Title: Savan Kotecha On X-Factor
Post by: Linda on October 18, 2010, 02:04:12 AM
Hey all

Savan Kotecha is working with this years X-factor - as the Contestant's Vocal coach!!

Which is pretty awesome!
I nearly had a fit when I seen him on tv.

Here is a video of him been interviewed with Brian friedman [Choreographer], some stylist lady and the contestant's families.

He is sitting on the left hand side of the host konnie.
He doesn't say much
but it's nice to see him :)

Thanks for posting. He seems really nice.

Speaking of x factor, did you see Katy Perry performing firework on the x factor... it was everything we feared. I would love to hear someone like Leona or Celine sing that song. But I'm sure she'll get better -- her first performances Teenage Dream weren't great (the leaked performance of her listening parties, anyone?) but now she sounds very nice.

Thanks Linda, it's great to see Savan there.

Jack, yeah, just watched Katy sing Firework, oh dear... but she looked beautiful. Why is she singing Firework? is that her new single? I thought she'd still be promoting Teenage Dream.

I thought she was going to perform Teenage dream too but then she came out with that.
The performance didn't do anything for me tbh.

I think the performance was quite poor, she sounded like some amateur singer tbh  :-\

She should have lipsync'd it lol
But honestly I'm not a big fan of the song either.
I think there is way better songs of that album that could do a way better job as the next single.

Thanks for sharing it with us, George! I love it, Savan seems to be very nice and funny. I love knowing the tecniques Max uses in his songwriting. ''Max Martin school of songwriting''. I wish this school were real!! Can you guys imagine? Let's all  of us enroll at this school.  :D We're gonna have music classes with Mr.Martin.  :D That would be one of the best schools I would ever be in!!  ;D
