Week 9 song choice (spoiler)

[erinp5]

The latest X Factor 2013 song spoilers are here, so who’s singing what on tonight’s show?



Saturday night’s ninth X Factor live show is the semi-final, with just four acts remaining in the competition.

The pressure is on as the finalists compete to make it through to next weekend’s gran live final at Wembley Arena.

This weekend they’ll be singing two songs each, with a theme of Elton John v Beyonce.

The judges will each give their comments as usual, but it’ll be the public alone who decides which two hopefuls face elimination on Sunday night’s results show with the flash vote no more.

As we approach the final, which two unlucky acts will become the latest to fall into the bottom two, and who will the panel send home on Sunday night’s results show?

Sunday’s second live show will also see performances from former X Factor champ Leona Lewis and XFactor regular Michael Buble.

Here’s this weekend’s ninth X Factor song list!

Nicholas McDonald
Don’t Let The Sun Go Down On Me

officially going for the mcelderry vote :sleep:

[Black Dagger]

Luke having the song choices that can't showcase a big moment from him, cracking.

Hopefully the momentum from the sing off gets him into the final.

[Brother Leon]

Just fast forward to the obvious RC and Luke B2.

[Mystic Mock]

My prediction for this weeks performances.

Beyonce performances:
Luke Friend - Best Thing I Never Had - I had to check this song out on Youtube because I had never heard this song before in my life, and I've got to be honest he does not suit the song on paper, in fact I'm struggling to see how he'll rock this up tbh.

Nicholas McDonald - Halo - Well I've always wanted to hear a guy's version of this song, but why Nicholas lol!? If he couldn't sing The Greatest Day very well then I doubt that he will sing a song that's even harder to sing very well.

Rough Copy - Survivor - Cheating the theme aside these will flop on this song quicker than the next Call Of Duty game comes out. I honestly don't get how these have got so far.

Sam Bailey - If I Were A Boy - Obvious song choice being possibly shouted out by a Karaoke singer who will try to replicate the Beyonce version.

Elton John performances:
Luke Friend - Something About The Way You Look Tonight - Again I had never heard of this song at all until I listened to it last night, I actually think Luke can rock this up quite well but I'm scared that two unknown songs to TXF public might see him back in the bottom two or whatever voting format is happening this week.

Nicholas McDonald - Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me - Boring and just trying to get Joe's success from a few years back.

Rough Copy - Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word - What's with the long song titles lol, but anyway I think this performance of Rough Copy's could be the worst performance of the night as it will really show how bad their vocals really are as they will probably go for the Blue version.

Sam Bailey - Candle In The Wind - Another boring song choice from a boring singer, is Sam Bailey out to even out bore Nicholas this week or something lol?

[Marc]

Sam :love:

[Samm]

Sam Bailey songs choices :lovedup: , I don't get why people call her boring shes more entertaining then Luke and Nicolas

[MeMyselfAndI]

Odds of Rough Copy jumping, running about & not singing
1/2
Odds of Rough copy having back up vocals/quire/pre recorded vocals
1/12

[Black Dagger]

Sam Bailey songs choices :lovedup: , I don't get why people call her boring shes more entertaining then Luke and Nicolas

because she is boring, she's done every song practically the same as the original, and while her voice is easily the most powerful, I can listen to the originals just fine if I wanted to.

[Amy Jade]

Sam is more interesting than Luke.

[alex_front2]

Luke ix way way more entertaing than mumsy Sam. What's scarey is she's about the same age as beyonce and younger than pink but seems like their tired mother. Whereas beyonce started pre motherhood, Sam is ultimately starting as a mumsy mother of two. Zzzzzzzzz :sleep:

Let's be honest, she has no energy on stage, and even her die hard supporters will have to admit she dancers like an embarassing mumsy 30 something aunt who cringily tells her kids and nephew "I've still got it" and "I am boogying to Naughty guy" to which her nephew replies " no, aunt sam it's Naughtie Boy". Nope Sam won't trouble the charts, long term too old to start and too irrelevant. Emilie Sane probably cringed at Sam taking her song and making it a naff celine knock off.

Sam b live would be duller than celine deon, danielo donnel, cliffe and josh groban, but you are probably a cliffe fan so apologise.

Sam b will also be impossible to market to anyone under 40. Cant see a nice bland mumsy middle age white lady's future songs getting too much love on Bbc 1xtra. It's all about Tamera, Rc and Luke post XF.Nick Grimshaw probably won't play her, on account Sam is utterly irrelevant to almost everyone under 27, chart show host Jameela Jamil has said Sam is best suited to West End and Guardian columnist said no songwriter will want their songs performed by her, whereas Emili Sande, Naughtie Boy, Labrynth et al were all cueing up to work with James Arthur.

[Samm]

Sam is more interesting than Luke.

[joeysteele]

Stunned at Sharon giving Sam 'Candle in the Wind', when she was last on the series she slammed an act and the mentor for being given that song to sing,getting all worked up and saying even Elton doesn't sing that song anymore.

This looks a rather monotonous show on paper to be honest.

I totally agree with The Mockinators review of the likely performances.

[Mystic Mock]

because she is boring, she's done every song practically the same as the original, and while her voice is easily the most powerful, I can listen to the originals just fine if I wanted to.

This, some people may not like Luke because he has weird hair or whatever, but he is the only singer left in the competition, if you want a clown act that was funny to win then I think people have missed their chance with either Shelley or Kingsland Road.

