X FACTOR- This week's tenuous theme is 'Guilty Pleasures' - so, anything goes! *** Sat 8.35/Sun 8pm**

[Raahh]

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

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

Fernando is my favourite Abba when sober ; Waterloo when drunk. The Day Before You Came when being cool.

They did do some bilge : Summer Night City anyone?

He looks like a potato that's been attacked with a penknife

nancy OMG yes!!

Awww Noisy that sounds like a really happy memory.

I lived and breathed Abba for this brief time in my life and it sure had an impact
know every word of the majority of their songs

Shut up AYDA

Destiny. 😂😂😂

piggy divorce is in order. I know some people. It will be quick and painless. For you.

I loved the Blacmange version of The Day Before You Came. I loved Neil Arthur.

“Count your chest hair” haha she really knows how to put him on his place! 😀

NoisyBrain I had many a messy night out in the venue back in the day!

dillite

There is no song I could give to TeaBag if I were a judge. He's Joe Pasquale who happens to lower his voice a tad when singing. No hope

Back to Abba- and a connection to Madge- one of my favourites is 'Like an Angel passing through my room'.
The original is a pitch perfect , clear as bell, amazing song.

Madge's version is just not a patch on it.

ABBA are ace!
Brendan is a plumber eh? ; it's a wonder he remembered to turn up.
He looks like a young seb Cole.
Not a good thing!

His voice is too high!

Has this one escaped from Alvin & the chipmunks?

Hate this wishy washy voice. He sounds like Ivanka Trump

This would be so much better , if he was wearing a frock.

The Winner Takes It All is actually too much for me. Makes me cry every time.

I bloody loves Abba.

This is shite...

I just can't with him and him sounding like a 12-year old girl. Or a pre-pubescent choir boy.

I hate this song.

His eyebrows are on fleek, as the yoof say.

That was properly bad

he must be wearing a cilice on his bollocks to squeak like that....my ears are bleeding

nancy if your username is a clue to your year of birth, we could well have been at The Venue at the same time!

JL version. See.

Good putdown Ayda!
