Maked singer thread 3

[Caaarrrl]

Hi folks. New thread for next week.

I’ve just seen an advert for Celeste and am re-thinking Harlequin

I think Robin will win as he can sing and dance well

Scrap everything - Sausage is Joss Stone. Time to feel old - there will be people in their late teens watching, for whom Joss is 'before my time'!

I think Viking is Si King, one of the hairy bikers.

One of the clues in maybe week one "Vi-King" was wrote on the rocks so Si-King...?

He also looks like he's an older, more rounded man. He's from the North East which has had Viking invasions and settlements, he also has a Viking look about him with the beard.

Last week I replayed Badgers songs and agree it's Ne-yo, clues being - periodic table poster (apparently the neon element was circled), living in a virtual world which is a reference to The Matrix movie which Keanu Reeves played the character Neo and Ne-yo took the stage name after being compared to him. And that voice!

Have you watched the video of Viking played side by side to morten harket? I've never heard si king sing but I would be very impressed if he could do such a close impression of morten.

How do you explain him singing in Morten Harket's voice?

@StrangeAddiction I've thought that since the start! The Morton Harket video spun my brain a bit tho.

Surely the only people who can sing in Morten Harkett's voice are Morten (and Chris Martin).

I will be REALLY disappointed if they 'take it off' and a hairy biker is revealed in place of MH.

Almost as disappointed as Rita was in the first series when Chameleon was unmasked.

I'm convinced sausage is Sheridan smith each week but the way she sang I'm telling you sounded too good to be her. Didn't know her vocal range was that high

Sausage does sound a lot like joss stone

I think Joss is too good to be the sausage. Was listening to her earlier. Sausage seems to be more comfortable with lower pitched songs

I don't think sausage is Joss Stone. The series was filmed in September and she announced she was 4 months pregnant in October and was on a live call from the Bahamas in this time.

I've just listened to Sheridan Smith singing I Am Telling You on Youtube - I don't think she's sausage now.

@Lotsofsocks me too: it was was totally different and much lower key. All the other sausage songs were in a lower key, just this one that sounds different.

Although she's a good mimic.

Chris Martin is consistently bad though so that would be a giveaway!

I think it's probably Sheridan. It doesn't sound like joss stones voice, or Stacey Solomon.

Has anyone seen the trailer for this week's show? Sausage is singing 'that's not my name' by the ting tings and on the ad is signing 'they call me Stacey'. Wonder if it's another double bluff and it is Stacey Solomon?

It's interesting though because the show is not responsive to public opinion. They have to anticipate the guesses so it's absolutely set up for red herrings. They totally control the narrative. That's why I like it. It can just crack on and be the show it is. This would be such a fun show to write I think.

Hairy bikers singing yeah it's not him!

@JaneJeffer I thought so until I heard this -

Kingy definitely has a higher voice and can hold a note - and you can actually here him without Dave shouting over him.

(I know I'm grasping at straws here, I'm just desperate to be right about one of them 😂)

It's also what my DH will look like in about a decade so I have a soft spot for him!

We watch the show every week now and it is such good fun.
Viking's voice is just so pure and beautiful, am convinced it is Morten Harket.
Yes to lenny Henry as blob.
Gabrielle or Macy Gray for Harlequin
Not sure of the others.
Looking forward to tomorrow, double elimination isn't it?

goood post thnaks

Another one slightly out of left field what about Natalie Casey for sausage?
She was in Two Pints of Lager, she has done a lot of stage work including Legally Blonde where she took over from DVO and a lot of narrator work including stuff like Dinner Date.

Sorry if this has been said but has anybody seen Courtney Act's Instagram post? 'These days just seem to drag on' with Reach by S club 7 playing in the background....?!

Too obvious?!
