To be honest, I didn't pay any attention to him. I only watched the series for Kandy Rain, Miss Frank and Joe. But I don't think I would've had a problem with it if he performed the song with a big band behind him

Well apart from the odd exception every theme (especially Big Band) normally has them types of songs being performed so I think it is a requirement.

I do agree with you though that Big Band should allow for other types of songs to be picked but that's not really the rules hence why Fleur and Jamie cheated, but conveniently the judges didn't pick up on Fleur's.

She's overrated.

In all fairness, I'm pretty sure that by now everyone on the show knows about 90% of the songs they perform beforehand, i don't see how having knowledge of a song is an advantage.. As if Ben didn't know the lyrics to Cry Me A River, or Andrea didn't know the words to Summertime.

You can't claim that with any certainty can you, a lot of the contestants get songs they don't know and they have to learn the lyrics which takes time way from practising their performance.

Lets not forget that Fleur has been singing for a long time and so has Ben, they're bound to have more music knowledge than everyone else, you can't put them down for knowing songs that are given to them, it's not their fault and it's not cheating.
