X FACTOR 25/11- ***SAT and SUN at 7.30pm*** - It's the Semi final-and the theme is 'Cool Britannia' !

[Raahh]

So, finally they all sing together. And the Cutkelvins have a high view of themselves, as the theme is classic British songs- so they are doing an original .

I think they may leave.

Here is the song list.

Kevin Davy White : The Beatles – 'Come Together'
Rak-Su : Sweet Female Attitude – 'Flowers'
Grace Davies : David Bowie – 'Life on Mars?'
Lloyd Macey : Elton John – 'Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me'
Matt Linnen : The Rolling Stones – 'Gimme Shelter'
The Cutkelvins: 'Nothing Like You' (original track)

I am not sure what criteria they are using to decide what is 'Cool Britannia' Nut I'd hardly put Rat Soup's offering up there either

I'm still not feeling 100% after last week's migraine, so it is touch and go as to whether I will watch . I've been up all night with stomach pains. (I will spare you the rest of the details) So tonight I'm drinking water.

Bowie would be turning in his grave hearing that version of his song.

raah my dog has a high pitched bark at first but once she get's going it's as if her testicles drop and she has a proper deep bark like a big dog. But generally she's just happy and high pitched.

And not sure this is "classic" . I'm old and I've never heard it. Hmph

The Rat soup fan club have been paid more this week.

They look like they are performing on The Word.

trippy & cool? Wtf??

What? has he been mute for the past few weeks?

Original? It was fucking shit! Simon must be developing dementia.

Roussette persistence is the key. Robert Webb has tweeted me too!

They must have accidentally botoxed Simons brain this week. It's the only explanation

Rainy it would have been best watched on the Word- after the pubs shut, when pissed.
Still crap though .

Respect Always

Platypus It would explain a lot

HOw many bloody adverts?

Simon has gone soft! Not sure whether it's being in America or having kids but he's definitely lost his edge of late.

Or maybe it's the Botox.....

Maybe they should move X factor to a post pub time slot, all the singers would sound good ( and I would be asleep and would miss the lot)

I hate Sainsbury's Christmas ad

dillite I just said the same to OH

Hi everyone, (waving from sunny Mexico where it is 1510 hrs!)

Honest, the thread is hilarious to read when you can’t watch

So sorry you are still feeling dreadful Raahh, I have come out in sympathy with you. 😰. Despite being in a lovely 5* hotel and the weather outside being 30 degrees plus, I have the cold from HELL 🤧🤧🤧. I swear the rest of the hotel can hear me coming from 50 paces I am coughing so much. Sincerely hope it eases up soon.

Anyway, back to business! Sounds pretty crap again tonight from posts so far so obviously not missing much but will try and watch a few acts on YouTube tomorrow if they have been posted. What the bloody hell is that song Rat Soup are doing? Never heard of it! Please tell me Boyzlife aren’t the star turn tonight 🙄. Christ on a bike, I can hear the barrel scraping all the way across the Atlantic! To say X Factor is shit this year is an understatement.

Dillite stop showing off how young you are! (Nearly wet myself at the hairy ONS 😂). I was born when Bill Haley and the Comets were no. 1 with Rock around the Clock and on that note I am going to creak off over to the SCD thread! Keep me posted with everything.

Too many Raahh

I wrote on the end of the last thread that Rita Ora went on the German The Voice as a contestant but the judges didn't recognise her, thought it was bloody hilarious!

I do love the Coca cola ad, it makes me feel Christmas is coming!

The Coca Cola truck came here a few weeks ago and apparently it was mayhem, traffic jams everywhere when people tried to go home afterward

Raffles I'm just a little bit at you not having to suffer with the cold weather, but hope you're feeling better asap

fat Aled lost his voice? Shame it didn’t happen before they filmed this video

Raffles fortunately, Boyzlife were at the Christmas switch on near me. They won't be turning up on X Factor. Well, they might. It's got that shit
