X-Factor. No Joe-king.

So After all the furore about the British Christmas UK Number one....

After various 'Dirty-Tricks' by the 'powers that be' in the annals of the BBC, plus some Facebook idiots genius? Ruse to disrupt this years Christmas UK Number one record in protest at what exactly, I am not sure, not too bothered either, the outcome is that American 'Geriatrics' Rage Against The Machine ensure a few more 'minor' hit records on these shores (enabling them to buy more Wheelchairs, hearing aids and retirement homes in the Hamptons and Bournemouth, Gods Waiting Room, in England :)

So the UK version of the X-Factor saga for 2009, drags and putters out into total underwhelming humiliation for Simon Cowell. It certainly made for an interesting fight for this years Number 1 record. No one is bothered anymore!! Except the winner of the X-Factor.

Talking of Winners... Just a quick re-cap on previous 'winners' of the X-Factor.

2004. STEVE BROOKSTEIN.

Still to be seen basking in his 'literal' ten minutes of fame, now gigging in 'not so high end' restaurants, anywhere, for anything, including milk tokens. I would say he is a tosser, but that is not nice. So I will say he is a wanker instead. DOH!

2005. SHAYNE WARD.

Couple of so-so records, that promised much potential, that has so far yet to be converted into any 'significant' sales, unit wise. I feel that Mr. Ward may be dipping his seasonal candlestick too much amongst his many adoring female fans. Currently working on album number 3. Good luck Shayne.

2006. LEONA LEWIS.

Three years down the road and 7 MILLION WORLDWIDE record sales, Ms. Lewis goes from strength to strength. Although she could have done with some strength (or better still, SECURITY, when, during a recent book-signing in the UK a nutter took a left hook to Leonas Temple causing much laughter in the UK, and a 'slight-headache' for Leona)

She is huge. And going to get better too. I may accept marriage proposal, should she ask.

2007. LEON JACKSON.

>>>WHO IS Leon Jackson. EXACTLY. Move on >>>

2008. Alexandra Burke.

So having just signed a reported £3.5 MILLION record deal Stateside, I am sure that after a 'slow' start Ms. Burke will go from strength to strength and will be able to buy a shoe factory to replace the 'Broken-Heels' of her current Smash? Single. Promising.....

2009. JOE McELDERRY. 2009 Winner. X-Factor. Nice boy. Boring.

So he failed to reach number one, he only shifted 450, 000 units of his, actually pitiful song. But still it is not as pitiful as Rage Against The Machines.

Too early to tell if 'Not-Controversial-in-any-way' Joe will disappear back into obscurity. Somehow, I think he maybe OK as all the 'grannies' and Kiddywinkles love him.

So we await next years X-Factor, some of us with bated breath.... (Simon Cowell, try holding your breath till next year)

What will happen next year? Robbie Williams, Ex Take-That to join the judges? YOU BET!!
