THE VOICE - It's finally THE FINAL! ****8.30pm****

[Raahh]

Here are the song choices - and there are duets with the judges .

Donel Mangena
New song: Let Me Love You - DJ Snake Ft Justin Bieber
Duet with Will.i.am: OMG - Usher ft Will.i.am

Ruti Olajugbagbe
New song: If You're Not The One - Daniel Bedingfield
Duet with Sir Tom Jones: What A Wonderful World - Louis Armstrong

Belle Voci
New song: O Fortuna - Carl Orff
Duet with Jennifer Hudson - My Heart Will Go On - Celine Dion

Lauren Bannon
New song: Stay - Shakespears Sister
Duet with Olly Murs: Ain't No Mountain High Enough - Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrell

Some interesting choices- always fun to see what Will will 'sing' in the duet.

And how will J-Hud be able to make a pop/opera crossover all about her? (Quite easily, I imagine).

I need nibbles- and I actually have a small amount of wine that I might just have to drink

and tonight, dd1 and i tormented ourselves by watching (well fast forwarding bits of) the generation game.

this week featuring cake decorating! and magic!

Basil Brush is still the best bit in it.

Oh yes, it was really really shit tonight...

And the y didn't even say cuddly toy on the conveyor belt. Who forgets that??

DD1 and I decided it was lacking music- when they were doing the cake decorating challenge for example , there should have been music in the back ground. The silence was odd. You need back ground music- when the conveyor was going as well- like on Countdown- to give it it 'tension' iyswim. And also, so you have a sense of time.

And yes- how the heck do you you forget the CUDDLY TOY??

Would have loved to have found this thread while watching The Voice. Everyone I speak to say they don't watch it, same with BGT
So can I placemark ready for next weekend.

Sorry it's XFactor this weekend, isn't it!
I just watch them all!
Strictly, I'm a Celeb etc.
Are you into all those as well?

Buffy Hi!

It think it's BGT soon. I don't watch that, but there is usually a thread. A lot of us on this one usually pop up on the X Factor threads (which start end of August/September-ish?) . They are always better than the programme .

And Eurovision is coming up- the threads for that are lots of fun (unless you are like me, and get pissed early on fall asleep before the end )

Thanks Raahh I'll look out for you all for X Factor then!

The Voice may be over- but, Rut's version of 'Dreams' is apparently number 14 in the charts. This is not a bad result for a Voice winner really, and especially in these days of streaming and down loads, (even X Factor winners aren't guaranteed a top 5 hit these days).

So, well done to her.And S'Tom

Ruti's

And now- (because it's Saturday, and I'm sat here watching greasy hair Nick Knowles, so it's kind of connected)...

I turned over (he's doing Who Dares Wins, used to be part of the Lottery show) and I saw an advert Stephen Mulhern(sp) (who I can't stand) apparentlt the Lottery is now on ITV

When did this happen??

goes back to talking to myself on a dead thread

Oh but I'm here Raahh ! wondering why there is no BGT thread ( maybe I am too common for MN after all!!) and planning to catch up on Who Dares Wins later.

I too was confused by the Lotto (do keep up !) ad and ITV.

I don't like BGT.

Footie on here.

I am hiding from the football in the kitchen.

But there's a thread about a man with no shoes in a tree elsewhere on MN so not really concentrating.

Hello!!

I'm watching Casualty now. Sort of.

I never watch BGT.

I watched a bit the year Faryl was in it ( i think that was her name) .

I find people hypocrites- when 16 year olds go on X factor and get the piss taken out of them , hell breaks loose.

But there have been little kids on BGT . 7 year olds Crying.

And that's just entertainment. innit

Well at least you had someone to talk to whilst suffering from Voice withdrawal symptoms raahh !

Piggy

I liked when Michael McIntyre was on it, he was very funny.

I can't hide in my kitchen because there's Fortnite going on in there.

The man in the tree thread seems to have disappeared.

Piggy I've just seen a BGT thread in Chat.

My internet is so slow tonight.

Yes, I found it! it was a bit dull
