November 19, 20177 yr I reckon Kevin will duet with Nicole, seeing as she seemingly does a duet with her contestant every year as it's cheaper than getting someone from outside the show. And every year she tries to out-sing the contestant too, it's hilarious.

November 19, 20177 yr Loved Graces song tonight, her original songs are vert memorable, i think at this point id like her to win but will settle for her coming second as i do think she has a great shot at having a career. I think the right 4 were eliminated this week to over the 2 nights.
November 20, 20177 yr I didn't even vote tonight as I really did not care much for anyone :nocheer: Kevin was the best just about in a 7/10 way but didn't wow me :( I was soooo disappointed by Holly's messy rendition of 'Love Me Harder' in particular as that song is an all-time favourite. Lloyd is my #1 with considerable ease now.
November 20, 20177 yr ^ i can't believe how much they messed with the backing track. like, that's the best thing about the song?! - i never thought i'd see the day but i feel like i'm totally over this now.. they need to change the format back. i'm all for change but they've changed everything that was good about it. they're basically shooting themselves in the foot by having absolutely no catch-up value at all. you have 10-ish minutes to vote & someone leaves the same night? why would you bother catching up saturday night on sunday knowing who's gone.. you just watch sunday's instead. it makes zero sense. and the judges vote & going to deadlock was literally the most exciting part about the show.. WHY would you remove that? it always got them headlines & helped build suspense.
November 20, 20177 yr Rak-Su were my favourite act this week. 'Mona Lisa' is probably my least favourite of their original songs so far, but nevertheless it's still another catchy offering and I find them to be likeable as a group! Lloyd & Kevin weren't as great as they were last week. Lloyd has a beautiful and effortless voice (overall he's still my favourite contestant), and Kevin always sings passionately - but neither song choice quite clicked for them imo. I really hope Lloyd has a brilliant song choice next week that provides "a moment"; I would love to see him make the final! He may not be typical X Factor in the sense of finding a "ready-made popstar", but I think his vocals are undeniable and I could definitely see him having a successful album. Lloyd possibly becoming the UK's answer to Josh Groban is a good call (I think Nicole said that). I'm really struggling to warm to Grace. I've never been wowed by her voice and I find her unexciting as a performer, but she is a good songwriter and Hesitate is my favourite of her originals so far. The Cutkelvins' song was quite good, but Shereen continues to serve wobbly vocals... I wish she had better control. :( Her brother who started singing at the beginning is better, currently. Eek at Holly. The production on Love Me Harder was bizarre and her vocals were too harsh - the performance just seemed really "off". A huge misfire! Rai-Elle's performance came across as a strange mix of dated & childish. I wasn't surprised to see either of them leaving the competition. That said, both were better than Matt murdering Fallin' :drama: He definitely should have gone yesterday, alongside Holly. The right two acts went on Saturday. I never understood the appeal of Sean & Conor (in fairness the brother who did most of the singing was reasonable by himself, but when both of them sang together they sounded dreadful... and the brother who did the rapping & grinned his way throughout them... just, no). I'd say this was their best performance of the four weeks, although that's not saying much. Meanwhile, Sam was so incredibly out of his depth throughout this whole process... it was overwhelmingly clear why he didn't make it to Six Chair in the first place. His rendition of 'Oops' has to be one of the most amateur contestant performances in the show's history? He was really off-time and he came across like he was (barely) going through the motions. It was certainly high time he left (and I'm still :drama: that he stayed over Alisah last week).
November 20, 20177 yr Finally fast forwarded to the elimination :wub: Gotta hand it to the novelty act, she was composed and conddent whilst Holly showed herself up acting like that and now her last evee X Faccy photos plastered all over will be of her whingein.

November 20, 20177 yr X Factor need to go back to their Roots next year, I'm actually starting to consider not bothering with it if it's going to be like this again.
November 20, 20177 yr I stopped. I fastforward everything except Grace and I never bother to catch up once finding out who went - excpet Rae Elle obviously Omg - Holly even had the FAMOUS line, 'this isn't the last you'll see of me!!' - only One Direction were ever right about that when they said it!!
November 20, 20177 yr Next week's theme will be 'Rule Britannia' so basically any song by a British artist. All acts will go head to head in both nights and presumably there will be a single elimination each night. Will be on 19:30 both evenings. Guest acts are of course James Arthur and Ed Sheeran.
November 20, 20177 yr I mean all six acts will perform on the same night.. Also there will still be a prize fight apparently, between the top 2.
November 20, 20177 yr Oh right - I was confused by the advert as well like, wtf? The should have just said all acts will be singing both nights as they are head to head each week!
November 20, 20177 yr Author Yeah it's really... limp this series. Like I've missed a show or two and not bothered to catch up because it's so boring and the format is a bit bland, like Kye said because it all happens so quickly on one night, if you miss it you see who's gone on Twitter and what's the point :lol: With the results being on Sunday at least if you missed Saturday's show you could just watch the next day before the results and still join in watching the results. That was one of the best parts for me, the eliminations actually felt like an event with the tension of drama of the bottom 2 and judges' vote. Now it's just them getting chucked off at 20:58 and rushed off stage because I'm A Celeb needs to start :lol: The standard is really low too, like 2012/2013 low, there hasn't really bveen a contestant all series I've proper LOVED as a contestant, everyone had down moments or I just haven't taken to them. Grace is easily my favourite but she's not got that oomph or amazingness that I'd count her as a proper all time X Factor fave or anything. I don't HATE watching now or I wouldn't bother, but if i miss a show now I'm not fussed and it feels kinda like habit or that I just have nothing to better to do than watch it. It tends to be Saturday's I miss if i'm going out, but on a Sunday night I'm never doing anything and I don't watch Blue Planet and tend not to bother with Strictly results because I always see the spoiler on Saturday night, so X Factor is just there to watch.
November 20, 20177 yr It really dosen’t make sense them doing a prize fight during the Semi Final especially with two leaving as well . As you pretty much know it will be between the two acts that win . :huh:
November 20, 20177 yr They'll make sure the top two will be Rak-Su and Grace to cement their ideology of what should be the top two come the final. What happens to the rest of them is a toss-up I'd say, though Lloyd is probably a safe bet for the final. Then it depends how they want to treat the other three.
November 23, 20177 yr So if there’s a prize fight still does that mean 6 perform Saturday and1 eliminated 1 wins so only 4 perform sunday ? Edited November 23, 20177 yr by 777666jason
