or maybe not. Grin

Here are the mooted song choices...

Boys
Matt Terry
Wham! - I’m Your Man



Ryan Lawrie
The Beatles - Twist & Shout

Girls
Emily Middlemas
One Direction - What Makes You Beautiful

Sam Lavery
Girls Aloud - I’ll Stand By You

Overs
Honey G
Kris Kross - Jump

Saara Aalto
Girls Aloud - Sound of The Underground

Groups
5 After Midnight
Spice Girls - Say You'll Be There
Madcon / Little Mix - Beggin/Wings

Four of Diamonds
Wilson Phillips - Hold On


It's a bit of a mixed bag. I'm not sure I'd call The Beatles a boyband in the Westshoite meaning of the word. Grin

I do not want to see Honey G jumping Grin.
I think 4oD might do a reasonable jog of 'Hold On'.
I have visions of Elfish with a host of Elfish clones in a scary ott Girls Aloud version of the video.

(which, wierdly, I was telling ds , was number one the week he was born. Christmas 2002).

Off to a firework display, having only just warmed up from watching dd1 play football this morning. See y'all later, possibly a bit late.

Sound of the underground is the only GA song i like! They went downhill after that.. Just my opinion of course! ( and they are much richer than me ) ..
Sam should do well. Love Hold on, a fist clencher classic.

Enjoy the fireworks, going mad round here!

I love the actual bonfires, but it's rare we get near to it. The displays are good. But there are a lot around here. tbh, we don't really need to go outGrin

I do like fireworks, once the 5th is over i can think about Christmas.. But not actually do anything about it.
Robbie W is on this weekend, he was on Graham Norton today on radio 2. his wife was annoying, it was more the Ada Field interview!

Evening! I'm late as usual- we were watching a neighbour's firework display- they must have spent some serious money on them as they went on for at least 5 minutes.

Nicole looks gorgeous tonight.

I went to a wedding a few years ago, Andrew Ridgely was there. He was the most arrogant, horrible person. I was so disappointed.
