X Factor winner Matt Cardle has praised his former X Factor buddies One Direction for doing such a fantastic job since they appeared on the show. Matt also praised Savan Kotecha, who wrote the One Direction son What Makes You Beautiful and he even tipped the One Direction boys to walk away with the Brit Award for Best Single.
Cardle explained, "I think One Direction will get the Best Single award because of their fans. I think they have an incredible following and they're so strong and loyal that anything they put their mind to, they can make it happen for the guys. I want to take my hat off to Savan Kotecha for writing What Makes You Beautiful, because that is like pop perfection. The first time you hear it you're like, 'Well that's a number one!' I love it and I think they're brilliant."
Matt Cardle has released his new single Amazing, which is available to download now. The single has been released as a part of the latest Matt Cardle four track EP. You can see whether or not One Direction do manage to walk away with the Best Single award, when the Brit Awards take place tomorrow, live from the O2 Arena in London.
