01 Hannah Berney - "Cry Me a River / Cry Me a River" (I thought she did a brilliant job, I just love her tone of voice and she sang brilliantly) - 10/10

02 Bo Bruce - "Running Up That Hill" (I don't understand the unlikable thing personally, I think she seems genuine and sang this song like she wrote it) - 9/10

03 Vince Kidd - "Always on My Mind" (Vince is one of my favourites in the competition and although he sang is very well, he is capable of more. More than enough to see him through though) - 8/10

04 Becky Hill - "Good Luck" (Exactly the same comment as Vince) - 8/10

05 Aleks Josh - "Dream a Little Dream" (Nice to see him find his element, he sang it very well in a lazy kind of fashion. I liked it and he is beautiful)- 7/10

06 Max Milner - "Freefallin'" (Max has a great voice and he sang the whole song in tune and I couldn't really fault it, but it just didn't excite me as much as some of the others) - 7/10

07 Toni Warne - "Proud Mary" (This song has become overdone so I find it hard to really judge her although she sang it well. She again put lots of energy into it but her facial expressions put me off slightly) - 7/10

08 David Julien - "Sweet Disposition" (I really love his voice but for me tonight I wasn't as convinced as some people. His falsetto was a little weak for me. Apart from that I enjoyed it though) - 6/10

09 Ruth-Ann St. Luce - "Promise This" (I was so longing for her to do well and there were bits where I thought she was about to and then BAM... out of tune. Not a total disaster though) - 4/10

10 Cassius Henry - "Paradise" (I do think he has, like Jessie says, a 'listenable' voice but for me, this song choice was terrible and he was flat. The performance side of things was dull also) - 3/10

 

Overall, a very good night. I have to say I was very impressed. Danny and Jessie's teams were of far better standard that Tom's and Will's last weekend.

Someone just casually tweeted the result, so it's ruined for me now -_-

 

 

Not my ideal result, but I'm glad Jessie made the correct choice! Omg Danny's other bottom 2er :-o

 

I'd rank last nights like this -

 

1. Vince (Adore him, my favourite out of everyone!)

2. Hannah (loved the mash-up, never really noticed her before)

3. Toni (fantastic voice!)

4. Aleks (lovely voice and very likeable)

5. Bo (very good)

6. Cassius (wrong song choice imo, but still very good)

7. Max (found this rather boring, but I still really like him)

8. David (alright but didn't do much for me)

9. Becky (boring)

10. Ruth-Ann (absolutely abysmal!)

I accidentally looked at the spoiler Rooney posted by highlighting spoilers out of habit when I didn't actually want to know. Argh. Looked up the other halves of the bottom twos anyway since I've already spoiled the eliminations.

 

 

OUTRAGED at Max being bottom 2 but at least he's not been eliminated I guess... Hannah was the second worst of Danny's so not *too* bad a loss although she was better than all of Jessie's team. Ruth-Ann is no major loss.

 

Ruth just has to go - totally out of tune

My faves this week- Hannah, Beck & David

 

Why does everybody say Proud Mary is a Tina Turner song. Ike & Tina Turner's version was the 2nd cover version in 1970.

The original was by Creedence Clearwater Revival which featured it's writer John Fogerty (UK #9 & US #2) from summer 1969.

 

The first cover was by Checkmates Ltd. in late 1969 produced by Phil Spector

 

Here's the original

The results show needs to be on a Saturday, I hope they move it after BGT finishes next Saturday. As Antiques Roadshow is on Monday tomorrow, its usually on a Sunday.

The results show doesn't necsessarily need to be on a Saturday, live on a Sunday would do. It's just them being greedy though, it costs them more to use the studio the next day so they pre-record it and we get these leaks. Obviously usually it's only if you go looking for them, but there's always one on Twitter or whatever who has to spoil it, and why should I just not go on Twitter or Facebook in case someone ruins it?

 

But yeah, seeing as they're dead set against having to spend too much, just having the results show live an hour or so later would be the best option.

Yeah we didn't need a whole history of Proud Mary. I just know the Tina Turner version better I thought that Creedence Clearwater Revival had covered it actually.

Okay, I'm definitely not gonna look at Jark's ranking after what he's just posted :lol:

 

01 Max Milner - 'Freefallin'

02 Becky Hill - 'Good Luck'

03 Bo Bruce - 'Running Up That Hill'

04 Cassius Henry - 'Paradise'

05 Hannah Berney - 'Cry Me A River'

06 Aleks Josh - 'Dream A Little Dream Of Me'

07 David Julien - 'Sweet Disposition'

08 Toni Warne 'Proud Mary'

09 Vince Kidd - 'Always On My Mind'

10 Ruth-Ann St-Luce - 'Promise This'

 

Becky is still probably my favourite in the contest, but that was a stunning performance from Max.

