oh and 'A Song that will get you to the final' a.k.a one they have probably sung before.

Here is the list-

Matt Terry
Silent Night
Jessie Ware - Say You Love Me

Emily Middlemas
John Lennon - War is Over
Gary Jules - Mad World

Saara Aalto
Mariah Carey - All I Want For Christmas is You
Sia - Chandelier

5 After Midnight
East 17 - Stay Another Day
Stevie Wonder - Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours)

I heard 'Stay' on the radio the other day, and guessed it would be 5Am's pick- cue big fluffy parka jackets, vocals that were poor in the original any way, nice bells. Ignore the fact it isn't really about Christmas.

More bloody Sia, who must be on the payroll his year.

A falsetto Silent Night will be bloody awful, so i hope he tones it down. There will be a choir though. Of children probably. Who will also feature when Emily drones her way through 'War is over'.

I have no idea who I want to get to the final from this lot. Maybe they will bring back a wild card Grin

See y'all later.

I've gone for vodka this week. it seemed needed. Grin

80s- fortunately for the producers, Elfish has been living here for a while. But a trip to Finland (wherever the fuck that actaully is Grin) on the battle bus would be great.

All of them should go. There isn't a single decent act.

Roussette · 04/12/2016 20:08

I've just flipped over momentarily and it was a magnificent lion so i am tempted!

Trouble is... none of these contestants are appealing whatsoever

LineyReborn · 04/12/2016 20:09

5am can't sing, so on that basis I would imagine their time is up. But who actually fucking knows.

dillite · 04/12/2016 20:09

What's a battle bus? Finland is nowhere as it doesn't exist. So producers need not worry.

Roussette · 04/12/2016 20:10

Thing is... now I know that Saaaaara has tried to do Eurovision twice, she is sounding so so Eurovision if that makes sense.

dillite · 04/12/2016 20:10

Who is she?

The80sweregreat · 04/12/2016 20:11

Thats a pink jacket! Wtf did she get that?

dillite · 04/12/2016 20:11

She skinned the muppets!

Roussette · 04/12/2016 20:11

I'd laugh if she dropped the mic down the sleeve of that coat. She wouldn't find it till next Sunday

NoisyBrain · 04/12/2016 20:12

Another female singer with clothes on. What's going on in X Factor world? Shock

The80sweregreat · 04/12/2016 20:12

Dilitte' lol, lol!
Wearing a muppet. Sums it up

TheFairyCaravan · 04/12/2016 20:12

That's 3 weeks on the trot the women have had clothes on. Lady Gaga is going to spoil it isn't she?

Solina · 04/12/2016 20:12

I find it super annoying when people make the joke about finland not existing. It was funny the first time but ffs time to move on...

Anyways I am watching but cant really say I care who goes and who stays.

Thought it too good to be true that she was fully dressed. From a distance she looks nekkid now.

This is the song that was played everywhere.

dillite · 04/12/2016 20:13

With her dull, flat voice she would fit right in with all the contestants.

nancy75 · 04/12/2016 20:13

Evening all! We chose yonderland over the start of X factor, far better!

LineyReborn · 04/12/2016 20:14

God she's so thin.

Roussette · 04/12/2016 20:14

I love that sparkly jumpsuit she has on. I have a party coming up, wish I could wear something like that pah!

(should have thought about that before I had a second helping of steak and ale pie today!)

I love Yonderland. it's one of the best things on the telly.

OP posts:
dillite · 04/12/2016 20:15

What is Yonderland?

nancy75 · 04/12/2016 20:16

Yonderland is awesome Grin
I reckon I could get away with that jumpsuit, as long as I don't eat between now & 2097 I would look ok in it
