He really lets the whole setup down. Rihanna really gets into the performance, look at the way she looks at him, she lives the lyrics, she lives the song. He,..he sings the words, thats it
The chemistry from Rihanna is seemless, Matt spoils the whole story with a "im singing the words" not im part of the story
Rihahnna`s performace, incredible, Matt...... destroyed a beautifull thing sadlly
You had a once in a lifetime oppertunity Matt, had all week to get it right, and trash it !
I can't believe finalist's videos of the 2010 UK show get so many dislikes, nearly all of them were perfect. trust me, if you saw X-factor 2011 Hungary, you would really appreciate these amazing singers.
@hollywooddreams12 who gives a fuck about hungary??? that country is like justin biebers penis... it shouldn't be there..
fact is that compared to the other series before and 2011-2012 that show was fixed as fucking shit and basically people took out their hate of the show on the contestants as well as the judges
Matt had full blown flu, throat infection, chest infection when he sang this and he still did his best with it. Love it when he bites his thumb, thinking 'blimey, she's hot'. Such charisma from both of them and such chemistry. Great one Matt.
@alexi297 A yank what the !!!! is that. Thats PI!! POOR. Are you from the 1800 century. I haven't heard that term used in the last two centuries. That term was used during the Civil War of 1861-1865. All you wouldn't know that after all your not an American.
@TheLloydA1 "A yank" isn't a real word as some people may like to call Americans but a slang derogatory comment used today for Americans who happen to be about 80% family members of your ancestors. Yes I known what country my ancestory came from and I wouldn't disrespect them as "pinoykanaba" is doing because if it wasn't for them wanting freedom I wouldn't be here. A yank is a term used by soldiers of the south on the north that were fighting slavery brought here by our ancestors. We won!
@lmm3181 Yes all that said, Yank is a commonly used word. 'Americans who happen to be about 80% family members of your ancestors' could you expand on that please. Slavery not being the only reason but was the main reason, it was lucky that slavery was repugnant to the moral sensibilities of most people in Britain, which had abolished slavery in its Empire in the 1830s. Otherwise Britain may of got involved in the civil war.
@TheLloydA1 What I am refering to regarding ancestory is that 80% percent of us in American can trace our ancestory back to Great Britain. We meaning most Americans and people from Great Britain are family seperated by an ocean. So as much as I understand the importance of family to the People of Great Britain, I would think we would be treated the same. I have never had anything bad to say about Great Britain because I consider them family and founders of the principles we hold dear.
@lmm3181 Well ive never been to America and have never spoken to one in person,so i also have nothing bad to say about America. I have some distant family that live in America that live in Oregon state i think. Its a shame that more Americans and British thought the same that we are family seperated by an ocean.
@TheLloydA1 I agree I wish more thought that way about family. I have been around a lot of military personnel from Great Britain, Australia, New Zealand while serving in the military in the deserts of the middle east and I find them to be just as friendly as those I have met anywhere. I have also traced my family roots back to England and Scotland so I will always consider them family even if I don't know them all. I would not be where I am today if it wasn't for their sacrafices.
@alexi297 wow, seriously??? I'm american and i know she's from barbados. i knw that from the beginning. i have an international mind and have lived abroad. and we're not fuckin yanks. hate that shit.
@pinoykanaba why? She's not American LOL she's the music ambassor of Her Homeland Barbados. You can't be an ambassor for another country and not be a citizen.
@r3nge4kiIIs You don't need to start cursing because I give my opinion. I never asked for your thought of my opinion and if you feel bothered about it that's you're problem, not mine.
For the first minute and a half of this...he sounds like he's in some serious pain!? And then she comes on (with her non-talent) and then its fun for us all! YAy!
seriously guys the only reason he ''sounds'' terrible is because he is singing with one of the biggest artist in the world with an amazingly strong voice your comparing them!
@lucyksmiley actually, no, the reason he sounds 'terrible' is because he had a throat infection throughout the last two week period. listen to his actual music (not x factor), the guy can sing. end of.
thats my dream right there, if i was dancing with her i would have got a boner, and i would have made the point of showing her the effect she had on me the sexy bitch
his voice sounds so weak in comparison to everyone else. i wish he would stop trying to sing all these awful high female songs... :/ maybe he should do justin timberlake or something.
His other performances have been flawless, His voice and range is absolutely incredibly. I'm pretty sure he was incredibly nervous here. It's Rihanna, I mean come on.
somoene hearing Matt for the first time today he fits right in with high mediocre, not good nor great. Comparing him with Rebecca we have to give it to those tiny lil teens who he will be their fantasy and they are the ones that vote. Rebecca has the most distinctive voice of any contender i have ever heard...in 2 seconds of listening to her, i was wowed a young Aretha, no yelling over the top, the sophisticated lyrically clear Aretha. Thats what we need now in music, sophistication and class
@nippy2 You are full of it! The little tweens love one direction not matt and how can her voice be that distinctive if you thought she sounded like a young aretha ????
@kamikazee523 - Absolutely, in singing women always have the higher pitched natural vocal range over men trust I'm doing vocal training right now and I can reach a womens low C on my chest register and a female high C on my head I'm trying to train my falsetto.
