Would they win? I think half the appeal is down to their looks.

what do you think?

Of course. Its a whole package.

Amazingly talented + stunning looks = World Class Winners

In the music business, image is vital to succeed and that is the harsh truth. How many unconventional acts are out there? None. Anyone who doesn't fit the mould is considered a novelty act. Unfortunate but true.

Nope, there's no way. Escala's looks are definitely part of the appeal!

Of course not. They are exactly the same as Bond. Hardly original.

If The Beatles were fat, middle aged and bald would they have made it big?

In all honesty, no. That is what gives Escala the edge - youthful, pretty, photogenic. These, as well as other vital things, are important, and is the full package. If it was just a bunch of old men or women doing the same stuff, it wouldn't be getting the same reception. It would only be pleasing a small audience, not a big one. With younger people, there is sure to be mass appeal, which is what the music industry is about.

Yeah part of the appeal is definitely down to their looks, although no one can deny they are extremely talented.

It's about the whole package, same could be said for the rest of the acts.

If it was gorgeous young men doing the same act it would still work.

Great musicians, young and sexy performance - definitely the whole package - if they didn't do the showing off their figures with confidence it wouldn't be the same.

They really are great to watch. Musicians sitting down in a big bunch playing the same thing - no wouldn't work.

No I can picture it now, a bunch of old men with bald heads being buzzed off after about ten seconds with Simon leaving his seat to press them if no one else did.

Their legs do it for me.

I don't think they are that talented. I know a lot of string quartets that can play Live and Let Die and Palladio

Two of the girls aren't good looking either.

i hate to tell you all, but only 1 if escala is pretty

another is average and 2 look like horses.

ok i am being ultra critical, but they are not the pretty young things everyone is making them out to be.

Let's face it, most of the public don't know whether they are brilliant at playing their instruments or mediocre! Who are they comparing them to?

Do the concentrated smiles on their faces remind anyone else of the Stepford Wives when they play?.. mean i know

Apparently some group called Bond.

Google them and then use it against Escala- its what most people have done
