I'm gonna stay eighteen forever

So we can stay like this forever

And we'll never miss a party

cause we keep them going constantly

And we'll never have to listen

to anyone about anything

cause it's all been done and it's all been said

we're the coolest kids and we take what we can get

Donkeyboy was one of my fave albums of 2009...

Now I know ScandiPop English can be hard to grasp, but as much as I love the adorable, and now out Joe McElderry, why does it seem like X factor completely didn't get the irony in these lyrics...

That seems like a very depressing video to sell a song. Of course I guess it hasn't been much of a hit for him, so perhaps the very depressing angle was what he should have gone with.

I think that woman's voice suits the song better than Joe's. I think he would be better off going more in an Erasure direction -- she's a little more Pet Shop Boys.

Well it was number one across Scandinavia--but they did do a different version for the UK (total flop)

Do you think Joe's album will flop? I wasn't a big fan during X Factor but I admit all the media about what a nice guy he is has swayed me--his album is about half good.

I think just about anyone from a talent show seems destined to less and less success, unless they are well taken care of, which is rare. They don't seem to care about Joe at all. The show only cares about controversy and stunts -- they're more interested in Cheryl Cole's career than in any of the contestants. Saddling Joe with that poor Christmas single was a sign.

So far his new single hasn't done all that well, I don't think.

    • MVJ seems to be cognizant that Leslie and Eva are true breakouts for this show:

    • Yesterdays episode was a great lead in the fireworks for today.  It is a shame that Naomi and Jacob are not there and Nicole's best friend Vanessa and Doug.I am interested to see the fallout from this.  I do think that Eva is Ted and Nicole's daughter.
    • Okay, I hear ya. But, you know Josh Griffith on one Thursday night fired 7 or 8 writers in one fell swoop! That totally blew my mind. But, I still think this is bunk. And, no, the show is not that bad! Literally, my only problem with it, as a fan, is that I think it could be great & it's just not. It's good, not great. They still are not on top of pacing. They routinely take too long to tell stories. But, one example, the scenes this week with Lulu & Laura were like old time soap come home!
    • Ok nevermind, Wolf is in Marian's getup on the Jan 9th episode. Lucy wakes up at the lighthouse and it's now Marian, drinking tea, and sounding like an old British woman a la Mrs. Doubtfire

       Wolf is actually doing a good job as Brett, but I don't think they made him look like a believable Marian - its too clown/drag, but also creepier - and Wolf has a large nose they couldn't hide. I guess at this point, it didn't matter since she was unhinged and revealing him/herself anyway.
    • This is the *new* Rachel Black who just started airing on DAYS 4/25/2025, but of course with the ginormous tape-to-airdate gap on DAYS, she'll be airing on DAYS for months to come. And yet now she'll be new ex-Rachel. LOL.
    • As someone who cut ties with the show a little while after Chris Van Etten came back, I can’t talk on what the show is like now… is the show that bad? But even as a rumour, that’s pretty wild and radical. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of that before.
    • Yes, I know JK is getting on in years, but perhaps he and his family (wife and/or son) could work with him as co-headwriters on the new TEON! I would also be available as a story consultant!

    • It's too bad they didn't see it through. Alan and Van could have married for all the wrong reasons and ended up caring for each other, with Ross in the wings and possibly Rita, too, to cause trouble. Rita was a LITTLE BIT of a schemer. She was kind of the Nola of her era, without the goofy personality. She deliberately went after Ed because she thought he would give her the lifestyle she wanted. She could do malicious things, i.e. cooly seduce Evie's crush (who was played by Jordan Clark, btw) and string him along until she was sure she had Ed. While Rita claimed to be deeply in love with Alan at the time she departed, part of the attraction for her was his money and power. As well as sharing aspects of Nola's character, she was also a more subtle version of Reva-she grew up poor and always wanted more than she had.
    • I'm not that surprised, in just the little we've seen of her she's been a complete natural. Even better than a handful of the adults.
