    Do you? I think,of the remaining contestants, Lauren, James & Andrea are very good singers. The rest are more good performers/entertainers.

    It's just my opinion tho. Horses for courses and all that!

    +1 Fluer hasn't sang a song without a really strong backing track.

    I was thinking the exact same thing. Had to run through the people I knew to see if I had missed one. Says a lot about SK to be honest. Still haven't got a clue who's in the band.

    Another double elimination this week

    http://www.itv.com/xfactor

    It's a cull!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,883 ✭✭✭MelanieC


    Ben is talking about his choreography so looks like he is singing something uptempo.

    I bet Only The Young will do Crocodile Rock!

    I though OTY would do something from the Lion King.Fleur as i said earlier will probably do My love is your love or Ghetto Gospel.I think Ghetto Gospel would be really good for her.


  • Registered Users Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    Song choices being revealed one by one over Twitter.

    So far...


    Only The Young - Something About the Way You Look Tonight

    Lauren - How Will I Know




    LOVE OTY's choice, they did a great version of that in the audition stage.

    Lauren actually also did her song in the audition stage funnily enough.



    Next clue is for I Will Always Love You...so looks like Andrea is probably singing that...UGH!

    Hmmm ok it's actually been revealed that it's Ben who'll be singing I Will Always Love You.

    That is SO wrong in so many ways!

    It could be interesting. I don't know of any versions sung by someone with Ben's type of voice.


  • Registered Users Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    SK - Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me. Bleh!


  • Registered Users Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    Full list



    Boys
    Andrea Faustini - I Have Nothing

    Girls
    Lauren Platt - How Will I Know?

    Groups
    Only The Young - Something About The Way You Look Tonight

    Stereo Kicks - Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me

    Overs
    Ben Haenow - I Will Always Love You

    Fleur East - I'm Every Woman

    Stevi Ritchie - I'm Still Standing




    Mostly predictable as usual. Looking forward to OTY and Fleur. I hope Lauren doesn't do a slowed down version of How Will I Know again. Boring!

    Looking forward to OTY & Lauren, hope Lauren keeps the original uptempo version though, it would really suit her. Fun & young!


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    After seeing those song choices, I'm reluctant to put Stevi in my predictions - it's a good choice for him... On the other hand, apart from Stereo Kicks, everyone else in the competition deserves to be there more... Don't know what to do.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,883 ✭✭✭MelanieC


    Extremely predictable as usual. I just knew Stevi would be doing I'm Still Standing,no doubt he'll have some mad choreography as well which will mean he'll be gasping for breath again. He's being set up.

    Looking forward to OTY. SK - a bit meh as per but maybe James will be able to salvage it.

    We may be in for a shock elimination this weekend - I'm thinking maybe Ben or Fleur. I would be delighted to see either of them go.

    Really? Both of them have sung their songs already this series. Nothing we haven't seen before from them.

    Ben's choice - wtf?? Unless he does something radical with it, it simply won't suit him.

    I actually hope the double elimination backfires and Stevi sails through. Channel Christopher Maloney, Stevi....you can do it! Give this show the winner it deserves!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 793 ✭✭✭Kunkka


    Stereokicks will survive with that song choice in my opinion. Stevi is gonzo sadly :(:o

    Probably Only The Young then I'd say...... tough to call though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,317 ✭✭✭gavmcg92


    It could be interesting. I don't know of any versions sung by someone with Ben's type of voice.

    Here you go. Chris Cornell during an Obama fundraiser in 2008. Going to be a complete copy of this I would assume. Absolutely love it. With Ben singing this, he has the potential of stealing the show.



  • Registered Users Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    Ugh I think that's a horrible version! But yeah that is highly likely to be the one he'll sing!


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,317 ✭✭✭gavmcg92

    Gives me shivers if I'm honest. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 876 ✭✭✭Euphoria Intensifies


    Quite like that Chris Cornell version actually - first time I'd heard it. I think you're spot on that that's the version Ben will sing.

    Stevi's choice was SO predictable. Looking forward to it though :D

    I did think Ben was being set up with that song but now ive heard that he will probably walk it.
