1 simple reason.
No comic relief singers/acts, not even in the beginning of the contest. There are no joke acts that come out just so everyone can have a good laugh.
For that reason (possibly for that reason alone) it will never be as good as The X-Factor.
that's what makes it good though. x factor just exploits people so we can all laugh at them. the voice just looks for the talent.
sharewait... you laugh at them but at the same time concede that it is exploitation?
shareyes...
shareExploitation:the action or fact of treating someone unfairly in order to benefit from their work.
Are they really treated unfairly? And surely they volunteer to put themselves in that position, they are not forced or coersed. I'm not sure exploitation is the right description imo, however I will admit to laughing at their ineptitude and delusional goals.
Keef, trying to make sense out of chaos!
you are a hypocrite; though u admit it so I guess that goes a little way to letting u off the hook

To me it's like comparing apples to oranges. The aim of the X Factor is to create a popstar who can sell records. It's based more on the performance aspects as a whole and marketability and that would include stage presence, dancers etc which is why entertaining performers like Wagner, Chico and Jedward get so far cause they are good performers and the public can be entertrained. At the end they get a contract with Simon's label and get their first album etc.
The Voice is about finding an artist. It's a lot more about the learning process. The contestants work in a joint collberative effort with their coaches in order to determine their own style and sound and the kind of album they will make. A lot of the contestants actually write their own songs and have been in the industry for a while whether it's been at singing for holiday camps or even professional gigs. Music is their lives and even if they get booted out they have the experience and exposur to keep them from fading into the dark.
Xfactor is about taking someone who lives an ordinary life ie working as a painter or receptionist the everyday person, and giving them an oppertunity to have everything they dreamed of.
They are both good in their own right their objectives are just slightly different.
beauty freedom love truth
