Ooh fancy! Guess the budget has increased then. Talking of money I can't believe the X factor panel get paid millions for basically what we are doing in this game. They don't even have to pick the songs, a team of people do that. It's ridiculous

and we are choosing better songs



well and next series as well starting with a Top 16 in the liveshows, 4 acts from each category


maybe a Top 17, with 1 wildcard from a random category, depending on the variety of good singers, performers

[Nicky91]

I'll be more a Gary Barlow type of Judge/mentor


I find Amy Jade, the more Simon Cowell type of Judge/mentor, in a good way, she's honest


i can't compare you with any Judge on x factor, Jake, but that's good you have your own style

[Strictly Jake]

I think I'm a male Cheryl or Danni?

haha



well and we haven't had any shock exits yet, also something different from real x factor

[Nicky91]

Jake, i've got an idea for a duet this week


Amelia Lily with Tyler Hudson singing Uptown Funk by Mark Ronson ft Bruno Mars

[Strictly Jake]

Yeah sounds good

Maybe Alex can duet with little mix
Cher can duet with Reggie n Bollie
Luke Janet Sarah can sing as a trio

Not sure on the songs though, it should be Motown themed though

[Nicky91]

and Kirk has gave me a message about Luke's song choice


Luke Friend will be singing Stop her on Sight by Edwin Starr

[Nicky91]

yeah, sounds fun



but to be honest with you, Jake i think Cher is now the weakest of the top 9, so i wouldn't be surprised seeing her in the bottom 2 once again

[Strictly Jake]

I think she will be really good this weekend though so I hope she can avoid the sing off

Janet wanted to change her song. She is now singing please mr postman by the supremes but the Saturdays version

[Strictly Jake]

Also

Amelia will sing Candice Glovers version of heard it through the grapevine

Cher will sing sugababes version of for once in my life

Janet will sing the Saturdays version of please mr postman

Alexandra will sing Thelma houstons version of don't leave my this way

All of them will sing little mix version of baby where did our love go

Cher and Janet will sing cleopatras version of I want you back

Amelia and Alexandrs will sing Amelia and Kelly rowlands version of river deep mountain high

[Nicky91]

[Nicky91]

Hmm I think your right about Cher but I hope she gets votes

Let's go through them

Alexandra: safe
Amelia: safe
Cher: danger
Janet: possible danger
Luke: safe
Little mix: safe
Reggie n Bollie: danger
Sarah: safe
Tyler: safe

So possibly a bottom three between Cher Janet and Reggie n Bollie

[Amy Jade]

Just saying I won't be a judge for series 2 and I'm only carrying on this series because Nicky is lovely and I respect him.

Anyway my choices are very limited because you all have duets and triples and group songs so ill have to just pick from whatever left so cheers for that

Reggie & Bollie
"Let’s Get It On” - Marvin Gaye

Youtube video

Little Mix
"Isn't She Lovely" by Stevie Wonder

Youtube video

[Strictly Jake]

Sorry Amy Jade I should have let you pick your songs before I picked duet songs etc but for what it's worth you have picked very good songs for your acts and I'm sorry to hear you won't be returning as a judge

sorry to hear you won't be returning as a Judge, you are doing a perfect job in my x factor game, so far

and good choices for motown week by the way


maybe Ammi would like to step in, she has said 2 times not too much time, but maybe if i ask her very kind

[Nicky91]

my ranking so far:

1. Amelia Lily

2. Tyler Hudson

3. Janet Devlin

4. Little Mix

5. Sarah Cassidy

6. Reggie N Bollie

7. Luke Friend

8. Alexandra Burke

9. Cher Lloyd




i'm sorry for putting Alex and Cher so low, but i see Tyler as a contender and Motown could really be his week




news update: Tyler is really confident about this week, and this Debarge song and Tyler are a match made in heaven

[Nicky91]

news update:


Sarah is really gonna smash this song You Can't Hurry Love, also pretty confident about singing it



and Tyler will open the show with Diana Ross, as they duet with the song Endless Love

[Nicky91]

alright, let the liveshow begin

here are Diana Ross and Tyler Hudson with Endless Love


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MP7m5VqQ6f8



Nicky's comment: wow this deserves a standing ovation, Tyler and can't wait for your solo, and duet performances

[Nicky91]

first up, it's Cher Lloyd with the song For Once in my Life by Stevie Wonder


background: well Cher landed in the sing off, and was saved from elimination against Jack Walton, this time she doesn't want to be in any sing off


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynED36O7dyU



Nicky's comment: well Cher, if you sang this in the sing off last week, i wouldn't have saved you, you are vocally the worst left in the competition, however to end positive with you, the performance you really smashed it

[Nicky91]

up next, it's Luke Friend with the song Stop her on Sight by Edwin Starr


background: Kirk had selected this song, because it's a motown classic, and can Luke impress with this song

Nicky's comment: 3 words Luke, Final Worthy Performance
