Eoghan Quigg - X Factor 2008

Eoghan Quigg has revealed that he is “not sad” that the X Factor tour is finished and hopes he will now have some more time to work on his song writing skills.

The teenager told The Daily Star: “I’m not sad it’s finished.

“I write songs whenever I’m bored but the show didn’t inspire me to write anything.”

He probably could have done with the inspiration given that his debut album, due for release next week, is full of cheesy covers and one original song which you can hear here. He told the newspaper: “If it sells well then I’ll probably do a second album and I’ll co-write it all.

“There are a few songs that I’ve written already but nothing special yet. I’m coming up with new stuff every day.”
