Horror Scene

That was a ****ing masterclass in musicianship, creativity, vocal slayage, the whole lot. The way she live-recorded her backing vocals instead of relying on actual backing vocalists. The transition from Silent Disco into Plastic Box. That show-stopping performance of AOMD. Incredible!!

It was the perfect song for Britney to cover around that time and I’d argue she pulled it off flawlessly. 😍 Maybe an unpopular opinion but MP >>> Do Somethin’.

Self Saboteur was a real grower for me. What a fantastic production and JADE’s vocals sound so effortless. If My Heart Was A House is pop perfection - wishful thinking but I kind of hope JADE drops a visual for it this Halloween if she’s not yet ready to launch J2 because it‘s screaming for that kind of treatment. 🙏 Would love for it to randomly go viral. 🥲

Sounds really good!

Bump.

Will!

Sats!!

Oh yeah you just go to vote options and can edit your vote. 😲

Absof****inglutely - the song. 🤣

Bonnie & Clyde as the title misled me to believe the song would be interesting. Honestly there’s several that can immediately get in the bin. I’m sure IHWTHW will walk this lbr!

It’s alright, a bit dull. Could’ve easily been replaced with Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Shakira, Kelly Rowland…

I guess it’s a testament to how big JLS were back in 2010 for that shite to have kept the long-awaited Robbie/Take That reunion record, and a fantastic one at that, off #1. A true pop injustice. 😭

Church is amazing. Probably around where I expected it to finish, though wouldn’t have been shocked if it had ended up top 5 either. JADE really should’ve announced some Church physicals during a quiet week in January just to give it a top 100 placing but oh well. 🥲

Joe’s The Climb remains crap. Can’t argue with this placing. Good to see the 2010 winner’s single ahead of it too!

It’s pretty uneventful but decent enough. Lmao @ “J Lo’s helpers”. 😂

Dip It Low?

That doesn’t begin to compensate for the rest (bar Rhydian).

Zara having 3 US top 40 hits in 2026 wowww.

Heroes (the cover) is a turd and I agree - the worst XF cast charity track which says a lot. X Factor was undoubtedly at its popularity peak this year but I found the cast pretty weak considering. It wasn’t quite 2007/2009 level crap but there were quite a few gimmicky acts in the live shows (Jedward effect?) and a lot of favouritism regardless of performance (Katie, Cher). Then the last-minute semi-final sing off engineered to get Cher to the final…! 💀

BBC NewsStrictly Come Dancing: Five pros to leave the show as lin...Five members of the show's professional line-up, including the long-serving Karen Hauer, are leaving.

I remember TCIA freefalling on iTunes throughout its first week and it actually seeming like a possibility that they might miss the top spot by Sunday. In the end they were comfortably ahead IIRC. The song was a complete miss in my book. Horrible auto tune, horrible sample, horrible lyrics.

Can Netflix bag it and we get a Spice revival in the charts? 🙏

Would be amazing if we can beat our previous best of 31 participants!

I’m a summer late!
