December 25, 201510 yr Christmas #1 of 2011 Military Wives with Gareth Malone Wherever You Are 0hR6O7VxKaQ
December 25, 201510 yr the originals of most of the xf songs are great but they sing it so mechanically and with zero guts, they really suck the life out of the song That's the problem. All the songs get the same arrangement, making them all sound the same.
December 25, 201510 yr I was happy when this got #1, one of the best charity songs for me - a lot better than that Gary Barlow spiel the following year. Plus it beat an awful cover of Cannonball.
December 25, 201510 yr how did Matt C beat One Direction in the show!!!!§!!!!! The same way that Ben Haenow beat Fleur, Joe beat Olly etc. The voters are different people to those who buy music.
December 25, 201510 yr Im also happy Little Mix didn't get to #1, I like them but their cover is awful compared to the original... 5vpQnm6eUXo
December 25, 201510 yr Christmas #1 of 2012 The Justice Collective He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother 2h8loYnNlZA
December 25, 201510 yr This is where I switch off! X Factor winners singles are certainly not the most original of songs, but at least they are tolerable. Military Wives and Justice Collective are just crap. I can't see many people choosing to actually still listen to these or keep them on their ipod/music playlist.
December 25, 201510 yr That Military Wives thing isn't quite as bad as I remember. :o Better than any winner's single anyway, at least it has a vague essence of Christmas about it.
December 25, 201510 yr Probably one of the worst charity tracks to reach #1, some of the acts sound off key, I just love the original by the Hollies.
December 25, 201510 yr I do love Wherever You Are - an example of a great choir record, beautiful, original and sentimental. So weird to hear it on Radio 1 again!
December 25, 201510 yr this sounds pretty good now, I kinda remember it was worst... maybe it's cos it's a great song, love the Hollies original
December 25, 201510 yr this is horrible. I've only heard it once before now, and that was more than enough.
December 25, 201510 yr The worst Series ever then. I don't mind this song mind (and I DO prefer it to Demi's original).. *runs for my life*
