Scott James - X Factor

Tonight on X Factor, we saw Scott James. aged 21 who has Asperger's Syndrome, wow the judges with his performance of Raise Me Up by Westlife. Scott had a fear of people and did not leave his house for 7 years until he was helped to persue his dream of singing.





Scott is an inspiration to us all. After posting this video on the Asperger's Awareness page earlier tonight, we recieved 100 comments in a hour and they are still pouring in. I hope you enjoy this video and support Scott through his journey on The X Factor.

Favourite song that I have heard this year...

This is 'Pretty Buildings' by People In Planes. I have mentioned this band in my earlier posts. They are from Porthcawl in South Wales, and I went to watch them back in March when they supported Funeral For A Friend. This is my favourite song this year and I thought I would pass it on to you. Enjoy!

It has been a bad day...

From laying flowers for a friend, to welcoming newborns into this cruel world. Here is a list of songs on my mind right now
