That is In your opinion.
I prefer Leon's voice to Rhydian's anyday, but that Is my opinion.
In fact it is people like you who are not doing Rhydian any favours at all.

Rhydian is by far the more superior singer, no doubt about it.

This makes me feel more sad...Leon is not even in Rhydian's league.

Like I said before It is all down to taste, I don't like Rhydian's voice, In fact he sang off key a few times and lost the main note at the end with Katherine Jenkins. I find him a cold performer and I would rather watch someone like Leon.
I am not going to change my opinion and Neither are Rhydian fans and I respect that
Just be careful that you don't turn neutral people against Rhydian with Leon bashing because I am sure that was eventually detrimental to Gareth Gates career when his fans did this in pop Idol 1.
I might not like Rhydians voice but the guy deserves better fans.

Well that is interesting because I would prefer to listen to rhydian sing all day than to listen to Leonsvoice which does not please my ear at all. Each to their own.

The voting public made their decision on saturday and thats what counts and as a result one is in "hiding" and one is going to be number 1.

I can see its okay for you to call Rhydian a cold performer.

I was not bashing Leon whatever that means. I could say the same about some of Leon fans… he deserves better fans… you don’t sound very nice, so I won’t be talking to you again.

It does sort of highlight the difference in their voices.

Bit OT, but i happened on this video while browsing just now - Producers stitch up Rhydian. Might've been posted already. Made me laugh, anyway.

I listened to it the other day but was a bit annoyed because Rhydian kept drowning out Leon's vocal. For the sake of impartiality I tried listening to Rhydian's version on his own afterwards but had to turn it off halfway through . It was just too damn worthy for my liking.

Happy Christmas to you to

One is not in hiding, he's performing live in Cardiff right now as we speak

Also have you ever thought that he has been advised to keep out of the media this past week so as not to detract from Leon's win by being all over the media talking about the phone inquiry

I actually liked Leon's version better than Rhydian's before I heard this. Makes you wonder doesn't it.

It's quite funny - but for people who say that Rhydian is note perfect, he was flat as a pancake on that last note

Might be an idea to watch them seperately and then make your judgement. It wasn't designed to be a duet between them.

No it wasn't, but hearing both together lets you really compare each of their vocals, and theres no doubt that Leon comes off sounding far worse in the video.

it's all a matter of personal opinion and for me it's the other way round, I liked quite of few of Rhydian's performances so I'm by no means anti-Rhydian, just much preferred Leon's version of this song.

I can't understand why people can't just accept it's all a matter of personal taste, their voices are completely different styles, neither is better than the other.

If you stuck Lou Reed with Rhydian Lou would come off worst in a straight competition for hitting high notes. There's more to singing than that. Rhydian's version sounded as though it had come out of a musical, Leon's was more pop.

If he'd been all over the media giving interviews they would just have been asking him about the whole phone scandal and Leon fans would be complaining that he was detracting from Leon's win.

When he announces his record deal officially I'm sure he'll be all over the place.

Rhydian is very predictable, imo, he doesn't surprise. It's almost as if there is nothing there inside, he's too methodical/clinical/unimaginative...imo. Yes, he has a strong voice, and can easily dominate the younger untrained Leon, but he has had 7 years of opera training. He should stick to opera and musicals, imo.

Fair point, Rhydian did hit a few bum notes (including the note at the end of the duet with KJ) but here's thing - I could count on the fingers of one hand the number of bum notes Rhydian hit in the series - and wouldn't need to use my thumb. Wish I could say the same for Leon
Sometimes I have liked Leon's voice but on this occasion Rhydian's voice is much better to listen to on the winners single IMO
Reality Sucks said Leon's version is more pop but Rhydian's version sounds more musical/west end or something, its all a matter of personal taste, nicely put
