What d'you think Aiden should sing for Elton John Week?
 
I really have no idea, as I'm awful at figuring out whether certain songs would suit certain people. I love Tiny Dancer, so would love it if he did that, but obviously only if he did it well, and I'm not sure he would.

Which songs d'you think would suit him?

Elton John week? Elton John week?? Are you serious?

God almighty! What a crappy theme

Lee. 10-11-2010 01:19 PM

Oh and I think "Sorry seems to be the Hardest Word" would suit him

Haha yeah, Elton John week. It's a pretty awful theme, I'm sure if it's for deff., but on Digital Spy everybody says Dermot mentioned it at the end of last week's results show. I didn't notice though.

He might do Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word well, but oh god I hope not, I kind of hate that song.

I don't really like any of EJ's songs! I don't hate them, I just find him dull.

(oh, apart from The Lion King Soundtrack :love:)

A lot of them are dull, but there are a few good'uns. Like I said, I like Tony Dancer. Then again, that may be just because it was used brilliantly on a scene in the film Almost Famous.

that is because you dont know what he has done

*shakes head*


go and look him up on the internet you clutz:nono:

Strictly Jake 10-11-2010 02:06 PM

well your song would be good. But would love one direction to do that. Katie is supposedly doing the bitch is back which if you hear tina turners version is a good choice. Aiden should do i guess thats why they call it the blues. Paije should do electricity. Matt should do candle in the wind. Rebecca should do sorry seems to be the hardest word. Cher should do ghetto gospel. Mary should do can you feel the love tonight. And wagner should do im still standing

just youtube any one of these and you will realise that EJ is an icon and should be respected even if he is a big fat queen!

tate 10-11-2010 02:08 PM

i would actually like to see Aiden do something more upbeat this week and something that involves him moving around the stage

Maybe something like 'are you ready for love' or 'Rocket Man'

*shakes head back*

Of course I know what he's done!

I don't need to look him up on the internet.. I just find him incredibly boring!

Lee. 10-11-2010 02:12 PM

This is how I think of Elton John..



:laugh:

how can you find an artist who has had hits in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 20s and who has collaborated with such a huge range or artists boring?


lol:joker:

Tom4784 10-11-2010 02:28 PM

I think Tiny Dancer would be a good choice, it's a bit lighter then what he's usually given but his voice would go well with it I think.

Oh god, please not Are You Ready For Love? I hate that song. Although actually I could see Aiden singing it quite well.

Look back at his hits, cliff was a credible and ground breaking artist for many years

look beyond your ignorance

So I should automatically like his music?

You're the ignorant one... I have a huge variation in musical tastes, just because I'm not keen on Elton John or Cliff Richard does not make me ignorant.. it's about tastes and opinions.

Mystic Mock 10-11-2010 05:13 PM

i think aiden should do either sorry seems to be the hardest word or im still standing.

joeysteele 10-11-2010 05:38 PM

Sorry seems to be the hardest word, although Joe did this to great effect last year didn't he.

I've a feeling Matt may get Sorry seems to be the hardest word though.

Don't worry though, I 'm never right.He, Aiden could do really well most of Elton Johns songs though.
