The Voice UK (BBC1)

do people reallyl like this show? Normaly i'll watch any xfactor type crap, but I can't stand The Voice. It's SO DULL and irritating. And how is it even just about 'the voice' anymore anywhere - it's clearly hugely dependent on image & looks even if it started off as just 'the voice'

I found it very dull last night, I have to admit. I wasn't really watching, just had it on in the background.
 
The only one of these shows I've ever truly liked was Fame Academy. And that was barely anything like these, really.

But it is something I end up having on in the background every week, for whatever reason. (Will.i.am being the main one.)
 
A friend loved the US version so I've given it a go (don't really watch x factor or strictly or talent).

I'm watching eurovision next week.
 
The only good thing about this week's show was that it made me look 'somebody that I used to know' on YouTube, I heard that song before and loved it, but thanks to last night's show I finally put a face to the song...

 
Danny picked the wrong one. Should have been Curly from Leek. That Max is an annoying prick.

The child disgraced himself somewhat with his sulky strop. Do they not get coached in believable magnanimity and dignity?
 
oh dear, aleks - it doesn't play well... bratty behaviour. no excuse.

i thought dickface would choose twinkly david over dull max too. never mind. jaz or ruth will win the thing anyway, so this is all a diversion.

I knew he'd choose Max. He's a clueless twat.

That Aleks hasn't done himself any favours. But the judges weren't justified in saying he didn't have a great voice. He does. What he doesn't have is a huge range. But then that isn't the measure of greatness. I'm not putting him in the same category at all, but Billie Holiday had a range even narrower than mine - she could only cover just over an octave - but she was one of the greatest singers of the 20th Century. In fact, she was one of the greatest musicians of the 20th Century.
 
Simon Cowell was in some tabloid or other moaning that The Voice is just copying the X Factor. No mention at all of Pop Idol, the show which X Factor ripped off.
