Daniel Evans had perhaps been living a charmed life in X Factor 2008. A few weeks running, he had been quoted as odds on to go out, but somehow managed to scrape through. As the weeks went by though, the competition just got tougher and tougher and inevitably, he was unable to hold on.
This was one of those performances where I liked it, but not sure if was for the correct reasons. It's Not Unusual is a forgiving song if done badly because it always will bring in a slight comedy element.
To be fair to Daniel, he did improve over the weeks, but now was probably the right time to go. When he landed in the bottom two with the powerful Rachel Hylton, there was only ever going to be one result.
In the Sing off, Daniel sang Bridge over Troubled Water. It was pleasant, but not over sparkling of future X Factor stardom.
Hat's off to Daniel for lasting as long as he did, and for coming back uneffected each week despite the continued dire summings up from Louis Walsh. Hopefully the X Factor can give him the platform to go on to do other things.
