Matt 1 million hits in 3 days. Wander Retchers 285K.

I honestly think he can get a song better suited to his voice. Can do better. A Bono song?

Where are the millions of girlies for the boy band? They will need em.

I'm struggling to think of someone who was getting most hits on youtube in the early or even the later weeks, going onto win one of these shows.

Joes hits were strong throughout

From week 7 he was miles ahead

ok A1, I'll take your word for that, but I bet he wasn't leading in the more hyped acts in the 1st few weeks.

I've only watched 2 XF and 2 AI's and Vickers was spanking everyone on youtube hits in the 1st one. Lambert the same in AI. I'm not sure there was a clear leader last year on XF? ..and in AI, the likes of Crystal, Siobhan and Andrew were way ahead of the winner Lee.

I just don't think they're a very good guide, because the youtube audience is very different to the audience of saturday night light entertainment shows.

Im sure it is a different audience Fll, but I  would have thought it would have favoured 1 Direction rather than Matt...

The fact that Matt is getting more than 3 times the hits should be a little disturbing for 1D backers imo

Not sure about A1.
He's very contemporary and appeals to those who like Coldplay and Keane who I'm sure have a massive number of hits.

It's not just kids on youtube. There are plenty of over 30's. A large proportion of those are men, who don't vote in these shows.

That's the interesting group to me, as I believe they pick the winner. Mary is also popular with that group. 1D can to win them over with a cheesy ballad or two and some cheesy grins, as can your guy A1, if, as you say in the other thread he does some more popular songs. Will Cowell let him though?
I wouldn't be taking 3.8 on the hope that he does.

Yeh, I'm not quite in that bracket yet, for a little while anyway.... Sad

Not sure about that female age group - not a tad to old to be the biggest voting demographic?

Worth remembering that last year the voting percentages singers got were all over the place for the first 6 shows, people changing their favourite weekly.

Joe's percentage was never top in the first 6 shows, then from show 7 (6 acts left) he was always in the lead.

Diana Vickers smashed the youtube hits and facebook stats, was never in contention to win, was 2.2 on here after Week 4 though.

If you listen to a hit a multiple times on Youtube does that count as 1 hit or the multiple times you've listened?

Youtube hits like twitter (mostly) is the way to ruin imo. Viewing demographics on youtube is new to me but could be very useful.

But Matt isn't quirky like Vickers, he isn't extreme like Lambert and he isn't big headed like Danyl. His boring quiet cardiganess has got staying power. I do not think he will slip up with any song. He keeps taking on the hard one's and impressing everytime. Funnily enough I was not over impressed this week I think he can do better. I also do not think he will have a bad week.


I suspect leona was miles ahead on hits everyweek. Another quiet one. BTW IMO she isn't that good a singer. I wouldn't pay to watch her.

Mind you Simon's ramp machine is awesome. Ie irresisitable to the dumb down millions happy for Simon to see for them, to fanatasise for them, to think for them, hear for them and to live their lives for them.

On the other hand Simon never loses and will back the obvious winner.

Cowell has already sussed there is no usa crossover act here and is looking to cash in on downloads each week.  Early signs are that Joe Mc ain't going to be no cash cow.
By:

Danyl was getting the most hits at this point last year - and look what happened to him!

Likewise Jamie Afro - even Olly was more popular than Joe on You Tube until well past the half way stage...

Treat these stats with caution I reckon...

If Simon lets Matt sing songs that suit him. Like this. Then matt wins.

Its Mercy by Duffy.

If Simon keeps giving him over falsettoed, unsuitable uncomfortable, high note contests then he will bore people and Simon will get his boy band.

Funnily enough he hits a note much higher than the "high C" in this. "Yes I doooooooow" 1.03

If Simon is as good at ramping and fixing as I fear he is then there is only one direction for the winners. In this case I hope four ego maniacs who entered the contest to be stars in there own right, and never wanted to be in a band, cannot cope with eachother.

He really isn't that good. He doens't have anything unique about him and there's a few better vocally than him as well.

Reports on DS about him being in gay porn as well. I'll leave you to check that one out though.
