I thought exactly the same whilst watching the show. It was almost heart-warming seeing the two working so well together, and much as I love Tom (who I would very much like to marry please) it was the first time in the whole series where he has been shown to actually excel. Natasha out before the final was the obvious result going into this week, so I can't say I'm shedding any tears. She did increasingly look like she didn't really have the enthusiasm for the contest, and the whole "I can't cook" smacked of surly child who was quite hoping for an opportunity to kick back and do sod all that week.

Actually I think that's a rather credible and varied final list we have there; for a change it's not over-saturated with throwaway female pop, most genres are represented and they were all genuinely popular or enduring hits that don't look particular out of place in the final top 50.

Harve OFFICIALLY USELESS

If both Suedehead and Dandy are going to be too familiar with Mark's tracks, I'll take it instead. Although I'd need a few days to get a review out.

I'm not sure why people are so surprised at the inclusion of Born This Way. It's one of the 10 biggest selling hits of the year so far in the UK, and it was MASSIVE all across the world. The other singles WEREN'T. Similarly, would people expect Set Fire To The Rain or Turning Tables to be included over Someone Like You?

Essentially this. The 2009 results showed much promise, but this one just fell totally back in typical Buzzjack form, where any old shite will get voted through so long as it's sung by a characterless female. Turn It Up is possibly the most forgettable chart "hit" of the past two years. Completely generic drivel.

It speaks volumes as to the "quality" of a year when even S Club Juniors can only attract the 1 solitary vote.

That wasn't

I fear for the results to this. Many, many great songs, and still I see endless votes for The Saturdays, Shontelle and Pixie Lott.

What on EARTH is going on with Bev Knight there? Is Aaron now thousands of pounds worth in debt and laden with unwanted stock?

The likes of Madonna, U2, Sugababes and even Darius are doing just fine even without current material...

I can type out the discography of The Corrs (2001-2005 strictly) if that is any help for padding the list out?

That was taken into account, but even without B&I's, activity was significantly lower than other forums :( The topic shall be moved in 2 secs

We really did do a MUCH better job picking the males then we did the females didn't we? The right balance of present AND the classics.

I figured both really would be overload. And I was never as enamoured with Sharon's solo album as I was Ten Feet High.
