Fun, but getting repetitive by the third one. Making a ballad was fine, bit the 2nd and 3rd styles - 'breakthrough' and 'anthem' are not styles. Not a huge amount of difference in the way all three sounded and certainly not in the way they were put together. If they'd had 3 different producers with three very different styles of music, then the value of the series would have increased dramatically for me.

I did find myself agreeing with the song pushers opinions each time.

Having now watched it you may be right.
