X FACTOR- and it's Whitney versus Elton week. A.K.A 'Melisma' week...

[Raahh]

or' Shouting and over emoting week'.

And once again, no-one is doing 'Song for Guy'

Andrea Faustini
I Have Nothing

Lauren Platt
How Will I Know?

Only The Young
Something About The Way You Look Tonight

Stereo Kicks
Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me

Ben Haenow
I Will Always Love You

Fleur East
I’m Every Woman

Stevi Ritchie
I’m Still Standing

All the usual suspects, song-wise, are present. Even managing to shoe-horn 'I'm every woman' in, even though it's a cover.
Looking forward to Lamenting Lozza, making HWIK sound like a funeral march.

Despite the theme, I am disappointed 'Don't let the sun.' isn't the Nik Kershaw song 'I won't let the sun...' Wouldn't be unusual for Louis to completely mess up the theme, after all.

And it's a double elimination. Will Melty 'still be standing' by Monday? Will the fact OTY are doing something grown up and serious for once , be their downfall?

See y'all later. I am in homework hell. Is it too early for ?

[Frozenchipsareawful]

My eldest listens to radio one in his van out and about at work. they interviewed the daughter of the shouty man on the Sunday results show who is a big OTY fan. I was disappointed when he said he missed it!
I agree that Simon is not a Pugs fan. I wished they find more relevant artists - neither of these have had a hit in years ( yes, i know Whitney died 2 and half years ago!) these kids are too young for these songs really. Wonder if Cheryl is pregnant? Might get a decent judge next year in that case.

[squoosh]

I don't get the constant obsession with Whitney. Yes she had a great pair of pipes and could belt out the notes but she never sang a decent song in her life.

Out of the four Whitters numbers being warbled tonight, two of them are cover versions. Says it all really.

[Frozenchipsareawful]

Squoosh, yes, agree she was over rated. I prefer Dolly Partons version of i will always love you, she also wrote it too of course! Mind you, i cant sing a note so i do envy anyone who do these big songs and not sound like a strangled cat.

[Twuntosaur]

squoosh Nooooo! The horror is just burned into my brain :( I did have to google to check

Does anyone else remember these songs being done already?
Anyone??
Please???

Yy Frozen + squoosh, neither relevant nor interesting. . Elton John had some great songs too :(

[Frozenchipsareawful]

I like elton, but these kids probably dont. Oh well, like royalty they have to do what they are told!

[CoconutAmericano]

What a refreshing and interesting song list

[CalamitouslyWrong]

For you twunt:

OTY's room audition

And lamenting-lozza in the arena

[squoosh]

Twunt is probably busy watching her 'Ray Quinn X Factor Highlights 2006. She's a big fan.

[CalamitouslyWrong]

[CalamitouslyWrong]

You mean this, squoosh?

[RudolphUcker]

Oh, it will be woeful

[Raahh]

Please don't remind us about Big band week. It was pants.

[CalamitouslyWrong]

This new intro sequence is crap.

[BOFster]

So, has Chezza got a spot of malaria again then?

[CalamitouslyWrong]

All. Of. Them. Please.

Since you asked who should go, xfactor.

[Honeydragon]

Dire this will be hmmmm

[Raahh]

You know, I'm tempted to get my tubes re-attached have another baby just to call it Melisma- probably work best on a girl though.

[CalamitouslyWrong]

Why does dermot need women I short skirts to accompany him on stage?

[RudolphUcker]

X Factor, never knowingly without a random sprinkling of women as decorative objects.

[RudolphUcker]

Diplomatic 'flu, Boffles. Mingehead and she are on non speakers.

Evening!

I am really not looking forward to tonight. I don't like neither Whitney or Elton and find most of their songs boring. Might switch over to BBC1 later.

And 2 more leaving this weekend? Simon really wants to get rid of Stevi, doesn't he?

What the hell is Lauren wearing?

[Raahh]

I used to pretend to be Kiki Dee, when i was about 6.

EMILE SANDE! She's been quiet for a bit.

[CalamitouslyWrong]

This will not surprise anyone on this thread, but I hate David guetta. His music is beyond shit.

[dillite]

Wait, why are they coming out with their acts? What happened to the stupid posing?
