Janet's second performance was one of her best, it was good to hear her do something a bit different. Giving her mmmbop was a ridiculous idea, it's really hard to sing (that said, she clearly could have rehearsed more!) I don't imagine her under the bridge will save her now, but it was a decent performance.

If it was still a 1 song week and Under The Bridge was her song she would be in with a chance of winning it. As it is, i do agree you can't miss the words twice so I think she could have had it. She doesn't really deserve to win the competition, but she is still my fave to come out from this years show.

I hope she gets a recording deal and not with Syco. She is a songwriter and actually could do well getting into a rock band as lead singer.

When you think of the quality of contestant left at this stage of the competition over the past years, this year really is crap in comparison!

Visage 27-11-2011 10:48 AM

I thought it was brilliant.

Her first song was terrible though.

fruit_cake 27-11-2011 10:50 AM

I thought it was better than the judges gave it credit for, they were still dwelling on the first song really imo

MusicXian 27-11-2011 10:55 AM

Yeah I mean Tulisa gave good comments at least but almost like she didn't want too which makes me think producers just want her out.

Gary said he didn't like it but didn't give any solid reason as to why

Louis said he doesn't like the song. Firstly it's heroes theme so it's a void point, secondly it's one of the best frigging songs ever.

Kelly actually was nice last night. Her and Janet must have made up but Janet has also been praising Kelly in the media.

fruit_cake 27-11-2011 10:57 AM

Janet has a lot of talent but it's very hit and miss, she really needed a better mentor than Kelly has been imo. I think she's finding it difficult to cope with the pressure she seems quite a reserved shy and quiet girl really.

MusicXian 27-11-2011 10:59 AM

I wouldn't mind if she goes today. I think she will get signed up and let her talent flourish from there. First she needs to be more confident, but she has more to her than just a XF toy. She can write songs, play instruments, things they will not let her do under the Syco machine.

I think you're right there MX, Janet seems to me to need a lot of creative licence and a lot less pressure on her shoulders to flourish

She should have sang Linger by the Cranberries.. I reckon she could pull that off really well

/future mentor

Under The Bridge is an amazing song and Janet sang it so well. What is wrong with you people? :hmph:

So much better than the awful Mmmbop but based on both songs, she should be in the B2.

I didn't think Little Mix were great last night tbh, I'd like to see them and Amelia in the B2. If Janet is in the Bottom, she's gone I reckon (which I personally I think would be unfair if she's there with either Misha or Amelia as they've been in the bottom a few times now)

If she's in the bottom 2 against another of the girls, she's in trouble because Kelly won't save her I reckon

I can't believe the judges didn't go crazy for it:conf: Am I alone in thinking it was fantastic? Best performance of the series imo.

They didn't go crazy for it because it wasn't great at all, infact it was very weak.

Let me guess, your irish? :rolleyes:

Yeah, I know, I really hope she's not in the B2 tonight but I think she will be :(

I'm from the Republic of Ireland not Northern Ireland. I like Janet because I love her voice. Matt Cardle was my favourite last year not Tesco Mary, who was actually from the Republic of Ireland. I'm not that much of a ****ing moron, thank you very much.

MeMyselfAndI 27-11-2011 01:03 PM

:laugh3: I really liked Janet until she turned bad

Well you clearly are if you think Janet is good....she was literally AWFUL last night, and nobody can argue with that. Her second song was slightly better than the abortion that was 'Mmmbop'

God, you're rude.

Her first song was terrible, I loved her second, infact I thought it was the performance of the series.

Adamw92 27-11-2011 02:02 PM

I agree partially with you Niamh, I loved her rendition of the song but I don't agree about it being the performance of the series and I don't think it was the best performance last night but I'd love to see Janet get through tonight as long as Amelia is safe too :D

That's fair enough, it's a personal taste thing I suppose. The fact that I love that song probably swayed me a bit too :hugesmile:

Tom4784 27-11-2011 02:06 PM

Janet was a mess last night, both performances were subpar. The right bottom 2 this week would be her and Marcus.

Marcus was fantastic! Like I said I adored her second song and hope she isn't in the B2 but it would be fair enough if she was after she messed up the first song so badly.
