SAME DIFFERENCE TO WIN...

REJECTS

Rhydian WILL win. I still believe he's an arrogant fellow behind the scenes but we'll see what happens in a few years time.

Why do they always have to ruin it with the rejects?


Anyhow - poor series but one of the best finals as there is no clear winner at all - anyone of them really could win it.


Leon was the only one who benefited from the duets, Same Difference undoubtedly should benefit from the decision to market it as England vs Scotland vs Wales, while Rhydian has had the talent throughout.


I'm really not bothered who wins - I think Leon and Same Difference need it much more to have a chance of some sort of career - Rhydian should be fine whatever happens.

The problem with Same Difference - and to a lesser extent Leon - is marketing them. If kids TV was still around, Same Difference would have a good short term future, but I just can't see what they'll be doing really.

Well, I don't like Leon's version of When You Believe.

And... in with the key change and choir.

Not keen on the song at all - having one song which could end up being released by three quite different acts just doesn't work.


Anyhow - head to head Rhydian should be miles better than Leon, but on the other hand you'd think Leon is more likely to pick up votes from Same Difference fans.

It doesn't sound much better with Rhydian really! Think Leon actually did it better.

Leon's won it.

I preferred Leon's ... this is too close to call!

I'm voting for Leon.

I think that's true actually. Whether he's a good singer or not, he's got the full package really.

Leon won The X Factor!
