He kind of reminds me of Will Young, his sort of stuff would be good for him I think

[Niamh.]

interesting choice for Jamie, would have thought he'd stick to a rock type song. I can't imagine it going too well.

I like Ollys choice and I think Danyl will do well with Purple Rain(it worked for Ruth last year!)

[setanta]

God Simon is dull in his choices for Danyl; he's giving him another big song that's been owned by previous contestants.

I think he probably thought, it turned Ruths chances around last year, lets see if it works for Danyl! I think he'll do well with it though!

He's always been giving him songs that other people have already performed so well. When he sang I'm Not Goin' and Feeling Good all I could think of was Rachel Hylton's versions. I think the same will apply to Purple Rain for me.

Simon doesn't seem to put any effort into his acts anymore at all

He's trying to encourage us into thinking that Danyl has this amazing voice that can rival all the big guns that have been on the show before. He plainly doesn't have the vocals necessary for the job. Every performance has been ropey for Danyl cuz Simon is asking too much of him with these huge songs.

[Arneldo]

Ruth >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Danyl.

[Tom4784]

John and Edward – Ghostbusters: *facepalms*

Danyl Johnson – Purple Rain: Let's hope it backfires on him, he's a complete bore and his atitude's sh*t.

Stacey Soloman – Son Of A Preacher Man: Interesting choice.

Olly Murs – Twist and Shout: He'll do it well.

Jamie Archer – Unchained Melody: It's unexpected but Simon's great at making things work that you wouldn't think would.

Joe McElderry – Circle Of Life: It'll suit him well enough.

[Niamh.]

Circle of life is going to be a seriousely boring one

[mizzy25]

nobody ever will beat ruths version of purple rain heck i liked it even better than princes version. so will danyl do it well he will just scream like he normally does with his stupid mouth open 4 hours. dissapointed with joes song and i love joe hes my winner but i think this will be a bit boring. jamie will do that fab as he did with the christina agulera one. twins will be great as usual. olly hmmm crap i think. stacey shud b good she may even dance to this one

[Novo]

Great Song choices for Olly and stacey

[Adamw92]

Why does Danyl keep getting songs that were done last year? he will never outdo Ruth with Purple Rain!

[alc09]

As said before, Danyl is only unpopular amongst 13 year old mongs on here.

Well, I wouldn't say that, after all the bad press he's been getting, I think he's unpopular with alot of age groups who believe it. I mean his best week he was in the bottom 2

The word mong should not be used as term of derision here or anywhere. shame on you for using it.

Well said LT

John and Edward – Ghostbusters ~ Yawn

Danyl Johnson – Purple Rain ~ Yay, can't wait

Stacey Soloman – Son Of A Preacher Man ~ Too low for her I think

Olly Murs – Twist and Shout ~ Will suit him but his 'swing thing' is starting to bore

Jamie Archer – Unchained Melody ~ Interesting

Joe McElderry – Circle Of Life ~ Boring just like him

[30stone]

As for Joe... BIG song not sure he is capable to pull it off.

I think Joe's song is absolutely perfect for his voice.

Stacey's is a song that needs heart and soul, which might be difficult for her as she's not the most natural of performers.
