| It's good. I like it, I hope he wins. They wouldn't know what to do next time and would most likely change the rules completely. The X Factor has run its course and ruined the music industry enough. Having said that none of these singers (not "artists" as most of them don't write a single song) will really be around that long I think. It's all very temporary. And most of them won't make it. Doubt Joe Mcelderry or Olly Murrs have longevity. Something that I think hasn't been reported in the UK press is the fact that Louis Walsh first wanted the Dutch female soul singer as his wild card but she refused to participate after being rejected the first time so Wagner really was a third choice here! I read a funny comment from someone saying that he reckoned the people who vote for Wagner are the people also voting for Widdecombe and who voted for the Liberal Democrats!
