It's Austin Drage - Billie Jean



Austins version of Billie Jean would split the nation, theres no doubt about it, but generally, the public thought it was good and Austin got through to the next week.


However, the judges and some of the general public hated the song choice and had already been done by David Cook in American Idol.

It's JLS - Umbrella



JLS's version of Umbrella seemed to definatley split TiBB. The backflips and bodypopping I can remember making one certain member nearly wet themselves. :tongue:

However, they topped the voting that week, beating Alexandra, who the next week became the winner!

It's Alexandra Burke - Toxic



Alexandra took time off her usual ballads to show a bit of diversity, and it seemed to work very, very nicely.

Performing Britneys original Toxic routine, there was quite a bit of pressure on Alexandra to perform and having got through, she did.

It's Alexandra Burke - Candyman



Big Band week and Alexandra's big vocals certainly helped her deliver one of the performances of the night.

JLS - Working my way back to you/Forgive me Girl



Aston makes JLS history by taking the lead vocals from here on. He was strongly backed up by the rest of the group and a loud backing track.

Dannii claimed the performance "Brilliant" Cheryl cemented them as the best group on the X factor and Simon said "You're back in the race."

It's Diana Vickers - White Flag



Described by some TiBB members as an iconic performance, Diana performed this pop classic with conviction, singing every word like she meant it.

This performance will be remembered as one of the most emotional exits in X factor history.

It's Laura White - Fallin'



Originally a favourite to win, Laura's performance of Fallin' absolutley bought the studio down.

Some say that she peaked too early, but this Jazzy style of Fallin' tipped Laura for the final. Shame she didn't. :sad:

I hpe Purple Rain isn't number 1, just because there is no clip of it :( but I would have liked that or 'Always', or Diana.

Listen should be number 1,the first one.

Ruth Lorenzo - Purple Rain



[Sorry for lack of proper video, but Prince is a bit of a cock as some are aware...]


Ruth's version of purple rain made her fanbase expand like crazy and put her from an outsider to a dark horse.

This is TiBB's favourite performance from the X Factor 2008. Agree? Disagree?
