James Arthur, what are the chances?

What are the chances James Arthur will play? Ive been a bit obsessed with him and hes fantastic. Xfactor acts are not my usual thing but this guy is brilliant.

This isnt a sarcastic post.

I very much doubt it have they ever had an X factor person before ?

Will young was pop idol

i'd say James Arthur is pretty likely. I'm interested to see what his own songs will sound like as some of the covers were brilliant

Olly Murs, Cher Lloyd and Aiden Grimshaw have done it before sure a few others have too

[Funkyfairy!]

Well ask and it shall happen - Mr Arthur will indeed be there (may even sneak off to see him myself ) ** guilty pleasure **

[Pothuthic]

I won't be at James Arthur, I'd rather have Cher Lloyd again.

It really bugs me that the X Factor brush tars so badly. This guy is exceptionally talented as a musician, a writer and a vocalist. If he hadn't come through the X Factor process I doubt the comments would be the same.. he's hardly Olly Murs.. I'm looking forward to him.

If he's that talented, why not go the normal way? Even if you're the most talented musician in the world, with the most brilliant voice, you deserve everything you get if you go through a show/contest like that.

So you really think it's as simple as, just being good enough, to get a career in the music industry?

I appreciate what you're saying, it perhaps is a bit of a cop out to go via that route, but let's be honest - people don't spend their time calling X Factor acts 'cop outs' - they are immediately referred to as being 'shit'.

I just don't agree with whatever equation has linked 'made it on reality tv' to 'shit'

[Pothuthic]

I love x factor, but James is shit

[king_oxymoron]

Haha well that opinion is valid... same way I feel about Rebecca Ferguson!
