting yourself.

tbh I could not give a toss what people think on this forum. Most of whom have no idea what good music is. Just saying.

Oh look another Fleur thread.

Shes a one hit wonder at the moment, shes due for release in next couple of months so whether that is a hit or not remains to be seen and yes she is very talented,

it doesnt matter how many likes she has shes got a platinum single and its sold over a million worldwide, so who cares.

Then probably stop coming on and arguing with people? Good music is subjective. That Jennifer Hudson song for me was horrendous. I don't want to listen to sassy divas telling me 'how it is' but that's just how I feel. Other people love it and I'm glad they enjoy it. Live and let live. And stop moaning. For heaven's sake. Find something else to do, take a shower. Play some Fleur East.

I'm glad I read some of the comments before clicking the link or I might just have lost my watching any Fleur video virginity

Yep. For all Cowells efforts to pimp her to the masses, she is a one hit wonder who isn't on the radar of the majority of the gbp.
I bet a lot of people who danced to Sax at the office party wouldn't have a clue who sang it and could pick Fleur out of a line up.
She has the makings of a decent pop star but unless she releases something decent very soon, she's another in the long line of XF 5 minute wonders

As per usual you have no idea what you are talking about.

That's your argument for everything though isn't it? I've lost count of the times you've rudely told me I have no idea about music and yet, when I've listed songs or artists I like, you've said how great they are so no wonder you aren't taken seriously by most on here.

Ha ha ha - You really are the rudest most deluded FM on here. Have you forgotten telling me how great my list of current favourite songs are recently?
Enjoy living in your own little bubble inside your own head where you're right all the time

Jefrefettdppadd, has three themes:

"They shoud have played Fleur/Fleur is gonna show all you haters/Fleur is successful/Fleur speaks to me in my dreams"

"You don't know music/You have bad taste"

"The X Factor is terrible/I don't watch it now/the episode that I just watched is terrible, but I don't watch anyway/Simon Cowell is doomed"

Agreed

Some people think these type of comments are personal or just Anti Fleur. I don't dislike her I just find her average and if it wasn't for Syco constantly pushing that song I'd forget about her within weeks

Absolutely agree and all but the one obsessive gets where we're all coming from.

yeah but fleur just isnt average musically speaking, shes got over 3 octaves in range, average is between 1 and 2, coz you dont like her voice you say its average but in muscial fact it isnt.

What happens with fleur next depends on alot of things but constantly going on and on about sax gets so boring, im so over that song now and it isnt even the best song on the album

Jeferteareatder translates every comment that is grounded in reality as an 'attack' or 'hater'. I just don't understand this. My favourite act right now might be maybe Alunageorge. If someone wrote a thread saying they're talentless, I just wouldn't care. Why would you? It's just words.
