Because (all IMO of course) he is a crap pub singer and has used his sob story throughout the comp + would not be in the finals without it. That ok?

Have you actually listened to him Jenny or are you just following what others say?

He is a really good singer and he's been performing really well lately.

i think he seems like a lovely guy and may not be the best singer but that hasnt stopped others remaining in.

No, i've not listened to him at all. I don't watch the auditions or live shows, or X Factor videos. I just come on here and pick a name and say they are rubbish.

How on earth? I said I didn't like his singing, then you asked me if I'd actually listened to him? Was that a joke or did you genuinely believe I'd not listened to the guy sing before?

The thought had crossed my mind and it was simply a question you could have asnswered yes or no to.

I'm not a fan of him, but I admit he's got a really good voice.
I just don't like his image.
I thought he was great live a couple of days ago, just being himself singing Hero with the other 3.

He can't sing

Doesnt deserve to be there now

Didn't deserve to make top 12

He got saved in the botom two over someone MUCH better.

Because if your old enough to go into a pub you`ll know that there are hundreds of Daniels strutting their stuff every Saturday night.......he`s a very good Karaoke singer...and thats it.

How bizarre. I wouldn't have criticised somebody's voice if I hadn't heard them sing before.

I don't really care about people's image on X Factor tbh, I don't think his voice is strong enough to be on a show like this, and I get very bored listening to his performances.

That said, personality-wise he seems nice. But that's not enough IMO to be on the X Factor.

Because Jenny no one is going to take you seriously when you state that Daniel is a crap pub singer, because honestly he isn't as good as the rest of the finalists but he is not a CRAP singer.

I don't like Daniel's performances, I don't like his voice.

What I like less though are people constantly acting as if because they don't like him, no one else should, or that their opinion counts more than the people keeping him in.

I think the image is just as important as it gives an impression of the singer as well.
If you don't like what you see, you're probably not going to listen to it either.
And I'm not talking about being 'beauty queen', I mean that it has to match the person.

But to answer the OP, I think everyone picks on most here.
More picking than praising I've noticed.

Ok, I think he is very average. I don't enjoy listening to him. I'm not the first person to say this...

I think he has an average voice. There are stronger voices in the competition but the style he has doesn't help him much either.. I don't think he has a particular listener he could target through his style of singing, so I think he would stuggle if he was given a recording contract.

I think some of the judges comments are a bit out of order.. but I can't say I've witnessed anyone 'picking on' Daniel. All I've heard is criticism.

I think its fair enough that people criticise the contestant's voices, however when it gets personal it's not nice. I don't think there's too much of that aimed at Daniel though. I'd say there's way more directed at Rachel. (I say that as a non-fan)

I think Daniel is Great and doesnt deserve all that has been said about him he does have feelings you know?

He has a lot better voice than alot of people who have been on X-Factor over the years Leon for one

And i am 42 so yes i am old enough to go to the pub and i would be quite happy to go down there and hear Daniel singing.....Simon wanted him out last night as he knew it was the last chance he had cos next week its down to the public vote only which is what it should be from week 1
and they was scared the public would keep him in....

I am sure Daniel would of made Simon a hell of alot more money than Leon has made him Leon isnt even a good pub singer

He went out gracefully and he did a very good performance.
He should be nothing but proud and i'm sure they'll love him on the X Factor live shows.

I liked his voice tbh, but his sob story annoyed me. He also didn't really have a target audience, so I'm not sure how successful he would have been as a winner. Hopefully he keeps singing if it makes him happy though, I thought he really improved throughout the competition so he obviously got something from it and didn't go out having achieved nothing.

I thought all the judges made it clear that they really liked him and wished him well and Dermot clearly loved him - I thought Daniel got a good send-off and accepted it all with grace - whatever he does in life and career, he is always going to be liked as a person - I think he'll do fine.

Any sarky comments on this forum are not likely to burst his happy bubble.