Liam there's a rumour going round that the main reason why the results going out on a Saturday is because they couldn't get will.i.am to sign a contract to work on a Sunday. No idea how plausible it is, but it's possible.

 

Btw next week there are double eliminations.

Overall I thought the show was weaker than last week. It was very average, there wasn't a performance that I disliked but there also wasn't one that I absolutely loved.

 

My ranking would be:

01. Cassius Henry

02. Becky Hill

03. Bo Bruce

04. Vince Kidd

05. Max Milner

06. David Julien

07. Aleks Josh

08. Hannah Berney

09. Ruth-Ann St. Luce

10. Toni Warne

 

Cassius really surprised me, I thought he did a great job and good song choice aswell. While Toni definitely has a good voice, the whole performance just felt very karaoke. And they should stop using that show, as good as it is, it has been done way too much now on talent shows.

Btw next week there are double eliminations.

 

Are all 4 teams singing next week, as there are only 4 more weeks which includes the final.

That does sound plausible actually, I can imagine he's quite busy and as it is he's a bit 'out of it' (reportedly) as he's all over the place and only keeping in touch with his acts via texts/emails etc. BBC do this with Strictly too though, as well as I think those awful Andrew Lloyd Webber reality shows they sometimes do, but I didn't pay enough attention to those :lol: It's probably a mixture of those reasons I think, if that makes sense/

my thoughts:

 

Ruth St Ann Luce - 3/10 - How did she get through, seriously? This is meant to have people with excellent and distinct voices, yet hers is underdeveloped and definitely not final worthy. I don't get it, she isn't ready for this and that was made clear by that performance which she tried far too hard and just ended up sounding downright tragic. A really terrible decision by Jessie no matter how much she 'believes in her', and she should rightfully go tonight. Sorry for the rant, it wasn't an awful performance, but her being through annoys me greatly

David Julien - 8/10 - well it helped that that's one of my favourite songs of the last few years, but he sung that very well and has a brilliant voice. One to watch I think

Cassius Henry - 5/10 - He just didn't suit with the song at all, it was quite bland really, David Faulkner should have got through over him

Vince Kidd -7/10 - I'm warming to him a bit more since the battle rounds, this was good, I've only heard the Pet Shop Boys versions of this and not Elvis', so it could just be a repeat of that - but it sounded very unique to me

Hannah Berney - 6/10 - the merge with the otther song (whose artist name escapes me currently) seemed a bit pointless as it was basically all Justin Timberlake, other than that, she has a good voice

Toni Warne - 6/10 - That song is pretty overused, but she still sang it well.

Bo Bruce - 8/10 - I don't really get what's so unlikeable about her? I really liked this performance anyway, very understated.

Max Milner - 7/10 - I wasn't as keen on him in the battle rounds but really liked his audition, he was really good here

Becky Hill - 8/10 - Very interesting choice of song, still really like her.

Aleks Josh - 5/10 - quite boring/cruise ship really

 

 

I unfortunately gave in and looked at the spoiler, I can't say I disagree with those choices, certainly not some of the better ones

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My ranking:

 

01 Vince Kidd "Always On My Mind"

02 Becky Hill "Good Luck"

03 Cassius Henry "Paradise"

04 Max Milner "Freefallin"

05 Hannah Berney "Cry Me A River"

06 Bo Bruce "Running Up That Hill"

07 David Julien - "Sweet Disposition"

08 Aleks Josh "Dream A Little Dream Of Me"

09 Toni Warne "Proud Mary"

10 Ruth-Ann St-Luce "Promise This"

Was just thinking maybe another reason they don't do it on Sundays is because of Reggie presenting Chart Show on Radio 1 that day, and not finishing until 7pm maybe?

No it's will.i.am and Tom next week double elimination. The the same for Jessie and Danny. Then there's the semi final where all teams sing, and then the final.

Well to begin with I don't think the BBC were expecting the Voice to be as big as it has been. They've really missed a trick this year, but I think lessons will be learned and it will be live next year. More income probably generated from the voting process, and plus the ratings probably won't slide as much.

I don't think that comes in to it too much. He works for the BBC so Radio 1 could have just got cover for the Chart show for a a few weeks. Who knows really, but I expect harsh lessons have been learned and next year it will be different.

The right bottom two for Team Jessie

 

Max and Hannah were my two favourites from Team Danny though :(
