Yeah the bigger voices of the competition will impress - Rachel, Ruth, Alexandra, Laura, JLS. I think Daniel might do well actually, though I don't really rate him as a singer, he'll pull off a suave sort of performance. Eoghan and Diana will struggle with the theme, though they'll get enough votes to scrape through I think.

[Locke.]

Oh, I don't like the sounds of it :sad:

The groups dont do too well! I expect JLS to Struggle, and as for Diana and Owen, no matter how bad they are, they arent going anywhere anytime soon!

To think, she was my favourite last year. I never realised how bad last year actually was especially compared to this year!! :joker:

I did just actually manage to find a good big band week performance though, probably the only decent performance in the entire series. She was really underrated I think (looking back anyway)

OMG! I remember Niki's performance last year! AMAZING! I loved it so much, I think it was one of my favorite performances of the entire series. :lovedup:

Yeah you've hit the nail on the head; Diana and Eoghan are going nowhere, no matter the quality.

I think JLS will be different to other groups when it comes to Big Band week. I expect they'll be one of the best on the night, and they'll have Louis' undivided attention this week!

[Callum]

I miss XF 2007 and 2006. :sad:

I think Rachel,Alex,Laura and Scott will be the standout's next week.

[Indierock&roll]

hmm dont think scott will be that good..
but yeah rache. /alex/ laura will be great i think

[Princess]

[Annie]

I think Daniel will do well this week and maybe show he should be in the competition.

Alexandra, Laura, Ruth and Rachel will be outstanding as they are natural divas and should be able to pull of a big band number with a sparkle of jazzy soul.

I think JLS might be stuck with something to do but hopefully will be alright.

Eoghan will struggle a lot I think as his voice is not big enough! He would have to sing a ballad.

I dont really want to see any ballads cos I love big band to be big and eh.. bandy! hehe nah I like it all to be big and punchy and powerful and Eoghan doesnt have that from what I have seen so far.

[rayheartbliss]

hopefully this will make eoghan leave!

daniel will probably pull this one off.
and rachel

That, in my opinion is the best EVER x factor performance

[missposh]

alex,rachel ruth n laura are going 2 do well everyone else will strugle

[Dan_]

I wonder how restricted they're going to be on Big Band week? Last year we had Same Difference doing Reach which is hardly your typical Big Band number.It would be a welcome change if we didn't have the same old songs but a bit of a different arragement of some more modern songs.

[rayheartbliss]

i wonder how eoghan will do

I beg to differ. Leona's Summertime was one of the best performances of that series.

[GiRTh]

Diana will be interesting this week. Again, she's going to have to pick a slow song but most big band songs are a kind of mid tempo. It's also going to interesting to hear her trying to blend in with the orchestra. This could be car crash TV. I cant wait.

I think Ruth, Austin, Alex and Laura will do well t his week.

[NettoSuperstar!]

Watch Diana nail it:spin:

[Billy]

Diana should do "Get Happy"

okay with the exception of leona i love her doing summertime..
but most people tend to go cr*p this week

[Indierock&roll]

what the hell is with everyone calling him eggnog?! on like ds and everything
its not that hard to spell E-O-G-H-A-N

I think in order to show off her voice she needs as little instrumentation as possible. I think she's probably at her best when it just her and say a piano or guitar. That’s why I think she has a limited range. With Big band she's going to have a whole horn section to blend in with. This could be a disaster.

[Benjamin]

I think Ruth, Alex, Daniel and Scott (as much as I hate him) will do well in this.


I bet you though, no matter how good Ruth is, Simon will still slate her, and she will still be in the bottom 2. :sad:

I think Diana can find a song she can get by! But regardless, weather she is good or bad, she will get rave reviews from the judges, and sail through!

She could stand there and burp her way through Mr Bojangles and the judges will rave about it and the public will vote for her

I agree, but Cheryl is proving to be a great mentor, and should find a suitable song for her. It won't be her best week, btu I dont think it's gonna be a disaster.

[Tom4784]

I think Rachel, Laura, Ruth and Alexandra will do very well this week. I could see Diana doing good if they go for a slower more orchestral song for her to sing. I think Eoghan's going to struggle, Austin and Scott will do fine and Danielwill be ok I think.

[Benjamin]

My bets are that Rachel, Eoghan and possibly JLS will struggle and find themselves in the bottom 2 this week.
