Well 20,000 think they do! The new series started this weekend with a new audition format. Whether or not I like the new format I’m not too sure just yet. I do miss the old style where the judges would be more honest and there wouldn’t be a bad backing track. It feels too much like Britain’s Got Talent and a few times you could see the Cowell go for his buzzer then realising it was the wrong show.
The best performance by far was that of Danyl as in the (hopefully) video above. He’s a teacher so of course he’s good as all teachers are great *unbiased face of course*. But of course, its the first episode…. he wont be the best audition so far because the laws of the ‘lets-make-a-one-time-chart-topper-TV-Reality-Show’ state that the best audition ever is one reserved for the last one of the show (check with Danyl), secondly after a really bad one where the main judge threatens to pack it in (again check with Danyl) and finally that its the last audition of the auditon process (not check with Danyl). Therefore I’d put money on the winner still to be shown on telly.
So if you would go audition, what would you do?! What song would you sing and how would you stand out? Its obvious blue gorillas and chicken hats do nothing for the judges though. But the question is how do they get through THREE rounds of producer auditions before they even see the judges while some maybe decent but not great singers don’t even get past the first runner? Oh well… the law s of the ‘lets-make-a-one-time-chart-topper-TV-Reality-Show’ state that there must be a quota per audition show between the good, the bad and the ugly.
By the way, the likely hood is that I’ll be on twitter during X Factor so why not follow?! @JonnyMWright if you were wondering *shameless plug face*
RIGHT! I’d better pack some more and sort the car out…. meant to do that yesterday…. bye!
