Does anyone else think that song for Fleur my well be very sexual and a little off putting. Not to mention it will be another uptempo with rapping song, she needs to show something else soon. Cant believe I'm saying it but she needs a ballad in a flowing gown.

To strip away any individuality she has? No thanks. Why do you need her to be de-sexualised anyway. Her image is sexual and endearing, she can keep at it where i'm sitting.

 

Aside, Only The Young getting all sorts of promo. This could be there moment *. ~ http://www.popjustice.com/briefing/only-th...country/131963/

Me and Jack have been saying all week that OTY should sing Boom Clap ;)
Quick Fluer, get the full body veil out and sing Dido!
'Boom Clap' really is the perfect choice for Only the Young, looking forward to that *.*

Because this is X factor, whos last year winner was Sam "sex appeal of an orange" Bailey. Overly sexual women have never done well on the show, you can be hot without being off putting, like Alexadra Burke got right during her win.

 

Plus everyone is banging on about not another ballad from others well this will be Fluer's 4th song in a row with Rapping and uptempo, it works both ways she needs to show some versatility too. Not to mention she has gone from sexy first song, to singing around a pole 2nd song, to a 3rd song which is about prostitution is it not?

Quick Fluer, get the full body veil out and sing Dido!

 

Bitch, Dido is a MILF, sexual does not begin to describe her.

Andrea Faustini, Listen by Beyoncé - Predictable and if I'm being honest not bothered about it. Andrea's such a non event for me. He's a nice guy and can sing well at times (when he isn't beig so throaty). But I think he needs to change it up a bit or at least sing a song by a guy to highlight his tone and show he can be a versatile and do well in today's market (which at the moment, I think he'll just end up with a mother's day cover album if he does win).

 

Jack Walton, Eye Of The Tiger by Survivor from Rocky - A great song that everyone knows, I hope he can do it justice.

 

Jake Quickenden - She’s Like The Wind by Patrick Swayze from Dirty Dancing - I think he'll give a nice performance.

 

Paul Akister, Try A Little Tenderness by Otis Redding from The Commitments - Interesting song choice and think Paul will do well with teh song.

 

Lauren Platt, Let It Go by Demi Lovato from Frozen - I think she'll sing it well but can we please let this song go? :lol:

 

Lola Saunders, When You Believe by Mariah Carey from The Prince Of Egypt - I feel that this is going to be a mess. It's a big song and I don't think Lola has the capability to handle it without lowering it a key or two.

 

Only The Young, Boom Clap by Charli XCX from The Fault In Our Stars - Great song choice! Especially after last weeks disaster. Really looking forward to their performance.

 

Stereo Kicks, Let It Be/Hey Jude (Medley) by The Beatles from Across The Universe - Lol.

 

Ben Haenow, I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing by Aerosmith from Armageddon - I think his voice will suit the song well and he'll nail it.

 

Fleur East, Lady Marmalade by Pink, Mya, Christina Aguilera and Lil Kym from Moulin Rouge - Fleur will likely give a great performance of this! She could also have a nice vocal moment or two in the song as the original does have some big notes in it.

 

Jay James, Skyfall by Adele from Skyfall - Not sure how I feel about this. I like the song but not sure if Jay James will suit it.

 

Stevi Ritchie, Footloose by Kenny Loggins from Footloose - Expecting him to have everyone on their feet and give a fun performance! :lol:

Ok just listened to Boom Clap and wondering if you are all deaf? What is that hideous song and why do so many people like it? Is the girl who sings it popular round here or something?

 

I am so out of touch :(

My thoughts:

 

Andrea Faustini

Listen by Beyoncé from Dreamgirls - meh. One of my favourite songs of all time, but it's one of those songs only Beyoncé should sing (aside from the select few people like Alexandra Burke and Melanie Amaro who can do it justice). I like Andrea but this is the first song everyone would have thought of for him and it's getting boring he gets a big ballad every single week...)

 

Jack Walton

Eye Of The Tiger by Survivor from Rocky - odd song choice but I'm sure he'll just do the usual passable but kind of boring Ed Sheeran-y version of it.

 

Jake Quickenden

She’s Like The Wind by Patrick Swayze from Dirty Dancing - better song choice for him than last week, but still pretty dull to be honest and his voice is too weak and average whatever he sings.

 

Paul Akister

Try A Little Tenderness by Otis Redding from The Commitments - really good song choice! It's perfect for his soulful voice, I'm quite looking forward to this despite not being a huge fan of his.

 

Lauren Platt

Let It Go by Demi Lovato from Frozen - amazing choice! Hugely cliche/predictable but she's definitely got the pipes for it and it allows her to show her voice and emote with the song whilst still being a relevant and current song.

 

Lola Saunders

When You Believe by Mariah Carey from The Prince Of Egypt - again, very predictable but it really suits her voice. I just wish she'd sing something a bit different, I know Lauren sings ballads all the time but even she did an upbeat part of Happy at least :lol: and she just isn't as boring as Lola is in danger of becoming.

 

Only The Young

Boom Clap by Charli XCX from The Fault In Our Stars - as everyone has said already, flawless choice. I really do believe this could be their E.T. (not saying they'll win but it could easily be the moment they settle on what kind of band they should become etc.)

 

Stereo Kicks

Let It Be/Hey Jude (Medley) by The Beatles from Across The Universe - if this is acapella as rumoured (even if it's only partly), then surely this is going to be as painful as Overload's sing-off was in week 1? :lol:

 

Ben Haenow

I Don’t Want To Miss A Thing by Aerosmith from Armageddon - yawn. Hugely predictable, and I hate his voice even if it does suit this.

 

Fleur East

Lady Marmalade by Pink, Mya, Christina Aguilera and Lil Kym from Moulin Rouge - brilliant choice, it allows her to bring a sassy and confident performance and just embodies her "aura" really.

 

Jay James

Skyfall by Adele from Skyfall - OH GOD. If anything could be as awful as last week's funeral march version of The Proclaimers, it's Jay trying to sing like Adele.

 

Stevi Ritchie

Footloose by Kenny Loggins from Footloose - oh dear.

Only The Young and Fleur will be amazing :wub: Especially hyped for Only The Young. I really do think they could do a Little Mix.

 

And Sammy, I appreciate alll your opinions, I really do, but they are wrong.

Oh Sammy, never change. :lol:

 

It's one of the songs of the summer. It's an incredible pop song imo and will suit Only The Young down to the ground. :heart:

I only speak the truth :P

 

 

I am living for "Let it go" and "Boom clap" to be performed tonight :cheer:

 

Lauren especially is going to be amazing.

I'm pretty sure Lauren will be last, or near it. The last performing girl was 10th week 1 and 2, and she was 10th then 4th herself. A boy and an over have closed the show so far, and LIG seems quite likely to be a moment so I wouldn't be surprised at all if she closed the show.
Has the running order leaked?

 

No, it never leaks :P

 

Hopefully Jack gets a later slot this week, he was 6th in week 1 and 1st last week!

Be nice if Simon stuck one of his overs first, seen as it has been 2 of the boys first so far.
Also OTY are very likely to be near the start I'd imagine, they were second to last for both of the first two weeks!

I'd guess at the continuing of trying to get rid of Jake by putting him first.

 

Stevi will continue to be near the end and I think Stereo Kicks will close it.

I'd guess at the continuing of trying to get rid of Jake by putting him first.

 

If they were trying to get rid of him, he'd have been near the start already. He was in the second half for both previous weeks.
