Yes he has

fretmeister

My daughters both say he has.

Yes, his albums are both great. He’s a superstar who’s got a lot to give and will be here for a long time. 

SidNewton

He stopped Porcupine Tree getting to number 1 in the album charts. Burn the little fucker.

I kinda hate myself for saying this…..but we’ve got his CD on in the car as my Daughter loves him & his bloody wavy hair…..and the music ain’t too shabby either (but don’t tell my Daughter)

He or his writing team? I just assumed he was singing someone else's songs like the rest of thrm like a glorified karaoke singer?

I like the stuff I’ve heard. I think he was album of the week on Ken Bruce about a month ago. Some had a 70’s vibe and a nice groove.
I think it’s quite good when someone seems to go beyond the usual ‘talent show/boy band’ limitations and pushes their boundaries a little.

He has a co-writing credit on all his songs. None of them are a sole credit to him though, so what percentage of the input is his is uncertain, unless you know the details.

He's a lot more than a glorified karaoke singer though - the first two albums are very good, I haven't got the third one yet.

For what it's worth Elvis Presley didn't write his own songs, and most people wouldn't describe him as a karaoke singer. I also think Harry Styles may be a better actor than Elvis...

I'm happy to be proved wrong, I just cant get over the x factor start.

Imagine if you were judged on what you did as a 16 year old when you were 28...

Imagine being more successful at 16 than any of your critics have ever been, and build upon that success right the way through to your late twenties. 

Why do some people feel the need to pull others down?

 If he hadn't gone on X factor he could still be trying to make a go of it with White Eskimo.

What about the great band White Eskimo he was in and gigging with around Northwich before X factor?

He's clearly a cut above your average teen drafted into a pop band.
