X FACTOR- the acts are singing TWICE... a song of their own choice and one that 'Louis Loves'

[Raahh]

And of course, none of us really bought his pathetic attempt to look cool, by saying he 'loved' Bowie and Prince .

Here are the choices-

Matt Terry
Little Mix - Secret Love Song (Louis Loves)
Sia - Alive (Own choice)

Emily Middlemas
Britney Spears - Toxic (Louis Loves)
Rag 'N' Bone Man - Human (Own choice)

Honey G
Can't Touch This + Super Freak - MC Hammer + Rick James (Louis Loves)
Push It + Black Beatles - Salt-N-Pepa + Rae Sremmurd (Own choice)

Saara Aalto
The Winner Takes It All - ABBA (Louis Loves)
Diamonds are Forever + Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend - Shirley Bassey + Marilyn Monroe (Own choice)

5 After Midnight
Uptown Funk - Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars (Louis Loves)
Sorry + One Dance - Justin Bieber + Drake (Own choice)


I'm expecting Honey Fucking G to shoe horn

'you say Louis , I say walsh' in to her mash-up medley . At least she is finally doing 'Can't touch this'. It was only a matter of time.

Emily is doing something up-beat.
Or probably just the JL version of 'Toxic'.

Tbh, I'd rather see Honey G do Bassey than Elfish. I'm getting as bored by her doing pretty much the same thing ever week, with a different ott stage setting, as I am of Honey G. But Ms G's time has to be up.

Matt will push the falsetto to the max. I would like to see him in a Sia wig, although i think Sia should be on the X factor 'banned' list.
5 Am are going to be dreadful. They really should just dance. The judges will love them. We will be .
2 songs each may tip us over the edge. I'm off the wagon. This week, my mulled wine is alcoholic.

Hur-Raahh!

Louis loves, but no Glen Meaderos or b'witched! ( do you spell it like that? )

I did not have Louis down as a little mix fan either ( too many girls..) i feel a conspiracy..
80s and christmas left now. Soon be the final.
Bring it on.

[Roussette]

Hellooooo Raaahhh... I checked earlier and thought Raaahh better not be out

Oh blimey. HG and 'can't touch this', I can always visualise what her act will be like. predictable oh yes.

And the 5am boys better not slaughter Uptown or I'll be slaughtering them!

[nancy75]

I'm going to have to miss it tonight, the first of many very boring work parties! A night in a tennis club with tennis coaches oh joy!

[TalcAndTurnips]

I would sing *My Old Man's a Dustman (Fatboy Slim remix) (Louis Loves)

followed by (nobody's choice)

[The80sweregreat]

Yes, hi Raahh! Thanks for the info too.
I love coming on to see what joy we have to listen too later on.

Honey shouldnt touch that song really.

[The80sweregreat]

Nancy, i think your in for the better night somehow. Have fun.

[AlabasterSnowball]

Enjoy your night Nancy 🎾

[Roussette]

Talc that clip had me nearly choking on my wine!

Nancy enjoy your eve!

I just wish HG would attempt something that is different, as opposed to jumping round the stage in tinfoil like a loon. Other contestants are made to either dance, do a fast song not a ballad or vice versa... why should she do the same every week? I'm usually drinking wine when I'm watching so for all I know it IS the same song every week. Sounds like it.

[nancy75]

Thank you, I may join you from the loo, it will be more entertaining than the conversation where I am!

[The80sweregreat]

Rou, it is the same song! Rehashed. In a flammable suit.
I think she will go this week.
( sticks neck out..) but what do i know?
Nic criticised her last week..

[nancy75]

I think Honey G will go this week, they obviously wanted to keep her long enough to get her on the tour but they won't want her to win.she is a one trick pony, and it's not even a good trick!
I think fake Louis is the one they would like to win

[The80sweregreat]

Nancy, but a load of fit tennis coaches sounds such fun compared to Honey Fing G in a gold top!
(I take it they are not that interesting , unless they are talking the price of rackets or how well Andy Murray and Jamie have done this year? )
Anyway, have fun!

[AlabasterSnowball]

I love the he man song talc

[nancy75]

80s, they sound better on paper than they look in real life, and they are all health freaks who look on in slight horror & amazement as I knock back the booze and have loads of fags (clearly I am not a tennis player or fit person of any kind)

[The80sweregreat]

Nancy, oh dear!

[The80sweregreat]

Had a thought, who would 'duet ' with Honey if she gets to the final?

[nancy75]

Vanilla ice, nobody else would do!

[nancy75]

Or maybe mc hammer ( is he still alive?)

[Raahh]

nancy- enjoy! I love tennis, as a totally obsessed spectator, but can't play, spending time with healthy people might not be great. And I'm not a Murray fan at all. I spend enough time on tennis threads defending my stance on that one...

I don't believe Louis 'loves' girl bands as much as this list has us believe, WestzoneBoyshoite is clearly more his thing.

[Raahh]

The duets thing is funny isnt it? In the first few years, they used to get 'proper ' guests- now they can rely on Nicole to sing with her act- but obviously Shazza can't sing with Honey g. But, sing 'singing' isn't required, maybe, they can rope Ozzy in? Louis can always get one of his wee Westboylifezone mates to come on with 5am. Most of them need the money.

I loved Vanilla Ice when he was , fittingly, on Dancing on ice. He seemed like a really nice bloke.

[The80sweregreat]

Boyshoite! Love it.
Quick look at the net and MC Hammer is still around, 3 years older than me!
It he wanted a bit of a comeback, he could give it a whirl with x factor i suppose.

[The80sweregreat]

Shazza and Honey doing a mash up ! I wouldn't put it past them, if they gave her enough champers she might be mildly entertaining!

[Roussette]

Hahaha... I'd forgotten the bit where they have a guest singer, who on earth would they wheel in for HG?! I bet they're panicing already.

Thank the lord you've reassured me 80s - I just knew it was the same song week after week after week - it was the different colour metallic baseball caps that got me confoooosed

[The80sweregreat]

Rou, she would amaze me if she came out doing a Celine number!
Without a cap on and a full blown wind machine.
