I don't mind 'Edge of Heaven' too much for J and J- it could have been much worse.
Am very surprised at the choice for the Cutkelvins. At the beginning of the series, I thought they were one of the favourites, but Simon doesn't seem to be giving them much, and they are increasingly becoming the sister , with backing.

And BINGO! 'I can't make you love me' I can't stand that song- and it's Grace singing it- which means they really want her to win. it's such a favourite on these shows.

I think Rat Soup doing 'Faith' rather than Sam , means Sam is going home.

And hopefully, the title of Sobby's song is an omen

There are rumours that the quadruple elimination won't happen now. Which is good in a way, as it would probably have left us with Grace and Rat Soup for the next 4 weeks .

So- I'm off to check if dd1's football has been postponed, and then i need to sort out snacks for later.

Well ah divven na

Hmm, I am a wee bit suspicious that three different acts have won the prize fight in the first three weeks.

He better get waxing for ready for his leotard

Oh dear. Poor Little Mixers .

Good result there. He did not a bad job of a very good song.

My DH likes The Quo

Oh, what a beautiful thing to do random. I'm welling up here. You sound like a lovely sister.

I went to see chris de burgh in concert once. My friend liked him and had a spare space in the car. He was ok - long time ago.
Lady in red is pure cheese, but we sung along. Happy days.

Id never heard that You won't go when I go song until I saw the doc and it immediately brought me to tears

Raah . I'm same age as you and loved them in my student years. I'm prepared to believe there were some strangeoids there!

Went to see Iron Maiden earlier in the year and there were some similar sad remnants of the past there!

random what a wonderful idea... the charity donations and the compilation. Your brothers legacy will live on. You have my sympathies. I lost a brother too, it was a long time ago, he was an adult and it was in very tragic circumstances, it never goes away.

Piggy

Does he like the Quo in an ironic manner or is he a genuine fan?

I'm so glad so many of you feel this a safe space to admit such horrifying tales of partners' dodgy musical taste

random

It's definitely not ironic. he has the CD

Yeeeeeeeesssssssss!!!!!!

MN wishes came true there...

Sobby is FINALLY out! FINALLY!

Happy with that result.

My OH has very similar excellent taste to me. But I did find a Geri Halliwell CD in his collection a while back

OMG Sobby is out! Woohoo!!

Sobby is gone!!! Hooray

Oh god are the viewing public deaf? He was soooo out of tune!

The public did not warm to Sobby at all, so right decision

80s I'd fully expect you to enjoy a bit of a Lady in Red croon-a-long

Result for Sam, wow.

Maybe he was the Manx customs official who signed off the jet Nicole was in.

Whoop!!

nearly... nearly makes up for Jake and Joel going.

She's had more lives than a cat.
