so they are gonna be miming on the tour then as well? its the final 12 and if they cant sing live what hope is there for them

[rayheartbliss]

but the thing is..its like over 20 people singin...and it doesnt need to sound all dodgy......

and its not for them to show off its for charity

[Xander]

I can understand why there were lip synching probably because there wanted it sound as good as possible in order to sell it, they don't want them singing live sounded out of tune, as it won't sell the record.
But they should still have the decency to sing live seeing it is for charitable cause and I think tonight there were more than able to sing live, even if they did have other songs to sing, otherwise why are they on the show, seeing as it is about talent and singing live each week.

but it cant have been a rush decision tonight its obviously something that has been planned for a while which also means plenty of practise time
yes its for charity and they by not singing live (and doing a terrible job at miming) made it into a joke and hardly respectful to all those service people who the cause is for sitting in the audience must have been incredibly cringy for them

whatever
happens
happens.

There is NOO excuse for miming, if they are not ready to perform then they don't perform. Its not that difficult singing with 20 people, people are making it out to be something difficult its really not. I do it every day and its so easy.

[Indierock&roll]

were they.. because it sounded like they were singing it live... but like they all sounded too good to be singing live

[Jen]

I'm really annoyed about it...
They should know better...

I thought they were lip synching! That's quite awful really, i can see the press having a field day with it.

It's just disrespectful though.

If you actually watch it back, Laura cocked up.

tbh..they have a real cheek saying that because if a pro-singer did that live they would be slated in the press.

Quite obvious with Alexandra miming Ruth's part and Austin miming Daniel's part as though noone would notice!

Oh and a few of the voices have been digitally enhanced, I knew it was lip synced as soon as Eoghan opened his trap

^^tom, same here.

also, austin was "singing" the notes and words waaaayy after his part had stopped.
