So here are the song choices

Saara Aalto
No More Tears (Enough is Enough)



Honey G
Stayin’ Alive

Emily Middlemas
Wishing on a Star

Sam Lavery
I Will Survive

Ryan Lawrie
Play That Funky Music

Matt Terry
Best of My Love

5 After Midnight
Boogie Wonderland


I was right with my prediction that Emily would do Rose Royce- but I would have gone with 'Love don't live here any more' 'Wish upon a star' seems a bit up beat Grin

Someone always does 'No more tears, and I always think 'but it's a DUET!!' - It's very Elfish though.

Ryan will be terrible, he really isn't funky, 5am will be karaoke, and I am already visualising a white shell suit for Honey G, like when Kenny Everett used to do piss take sketches of the Bee Gees. Grin

I think Sam will struggle. Any one who sings a song like 'I will survive' always loses Grin.

see y'all later.

Wine

(And Matt isn't doing the Eagles, which I got excited by, until I remembered it was disco week, but the Emotions song, which is disco)

Oh lordy... I love most of those songs. I am absolutely dreading HoneyG slaughtering 'Stayin Alive'. It will be a travesty and actually I think I could do it meself now, I know exactly what she will do with it and it ain't pretty!

Very predictable song choices, see you all later Smile

I'll be watching tomorrow but am wondering if anything will be said about Honey G thinking she's the real deal as she's taken drugs but expect nothing will be said.

The only drugs Honey G is taking is HRT. Can't believe she's still on there!

Awww, I want Sam to win. She was at primary and secondary school with my kids. Even as an eight year old she had a belting voice

Read today that Honey G has taken drugs in the past. Calls for her to be removed from the show!
(Maybe the G stands for 'gear '... )

Not keen on wishing on a star. Emily needs to do an up beat song for a change!
Anyway, hi all. Been a shitty day, PC is on the blink and that causes mega stress! Dh and i not talking.. Happy days..not.

Hi all.

Cringing at the thought of Ryan trying to be funky. Best of My Love takes me back to the days when I would occasionally allow myself to be dragged onto the local leisure park to a cheesy chain bar (total torture for an indie kid like me). It's the kind of song wedding DJs play to get people on the dancefloor innit.
