Live shows start tonight, with a performance from the girls themselves! SO HYPED!

Excited to see which groups manage to work well together!

Posted by: Mr. C. Joel Oct 24 2020, 02:05 PM

Is this live or do we think it's now pre-recorded?

Posted by: Zak Oct 24 2020, 02:08 PM

Very excited for the performance. Is it at the beginning or end? End would be better since Strictly viewers will be tuning in (if it's on yet idk).

Yes it's the first week the contestants actually dance, so should be a pretty popular episode. So I am hoping they save the performance for the end.

I'm going to assume it was pre-recorded.

It said on the applause show that the performance would be at 7pm every show.

All of the girls' performance looks have been seen on insta apart from Jades.. either she was still getting ready while they filmed for IG ads or she isnt performing with them..

Posted by: 1hit1der Oct 24 2020, 03:50 PM

Could they open it with Jade’s scene from the video? Since she opens the song with her first verse lol

Posted by: 365 Oct 24 2020, 04:10 PM

I think Jade maybe has filmed her part in a studio on her own and it'll be on a screen and will then cut to the other girls maybe?

Posted by: shindymindy Oct 24 2020, 04:29 PM

Jade just shared a story about not being there and said something about the ‘girls smashing it’ so I’m guessing she’s not performing at all?

Posted by: Mr. C. Joel Oct 24 2020, 04:38 PM

I think it's pre-recorded from Chris' tweet earlier about the new single being stuck in his head.

Either that or the girls will perform as a 3.

Either way, I would rather have a performance even as a 3 than nothing which is what we first thought.

The whole thing was pre recorded last night. I mean as in maybe they pre recorded the performance a week ago.

OMFG NOOOO.

Can they plz do a different song and save Sweet Melody for when Jade is back??? 😭😭😭

I desperately need to see Jade perform SM cheeseblock.png

Posted by: Slick Oct 24 2020, 04:50 PM

I'm really looking forward to this episode. The show has been great so far, looking forward to seeing what happens next.

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 04:51 PM

Also, I really hope their performance is not in the first 15 mins! Im on my way home from work now so I'd miss it 😭

Posted by: Mr. C. Joel Oct 24 2020, 04:58 PM

Obviously it's gutting Jade isn't there to perform BUT at least we get the EMA's performance in the not too distant future.

If that wasn't in the pipeline I think I'd also say perform something else tongue.gif

Posted by: Billy. Oct 24 2020, 05:17 PM

Ooh this is a bit ropey I think?

Posted by: troylovesmusic Oct 24 2020, 05:19 PM

They KILLED it ! I missed Jade’s presence but they girls made up for her absence for sure ! wub.gif

Posted by: Mr. C. Joel Oct 24 2020, 05:20 PM

Why does everything always go so wrong?

Good performance but don't open the show with it sad.gif

Posted by: jsweetxe Oct 24 2020, 05:20 PM

They would've benefitted from head mics I think, not sure why they only use them for Power when Sweet Melody definitely needs them.

ALSO not sure why they decided to now sing the chorus live with one of their most choreo heavy songs..

Posted by: Billy. Oct 24 2020, 05:28 PM

Since September we’re good, the blonde guy who isn’t the showman has improved!

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 05:30 PM

Opened the show. But thankfully I made it! I enjoyed the performance but I think I missed Jade (just Jade stan problems I guess lmao)

Since September:
This is flat. Omg. That was awful? tearsmile.gif So lackluster. Jacob needs more vocals.

Posted by: shindymindy Oct 24 2020, 05:38 PM

The girls performance was great

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 05:39 PM

Nostalia:
These are very good together. As a first performance it was solid - room for improvement ofc but a good and promising start! Loved the song choices.

Posted by: troylovesmusic Oct 24 2020, 05:41 PM

Since September- They have potential I love there energy there was some flat moments but I think they should definitely go through next week

Nostalia- VOCALS for days I think they need to work on there blend a bit more as a group on stage but considering they were a member down they done a great job !

Posted by: jsweetxe Oct 24 2020, 05:45 PM

Nostalia(?) weren't great. Tyler was *so* off, her high harmony was very pitchy and off-putting. I preferred the performance from the middle 8 onwards. The belts / riffs were very flat/sharp at times. Quite disappointed actually.

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 05:45 PM

I'm loving the production on this show.

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 05:52 PM

New Priority:
Good. Not great, but the potential is there. They need to figure out what their roles within the band are, more. But it can work. Zeekay and Adam were the standouts. Adam really is very early *NSync Justin vibes.

Posted by: Billy. Oct 24 2020, 05:52 PM

Jesy really suits the judging role - I felt like in the auditions she was a bit muted but she is shining in the ‘live’ environment!


Posted by: troylovesmusic Oct 24 2020, 05:53 PM

New Priority -There vocals were actually better than I thought it was going to be. They done a decent job.

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 05:58 PM

Jasper Blue:
Favourite so far. I wish it was a better song choice for them as a group, but other than that. The strongest group so far!

