I despise X Factor with a pure passion. So I absolutely HAD to *promote this amazingly talented girl, who is frankly fucking wasted on this dross!

Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Tuesday, August 28th, 2012 12:32pm PDT - promote requested by alien_concept.

She was good. The horrendously manipulative music and editing overlaid on top of the whole thing is so painful.

Hang on... this gave the impression she was just someone who had never done this before.

But this aired just now, August 2012, and yet:

[Wikipedia]In July 2011 she was announced as the runner up of the Urban, Pop & Acoustic category of Live and Unsigned at the age of 20. In June 2012 she performed alongside Razorlight at Osfest at Oswestry Showground in Shropshire

Who said she'd never performed before? She wrote the song and can play the guitar... it's pretty much a given that she's performed before, right?

Well, except the last part where she says she never thought she could do that, and she's only ever had her friends and family say that she's good... kind of alludes to her never having performed in front of a crowd does it not? They certainly do their best to give the impression this is her first time doing anything.

Didn't even need to see the emotional end. She got into the song and it was an instant upvote. I seriously hope I can buy and download one of her songs some day.

You could have done - except there was a strong possibility she was going to beat "Little Mix" (last years winners) to number one this week. Following a swift rule change she was forced to pull the track from itunes - even though it's still showing at number 5 in the midweek charts.

As a bartender and as a patron, I lived this song and I hate myself for it, but love how candid it is. Total up vote.
