Winner's Song

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZUBSAhHYn8

looks like mary's the chosen one....

I'm guessing that was ironic GTL? Or not? More Cher I thought. Though if it's a female singer Matt will be very comfortable.

highly ironic GB!!  can you imagine mary singing that?!

strange and surprising choice, if that's what it is.

Yes, not confirmed but seems it could be it. Bizarrely if you go to telly mix site they give this info then say click on you tube link below to hear the song. Trouble is song is aggro santos and kimberley walsh!

Be interesting to see who cowell pimps now to fit in with this...not Mary

Better off with this, same title better son!

better song*

Very interesting if true.

To me it would say he accepts the winner could well be Matt
but it's geared to be a good choice for Cher and 1d

and with rebecca and mary clearly an afterthought in the selection process

In theory though a man could sing any 'woman's' song and vice versa.  You just have to up/down the key so it's within their range.  Obviously if the lyrics are too obvious you can't but even then they just get changed from he/she, him to her etc.

i don't see how that song can be sung by anything other than a young cheesy female singer.

bizarre choice if true.

gym dont believe song choice yet my friend;it hasnt been decided yet my friend

i mean they wanted dont stop believing for joe last year but thank god journey told them to fluck off

there are a variety of covers on you tube - male and female, rock versions, acoustic versions, etc., so it does seem to be pretty adaptable.  Most of them are utter gash tho.

bit like the original then squares!

Yeah they popped round my house for advice and I told them where to stick the idea.

...Oh I see what you meant..

Never heard of the Britney song 'Stronger'.  Played it on yootube as sometimes I recognise them when I hear them but still never heard of it.

thanks lou, most useful.

quelle suprise

Considering how closed GymTanLaundry's mind is to Cher, I'm not surprised he's finding the song choice 'bizarre' [;)]

eh?

where did you read this that it was this britney song ?? i read on digitalspy that it was Green Day !!

having just listened to the song which is awful by the way I would be amazed if they chose stronger, cant see it happening myself

bardo

I'm going on the very start of the post where George Bailey says it is.

If Cher wins , the winner's song should be a remake of the old Barbara Dickson song .. CARAVANS

Here is the link Bardo. they now have the right link to Britney on youtube

especially the igligligligliglig but

bit, not but

any updates on winner song rumours?

Matt wants to write his own:

Matt Cardle has said that he wants to write his own material rather than do covers after The X Factor.

The ex-painter and decorator is on a "collision course" with Simon Cowell, according to The Mirror, because the SyCo boss is already arranging a potential winner's single for the 27-year-old.

"I want as much control over my career and debut album as possible," said Cardle last week. "I wouldn't do covers as I want to write my own stuff. We'd come to some agreement I'm sure."

However, a show source warned that Dannii Minogue's act may end up in trouble if he doesn't step in line.

"Simon respects Matt as an artist and he doesn't want to stifle his creative side, but that certainly doesn't mean he is going to give him free rein to release whatever song he wants," said the insider.

"When it comes down to it, all Simon cares about is selling as many singles as possible and getting the Christmas No.1. If that means making Matt sing a cover, then that's what's going to happen... If he wants to truly be a success he will have to learn that Simon's the boss and what he says goes."

squares .. reading your last post only reinforces the fact that Matt has as good as already won the show !!

bardo - care to elaborate?  i don't follow.

Matt sounds just like Steve Brookstein

Matt going down the Brookstein route already

strange way of looking at that bardo

"Three Wheels on my Wagon" for Cher's winners song.

because the article mentions Simon arranging a "potential winners single " for Matt ( and not One D or Rebecca ) and that Cowell has xmas no 1 in mind with Matt singing it

matt wouldnt sell 100 records

Matt has already released failed albums that people didnt want.

aaaarrgggh, ffs pbets, just leave it alone, trolling every thread with your b loody rebecca ramping using lots of different aliases. please stop. you and lou are ruining the forum

I think matt will have a shelf life not much more than steve brookstein to be honest.

For me its been clear all along that matt resents X Factor and the fact he had to go down this non cred route to get a shot. Now he is trying to be Mr Principled Artist when he senses victory.

Matt smell the coffee; you sold your soul to the and now you are cowell's biiitch.

Could well still be his undoing GB2.  We said many weeks ago on the forum after his anti-Wagner rant that he was starting to sound a little like Brookstein already and he's just proving the point.

More reason for cowell to dump him and pimp Rebecca Dizzy [;)]

well put george cowell is the boss and matt behind the scenes hasnt played his game
