Week 4 Songs

Thriller
Creep (??Belle Amie)
Relight My Fire (?TreyC)

is Katie's song Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered rather than just Bewitched (from the TV show) which Ollie did last year?

Relight my fire? [smiley:crazy]

[smiley:crazy]

I think that the Bewitched song is the Ella Fitzgerald version?

which is also known as Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered so not the song Ollie had last year.

Time to inject a bit of humour in Aiden's oeuvre?

Noooooooooooooooooooooo. Humourless people trying to be funny.Nooooooooooooo.

Absolutely nobody is any fun in this lot. Wagner is sad , felt sorry for and laughed at. A very unfunny thing.

Before you say anything I am known as a laugh a minute on planet Melv. Thank you v. much.

I've got it on decent authority that One Direction are doing Relight My Fire

Again, how is this anything to do with Halloween?!  Fire = hell = demonic young boys singing Take That?!  Very tenuous...

So now it's Halloween/Bonfire night  theme?    

None of these confirmed

Matt - Bleeding Love
Aiden - Thriller

1 Direction - Better The Devil You Know

Shocking apart from Aiden's

Bleeding Love is surely tragically dull, taking away the vocal contortions of Leona?

I'd rather listen to Lloyd sing bleeding love again

Was it about the Danyl encounter?

PMSL gb!!

4th post in 8 years reserved for One D's song choice!

If Aidens doing Thriller they will give him the pimp slot, he will do it his way and will not do MJ impressions. It will be spooky. His price will will plummet.

If........

I think they'll give him yellow contact lenses and have him jumping out of a compost heap myself

will be watching from behind the sofa!

wagner bat out of hell nap

"Wagner bat out of hell..price crash to 1.01. ITune meltdown"

Posted above on 27th. Some people have vision and the rest of the world wear bifocals [;)]

Off update site. If true tv gold for wagner. Chance for Mary to do something a bit different. Katie going for the Diane Vickers market. Some bg notes for Cher if she sings it with a straight bat. Coulkd be a showstopper. If she tries to convert it to some (c)rap she's toast.

# Wagner – Bat Out of Hell by Meat Loaf
# Mary Byrne – Could It Be Magic by Barry Manilow
# Katie Waissel – Bewitched – Ella Fitzgerald
# Cher Lloyd – Stay by Shakespears Sister

god knows how she's gonna get a rap into that song.

I can only assume that Cher is not capable of singing a proper song

My green on her says I hope she doesn't busta

Yep it looks like 1d relight my fire

You can safely bet that discussion afterward will be about how the song fits the theme, with Cowell defending himself against the other three

Rarely good for prices

f.f/s no rapp shell blow them awaycher

wonder if there will be a Bonfire Night theme next week. 

Fire - The Crazy World of Arthur Brown (just caught it on Vintage TV, Sky 369) would be a great one for Wagner.

used to scare the hell of me when I was a kid.

Supposedly:

Wagner : O Fortuna/Bat out of Hell.
Mary : Could it be magic.
One Direction : Total Eclipse of the heart.
Belle Ami : Venus
Aiden : Thriller
Matt: Bleeding Love
Paije : Back to Black
TreyC : Relight my fire
Cher : Stay
Katie : Bewitched
Rebecca : Wicked Game

Wagner is going to be epic! What a mash up

pretty sure some indie band did a really good cover of Bleeding Heart

i think Matt's going to have another good week

not so sure about his main competition... One Ds looks like a car crash and Rebecca's is surely too low and bland.

if jacks post was correct

Hope beccys is wrong. Just another low key nasally thing. A few high notes if she goes for them. That said she's safe so plenty of time to unleash the beast.

aa, anyong still opposing Matt is either clueless about the xf core voters, obsessively stubborn or fibbing. Only a wholesale de-ramp can stop him imho, and there's no sign of that yet.

If and I do say if RTebecca nails that song she will be shorter than Wand erection by the end of the show.

boyce avenue youtube 7.5 million hits [;)]


ever so slightly matt

well spotted, Matt is better than that guy too [;)]

Is that running order as well. If so the pimping of Katie is appalling.

