Craig Colton - The X Factor 2011 auditions

[ytcarol]

It's an appealing voice but not perfect... he is slightly off tune here and there. Doesn't anyone else hear that? I do think he can get on top of that though.

[mrsnienkelover]

Gary Barlow from Take That. Yeah he's yummi.

[Octavice]

He's such a fucking douche. Talented yes. But a douche.

[TheRhyysss]

@Octavice do you know that guy well enough/personally to be a 'douche' or did you watch this audition, realise he can probably sing 10x better than you, got a bit of fame and are a bit jealous?

[Octavice]

@TheRhyysss No I just compared him to the other contestants.

[tabzy108]

[donoose]

The girl next to his parents reminds me of Janet Devlin

[libbyrock123]

@donoose I thought it was her! LOL

[EvilYakuza]

I thought it was a bit painful how they're all trying to avoid how he looks.. like 'We're looking for a recording voice, you got that' 'you blew everyone away.. with your voice' xD

[Eurotarded]

@EvilYakuza lolololol ^

[anonymoususerlol]

AMAZING HE IS LIKE EFFORTLESSLY GOOD.

[MrHennie281]

WOW, Adele is echt top, maar deze uitvoering........ Dit komt echt uit zijn tenen. Ik ben een fan van deze vrolijke gozer, wat een stem. Craig, wow, i love your voice. I buy your cd!

[nogoodwolf]

He should have won! I'm his biggest fan in Canada. There's no doubt that I'll be watching for his music to be sold. Thank you Craig Colton for giving us the pleasure of listening to your voice!

I absolutely adore this boy!!!! He can sing, he's charming, and he's funny without even trying. That's the X factor all over!!!!!!

[Kizillia]

I love Craig but let's be honest, he never topped this and Jar of Hearts, that was his problem, he peaked too early.

[cuffleboy111]

2:35 for the start of the song.

[LucyyEllen]

@Lil22Lou cause everyone was cheering and waving at them. so they waved back.

[LucyyEllen]

I really hope he records this some day.

[meeryxoou]

[AndreasHaugen]

Wow...



[amatjulio86]

what the title of this song??

[LucyyEllen]

@amatjulio86 Adele - Hiding My Heart Away

[kenkenka]

@LucyyEllen Actually it's not originally from Adele but Brandi Carlile. Adele did a really great job but I still prefer the original version. :)

[cutiemooboo]

[SaraBeeLyes]

Craig: ' dad, whatda du?' ROFL

[MultiUnknown2]

"Wen't Well"

[TheTheoldgit]

Simply COOL!

[ELASILKOSJE]

he's cute haha

[wwetnaguru123]

as bent as a 9 bob note

[lexprimo]

He's not a roarer,that and the fact Gary never really chose the right knockout song for his voice mean't the best singer on X factor 2011 never actually won,but if any producers have any sense,he'll be a recording artist.

[Alexispelling]

Hes cool and all but this wasn't an audition for Glee

[kjtg24]

nailed it!



[ohitsyousophie]

What does his dad do?

[EpicDiversityDude]

'Mum just deep breath you'll be okay' OMG LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

[Nicky808080808]

X Factor is fixed. I have stopped wasting my time watching the crap. Misha B(ully) still in the competition? Judges sucking her ass? Ye shes fixed to win. Phone calls should be investigated. How much is the X Factor earning from calls? Confirmed stats for each singer? Seems like whoever the judges seems to not favor keeps leaving? really are the public as stupid as the judges? or is X Factor fixed?

Fixed I say.

5million dollars singing contract in America? Aint that abit too much? Fixed.

[oOTheSilenceOo]

@Nicky808080808 how much of a fool do you look now ey.... thinking your a know it all... saying its fixed.. stick to your day job scrounging mess

[lozyac]

the 23 dislikes are those who diddnt get through boot camp

[mada87mada]

DOAMNE CAT POATE SA FIE DE AMUZANT

[jonihughes]

shouldn't have gone. louis screwed him over by sending it to the public vote; cunt.

[guddy62]

@jonihughes just saw your comments today cos had to see Craig again lol and i said exactly the same thing at the time he,s a fucking arseole (louis)that is i hate him for what he did.

[davehale69]

They changed the way he sings! He had such a unique recording voice at this audition

[Zaneoo7]

Genuinely sad he wont be hitting our screens every Saturday, hopefully this will be a big platform for him to go on and become the Star he deserves to be.

