You're hearing Labrinth more than Tinie? That's very odd. Tinie's song has been literally unavoidable for weeks (and it's not even out for a few more weeks!) while I've only heard LTSS 4 times on the radio and have never seen the video (it does have a video right?)

 

Tinie will beat Lab even if Lab gets an X Factor performance IMO...

 

I think that's the only realistic chance of a non-X Factor song beating one that's performed on the Sunday it's released. POSSIBLY Kings of Leon but only if Joe's song is truly dire and recognised as such, however I think if "Radioactive" is performed on the show it'll be like Leona and BEP last year all over again. However, I think Cowell's too cynical to risk that and invite them on, so they may have to settle for top 3 :(

KOL would refuse an invitation to go on the X Factor, 99% certain.

I've heard Tinies' new track once. I've heard Labrinths about 20. :lol: For different people it's differing amounts that they will hear these tracks. :P

If Simon Cowell offered them a large sum of money KOL probably would. I don't think they'd ever mentor the contestants though like Jon Bon Jovi did last year.

That's true. It depends on what radio stations you listen to. I listen to Galaxy, which playlisted Let the Sun Shine really early. Both songs are playlisted now, so I hear them roughly equally. If you listen to Heart, you'll never hear either. :lol:

 

Also, some people are just too stubborn to go on X Factor, unless they're payed a ridiculous amount.

Yeah kings of leon are very snobby and arogant. Dont think they'd even be asked. (this is coming from a fan of their music, there just not great individuals).

Don't think some people are stubborn - x factor, in general, is associated with a reality tv show - and for some acts it's $hite to perform on something like that.

I mean what do you expect from this year's performers: JLS (again), Cheryl Tweedy (miming and prancing), maybe Alexandra (again), Joe Mc and the rest of reality pseudo-stars.

Lots of confident artists like Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Britney Spears, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Michael Buble, Take That, Miley Cyrus, Black Eyed Peas, etc. perform on the show, but there's just a lot of artists that are too timid and too afraid of looking "manufactured" to go on the show. Also, sometimes some artists are very anti-X Factor, and they're worried they'll seem hypocritical if they accept an invite to perform.

 

Basically, some people, like the Black Eyed Peas and Lady Gaga are confident in their own abilities, and don't feel threatened by the show.

20th September: Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are

27th September: Tinie Tempah - Written In The Stars (Labrinth No.2)

4th October: Cee Lo Green - F*** You (Robbie & Gary No.2)

11th October: This week i think will be close but if Rob and Gary perform on Xfactor they may just about clinch the No.1 Spot with Joe at No.2.

18th October: The Wanted - Heart Vacancy (Joe No.2)

25th October: Cheryl Cole - Promise This (B.O.B No.2)

1st November: Nadine - Insatiable (Cheryl No.2) I'm still not 100% about this going to No.1

8th November: Tinchy Stryder & Taio Cruz - Second Chance (Rihanna No.2)

15th November: JLS - Love you More (Rihanna No.2)

22nd November: Duffy - Well Well Well (JLS?)

 

That's My Prediction for the moment, I think it will be a struggle for any act to make it two weeks like it was this time last year although thanks to massive sales Cheryl managed a 2 week run, on the plus we could see some very high single sales in the top ten over the coming months.
