October 25, 201410 yr Author I forgot I have the android app on my phone too :lol: 2x Lauren 2x OTY 1x Lola (the latter two as they're in trouble but I like them, the former as my overall fave)
October 25, 201410 yr Dreading next week and Halloween songs. I'm trying so hard to like this series of the X factor (mainly for Mel B but even she seems to realise it is shit).
October 25, 201410 yr 3x Fleur East 2x Lola Saunders Paul was my 2nd favourite but Lola needs my votes more and she's normally better. Fleur was my favourite of tonight easily and so got 3 votes.
October 25, 201410 yr Author Facebook likes for the pics of each performance, after 40 mins of the show being over: Andrea Faustini 13.6k Lauren Platt 10.4k Fleur East 9k Lola Saunders 7.7k Ben Haenow 7.3k Jay James 7.1k Paul Akister 6.9k Jake Quickenden 3.8k Stevi Richie 3.7k Jack Walton 3.2k Only The Young 1.7k Stereo Kicks 1.4k (split across three pictures?! Would probably be higher if there was just one idk) I know they've shown to be less reliable at predicting the bottom 2 than there were shown to be in the Aussie version (more or less every week they were bang on), but it's interesting to see how they correlate with the bottom 2. I'll do an update tomorrow.

October 25, 201410 yr Seeing those results gives me a little more confidence in Lola surviving but they had Stereo Kicks about that high up the order last week and they were still bottom 3...
October 25, 201410 yr 01 Fleur East 02 Paul Akister 03 Jack Walton 04 Only The Young 05 Stereo Kicks 06 Andrea Faustini 07 Lauren Platt 08 Ben Haenow (I like his voice, however I have to agree with Mel that there was no emotion) 09 Jay James 10 Jake Quickenden 11 Lola Saunders 12 Stevi Ritchie (just NO) Edited October 25, 201410 yr by Luke_
October 25, 201410 yr Halloween next week? If they survive I hope that Only The Young do a version of Things That Go Bump In The Night.
October 25, 201410 yr I actually don't have a clue what I want to hear for Halloween week Possibly stay (Shakespeare's sister), ghost (Ella Henderson), e.t. (Katy) and haunted (Taylor)
October 25, 201410 yr I actually don't have a clue what I want to hear for Halloween week Possibly stay (Shakespeare's sister), ghost (Ella Henderson), e.t. (Katy) and haunted (Taylor) The X Factor are uninspired but surely they wouldn't use Ghost next week when they used it in week 1 of the finals :lol: that would be a new low for them I think OTY and Jake are in danger
October 25, 201410 yr They're definitely gonna stretch the boundaries of the theme next week like when Craig sang Set Fire To The Rain (how exactly is that Hallowe'en-based?)
October 25, 201410 yr Interesting that on xtra factor Jack has said the issue they had is they wanted him to dance and perform and rip his shirt open at the end of the song and he wouldn't do it. Seems weird to be taking the moral high ground when he has just done a naked shoot and doing a bit of performance and dancing wouldn't hurt him tbh.
October 25, 201410 yr The Mel / Jack drama was apparently about his performance. They wanted him to have his shirt ripped open and make it more of a performance but he was against it. Good on him not wanting to use his body to sell the performance~
October 25, 201410 yr They're definitely gonna stretch the boundaries of the theme next week like when Craig sang Set Fire To The Rain (how exactly is that Hallowe'en-based?) Oh lordy. Stick to the theme :drama: Interesting that on xtra factor Jack has said the issue they had is they wanted him to dance and perform and rip his shirt open at the end of the song and he wouldn't do it. Seems weird to be taking the moral high ground when he has just done a naked shoot and doing a bit of performance and dancing wouldn't hurt him tbh. I guess the judges would criticise the shirtless in performance yet be more lenient on it being in the introductory video.
October 25, 201410 yr Stevi did it first week though having his shirt ripped open and I don't recall them slating him for it?
October 25, 201410 yr Stevi did it first week though having his shirt ripped open and I don't recall them slating him for it? Stevi could do anything and the judges would merit it on grounds of being a performance. Jack is vocally better than Jake so I can see why Mel would rather him do the stripping and not Jake :lol:
October 25, 201410 yr Also the naked mag shoot Jake did was for a cancer charity, which is what his brother died of, shame that wasn't mentioned on the main show though.
October 25, 201410 yr I hope the group performance is a medley of hits from Spiceworld: The Movie I'd love that! ~~~ Looking forward to Jack's Attitude shoot. :kink: https://twitter.com/attitudemag/status/526106318126710784
October 25, 201410 yr Author I actually don't have a clue what I want to hear for Halloween week Possibly stay (Shakespeare's sister), ghost (Ella Henderson), e.t. (Katy) and haunted (Taylor) Ghost was already done by Paul in week 1 and OTY at judges' houses, I don't need it again as fab as the original is :kink: Yaaaass at Haunted, Stay and E.T. though, particularly Haunted! ----- Omg imagine Chloe slaying us with Gloomy Sunday on Halloween week *.* Some suggestions from me: Lauren - Zombie by The Cranberries (even if it was a piano version, I'd love to see her do the original though and show another side. It's not as if her voice is so weak she's confined to just slowed down songs. It would be good if she did the piano version like Mel's act from Aussie X-Factor 2011 Christina Parie - aka KYA from my BJSC hit What I Live For :kink:) Lola - Stay by Shakespear's Sister (I know it's wheeled out most years and it's another ballad but it'd be such a moment!) Andrea - I Put A Spell On You by Nina Simone (still slow-ish but out of his comfort zone, just not so far out it'd be a mess. It has that soulful vibe to it that he could really shine with, especially with a jazzy song you wouldn't expect. He wouldn't have to "shout" either :P) Paul - Thriller by Michawl Jackson (idk what else and someone is bound to sing this) Jake - Demons by Imagine Dragon Jack - Bad Things by Jace Everett Only The Young - Gives You Hell by All American Rejects (going back to the fun vibe for a safe week after they took a risk and it probably hasn't paid off) Stereo Kicks - Hungry Like The Wolf by Duran Duran Fleur - Dark Horse by Katy Perry or Black Widow by Iggy Azalea Stevi - Bat Out Of Hell by Meatloaf Ben - Supermassive Black Hole by Muse Jay - Mad World by Gary Jules (you just know this will happen) I know most of those are tenuously linked to Halloween, I just used songs about black, night, bats, cats, monsters, witches etc. :lol:
