How can Chrissy be too old when even GRANDPA FUNKY is on board?Originally Posted by RobotBoy
I think you're just TOO OLD for them.
SPOKEN as though this is a BAD THING!
I don't know. Like PP said I think you have to have been following them from go to really get how REMARKABLE this whole thing is because they were SHIT to begin with (truly - if you think some of these performances are bad, please don't even watch the early ones) and looked overwhelmingly likely to disappear by week 3 and be forgotten forever.

Nothing to see here MOVE ALONG.
Chrissy is EVEN OLDER than Master Funks.
Top up, Sue?
Jade's finger snap was disappointing tonight
”Go around, we're recreating a faux pas'”
Time to PENSION HIM OFF.
I'd heard that this series was a SHIT SHOW and them winning seems to confirm JUST THAT.
At least your avatar makes sense now.
Christian, you're SO funny.
I WILL GET REAL GRIMEY. I WILL START CUTTIN' UP CLOTHES.
I can see you've read Cwej's Book of Assumptions.
to be fair, they're nowhere NEAR perfect vocalists, but they don't HAVE to be to make you love them.
for a band to be thrown together at bootcamp and improve THAT MUCH in 4 months is actually fucking FANTASTIC.
now that the show is over they can start to properly work on making everything much tighter.
I surrender to every word you whisper
This is probably ENTIRELY TRUE -I think you're just TOO OLD for them.
I look forward to telling my nieces and nephews about the GOLDEN YEARS OF POP (i.e. Culture Club, Wham! and Bananarama) over Christmas dinner to their MASS DISINTEREST.

I wanted to be up do date but NOTHING beats the original!
I surrender to every word you whisper
Could anyone stomach a LM PERF RATE? There's about a million after that final.
”Go around, we're recreating a faux pas'”
I'm sensing a JOURNEY - which in itself is really quite CHILLING.
Which is a fair cop guv. Though of course DAME BRIAN would have incorporated that same PERSPEX STAIRCASE into every performance and therefore elevated it to utter genius (i.e. churned out the SAME OLD TAT).SPOKEN as though this is a BAD THING!
Oh well, good luck to them and ALL THAT. Another unexportable UK girlband ready for the SCRAP HEAP in NO TIME FLAT.
THE STATISTICS!

I mysteriously got 25 copies posted to me anonymously ONLY LAST WEEK.
NEW THREAD
”Go around, we're recreating a faux pas'”
It certainly was, and them winning was the only good thing about the whole sorry mess!
I actually think that all things considered it's been a good series. Better than the last two.
Much better series than last year's, massively helped by a much better final and winner this year. Last year's final in comparison was utterly mind-numbing. Terrible duets.
Won't somebody out there hear my SOS...
Anything to clear a bit of space in the hall cupboard.
THIS THREAD IS BEING MOVED TO MOOPY GOLD IMMEDIATELY
apart from the utter SHITSTORM in the first three pages where you all seriously needed to take a RUNNING JUMP off the nearest CLIFF, moopy eventually hit its stride and told a fantastically hilarious story about the biggest TV event of the year
oh and the Christian geg-in at the end and Agnetha's reaction is just
moopy <3
I'm rather annoyed. I fell asleep during one of the many ad breaks just before Coldplay came on and missed the result. When I woke p I had to rewind the live TV but could already see who had won
Then you missed this:
My Top 5 moments of last night's show
1 Little Mix VOXSTORY
2 Kitty Brucknell - The Edge of Glory ENOUGH SAID
3 Tulisa's dress
4 Kelly clearly not GIVING A FUCK!
5 Craig having put on MORE WEIGHT than the pregnant one in 2 Shoes!
FEARLESS FEMALE
I had a severe laughing fit last night at the pictures of Jesy from the final
the frog jump at the start of DLG is just TOO TOO MUCH
F'ing awful. A bunch of slappers ruining an indie classic which was covered earlier by someone else in the series at audition brilliantly.
They only won cos of Tulisa going on and bluddy on saying we need another girl band, we DON'T!!. A bunch of failed bootcampers who can't sing for sh*t so need massive speakers with a backing track and fancy visuals to make it look good. Misha would have won if it was not for that chav of a judge stirring sh*t about her.
Am glad N-Dubz greatest hits failed. Typical X-Factor money maker of a compilation, it's too early in their career to release that and wouldn't have been if she was not on FIX-Factor.
I hope this happens to their career........
1) Single goes in at #1 (got no choice like it or not, this will happen and will sell in 6 figure sums), but has poor first week sales for a winners single.
2) Next single goes top 5, but drops out fast, selling 25 percent of "Cannonball"
3) Release an album that goes in at #3 and only goes Gold
4) Next single goes in at #94
5) DROPPED!!! and vanish off the face of the earth like Joe, Leon and Steve before them.
At least the last attempt to bring girl bands back to the charts (The Pipettes) actually wrote their own songs and had their own backing band who played their own instruments.
The winners of this series sums up how much it's popularity and quality is deservingly waning.

Fetch me the chill pills.....
REAL MUSIC
Sorry DARLING but we don't like our girl bands playing REAL MUSIC around here!
FEARLESS FEMALE
The Pipettes are about 8 years old!!!
WHO ARE THE PIPETTES? Like 21st Century Girls?
I actually think Top 5 performing second single would benefit them, when you're never "on top" it's hard for the press to knock you and it certainly helped Girls Aloud. The press couldn't knock them because they never really got the number ones in the first place.
”Go around, we're recreating a faux pas'”
Exactly
We do not need another Lady Gaga style scenario for Little Mix
FEARLESS FEMALE
oh look someone else using the "popularity waning" story to have a moan!
nothing like skimming over blurred TABLOID HEADLINES to make a point is there?
The show is NOT UNPOPULAR. It is as BIG AS IT EVER WAS. How many MORE TIMES CAN IT BE SAID?
Christian I find your brand of humour particularly unsavoury...it's just like an old queen propped up in a bar
I didn't think, I just posted
Who are the sodding Pipettes?
exactly.
See, I like The Pipettes but 12th Monkey can fuck RIGHT OFF.
The Pipettes were so MANUFACTURED it was unreal. Didn't their line up change like PER SONG?
Top up, Sue?
I was going to say, I'm sure they have NO remaining original members - but it's OKAY because their BAND plays the DRUMS and the TRIANGLE!
Pretty much. I haven't really kept up with them following "We Are The Pipettes." I feel there has been an absurd number of line-up changes though.

The Pipettes were less REAL than THE SATURDAYS.
