I wasn't going to watch but dd wanted to, she has never seen it before. Why did they have them torture us with an entire song? It was so, so, sooooooooo bad.

ThePlatypusAlwaysTriumphs · 02/09/2017 20:10

Been on 2 minutes and I've had to start on the wine! I didn't think much of that at all!

Is Shazza getting younger? Or does she have a painting in her attic?

Rousette of course it is, but it gives us another thing to criticise Grin

Simon will buy the rights to that song for a quid and then over produce it and ruthlessly market it for shedloads of cash

TheWashingFairyatemyhamster · 02/09/2017 20:11

Apparently Raksu means 'darling' in Finnish. Not sure that's why the named themselves, but i'm certainly fonder of them now they've finished.

dillite · 02/09/2017 20:12

Did they just advertise an ad by doing an ad about an ad?

Roussette · 02/09/2017 20:13

Oh yes. Sing a crap song. Judges know you've got mileage. Judges tell you to try another song. Bingo.

You are my people on here Grin

My googling of Raksu brought up the fact that song, and others, are on spotify.

ThePlatypusAlwaysTriumphs · 02/09/2017 20:13

It's not boding well if that's their big opener....

I don't understand - I know it is all fake but play along.

They walked in off the street for an audition - having never met the judges before and their slot on the programme seemed to end with a recorded version of their song "I'm feelin' you"

dustarr73 · 02/09/2017 20:15

I liked them but im easily pleased.

dillite · 02/09/2017 20:16

16 minutes in and we have had 14 minutes worth of ads.

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 02/09/2017 20:16

Does Dermot have a bald patch on the top of his head?

nancy75 · 02/09/2017 20:17
