So, what makes most of these guilty pleasures? Surely they should be songs they are embarrassed to admit to liking?
I can imagine Mary singing Shirley Bassey out of choice...

AND

WTF is it with the bloody 'mash-up' nonsense? What happened to calling it a medley? I blame "Glee"

I quite fancy the Bubble in a DJ when he sings. Then I remember laughing at my mother for fancying Michal Ball in the early 90s and realise I have turned into her.

Well thanks for your wonderful company, goodnight and sorry if you've been traumatised or disappointed by the Darius photo.

See you all next week

he has to mention the racist assault

Night all, going to find something to soak up the pear liquer with now. See you tomorrow.

I want to go and see Mickey Bubble.
I love his voice.
It's so smooth.
I bought my Dad his CD last year as he said he liked it. Two weeks later he gave it back to me.
Cheers Dad

I must admit that I warmed to the Buble on An Audience With. He seemed funny and charming.

I like Katie's performace.

I note I am alone in this!

Michael Buble isn't lush. He's not at all attractive.

Bed for me. Simply gagging for the same again tomorrow.

I'm not middle aged, I'm only 32 25.
The Bubble is hot, in a fairly naf obvious way I s'pose.
I am fairly obvious and naf though!

Oh, my friend saw Michael Buble last week in concert, and said he was fab.

I quite like him actually.

Haven't read the whole thread but thought Cher was ghastly - to look at and to listen too. She is so chavtastic just like her mentor.

Thought Rebecca was good (loved the piano accompliment) and thought Matt's version of hit me baby was great with the guitar too. Prob the only one .

Oh dear, poor Chez and her fake malaria.

I've had it, I had it with no help from people other than those I'd met, with a baby.
It was horrific, and yes, I was told I might die.
At the same time I had to rely on friends to get my blood tests to the right place, and to speak for me, to take me to the toilet, and to make sure I actually got the drugs, and I paid for those of course.

Sod off Chezza and take your diet pills with you.
Malaria is no joke.

Oh, and sod off with your prentendy marriage too.

BOYS

Aiden
Diamonds Are Forever Arctic Monkeys He is too intense every week. Love the song but not sure he really pulled it off - was it actually enjoyable?

Matt
Hit Me Baby One More Time Britney Spears Great cover, you didn't really think it was Britney was suprising.

Paije
Ain?t Nobody Chaka Khan - awful clothes and only go going towards the end.

GIRLS

Treyc
Whole Lotta Love Led Zeppelin Love this record - she nearly got it.

Rebecca
Why Don?t You Do Right Nora Lee King - adore this song on Who framed Roger Rabbit and love Rebecca's styling. She is a class act and deserved favourite to win.

Katie
King Of The Swingers Jungle Book - thought this was wonderful. Didn't like her at all last week but this was fun and probably my favourite act of the night.

Cher
Mash up of:
No Diggity ? Blackstreet

Shout - James Corden She is definitely talented but the rapping and fact gangsta styling is getting a bit boring.

OVERS

Mary
I (Who Have Nothing) ? Shirley Bassey - great performance but a cop out and agree with Danni that she needs to perform some more contempory songs.

John
Zoom Big Fat Larrys Band This song is way to slow to be entertaining as a spectacle. Didn't like the dancers either but at least John looks good and is trying.

Wagner
Mash up of:
Spice Up Your Life - Spice Girls
Ricky Martin - Livin' La Vida Loca Please get him out this week. Can't take anymore Jedward moments.

GROUPS

Belle Amie
I'll Stand By You The Pretenders Great record but they really are not gelling. I like the tall one and cute short one but the other two are grim.

One Direction
Nobody Knows Pink! They are always going to be possible but they need to get Harry outfront.

A sterling assessment, Butkin. You are verily the Barry Norman of the thread [hgrin]

I pray for Cher and Katie to be in the bottom 2!

The way I see it at the moment is that the producers or the judges are desparately trying to keep Cher and Katie so are giving them the quirky stuff with all the backing dancers etc and leaving everyone else with run of the mill stuff. That said, i was impressed with Matt last night.

I agree but hopefully people will see through that and see that neither can see and that Cher is a one trick pony of the highest order!.

She is. I think she will crumble at ballads and especially big band week. Big band week will see Mary shine I think.

How long before they figure out that she can't sing? Really can't, even worse than Bellamy.
Wanger and Bellamy in bottom two tonight I think. Are we staying here?

Should we start a new thread? This one will fill up quickly the way we waffle give indepth act analasis....

Do your thing Raah [hgrin]