Simons very confident of 1 directions support if thats their position. On the other hand also not bovvered about people turning off when they have finished. Wonder how many turn off when Matts done?

Very much doubt it's the running order melv, usually don't hear about that until the last minute, and it's only hints even then

How do half of those fit the theme of Halloween in the slightest.

Hotel lobby favourites seems to be the actual theme.

it's in category order

Genius

Or Cheryl gets the 2nd half of the programme all to herself.

Dannii must be so p1ssed off with all the cheryl hype I bet Cheryl gets paid loads more too. Why? coz? she is Simons creature, his Frankenstein creation. Despite the fact that Dannii knows plenty the Biz and Cheryl knows SF all.

PS she dances like a carthorse.

I doubt that Dannii knows any more of the biz than Cheryl tbh

Danii has been on TV since she was 7. Has seen her sisters massive career and is a singer, songwriter, actress, television personality, radio personality and fashion designer.

Cherly is a creature of Simon Cowell and Max Clifford. All she has is a ruthless thirst for fame. And a totally unrequited self belief typical of the everything for nothing generation. (Which is not all todays youth thank God.)

It looks like a poor show if the song choices are true.

Paije and Waggy stand out.
Shocking for 1D and the same old same old for Rebecca

Figgy; Matt could blow their socks of this week. Hope the warbling high notes are back. I can't stand it but I think the girls love it.

Waggy is the only likely to blow my socks off :)
I can honestly see him down to the levels Jedward traded at for awhile. mid teens, if he makes a good job of it tonight.

Matt is likely to please his audience and could well go shorter too. Especially given what 1D and Rebecca are singing.

Waggy's time is limited.
9-2 for him to go this week looks a touch of value.

Think he's safe this week. Hope so as my betting is based solely on this assumption ie green on 4 to go.

I'd make him about 25/1

That's to go this week, covering a double elimination. He is flirting with the bottom, and can't get late slots for much longer. B3 and he's out imo.

can you get on at vc fll?

I agree fll. The polls make him safe from bottom 2 and his poll ratings suggests he punches above his weight in the actual pv.

I'm toying with coming up with a multiplier factor for poll ratings prior to eviction as we will ahve enough data after this weeked to spot any trends.

That said when a wagner type goes its often a surprise in that you think the momentum is still there so can be difficult to spot the "moment".

oops forgot its probably bottom three. Squeaky bum time but I'll still let it ride.

No cider, 'the punters friend for 60 years' closed my account.

..and yep maybe 9/2 for any elim, but 25/1 or bigger for the 6th eviction, assuming it's a double and the bottom vote getter goes 6th

Unlikely to be bottom yes. But they are running out of the duff acts to prop him up. 9-2 this week or 10-3 next week both look ok.

Can't be running order as it would mean Cherly has the complete seconf half of the show to herself.

Although I really like Paijje think they may be after him this week. Rikki 'eyebrow' loony sang the same song last year (black is black) and got roasted by cowell and subsequently got the boot!

Wagner goes nowhere!

Venus = Halloween? Am I missing something?

Chaps. "Could it be magic" for Mary?

There's no 40-1 in the street, taken it all. I think that track will flop badly. If she ends up bottom 2 with anyone apart from Wagner or Belle Amie she could be toast.
40-1 is certainly a trading opportunity IMO.

if Rebecca nails that song she will be shorter than Wand erection by the end of the show.


totally agree, a brilliant choice and she's likely to be close to favouritism imho

the link must be the outfits Bananarama wore in the video that went with their cover of the track, ghat

isn't there history of Venus being a song that has eliminated an act in previous series squares?

Girlband B2

cheers. bellamy in a world of trouble tonight.

and Matt gets stuck into Katie in the DM:

X Factor star Matt Cardle has reportedly branded fellow contestant Katie Waissel "fame hungry".

According to the Daily Mail, the singer denied claims that the pair were found in bed together and admitted that they are no longer on speaking terms.

He said: "That stuff about us being in bed together was absolute bulls**t. Katie's a fame hungry t**t. I can't say any more about it because nothing happened.

