Eoghan and Diana will struggle with the theme, though they'll get enough votes to scrape through I think.
The groups dont do too well! I expect JLS to Struggle, and as for Diana and Owen, no matter how bad they are, they arent going anywhere anytime soon!
Yeah you've hit the nail on the head; Diana and Eoghan are going nowhere, no matter the quality.

I think JLS will be different to other groups when it comes to Big Band week. I expect they'll be one of the best on the night, and they'll have Louis' undivided attention this week!

I think Daniel will do well this week and maybe show he should be in the competition.

Alexandra, Laura, Ruth and Rachel will be outstanding as they are natural divas and should be able to pull of a big band number with a sparkle of jazzy soul.

I think JLS might be stuck with something to do but hopefully will be alright.

Eoghan will struggle a lot I think as his voice is not big enough! He would have to sing a ballad.

I dont really want to see any ballads cos I love big band to be big and eh.. bandy! hehe nah I like it all to be big and punchy and powerful and Eoghan doesnt have that from what I have seen so far.

I wonder how restricted they're going to be on Big Band week? Last year we had Same Difference doing Reach which is hardly your typical Big Band number.It would be a welcome change if we didn't have the same old songs but a bit of a different arragement of some more modern songs.

I beg to differ. Leona's Summertime was one of the best performances of that series.

Diana will be interesting this week. Again, she's going to have to pick a slow song but most big band songs are a kind of mid tempo. It's also going to interesting to hear her trying to blend in with the orchestra. This could be car crash TV. I cant wait.

I think Ruth, Austin, Alex and Laura will do well t his week.

I respect you like her but I have doubts.

I think in order to show off her voice she needs as little instrumentation as possible. I think she's probably at her best when it just her and say a piano or guitar. That’s why I think she has a limited range. With Big band she's going to have a whole horn section to blend in with. This could be a disaster.

I think Ruth, Alex, Daniel and Scott (as much as I hate him) will do well in this.


I bet you though, no matter how good Ruth is, Simon will still slate her, and she will still be in the bottom 2.
