X FACTOR- It's Friiiiiiight Night! (Not that you can really tell from the song choices)But..who will get to do 'Thriller'?

[Raahh]

Well, here are the song choices

GIRLS
Bella Penfold – In My Blood – Shawn Mendes
Molly Scott – Toxic – Britney Spears
Scarlett Lee – I Put a Spell on You – Annie Lennox (Iza version)
Shan Ako – The Sound of Silence – Simon and Garfunkel

GROUPS
Acacia and Aaliyah – Jump – Kriss Kross
Misunderstood – Thriller – Michael Jackson
United Vibe – Bleeding Love – Leona Lewis

OVERS
Danny Tetley – Who Wants to Live Forever - Queen
Giovanni Spano – Live and Let Die – Paul McCartney

BOYS
Anthony Russell – Demons – Imagine Dragon
Brendan Murray – Youngblood – 5 Seconds of Summer
Dalton Harris – Creep - Radiohead

So- Misunderstood get the MJ honours- and are about the only proper Hallowe'en-y song on there (apart from 'I out a spell on you').

How is the 'The Sound of Silence' scary? Or Kriss Kross, 'Jump'??

I will be cross if Dalton messes up 'Creep' - It's not going to be Wagner-esque, is it?

I will try to stay awake. I have had headache, and spent the afternoon asleep- feeling a bit better- but we will see.

Thanks Raahh. Hope you'll be feeling better soon.

They shouldn't be allowed to do Radiohead. It's Dalton though so I'll give him a chance.

I finally remembered who Ayda reminded me of.

Thanks for new thread, sterling work Raahh as ever, you’re a !

Wonder what horrors lay in store for us tonight..?

Jane

Destiny thanks. I've just seen it's on for 2 hours.

oh wow.

How??? They have lost 4 people since the start. How can it still be on as long?

Dalton doing Creep : one of my favourite songs ever!
The sound of silence for fright night? What the heck?

I posted this couple of days ago on previous thread, it’s Dalton giving a great performance at a concert in Jamaica in 2015, great voice and much more confident than he’s appeared on X Factor!

80s silence can be scary as anyone with small children knows

I have high hopes for Dalton with that song choice. 

I love how they have a theme..then have random songs Some intresting choices.

Still remember Jedward doing Ghostbusters on their fright night

Evening all! What a load of terrible song choices, they have just chosen songs with the word blood in the title & pretended they are Halloweeny!
Raahh hope you are feeling a bit better, although X factor & headache may not be the best mix

1 and half hours of ads for beds; 30 mins of singing

Singing? 80s I didn’t know X factor had singing, I thought they just got on stage & made a horrible noise

Nancy: yes, I should have used '' around the singing bit of my post! 😁
Dalton isn't bad though : they all sing better than me! ( low bar )

Where are the Halloween theme nights of old. Remember Stevie Ritchie doing Phantom of the Opera?
May or may not watch tonight, may just rely on your very excellent reviews

I’m watching that dancing crap on BBC at the moment, the band & singers they have on that are even worse than the X factor contestants & they are professionals!

Hi, watching dancey crap too, see you soon

Evening all! Fireworks night has turned into a damp squib here, display cancelled so I'm here again! Haven't had a glass of wine yet as need to pick dd up at some point (when she deigns to text me!)

Song choices seem very meh. I think the biggest fright will be Ayda's outfit

Missed Strictly, as was taking a gaggle of children out for ds birthday. Gagging for a glass of something alcoholic!

And now I have a wet cat trying to snuggle up to me

Jane that is amazing!

Hello all! How are you?

I love the exorcist music!

So many fireworks outside tonight it feels like a bloody warzone!

Yup I was right about the outfit

Evening everyone i am watching, and will be reading, but my baby hamster is snuggled in the crook of my arm so it's hard to post

Knobbie looks like an even bigger knob when he's dressed like Simon
