I watched very little of the X-Factor and didn't hear much about this girl until the hype surrounding the release of her first single, "Bleeding Love."<br/><br/>Lewis has an incredible voice, nobody can deny her that. It's a crime though that the songs written for her on her debut album do not match her potential. What drew me to the album first was "Bleeding Love," a great pop tune that has shot to the top of the charts all around the world. However, when I listened to the rest of the album, I can't help but say I was disappointed. <br/><br/>Aside from a few standout tracks, such as "Take a Bow" and "Better in Time," most are sappy, trite, ballads that are very underwhelming. Most of the tracks sound very much alike, and musically - there aren't a whole lot of tracks on the album that could do well on their own. <br/>...

Unfortunately,  since the show began it's second season, it lost some of the charm it had in it's first season. Season one of House is like no other, the characters are great, the plots are fantastic. A must-see for any television fan!...