[weavertivvyfan1]

hes a really funny guy and a great singer he so should have won

[michaelidesca]

This audition made me cry. Craig is awesome.

[soyanagawa]

He is awesome....... he's god a beautiful voice, great control, and his attitude really nice. Great job dude

[Kluska92r]

What's the name of song ?

[dawnyljk]

when he tells his mom to deep breath he reminds me of peter kay lol

[adelin682]

i'm so sad he's out of the competition, cuz he was my absolut favourite and now i am just watching all of his performances cuz i allready miss him.

I just hope he would make it anyway cuz it would just be a waste of talent.

And one more thing to all the people in the crowd who voted for Amelia :

I hope ur happy, u just ruined X Factor for me !!

[patjoe69]

after watching craig on this morning i wouldn't be surprised if gary does sign him up and i don't think this is the last we will hear of craig.

[EMYrecords]

Dad lick's the biscuits and I stick them together :)  No really a very good voice !

[xXBEANYXx1]

biggest fix he should still be init :( 

[beckylaws]

awww i miss him already :(

[cuffleboy111]

Craig is an absoulute amazing singer, personally I thought he deserved to win. But what really annoyed me, was not the fact that he went, was the hypocricty that louis Walsh showed. Louis said that he has a "recording voice", "an amazing singer" yet a singer who was booted out 4 weeks ago, came back and caused him to leave.

This just prooves my point, that the X factor as a whole, not just this season is a complete fast and fix.

I hope I speak for the nation.

[elainewhickman]

I didn't vote but I wish I had - he is great! Such a shame he is gone. Hope we see more of him.

[katie100waitie]

why did he have to leave? :(

[SophieLouiseClarke1]

he shouldn't off gone!!! :(

[britturk123]

As soon as the sun story broke, i knew he would lose votes though for me personaly i found his voice boring.

[patjoe69]

well i did warn you. if you don't vote they will be in the bottom 2. i voted for craig and i was hopeing everyone else was going to as well. louie walsh annoyed me as well he never does the right thing, he should have voted for amelia to go because craig was in there longer and the better singer, and also louie told craig at the audition that he had a recording singing voice. louie walsh should go. i hope craig gets a recording contract. lots of love issy

[legend1637]

@patjoe69 i fuckin agree mate louis walsh has no brain they should now do lose u re singers in then judges go out fu louis

[legend1637]

@patjoe69 u got my thumbs up

[patjoe69]

well i did warn you. if you don't vote they will be in the bottom 2. i voted for craig and i was hopeing everyone else was going to as well. louie walsh annoyed me as well he never does the right thing, he should have voted for amelia to go because craig was in there longer and the better singer, and also louie told craig at the audition that he had a recording singing voice. louie walsh should go.

[laurakeane513]

this is one of my favourite xfactor auditions ever!!

[ilovemarcusxfactor]

is that Janet Devlin sitting next to Craig's parents??!!

[MichalSaromiYT]

@ilovemarcusxfactor

lol no xD similar i must say but its defo not janet :P

[thewholeshebangers]

Have a look please thewholeshebangs.blogspot.com

[themrduragss]

Craig was old school

[JustaGirl95x]

Not going to lie.. I about cried when i found out craig was gay :(

[tht4hj]

@JustaGirl95x LOL... Actually I want to marry him :B

[popazz1]

Well,after tonight's Bore-Factor I can believe anything.I'm not saying Amelia was the 'worst' singer in the sing-off,she absolutely wasn't.But neither of them should've been in the bottom two.Gary's stupid comment about her shouting her song was just crap.And Craig has been consistently 'up there'.Such a shame people still seem to think they don't need to vote for a popular singer.And now we've got Janet Devlin still in it.Where's the sense? Gonna be voting for Marcus all the way now.

[JamesGameplay]

He didnt deserve to go :'(

[Gonzoidzz]

Louis is a total joke, who is trying to kid Amelia is a ready made popstar. More to do with his feud with Gary.

[pritchy1000]

fair play, i was not expecting that!

[NottinghamForest22]

fat version of justin bieber.

[dickie1066]

@NottinghamForest22 yes, though i doubt he'll be fathering any illegitimate kids....

[jo0987654able]

@NottinghamForest22 grow up

[0504Charlotte]

i want him to win hes LOVELY!<3

[patjoe69]

now that my fave sami has gone craig is my next fave and i been voting for him since sami left now that it is down to the last 6 we have got to stick together and vote for craig we do not want him in the bottom 2 . lots of love issy

[danielparkinson78]

[mattyy101]
