X FACTOR- It's time for the FIRST LIVE SHOW! Saturday 8.20pm...Simon will be missing, they are ignoring Hallowe'en, there are wild cards...

[Raahh]

and the new twists etc are all a bit of a mess- so listen very carefully

I will be out (out) so to cheer myself up, I am starting the thread a bit early.

And the new format is a bit confusing.
Simon has definitely washed his hands of it all- so the Great British Public will be responsible for all the votes, no judges votes at all.
Someone will leave on Saturday, and Sunday as well (I think). There will be no deadlock.

And the top two acts get to sing again to compete to win great prizes (I think Simon has been watching Crackerjack (crackerjack)).

The categories are split over the nights - I think.

Told you it was confusing.

The wildcards haven't officially been announced, so don't know what they are singing. And I'm sad about the lack of Hallowe'en songs.

Some of the song choices are very odd- and I think the ones who sing original songs are at real disadvantage with the GBP.

Anyway. Off to watch dd1 play football in the rain. Will check in later, before I go off to my party.

TTFN

The song is New Rules by Dua Lipa.

It has a very similar backing to a few things this summer though, I think.

Really like Jack and Joel made me smile and I love that song. My favourite so far. Who is everyone’s favourite?

Rai Elle

Lelley, j and j , kevin. Very Good so far.
Bettr than last nights ones.

I voted for J and J, because i like them.
I'm not sure I have a favourite- I quit like Rai-Elle, because that's what 16 year old girls should look like. not the Duchess of Cambridge.
it's easier to list the act I hate.

Alisah

Does he live on an allotment?

Get him a medal. he irons.

He does his own cooking and cleaning? How does the poor lamb survive?

Who knew there were so many singing plasterers?

I like Rai-Elle, but I liked the Cutkelvins and Kevin toi.
This guy and Sparrow -legs Sam could have a plaster off

Alisah , she shouldnt be there at all.

The singer that is, ..
I need a wall to be plastered ..can i get a quote?

He is dancing like his feet are glued to the floor

I wouldn't want either of them to plaster my house. They don't seem very dedicated to the art.

The singing plasterers should have a naked sing off whilst plastering

This is one of those grammatically annoying titles.

' Scars to your beautiful '..what??

This man is very nice to look at.

Who knew there were so many shit boring songs?

Jeez, Tony Tooting Tony needs to tell Nicole when she's had enough!

I do not want to see the Dean Gaffney look alike naked, thank you very much!

80s he could plaster my walls any day

dilite I like your style.

H ehas a voice like wet plaster.
Nice looking bloke though, most men in saffend tend to not look like him..

Naked plastering.

it could take over from Sewing bee, that isn't on this year.

he might still be a plasterer in a few weeks Louis.

Sharon's right... he's Trouble.

Arrogant, I reckon.

happy there are many , many shit boring songs.

Alisah will sing them ALL.
