Yes, I saw that interview too....seems that a great guy, with a real passion for music, and as you say he is the kind of person the show should be about.

I think he is a real natural talent who is still developing, and as such I feel/hope that he will get better and better as the show progresses....*fingers crossed*

Kool, I'll join.

congrats to leon!!

Happy Leon's through, but thoroughly PO by some of the other decisions so far!

Still, it's wonderful that there is at least one talented act to look forward to when the live shows start

awww im soooo glad he's through

He has got my support and vote

Yep I'm routing for him too.

Good guy!

So happy that Leon got through. I cant have been the only one who felt a little emotional when his bottom lip started trembling.

I like this guy a lot. He is immensly likeable. I hope he does well in the show.

No, mine started round about the same time. I think Leon has immense potential - I hope he is helped to realize that potential.

Leon to win (and bumping this back up to page 1 )

Oh im loving this thread!

Leon has been my fav since the auditions! Hope he oes well..hes deffo got my vote!

Lovely to see a local guy doing well!

I expect he will get a lot of support. My only worries with him are his confidence and nerves as he has only ever sung in his local pub before and my other concern would be with his songchoices. In his profile it states that he is a fan of Michael Buble and Jamie Cullum and friends say he is fantastic at singing Paulo Nutini songs but I get the impression that Danni may foist upon him totally unsuitable songs with Andy getting the lions share of the ballads and Rydian going the G4 route with his song selections. Hopefully we might get a clue this Saturday on ITV2 with the Xtra Factor show.

I hope he doesnt get bland songs all the time - he has potential

I think that Leon is absolutely gorgeous! And I really wish that I could make him smile properly. He hardly ever seems to smile. I love him so much!

i'll be supporting him, hes local and well none of the others jump out at me

I am amused at the fact that this thread started off about the wrong Leon entirely.
I think Leon will get a makeover before the live shows begin. Nothing too drastic but he can look even better than he does now.

LOl...I didn't realise that...how funny!


yes, a nice subtle makeover would be good for him, but his overall image is good already, so nothing dramatic required...

Nothing too drastic I agree but I keep wanting to cut those little sideburns that he has. Little bit of styling overhaul wont hurt either.

Just noticed that Leon has his first hate thread. lol.
At least he is getting noticed.

Come to my thread people - you know you want to

Only kidding. I didn't use the word hate either - I accept it's each to their own (unlike some).

I noticed that too, and someone is already starting with the Scottish vote thing like last year with the MacDonalds, I will be voting Leon and I'm not Scottish. He's been my fave from the start, lovely boy and I'm really pleased he made it through.

Leon is great! I can't decide if he is the best yet though!
