New Theme - MJ vs Queen (Confirmed)
 

The X Factor @TheXFactor
. @SimonCowell, @CherylOfficial,@OfficialMelB, Louis and the producers have agreed a new theme based on two iconic acts #xfactor #newtheme

Aww, I was looking forward to disco week </3

BUT THIS SURELY MEANS GIRLS ALOUD VS SPICE GIRLS?

omg :amazed:

Oh nvm, it's Queen vs MJ </3

Queen vs MJ? Yaaaas! So here for it.

Ben to do Bohemian Rhapsody pls.

oh.. how boring!

they done a mj week and a queen week :fist:

misleading basterds

Damn wanted disco, guess it could have meant an original song (no reason why not) or that Jay would f*c* it up so Cowell changed

Awful theme. :facepalm:

Should of stuck to disco.

oh :/

in that case, obvious song choices:

Ben - Somebody to Love
Stereo Kicks - Under Pressure
Only the Young - something lame af like Heal the World
Fleur - idk
Jay - Man in the Mirror
Stevi - BoRhap
Lauren - idk probably some quirky take on Beat It or something
Andrea - We Are the Champions
Paul - Don't Stop Me Now

Song choices I'd make:

Ben - Dirty Diana
Stereo Kicks - Radio Ga Ga
Only the Young - They Don't Care About Us
Fleur - Blood on the Dance Floor / Scream
Jay - Stranger in Moscow (or something else a bit slow and forgettable)
Stevi - Bicycle Race (featuring Stevi dressed for the Tour de France and bursting into song after being knocked off of it by another 'racer')
Lauren - Love Never Felt so Good
Andrea - You are Not Alone
Paul - might as well do Another One Bites the Dust, he's going home either way

They Don't Care About Us certainly won't ever be covered. Far too controversial. Bit personal. And Stranger In Moscow is far too personal.

oh yeah, didn't think about the K word :laugh: and I suppose it'd basically be a big middle finger to Simon / the producers

Also doubt

'I am the victim of police brutality, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate
You're rapin' me off my pride
Oh, for God's sake'

Would go down well on prime time Saturday night. :laugh:

Personally would go...

Ben - Come Together. Would love to see him do Hammer To Fall, though. Dirty Diana would also actually be a good choice.
Fleur - Black or White (Due to the rapping).
Stevi - Fat Bottomed Girls would be a dream. :flutter: or The Invisible Man rofl.
Jay - Who Wants To Live Forever (His type of slow paced song).
Only The Young - We Will Rock You.
Andrea - Yeah, You Are Not Alone would suit him. Would be able to hit the high note(s).
Stereo Kicks - Radio Ga Ga sounds alright for them. Just let the black haired kid sing throughout.
Lauren - Somebody To Love.
Paul - (Whatever). Laugh if he did actually do Another One Bites The Dust, then went home. :joker:

Decent replacement and I was gonna tweet Mark saying 'Queen plz' just before this was announced but Disco was one of the best weeks last year with Chic's performance so I'm disappointed :(

The good news though is he confirmed the classic Big Band Week to someone else as being the week after next so :worship:

I swear if Andrea gets 'you are not alone' - one of my favorite songs of all time :mad: he would butcher it so much :(

Omg that's amazing! Big band is always my favorite week of the X factor :D

Somebody could sing 'There Must Be More To Life Than This' seeing as though it's MJ vs Queen and that song featured/will be featuring MJ and Freddie Mercury. Which I assume is why this whole thing came about.

Spice Girls Vs Girls Aloud theme >>>> it has never been done before :bored: they are both the best girl bands of all time!

MJ and Queen have been done before!

The Supremes are better than both.

all saints & sugababes > the spice girls, tbh

(plus the supremes, martha + the vandellas, the shirelles...)

The Supremes also had Diana Ross. It's just no contest. She alone is better than all members of The Spice Girls and Girls Aloud put together. That is no exaggeration either.

Andrea will do something by Queen. He has already sung Michael Jackson.

The song choices that I would give them.

Lauren - Man In The Mirror
Ben - The Show Must Go On
Only The Young - We Will Rock You
Andrea - Bohemian Rhapsody (very manic so it should suit him)
Fleur - Black And White
Stevi - Radio Gaga
Stereo Kicks - Bad
Paul - Dirty Diana
Jay - Who Wants To Live Forever
