I'm Left Speechless!!



I started posting sometime towards the end of 2009 about two brothers who were finalists on the most recent season of X-Factor. They were a pain in Simon's arse but a core to the high ratings. They stuck around till Top 6, I think.

Anyhow if you had been watching the videos I had posted, you would be aware that the brothers were not taking the competition seriously at all. They didn't sing all that good, but they were great performers. Very confident! Somewhat charismatic! A little loud-mouthed! But hey, that's just about every 17 year old boy out there!

Jedward released their first official video today. A cover of the Queens song, Under Pressure, in collaboration with David Bowie. They did it with a mash-up of Ice Ice Baby by the American rapper, Vanilla Ice. The song was ridiculous, but insanely funny. This song got to be their first single, and over here is the official video. Jedward is rocking it out. They got their own video out even before there was any news of the winner's, Joe McElderry, album production. And it's doing well commercially speaking.

Does this mean you do not have to win the show to become a successful recording artist?

Hi Saadi,

I've never seen X Factor. I'm assuming that's the British version of Idol but those guys do seem interesting. Also, Daughtry is an example of someone who didn't win Idol. Along with Jennifer Hudson and a few others. Thanks for the video.
