No Hallowe'en theme for X Factor, oh, no. Unless they do it next week Grin

This week, the song choices are:

GIRLS
Bella Penfold – Diamonds Are Forever – Shirley Bassey (w/ Kayne West rap)
Molly Scott – Little Do You Know – Alex and Sierra
Scarlett Lee – Always On My Mind – Elvis
Shan Ako – Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word – Elton John

GROUPS
Acacia and Aaliyah – Surprise on the night
LMA Choir – Proud Mary – Tina Turner
Misunderstood – Close to You – Maxi Priest (w/ original rap)
United Vibe – Party in The USA – Miley Cyrus

OVERS
Danny Tetley – Crazy For You – Madonna
Giovanni Spano – Surprise on the night
Janice Robinson – Show Me Love – Robin S

BOYS
Anthony Russell – I Want To Know What Love Is – Foreigner
Brendan Murray – Believe - Cher
Dalton Harris – I Have Nothing – Whitney Houston

Going off that list, I'm not sure they get what a Guilty Pleasure is. Surely it should be something like 'Agadoo', or Renee and Renata.

And it must be the 8th outing for 'Proud Mary' this series.

Bit worried about A and A- I think they are being shafted, and i suspect the 'surprise on the night' will have been because they were asked to do something odd.

And since when did 'Diamonds are Forever' have a rap??

I'm going to need a lot of wine Wine

Fairy that’s a bit of a disappointing update - I thought you were training it to dance or juggle & do magic tricks Sad

Raahh · 27/10/2018 20:39

Piggy I did get that impression from the re-cap Grin

See- the songs they are playing now, are much more like actual guilty pleasures.

Is TTT also from Liverpool? ( not sure)

nancy75 · 27/10/2018 20:39

Yes mmm bop is much more suitable

Piggywaspushed · 27/10/2018 20:39

my guity pleasure is Rick Astley. I spent the 80s pretending to be very credible and cool....

Roussette · 27/10/2018 20:40

I'm not the slightest bit enthused either Pawnee but I'm a self flagellating sort of gal Grin

nancy75 · 27/10/2018 20:40

God I hate choirs

Raahh · 27/10/2018 20:40

Grrrrrrrrr.

I just think of that shit AA advert when I hear this with the badly dubbed annoying toddler.

If only an AA van could run them all over.

JaneJeffer · 27/10/2018 20:41

And DS1 needs to leave the room Grin

My guilty pleasure is Star Trekkin

nancy75 · 27/10/2018 20:41

This Choir is more Butlins than BGT

PawneeParksDept · 27/10/2018 20:41

Who is TTT?

This is such a generic choir song

And they've got the Death Slot ie Lively opening number but destined to be forgotten by Advert Break #2

Destinysdaughter · 27/10/2018 20:41

THat blonde singer is doing ‘hairology’ with her hair. Think that’s what it’s called!

The80sweregreat · 27/10/2018 20:41

Nothing wrong with Rick : his actually quite cool these days!

Raahh · 27/10/2018 20:41

Piggy I love Rick (did you see him on Graham Norton? I missed himSad)
