there are three acts that i can see who have the potential to sell records and one act who could make it really big if they dont win the competition

i think the loosers always do better

Andy is extremely talented and could easily be a big seller along the lines of Michael Buble or Paul Anka. He could also be huge in Las Vegas.

Journey South also have a lot of talent and outside of a competition I expect they would be less nervous and could also do their own songs. They could be bigger than the Proclaimers (at their peak!) and Robson and Jerome, because they are so versatile and are also nice guys with cross-over appeal.

Brenda is also very talented, but I don't see her winning or being a big selling artist. She completes the talented trio, in my opinion.

Shayne is just average as a singer - a long way off Justin Timberlake quality - and Robbie Williams has more charisma in his middle finger! With Simon mentoring him, he would probably be better and make the most out of his abilities, but I think Daniel Beddingfield has more talent and he's only done so well with himself.

That leaves Chico, who is good fun but not even a great dancer let alone singer, and Conways, who I won't waste my breath on.

I agree, Maria could of been big hit. Shayne is a handsome young man though , big hit with the ladies. Andy is more my mum's cup of tea. Journey South are ok.Only thing with them is the geezer on the guitar, he seems a bit bewildered by it all.Quite like Brenda though as well.

Just admit it, you want it to be Chico Time

I think the only person left in the competition with "The XFactor" - the WHOLE package - is Shayne. Brenda has a great voice but she does not have the marketability same as Andy, Chico and Conways just can't sing and Journey South don't really stand out to me......

Michael Buble is Canandian I think.. i think he has already enjoyed success stateside and Paul Anka wrote "My Way" amongst others and I think he is very big in the US..

i can't honestly see Andy making it big especially in Las Vegas where they have so many great singers in his style to choose from. Andy has a great voice, but no magnetic charisma that is also needed for his style..

I agree with u Kelli, Conways cant sing, i didnt mention them earlier...oops . Its a bit debatable bout chico, i just look forward to him (not the singing hasten to add), he does put on a great performance, albeit a bit of a cringey one. Shayne has it all, i must admitxx

Micheal Buble......mmmmm (in dreamy state of ecstasy) he is sooooo talented. You are right MB is canadian. As for Andy, he performs well and it seems effortless to, i guess thats why it comes over as a bit dull sometimes, he does like to croon the oldies out, much to my mum's delight!!!

Conways can sing, but their voices are not as good as other acts and just don't sound quite right with the songs they have chosen to sing, they are not as professional as the other acts, and they are ery much on borrowed time indeed.

Bin Man Andy is awesome, and I am not typing that in an "american" way. I am not an especially big fan of that style of song but his voice and performances blow me away every week. He just seems so natural, he does not have to try very hard to sing so well and he really seems like he is enjoying performing...I think he can go far!!