Posted by: troylovesmusic Oct 24 2020, 06:00 PM

Jasper Blue - I like them all as people but there was a few dodgy vocal moments . I want them to get another chance though !

Posted by: troylovesmusic Oct 24 2020, 06:04 PM

YChange - best performance so far in my opinion LOVED that !!

Posted by: HausofGhibli Oct 24 2020, 06:06 PM

YChange SMASHED it, best by FAR

Posted by: Cameron Oct 24 2020, 06:06 PM

YChange were alright, but I found their whole performance quite dated?

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 06:07 PM

YChange:
Well, I guess we know who is winning just by the production value. laugh.gif They work great together, just not to my tastes, musically. But they're definitely the strongest "group".

Posted by: jsweetxe Oct 24 2020, 06:09 PM

YChange were incredible. I really hope they win.

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 06:13 PM

Melladaze:
I lowkey, like their name! This is AWFUL. Omg. More Fifth Harmony than Little Mix oops. But not good at all.

Controversially, I think they're the only band that sound like they'd fit in today's music scene! All the others seemed dated to me but these guys seemed the most current tearsmile.gif

Posted by: troylovesmusic Oct 24 2020, 06:15 PM

Melladaze- They’ve actually improved ! there were my least favourite heading in to the lives it wasn’t perfect but they did an ok job there . Not my favourite tonight but not the worst .

Posted by: 365 Oct 24 2020, 06:17 PM

Not Jax Jones getting the better performance slot.

Also I had no idea there were guest performers? Did anyone else?

Ychange also my fav?

Posted by: Billy. Oct 24 2020, 06:17 PM

I’m glad Since September escaped the bottom two they have so much potential!

Probably the right bottom two, but I don’t think the girl vocal group were that good either

Posted by: troylovesmusic Oct 24 2020, 06:18 PM

I mean the girls could have performed here instead of Jax Jones but I suppose it would have been weird for Jax Jones to open the show laugh.gif

Posted by: Zak Oct 24 2020, 06:19 PM

I can't believe they've given the prime performance spot to Jax Jones instead of promoting their own single lol what is THISSS

Posted by: George.keh Oct 24 2020, 06:28 PM

Well that was a mess- Jaspar Blue we’re far better in both performances

Posted by: JulianNial Oct 24 2020, 06:28 PM

They saved the wrong group.

No it wasn't announced? Odd cause it could've brought in more viewers?

But yeah, them giving Jax Jones the better performance slot was ODD.

Re: the show, Mellodaze were horrible in that final sing-off for me, whoever was riffing was really really off key it was so painful.

I'm mad i can't tweet about Liam anymore sad.gif he was so hot

Posted by: Calum Oct 24 2020, 06:29 PM

YChange absolutely stole the show tonight - that performance was amazing! wub.gif Really enjoyed New Priority too! Definitely room for improvement with Since September, and overall it was good, but I'm glad they've made it through to up their performance a bit!

I wasn't massive on the girl vocal group's performance. Melladaze were an absolute mess both in their first performance and the second lmao, can't believe they were saved drama.gif Jasper Blue weren't perfect, but you could tell they were fighting to stay with that performance of Walk Me Home, and their first was decent. Such a shame.

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 06:30 PM

That decision was awful!!

Not only Melladaze winning but UNANIMOUSLY!??? Ladies plz... 😭😭

Posted by: Mr. C. Joel Oct 24 2020, 06:31 PM

HATE this show.

I love the girls but the show feel so cheap, literally has no budget, Jax Jones stole the best performance slot...

They saved the wrong group.

Hate to say it but this was hyped up as a totally different show, with a different format and TALENT.

It's full of acts that wouldn't even make it past week 1 of X-Factor

Posted by: Hallo'Riheen Oct 24 2020, 06:31 PM

I feel the names of the bands are all terrible ngl laugh.gif it’s like the names they’d give the losing band in Popstars The Rivals. They deffo made the right decision in the sing off, Melladaze aren’t the best vocally but performed better and have a way better chance of actually being successful.

Posted by: JosephStyles Oct 24 2020, 06:33 PM

Ychange were absolutely brilliant!!! Most of the others were varying shades of good, but Melladaze were really bad sad.gif They did not deserve to stay! Their performance skills weren't even that strong?

THIS it all the feels of a bad popstars the rivals even the houses laugh.gif

Posted by: Zak Oct 24 2020, 06:37 PM

I thought only the rap group was good. Girl vocals were okay. The instrument group was meh, they were my favourite previously but I think that's just coz I fancy Jacob and he's one of the best vocalists. Hope they step up next week.

Definitely wrong decision keeping the girl dance group imo. Even in the sing-off they sounded pretty awful.

Posted by: Tafty Oct 24 2020, 06:37 PM

YChange are definitely the most polished of them all and are surely the winners? I just wish their music style was more interesting.

I think most of the groups showed potential, but it wasn't (and won't be) enough to counteract YChange, I don't think.

