my bad not remembering a song title diversely named Don't Let Go that wasn't even their single

[Brother Leon]

Was an over rated performance tbh. Their best performance, but not by any means an all time performance which it is made out to be at times.

[Mystic Mock]

Hannah Barrett - Hallelujah - I have a feeling that she'll be fantastic with this, but the judges will criticize her for being predictable while Nicholas is let off scott free.

Luke Friend - What Makes You Beautiful - I think Luke can do good with this if he Rocks it up. We'll see.

Nicholas McDonald - The Climb - Another dull song choice.

Rough Copy - Don't Let Go - I don't know why but I'm drawn to this song choice, I definitely think this one will make or break Rough Copy.

Sam Bailey - Bleeding Love - She'll shout through it and skip all the challenging notes Nicholas style.

Tamera Foster - Impossible - My favourite song on the list, but knowing Tamera's track record she'll fail epically on this song.

[King Gizzard]

useless film

Luke will do this version i think :

Also, clearly all of the VT's are going to revolve around the stories of how the songs were made popular by the respective acts and probably clips of them too. Now I can picture just about all of these VT's but then we get to The Climb...I mean, how the ****** are they going to try and sell Joe McElderry in this? With all respect to him I know his career these days is going pretty well but let's not pretend that his pop career was anything other than a disappointment

Spot on. And considering X factor has been going for a decade is all the more reason why 6 songs is paltry.

Cleo Higgins version is by far the best version of that song I've ever heard.

YES AT ROUGH COPYS SONG CHOICE.
I remember when little mix smashed it. Greatest ever song idc.

Rough copy will rip it for sure.

[Saph]

the song choices have been really bad this series :|

[erinp5]

Same old boring song choices.

I love the 1975!

There's only two original songs on there :S And I love Rough Copy but I don't really see the point of them covering the song that was Little Mix's break out moment on the competetion.

They're doing covers of covers!

The songs are predictable and (racially limiting.) Loved the fact that RC at Boot camp broke stereotype and unpredictably sang Little Things.

Why not have Hannah doing a 1D song. It may not be her style, but singing 1D will guarantee survival (Luke can book his place for following week).

Nicholas singing McElderry's ( actually it's Miley) the Climb is sooooo obvious abd predictable, why not have him sing something by JLS or at least Olly Murs.*

Sam B singing Bleeding Love is as about as predictable as a Vettel F1 victory. Couldn't sam b have sung Bad Boys by ABurke or Little Mix song?

* Still I think this is setting Nicholas for bottom 2 appearance (providing Tamera and Hannah are on later).

I think it will put off many voters.

This show suffers from a complete lack of imagination. I don't really watch it anymore, but it's the same songs continuously recycled, and they have no interest in the talents of their group.

There are artists out there who may never have had a number one, but their songs are infinitely more beautifully pure than any of the s**t you get to hear a karaoke version of year after year.

I'd win this show at a canter, just by making my artists interesting and sing different songs.

It's like they're all given the songs for the show at the start of every show, and then they have to shoehorn everyone in. If I worked in the music industry, I'd be embarrassed to have so little knowledge of other artists.

Thsi is so true. Themes and song choices have been terrible this year.

[Twitter Robot]

James has posted a new TiBB frontpage article.
