X FACTOR - Saturday ,it's the groups and the boys, Sunday ,it's the Girls and Overs. The theme is ' Viva Latino'.

[Raahh]

And the song list reads like a 'Now that's what I call 2017' cd. Could be good for Jack and Joel- 'Havana' is very popular with the yoofs right now. I'm not that keen- it's always on the radio. My youngest loves it. But I love J and J.

But Despacito ? Really ??

First shout outs for 'featuring Sean Paul' Bingo!

'Smooth' is one of my favourite songs ,ever. Love a bit of Santana.

The X Factor 2017 continues this Saturday at 8:20PM and Sunday night at 7:05PM on ITV.

Simon is supposed to be back.

Shockingly- Grace is NOT singing a cover

TWO Enrique songs! And apparently Sobby is bring very brave singing the J-Lo song. .

Is get lucky 'latin' ?
It still means Grace and Rat Soup could be the respective nights winners though, and compete for the 'big prize'.

I might have to go out. Either tonight or tomorrow- for a firework display. At least before, missing the the results show on a Sunday wasn't too big a deal. It was bit pants anyway.

Anyway, lots to do today, and I need nibbles and

See y'all later.

Sam black with pink ladies. It doesnt get better than this kids.

Why have they decided this guy has to be Grease guy week on week? Was that ever his thing before the live shows?

Why are the backing dancers dressed like they are in a Robert Palmer video?

And how is Twist and Shout latin??

Oh look, yet another song that has absolutely nothing Latin about it. Not even a random word or a guitar riff

There was a funny clip on Twitter the other day showing protestors drowning out a neo Nazi group in America by singing La Bamba at them. It's a bit naff as an X Factor choice though. We Belong Together is a better song, a bit sexy and sinister.

Danny lambo would have been all over this.

Part of my degree was Spanish, first thing our lecturer made us do was to sing this song!!

'You're like a young Ritchie Valens'

Says Louis (maybe)

--he was only 18 when he died)

I reckon Simon had work done last week having had a look at his face this week. Mouth very lopsided, face has dropped a bit?

Was simons fall caused by something else, his mouth is looking really lopsided?

I preferred that to that Rat Soup shit

I have no idea why he was chose to come back in place of tiny tooting Tony.

Always you have some great Spanish singing anecdotes

Did you have to sing individually or as a group? I think I'd rather jump out the window than belt out a La Bamba solo on my first day!

Ritchie Valens is currently turning in his grave!

I adore the music from this era - I was born then 😂 - and believe me that was SHITE!

That’s not fair to say it was dated, it was LATINO week, not crap Ed Sheeran week!!

I liked it

Sam is indeed a Wedding singer.

Can we get the protestors in instead squoosh?

What did that have in common with Rod?

Wait, this song isn't an English language song? I honestly had no idea and did not notice.

I am now going to focus on Simon's mouth I haven't really paid much attention to the tv screen, more to this thread.

squoosh we are sistaz!! I posted that upthread! The Spanish version.

If he was at my wedding I'd get a quickie divorce.

Before the reception.

Someone in the audience is having her nipples pinched. That's the only excuse for that screeching.

Fairy to be honest. So did I. At least it was an honest, karaoke performance.

I really don't get why they like Rat Soup. .

Thanks Squoosh!

No we sang it as a group not individually thank God

Our lecturer was bonkers tho
