What other crap themes are they going to come up with?

Boney M songs (actually I would LOVE that). Imagine witchy little Cher singing Rasputin.

Spice Girls

Glam rock

Thank christ they have got rid of big band week - that was always excrutiating.

I'd agree about most of the Beatles early singles, I don't listen to them. I like the later stuff.I won't attempt to defend myself though, it's tragic enough liking the Beatles and the Stones at 31 Smile. I think it's an early menopause, I also fancy Springsteen.

SuePurblybiltByElves · 19/11/2010 17:26

Rah Rah Rasputin, MOFO leader of the hood. Her leg shake is almost russian dancing though, she'd manage that OK.

How about a drippy week? Carpenters and Peter, Paul and Mary songs, centre partings and "I'd like to teach the world to sing"?

Grin @ Vickers.

I want folk week still. Can't grow a beard by Saturday, automatic disqualification. Bye bye Wand Erection.

Paul McCartney makes my teeth itch. He's an old man trapped in an old man's body. Except he thinks he's a young man trapped in a God's body. Heather Mills must have been a saint to put up with him whipping his instrument out every 5 minutes.

You can't think the Beatles are okay as background music in a lift. You have to love them in an OMG the Beatles are legends type way. Always uttered by people who don't understand the word legend. They often say the same hyperbolic, ridiculously superlative things about football players and/or a particularly nice cake they once ate.

V Emperor's new clothes.

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/11/2010 17:29

Or an 80s week.

OOH that would be good.

Wagner could sing heaven 17's Temptation

rebecca could do sade

Cher could get something by Sopuxie and the Banshees

katie could sing a Madonna song

Showaddywaddy · 19/11/2010 17:29

I think folk week is drippy week.

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/11/2010 17:30
Showaddywaddy · 19/11/2010 17:31

They should do an unplugged week.

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/11/2010 17:31

Depeche Mode week (mind you I love Depeche Mode, I wouldn't take too kindly about Cher murdering their songs)

Showaddywaddy · 19/11/2010 17:32

It's them others isn't it Gerrof? Thank God for us.

JennyHaniver · 19/11/2010 17:33

I remember last years 'Rock' week...the closest they got was a nice bit of Brian Adams.

ShadeofViolet · 19/11/2010 17:33

Glad to read I am not the only one who hates The Beatles.

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/11/2010 17:34

Yes, all those millions of beatles fans are (a) wrong and (b) stupid bastards Grin]

WE are the right ones.

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/11/2010 17:34

What the hell is that symbol Jenny?

It looks like fingers trapped in a car boot.

SuePurblybiltByElves · 19/11/2010 17:35

Stock, Aiken and Waterman week Grin

The Irish one had a trad week but they didn't mention facial hair. Didn't Popstars have one where they had a songwriting class and had to write their own?

SuePurblybiltByElves · 19/11/2010 17:35

Cross posted with your anti-Beatles venom. Boo. For shame.

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/11/2010 17:37

YES stock aitken waterman week is a genuis idea.

Deluded with Kylie, Jason, Mel and Kim, Rick Astley and the Reynolds Girls (remember them?) songs.

The REYNOLDS GIRLS!

sheeplikessleep · 19/11/2010 17:37

'Very current' and 'on the money' week.

JennyHaniver · 19/11/2010 17:38

It is a 'rock' emoticon.... Rock Hands

I would love a folk week - i would pay good money to see paige standing on one leg trying to play the flute...

SuePurblybiltByElves · 19/11/2010 17:38

Brother Beyond too Grin
And the genius bit? Sinitta Grin

SuePurblybiltByElves · 19/11/2010 17:39

Or Sinnita. No, Sinitta.That looks better.
Either way, her in the gold mankini.

GetOrfMoiLand · 19/11/2010 17:40

at 'rock hands'

Christ I had forgotten about Sinitta.

OOH OOH SONIA!!

TinselinaBumSquash · 19/11/2010 17:42

Macca was on X-Factor final last year he went on and on and on and on..... yawn..

I mean come on Macca your boring!

I would like to see another Queen week or an Abba week or a Musicals week or Movies or some such.

I would also like an evict Cher, Wagner and Katie week

HouseOfBamboo · 19/11/2010 17:43

The Beatles wrote some pleasant tunes but I'm SICK OF HEARING THEM. They weren't THAT great.
