Come on.. own up!
Just voted in the poll for who you want to win the XF and I noticed 10 votes for The Conway Sisters
In some odd way I can understand that people have voted for Chico but CS?? So come on, who voted for them and why? |

Well it certainly wasn't me Only poll I have voted them in is hopefully for the next to go.It's weird to be championing one of Simon's acts again this year. He has two groups left. One I believe to be the best in the competition this year out of who's left and the other the worst. Simon would do well to lose the Conway sisters at this stage of the competition so he can concentrate solely on JS ![]() Susan x |

I think I agree with Susan, I think tomorrows night performance from JS will either make them my firm favourites or I'll be back to being undecided again.. I'd love to see CS's voting figures, whether they have been tottering near the edge or flying through with loads of votes - tbh I wouldn't suprised if it isn't the latter as far as I am aware the the Irish are very patriotic with this sort of thing..

Maybe some people like them the most?, fair enough, its personal choice. everyone has different tastes.
I have enjoyed some of their performances, I think Marie has a great voice especially. Not my favs though, but not way down on my list. Bottom of my list is Nicolas, Journey South, Shayne and Chico. |

What is amazing me is that they are not in the bottom two week after week. Who the hell is voting for them? I can't see they would attract the Irish vote they are so dire, even patriotism wouldn't kick in. I don't know one single person, over all age groups and genders that like them

To be honest I thought at this stage if Chico was still there Simon would've lost all his groups bar Journey South.
I think JS and Nicholas are the only two that I could see putting music out there that people would actually want to buy, there are some good singers still left but I cant see them getting a good return on the £million contract |

I did
. I like them, I admit I wasn't able to watch last weeks show but I thought "you lift me up" was fantastic and was singing it all week. I don't really like Shane, I like Brenda and Andy, I find Chico amusing and entertaining, JS, Maria and Nicholas are O.K and I don't like Chenai. |

Ok, I didn't vote for them, as I want JS to win.
But, I must admit, I really like the Conways. They are not the best in this competition, but I think they sing really well together, and Marie has a brilliant voice. I've liked all their performances so far. Also, they seem like lovely girls, and I don't know, but when they perform, I smile, because they seem so happy. All of this is just my opinion, and as others have said, just because one person doesn't like them, it doesn't make it wrong that others do like them. The world would be a very dull place if we all liked the same things. |

I think I may have voted for them - I enjoy seeing them perform because it makes a change from watching the soloists. I like their harmonies.

I guess someone has to like them...me and Bonnie Tyler though we can't stand them and come the day of the Revolution they will be locked in a room with their own mangled version of Total Eclipse played on endless repeat to them until they BEG for mercy and can they please listen to Chico murder Livin' Luh Viduh Locuh instead.