Edit: Also, I genuinely don't know a GOOD band name. Lmao. Band names always take time to get used to (at least for me aha)

You do realise cause of COVID a lot of changes probably had to be made to how they wanted the live shows in particular to be formatted . I don’t think it would have been the same at all .

Posted by: troylovesmusic Oct 24 2020, 06:44 PM

I feel like Jasper Blue had a weaker first performance than Meladaze but I preferred Jasper Blue in the sing off and as a group I preferred Jasper Blue more .

Posted by: Sonia Fowler 🎃 Oct 24 2020, 07:05 PM

I feell like the show would better with a public vote??

I think Chris said there will be a public vote in the Final

Posted by: Sonia Fowler 🎃 Oct 24 2020, 08:34 PM

But then what the viewers get to do it allready feels like a niche compitition, i would have expected from the live shows the viewers can have a say

Posted by: Liаm Oct 24 2020, 08:49 PM

The girl dance group was diabolical, I don't think Japser Blue really worked in the way I wanted them to or the way they could have but they definitely had more to give. It's odd that the girls made all the fuss over making sure to differentiate Melladaze as a dance group and then they didn't really do a lot, it really left a lot to be desired vocally and choreo wise, I think the other girl group had better energy and performance overall!

YChange were on another level to the others tonight, the girl vocal group and the boyband were alright but I expected more of both of them.

Posted by: jlj Oct 24 2020, 09:03 PM

SO!

My thoughts were I loved the girls opening performance although for some reason I expected it to have been recorded with Jade (pre her isolation) but they did so well with one member down.

As for the groups I wasn’t keen much on Since September’s choice of song. I didn’t really think it worked and it all sounded a bit flat.

Nostalia sounded great together and I loved their harmonies. They’ll likely be better when the member who couldn’t perform ones back next week.

New Priority were BAD except for Zeekay so pretty much felt the same as Jesy. The rest I think were all chosen for looks the vocals were bad the choreo was ropey yeah not great but I think in a public vote they’d do well.

Jasper Blue weren’t all that great for a show like this. I think it’s hard for mixed groups as pop mixed groups like these aren’t like trendy no more they were verging on like S Club / Steps and that style of band wouldn’t work on this industry.

Y Change are by far the best and the only act who’d work in today’s scene like Haus said I agree on this. They might not be the most popular on a show like this but they’re the most polished.

Melladaze we’re better than the comments seemed. Like I actually rather liked them.

My main issue was I wish they’d reveal Little Mix’s scores all at the end instead of after each performance. Like score them in secret and then reveal the leaderboard from top to bottom just before the sing off. I didn’t like the idea of them doing it like that. I mean if it was like strictly where there’s a public vote as well as a judges score fair enough but it lacked tension.

Posted by: Spiceboy Oct 24 2020, 09:15 PM

I thought that Melladaze were the worse sounding group but that the right group went home as I could see Melladaze actually releasing and being an active band, Jasper Blue I couldn't see working at all unfortunately even if I quite liked them!

Posted by: JesyMix Oct 25 2020, 03:01 AM

Since September - I like their name. Not a flattering song choice at all but I still think they have loads of potential
Nostalia - Loved the song choices. Their vocals were great individually but it didn't quite come together as a group for me
New Priority - Jesy was right. They were severely lacking in energy. I don't mind them going next unless they step it up next week
Jasper Blue - They said they didn't want to be cheesy but they were. Jordan's bum note made me cringe. Melina is a star.
YChange - I was doubtful about them but they were easily the best performance of the night. They felt more like a guest act.
Melladaze - Very polished visually but the vocals need work. Honestly, as the dance group, they should be allowed to lipsync. They're pretty far along for being a new group so I think they have potential to improve.

This would be so much better!

Posted by: troylovesmusic Oct 25 2020, 01:25 PM

YChange and Nostalia are definitely my favourite groups hopefully both will make the final . Since September have potential I think but they picked the wrong song with better song choices they could be great . I would say they should be the final 3 based of the first live show !

New Priority were ok but a little dull with only Zeekay standing out. Melladaze are definitely the worst I don’t see it for them as a group

Posted by: GhoulOdyssey Oct 25 2020, 01:32 PM

Yeah that was an awful song choice for Since September, but they definitely have potential. (though they really should've tried to get some drummers auditioning, it feels slightly off without one)

Yep. That's what was missing for me! Isn't it the drummer that's usually the most popular member too? Harry (McFly), Ashton (5SOS), Phil Collins (Genesis) and (I'd probably argue) Travis (blink) etc..

Them playing together just sounded so flat and off key to me.

Posted by: Zak Oct 25 2020, 02:55 PM

It only got 2m viewers again despite Strictly getting 9.4m after it . Yikes. They'll probably never speak of it again when it's done.

Adds further fuel to the fire realising that the Jax performance probs would have had 3-4m viewers (with Strictly viewers pre-tuning in) whilst their Sweet Melody one probs got 1.5m or something.
