If that's true, that's a very poor song choice for him.
Vanessa

Why? It's a great song and i think it would suit him. :laugh:

Hello is cheesy, sily Andrea, and it will only help the chasing pack ie Paul, Fleur and Lauren catch up but he'll bounce back. Still Andrea will win but won't really have a real world career.

I would give him " I will always love you", Whitney Houston or Purple Rain, Prince. Imagine him singing those high notes. :amazed:

Thanks Vanessa.
Not crazy on the song choice, but don't hate it either. I'd rather him sing that than a big Whitney Houston type number. There's a lot of acts that don't have a patch on him, so he doesn't need to bring out the big guns yet. He should just coast through for the first few weeks in first/second gear, so that he'll be able to raise the bar very easily when he needs to. If he starts singing huge songs, then the inevitable 'It was good, but not as good as last week' will come from the judges, so one step at a time for him. Let's keep it simple for a few weeks :cheer2:

That's true. I think something more understated is better at this stage. I like the song, so fingers crossed it's correct. :fc:

I like Careless Whisper for Andrea as well. He has the range to do it justice.

What I like about what is likely to be Andrea's song choice is that it's not a song that I've heard be done a million times on these Reality Shows.
Here's what I've heard for song choices so far.
Jake Quickenden - Total Eclipse Of The Heart by Bonnie Tyler (confirmed)
Chloe Jasmine - Call Me by Blondie (confirmed)
Stevi Ritchie - Addicted To Love (confirmed)
Only The Young - Power Of Love by Huey Lewis & The News (confirmed)
Andrea Faustini - Hello by Lionel Ritchie (reported)
Jack Walton - Ain't Nobody by Chaka Khan (reported)

They used to do it at midnight, but last week it was midday and they said they'd stick with that plan I think.

It's a great song and he can really put his emotions into it.

I'm looking forward to finding out what Lauren's performing this week as I really liked her performance last week.

I could definitely see Ben getting a Bon Jovi ballad or a Shakin Stevens song to really sabotage him lol.

Bon Jovi would be fine. I like them, but i would prefer U2 or Queen.

Aah please Vanessa can we have one series where no one sings 'I will always love you'.:joker:
It is a beautiful song sung the way Dolly Parton does it but I hate the massively overdone vocals it gets all the time now.
'Purple Rain', yes, I could go for that and he would do that I would think effortlessly and perfectly.

The only XF contestant to sing 'I Will Always Love You' and be fantastic is Leona Lewis. Andrea is good but nowhere near as good as Queen Leona.

We'll find out how good Andrea really is by week 4 I think.