"I would never go near her. I'm not speaking to her, I don't have anything to do with her in the house. I've made my feelings absolutely clear and if she doesn't get it by now then she's more stupid than I thought."

Asked what Waissel could do to repair their friendship, he said: "The only thing she could do is leave the competition. I don't care if she's in or out of it, as long as she's out of my face. I'm concentrating on the competition, not all that s**t."

fame-hungry people on the XF - who'd have thought it?

Any view on Mary's song squares? Or anyone else come to that?

Wagner : O Fortuna/Bat out of Hell.
Mary : Could it be magic.
One Direction : Total Eclipse of the heart.
Belle Ami : Venus
Aiden : Thriller
Matt: Bleeding Love
Paije : Back to Black
TreyC : Relight my fire
Cher : Stay
Katie : Bewitched
Rebecca : Wicked Game


Wager - should be fun, could be immense, won't be forgettable.

Mary - dull tired old song, probably entertaining enough and still liked by Loose Women type demographic.

Mary - Could it be Tragic?

[;)]

One D - Mary's comments could apply here too.

Belle Amie - probably not memorable enough to keep them out of the bottom, unless anything out of the ordinary happens.

Aiden - could be immense or car crash, shouldn't be forgettable.

Matt - loathe the song myself, but sure Matt's fans will love it.

Paije - could go either way, needs to do a very good job to stand out.

TreyC - same comments as for Mary and One D's songs.

Cher - can't imagine her doing this song so will be interesting.  Kudos if she does a good job.

Katie - bit of a dull dirge.  Likely to be in trouble unless anything out of the ordinary happens.

Rebecca - hard song to do well.  Siobhan was great with it in AI so once again kudos if she does a good job.

Looks to me like Belle Amie, One D, Mary and Treyc have been given the worst songs this week...  The others should at least be memorable.

If Belle Amie also get an early slot they have to be worthy favourites to go at around 2s.

Matt will get all the plaudits again, so his price could well be even shorter than 6/4 by close of play.

Elsewhere there's plenty of potential for car crash TV, so it should be interesting!

Aiden - could be immense

Yep if he nails this could go favourite.

There must be plenty of people who know if he can handle this; and enough people who know if he is struggling. They also know that if he misses a tune he misses by a mile. And you do not want to miss this one. We all know what it should sound like. Absolutely no adaptability this lad.

However his price has been rock solid @ 19.5 all week. For that reason its a car crash.

wagner should do the monster mash

no-one should do thriller...certainly not aiden.

Matt comes over as extremely humble in that article about Katie

she drove him to it

Squares

wagner should do the monster mash

Great song. Wagner would ruin a masterpiece.

Back to Black has b2 form fig iirc

Paije in bother, but then Katie and Bellamy also have terrible choices

In fact most are grim

Hopeless did it, thought they were safe tho?

Rikki b2 iirc

safe as well i think, even though he was utter kack

By half a percent if he was. He had 2 b2's yes?  1 escape?

out Wk 2

Yeah, you're right of course

He was 10th of 12th  week 1 with it

Paije should be able to do a better job of it then Hopeless and Rikki Lonely, and does seem more likeable (altho that's not saying much)

I think Paije needs to stretch his lungs to impress, and this song doesn't

he might change it up a bit, has done with his previous songs - made way for some vocal gymnastics.

John leaving a small  help to Paije??

Very small

Unfortunately

There won't be a better performance this series than John week 2

Very little should be more than enough though?

He's shown week after week he can put on a good performance with songs that don't look partcularly promising...and he can't be 1st up again, surely.

Katie, Bell and Treyc B3 for me, assuming one of them isn't on in the last 2.

In terms of b2, Katie and Belly for me to tbh

Just think he may go close

Not convinced about vote transfer, they could just as easy go elsewhere - Rebecca for example

too*

Confirmed on official site - all correct

Waggy! Waggy!

They have Rebecca singing I put a spell on you on facebook; I would prefer wicked game a little different from the same stuff

It's a decent song Wicked Game

Very bland for these shows
