But well, oft it's more about the character and it's story than his/her/their talent. There are more examples of this than there are exceptions but I'll give you an obvious one:

hard to vote this away (well apparently hard enough anyway)

I thought the granddad lyrics were quite good. Can't expect boys to sound good until their voice breaks, unless they sing high pitched shit.

One of the three ladies in the house (buildinz mah haremz) is auditioning for the Dutch version with a dance group next week Thursday.

I rest my case.

Lyrics are ok though yeah, but performance is shyte.
[edit]well maybe not shyte, but it just doesnt cut it compared to other performances and it was just an example how ppl with a sorry story, old or young ppl, etc. - ppl with the awwww-factor in short, are judged more on the awww than on their actual performance.[/edit]

Your case is well rested.

But admittedly, he probably stole that voice from the closet he got out of. If only he were 18, we could have some fun.
Looks like a successor to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Colfer

Actually, WE could have some fun. Surely your gf isn't falling for it anymore after all this BGT stuff.

I'll pop up out of nowhere, and do both a necro and go off-topic in one go, how is that? :)

So here's the story: a guildy from my wow guild owns a record company. A few months ago he disappears saying he's got massively busy with promoting and recording a new artist he discovered.
Just the other day he post her name, and guess what - she also participated in the Voice of Holland. Which is pretty much the same as BGT, but with a slightly different format.

I'm curious what you guys think:
Voice of Holland audition, go to 0:45 to skip through the dutch babbling.

And: Live performance on a dutch radio station from last week (http://soundcloud.com/basta-music/538-15062011-edit-traveling?utm_source=soundcloud&utm_campaign=share&utm_medium=facebook&utm_content=http%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fbasta-music%2F538-15062011-edit-traveling) (click)

Her experience shows and as far as my lay ears can hear, her technique is very good.
Her voice though isnt really my taste. A bit too 'thin'. Tend to like 'darker' voices more, with more depth.
