I never realised how much I loved Rebecca! :lol: But those were really solid performances. :wub:

1. Cher Lloyd - Stay (not a fan but first time she did this it was a 'moment' and surely bought her a few more weeks in the contest)

2. Rebecca Ferguson - Sweet Dreams

3. Rebecca Ferguson - Show Me Love

4. Matt Cardle - Just The Way You Are

5. Matt Cardle - When Love Takes Over

6. Matt Cardle - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

8. Katie Waissel - Help

9. One Direction - All You Need Is Love

10. Rebecca Ferguson - Candle In The Wind

 

Special mention to Bewitched and I Wanna Be Like You by Katie, basically anything else by Rebecca and all of Matt's other performances apart from Bleeding Love up until week 8.

I've tried and tried to come up with an impartial list and honestly, Cher would be about 7 out of the top 10 at least! :( So I'll do one for Cher's live show performances and then one with a mix of others. I think it's because Cher's performances are the only performances I still listen too (well I'll be listening to One Direction 'Torn' now...) in MP3 form so I've gotten used to them. (YES! EVEN 'LOVE THE WAY YOU LIE' :drama:)

 

Cher:

01. 'Turn My Swag On'

02. 'Stay'

03. 'It's A Hard Knock Life'

04. 'Clapping Song'/'Get Ur Freak On'

05. 'Sorry Seems to Be the Hardest Word'/'Mockingbird'

06. 'Everytime'

07. 'Imagine'

08. 'Just Be Good To Me'

09. 'Girlfriend' (The rap section really does make this brilliant!)

10. 'Where Is The Love?'/'I Gotta Feeling'

 

Completely solid performances! 'Nothin' On You' would be number 10 if you don't want to include her audition song...

 

Others:

01. One Direction 'Torn'

02. Aiden Grimshaw 'Mad World'

03. Matt Cardle 'Baby One More Time'

04. Aiden Grimshaw 'Nothing Compares 2 U'

05. Trey-C 'One'

06. Rebecca Ferguson 'Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)'

07. Katie Waissel 'I Wanna Be Like You'

08. Matt Cardle 'Just the Way You Are'

09. One Direction 'All You Need Is Love'

10. One Direction 'Chasing Cars'

Jonjo that really is quite ridiculous.

What is? The fact that I decided to leave out Cher and give her, her own list or my lists in general? :lol: (Maybe both? Haha) But I honestly, really have tried and I think my looning over Cher is just at an all-time high at the moment. :( It's also not fair, seeing as like I said before I have cher's performances on MP3, so she has that advantage - and is probably the reason why I can't rank the songs whilst she's in it. As for my list, meh. We all know my taste in music is ridiculous :lol: (So there's nothing new there)

I was finding it hard to not have my top 10 basically all Cher songs too! :(

She's literally the only reason I watched it every week, I really didn't care much about any of the other acts.

Really looking forward to whatever she releases!

I had to jiggle mine around to try and not be filled with 10 Rebecca performances :lol: I delagated some down to an honorable mention, but still had 6 Rebecca songs in my top 10 :o Including a joint number 1 :drama: I don't care though, I'm slightly in love with her still. I will die when her album comes out :wub: Nice taste btw, I love Cher too :heart:

01 Matt Cardle - The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

02 Mary Byrne - It's A Man's Man's Man's World

03 Aiden Grimshaw - Mad World

04 John Adeleye - A Song For You

05 Rebecca Ferguson - Show Me Love

06 Cher Lloyd - Stay

07 Matt Cardle - Nights In White Satin

08 Matt Cardle - Baby One More Time

09 Rebecca Ferguson - Teardrops

10 Aiden Grimshaw - Nothing Compares 2 U

 

I don't remember any others that I liked. A lot of Rebecca and One Direction's performances just merge into one, big boring mess for me to the point I can't tell which is which. In terms of high points it's better than last years, though, and probably better than 2007 too. But well below any other year.
