Just twelve months ago, Andy Abraham was an ordinary guy, working as a binman on the streets of London. Now, he is truly living the rags to riches story as today, he appeared on This Morning to announce the release of his first album entitled “The Impossible Dream” and also his debut single which will be released on Monday.
Says Andy: “I’m living the impossible dream and it’s been a long time coming”
He admits that the change in his fortune was all down to his wife who forged his signature, ensuring that his application form reached the hands of the X Factor judges. “I am on cloud fifty-eight, cloud nine has been passed a long time ago.” “I hope the demand for my album is good and strong and I just want to go out and perform it.”
If you think you can sing and fancy your chances as the next X Factor winner (or even if you can’t sing and just want to strut your funky stuff on the show), then there are only around 7 days left for you to fill in and post off that all important application form to make sure it gets there on time.
Any application forms received after 17 March 2006 will not be considered for X Factor 2006 series 3, so get your skates on!
X Factor 2006 application form
Ever wondered what happened to Journey South who came third as runners up in X Factor 2005?
It would appear that Simon has been backing them all the way. After having signed a record deal with Syco Music (owned by Simon Cowell), the Journey South lads have been working hard recording songs such as “Let It Be“, “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” and “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” and they are now set to release their album entitled “Journey South” just in time for Mothers Day on 20 March 2006. The album also includes two original songs writen by the boys and approved by Simon.
It’s official. Chico has pushed Madonna off the top of the charts to claim the number one position for “It’s Chico Time”. He also managed to beat the Pussycat Dolls to the top of the charts, with their new release entering the charts at number two.
Not bad for an ex goat herder/stripper who was once told by Simon Cowell on The X Factor that his performance “was so awful that it was good!”
Chico fans will now have to wait and see if this is just a one hit wonder or if there is yet more to come.
