week 2 theme

katie singing one of her own songs

Are you sure that's the theme?

pretty confident.

DS thread seems sure, based on an article by a chap by name of liam mckenna who works in production with louis.

would explain nicolo's tweet about him missing out on singing viva forever this week.

right...it does make me wonder why they bother with these themes when they come up with something as pointless as this...and cannot see how Tweedy is a `musical hero` by any stretch of the imagination

I assume the sonmg choices are a joke mikeeey But the theme is correct (or seems to be) has been on xfactor-updates since this morning

in theory it should all play to their strengths

The weakest perish

In reality it has to be 'musical heroes that we have rights to' however

im just intrigued to see who is Wagner's hero

Do they get the choice to sing any song?  Of all the showstoppers one could think of there does seem to be some weird choices along the way.  look at last week, of any number 1 anywhere in the world ever that's the best 16 they could choose?

no chance that they'd be allowed to pick their own songs.  they'll be given their song choice, and told why it's a good selection for them, and have to like it or lump it.

would be far more interesting though if they did pick their own songs!

yep...it would be good if they had a week where the contestants picked a song of their choice...but that would mean Cowell allowing them to think for themselves