[Samm]

Um Sam is not a Clown act

It's good to have something new on the market at that will be what Sam B will offer we don't want the Same old, Sam B to win :worship:

[Mystic Mock]

Um Sam is not a Clown act

Well she did sing Clown so excuse me for my mistake.:hugesmile:

But being serious she is a karaoke act imo, yes she can hold a note to some extent but she has no style of Music which she doesn't have as she makes every song sound like the original.

[Vanessa]

I trust Luke and i know he will smash it. Of course it won't be enough, because the show is fixing it for a Sam/Nick/RC Final. It's so obvious. :spin:

[Samm]

Well she did sing Clown so excuse me for my mistake.:hugesmile:

But being serious she is a karaoke act imo, yes she can hold a note to some extent but she has no style of Music which she doesn't have as she makes every song sound like the original.

Go and look back at some of her performance plz x, Sam is not a karaoke act that's Shelly :idc:

[Mystic Mock]

It's good to have something new on the market at that will be what Sam B will offer we don't want the Same old, Sam B to win :worship:

No she won't be the cutesy boy popstar that will flop, she'll be a female Steve Brookstein that flops in the charts as they both lack charisma on stage, standout voices, and no genre.

[Samm]

I don't see how there fixing it :idc:

[Mystic Mock]

Go and look back at some of her performance plz x, Sam is not a karaoke act that's Shelly :idc:

Tbh they both are karaoke acts, just Sam B is a better grade of karaoke.

[Vanessa]

I don't see how there fixing it :idc:

Because first they said there was no sing off, then they changed their minds and now there is one. Sounds dodgy to me. :suspect:

[Samm]

No she won't be the cutesy boy popstar that will flop, she'll be a female Steve Brookstein that flops in the charts as they both lack charisma on stage, standout voices, and no genre.

Sam B has the most strong voice left thank you very much

[Mystic Mock]

I don't see how there fixing it :idc:

Sticking Rough Copy on later than Luke every week except once throughout the whole series, giving Luke unknown song choices to TXF audience while every other act gets massive hits that even TOWIE people would know them.

[Samm]

Because first they said there was no sing off, then they changed their minds and now there is one. Sounds dodgy to me. :suspect:

If they wanted Luke out they would of done it last week

[Vanessa]

If they wanted Luke out they would of done it last week

The sing off thing is just suspicious to me. Sorry, but it just doesn't make sense. They only ever had it to get rid of Mary Byrne. :bored:

[Samm]

Sticking Rough Copy on later than Luke every week except once throughout the whole series, giving Luke unknown song choices to TXF audience while every other act gets massive hits that even TOWIE people would know them.

Well it's good that they might be fixing it gets Luke out of the final 3

[Mystic Mock]

Sam B has the most strong voice left thank you very much

She has the most powerful voice it doesn't necessarily the best because if we go by that then Tesco Mary had the best voice in series 7 yet I don't know many people liking her on here or tbh anywhere other than Tesco and some parts of Ireland.:joker:

And what I find shocking is that Christopher Maloney got attacked last year for being dated and yet Sam B and Nicholas are the two fan favourites for singing dated Music, I can't help but laugh at the irony of it all.:joker:

[joeysteele]

I agree Sam has a really good voice but I feel on record it will be less effective, she will no doubt be doing an album of covers and a big ballad if she wins but I cannot see her securing any real lasting success.

Luke is really the only original performer left there now and I say performer purposely because that is what he does with near every song he does, he performs it himself, not the way always that the original was done.

Somehow though, I still see Nicholas winning this series,I know loads who are voting for him and I don't really get why.

Rough Copy are for me just bland and uninteresting, I don't like their takes on the songs they do and they cannot cope with key changes either,it sounds right off when they do a key change together.

[Mystic Mock]

Well it's good that they might be fixing it gets Luke out of the final 3

So you want a final full of Karaoke singers?

[Vanessa]

So tomorrow Luke will knock it out of the park, but he still has no chance because the whole thing is fixed. :bored:

[Samm]

She has the most powerful voice it doesn't necessarily the best because if we go by that then Tesco Mary had the best voice in series 7 yet I don't know many people liking her on here or tbh anywhere other than Tesco and some parts of Ireland.:joker:

Urg I get so angry when people call Sam B dated she ****ing has not done a dated song for weeks and weeks look at all her past pefromances will you before you say that she is dated.

[Mystic Mock]

Nicholas is a joke, he couldn't even perform Greatest Day so how the hell is he gonna do Halo lol? Is there a cover out there or something that he can copy?

[Samm]

So you want a final full of Karaoke singers?

I don't care about Nic

[Mystic Mock]

Urg I get so angry when people call Sam B dated she ****ing has not done a dated song for weeks and weeks look at all her past pefromances will you before you say that she is dated.

She makes the modern song choices sound dated, especially when one case where she did a modern song recently was an Emeli Sande song ffs which is enough to make anyone wanna commit suicide.:joker:

[joeysteele]

Nicholas is a joke, he couldn't even perform Greatest Day so how the hell is he gonna do Halo lol? Is there a cover out there or something that he can copy?

Whatever way he does it the judges will likely love it. I just feel it is like the Leon Jackson year again and that Nicholas will reap the votes in the final,not from me however.

I will be supporting Luke,hopefully it is Rough Copy who finally are out this week for me.

[Vanessa]

They're having the sing off to fix the final they want. Just like they did with Mary and Cher. Do the show producers think we're stupid? :crazy:

[Mystic Mock]

I didn't bother to add sing offs in because that would've given Luke an extra number and I think Rough Copy as well but I'm not as sure on that one.
