Only one of them (Andrew) could really have gone on The X Factor based upon their type of music. I think people who sing classical music deserve to have one of the TV talent shows give them the opportunity to show off their talent.

i only liked three singers in the auditions and that was charlie, per diem and Faryl!
Although i do think of the three faryl is the only one that deserved to make the final based on her semi final.

I liked Diva Las Vegas' comment tonight:

"If it's all about the singing go to X Factor"

Amanda: "No I think we have enough judges on that show"

It hadn't registered with me that there were only 3 singers. Nice work. One of them will win though.

The only act you could really call "Variety" is Kate & Gin and you can't make a career out of Variety acts, can you?

I liked this too. The singer from Diva las Vegas was very correct in saying this! A talent contest isn't just a singing contest!

To be blunt, yes but nobody's going to get rich from variety these days. If they did then I'm sure the likes of Craig Harper wouldn't have to take this route either. His first audition had me in stitches but sadly it's all downhill once you've seen the best of it.

Same as any damn chorister the country wide. He stops singing and when it's settled goes back and sings a broken part.

I agree.

Hope Cowell's reading...

Indeed, it's double standards and I guess a clever 13 year old would be looking at this kind of site to read reactions to his chances.

He's so going to love reading that isn't he? Lay off the fat kid jibes, his self-esteem is low enough.

Classically trained singers have appeared on X Factor (G4 and Rhydian Roberts)

I don't mind Faryl and Andrew Johnson in the final as they sing a different style of music and are under the X Factor's age of 14 but Andrew Muir i think should have auditioned for X Factor, really he's had a easy ride on this show, just having to sing twice to get to a final!

I know they want the show to be open to everyone but it just seems unfair on X Factor auditionees. If i was thinking of trying singing on one of these shows i'd go on Britain's Got Talent, you get the same recognition without the months of bootcamp and live weekly shows.

It's about time that changed again.

If a show like this goes halfway to getting variety back on TV, instead of just singers (particularly when we have to be subjected to some American using any show possible to plug their latest pile of pants) and the endless stream of cheap to make, no talent required reality shows, then it will be worth it as much as giving someone the chance to perform at the Royal Variety Performance.

Andrew is a better singer than Faryl. About equal in terms of the voice being appealing but Andrew has a better sense of expression. Admittedly, there are strong reasons why Andrew shouldn't win.

Only three singing acts. Hmm. Not too bad I guess - I'd prefer it if there was none
Faryl and andrew do have truly beautiful voices, but Andrews voice will break within a few years, not gonna get him anywhere xDDD
Andrew Muir... Singing plumber. Loved him, although his voice is kinda...Fake? It's like he puts on alot of it, still love him though. Think he's great.
Really glad there are dancing acts.
George, Nemesis, Cheeky Monkeys, Signiture? That it? I can't remember. They're all great. This final is gonna be amazzzze. George 2 win!
