wow, Reggie N Bollie an Iconic 80's song, nice one Amy


Little Mix, a good song for them to really smash it


and Luke, Iconic Guns N Roses hit, will be tricky for him to really own it

[Nicky91]

so definite choices for Sunday's liveshow for my overs


Tyler Hudson - When You Say nothing at all by Keith Whitley


Sarah Cassidy - Every Breath You Take by The Police


Jack Walton - Gold by Spandau Ballet


Tyler and Sarah a duet with the song Running up that hill by Kate Bush


and the three of them will be singing Karma Chameleon by Culture Club

[Nicky91]

our guest performances will be

and R&B Sensation Rihanna with a song from new album Anti


and in the results show, Bon Jovi will be singing Livin on a Prayer

[Nicky91]

also some news from my overs


Tyler's actual song choice was Love Changes Everything by Climie Fisher


but he had a sore throat for a couple days now, so i changed the song into what he wanted to sing


so he'll sing it for Amy Jade, because he wants to wow her

Well Nicky I didn't even know this song wasn't originally by Ronan Keating so you learn something new every day, it's a nice song and it suits the country style however I think it is too safe and I wish you went with your original choice


Sarah Cassidy - Every Breath You Take by The Police

This is a good choice. In fact I was going to give this song to Cher and have her to the P.Diddy I'll be missing you version but you pipped me to the post. I think it will really suit Sarah and there are some good cover versions of this song, my favourite version is every car you chase the snow patrol vs police song. Maybe see if that would suit Sarah?


Jack Walton - Gold by Spandau Ballet

Perfect. Really suits him. Try and find a slight twist on it though as you don't want to play it safe


Tyler and Sarah a duet with the song Running up that hill by Kate Bush

I think Tyler will struggle with the high notes on this song, it will suit Sarah though

and the three of them will be singing Karma Chameleon by Culture Club

Love that song. I was close to giving it to Janet but I couldn't find a version that suited her

It's going to be another tough week all the song choices are great. I fear for my girls this week, I'm unsure on Chers song but I honestly couldn't find any 80s song that suited her

well it's a safe song for Tyler, i know that, but with his sore throat i mind i couldn't give him a difficult song, but hopefully he can bring the emotion what comes with this song.


your girls have good songs, Janet is gonna own this week i think, we look at the song choice

[Nicky91]

we've got a new mentor, KirkLancaster has agreed to be a mentor, and maybe also for this current series

[Strictly Jake]

To who, the boys?

Also well done little mix you smashed the Brits!!

[Nicky91]

yes, he will mentor the boys

i already said that the song choices have already been revealed


but he will also give his feedback after all acts have performed, i guess

[Nicky91]

so we are complete again in mentors

[Nicky91]

well i've informed my friends about the voting on sunday's show after the acts have performed

[Strictly Jake]

Nicky I have some backstage drama for you

Cher Lloyd has expressed to me quite a few times that she isn't happy singing fame. She doesn't think it shows who she is as an artist and thinks it's cheesy and old fashioned. I like it and I think it will show her in a different light but I do listen to my acts. I want them to be comfortable on stage. So we have changed our song at the last minute, we are singing Cher Lloyds version of just be good to me. She has written a few lines for herself to rap and we are going to go for a bit of a rock look, it'll look very 80s but very cool 80s and Cher is hard at work now as we speak getting her dance routine right

As for Amelia and Janets duet, Janet is nervous about singing against such a strong voice so we have been in singing rehearsals today getting the harmonies just right and I have told Amelia to strip it back just a little bit

As for Alexandra and Chers duet that's also changed. Cher felt bad that she decided not to perform a song I loved and she feels it's a song that will suit Alexandra so they have compromised for me and decided to sing it as a duet, so their duet is now naturi naughtons fame, the lyrics suit what basically is a battle or sing off song so that's the performance they are going for to try and sing and outperform each other and look sassy but really they are really good friends

The group performance is very good, it's very 80s but it's a song that suits lots of different styles and we have made sure each one of them stands out. I think it could be a highlight of the night

Alexandra's solo performance is set to be amazing, she was worried people may say she is cheating by mixing it with a recent song, but I reassured her that it's about time we had a mashup. Also it shows how good a singer she is but at the same time she can perform and move around the stage with this one

Janets solo performance is good she is very confident and she loves the song, she likes that it's upbeat she is a bit worried about dancing but I think on the night she'll be good and the dancers around her will make up for that anyway

Amelia's solo performance is also amazing she rivals Blondie herself, she is fierce, she is going for a leather outfit(think Olivia Newton John) and her hair will be a messy look, she will be doing a lot of dancing, basically I think it will be the biggest performance of the night

So yeah a few problems here and there but I think my girls are set now

some news updates from my team, all is going well in rehearsals


Tyler had a sore throat beginning of the week, so we had to change to the slower When you say nothing at all, but rehearsals are going good, he's quite confident about performing this song, and he hopes to deliver the emotions needed with this song


Sarah could be delivering her biggest performance yet in this competition, it's a difficult song to make it your own, but i'm confident about her singing it


and Tyler and Sarah, also perform so well in duet


i'm a proud overs coach so far in rehearsals

[Nicky91]

i'm already excited for tomorrow's liveshow

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4V90AmXnguw


Nicky's comment: well the performance was again predictable, i just wish you guys did something different with the song, i find it boring, dull and if you want to smash an Iconic song like this, you need to have great vocal qualities, which you guys lack, disappointing

[Nicky91]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9YQ5-Ffx-8



Nicky's comment: well a good performance, your rapping is already iconic, and the song change was a good choice, a little safe but overall a good performance, well done Cher

[Nicky91]
