Default Live show - 26/11/05

So what did you all think?

Andy Probably his worst performance yet - not because he fluffed the beginning, because I thought he recovered himself pretty well - it was just a weak performance, but I think he's got an amazing voice normally, so I was glad he got through.
Brenda I didn't like this much. I prefer Brenda when she is belting out something funky. Not a bad performance - just a bit boring.
Chico Ahem...much as I like Chico, this performance was bad, and he deserved to be in the bottom two.
Shayne Sharon was right when she said that this is an annoying song - all those high notes make me think of fingernails being scratched down a blackboard. So I didn't like it at all, even though Shayne has got a good voice. I still think he's over-rated though.
The Conways Didn't like it - glad they've gone, it was well overdue.
Journey South Best performance of the night for me. They are head and shoulders above most of the other acts in the competition, and I believe they have a strong chance of getting through to the final.

Shayne - I liked it, it was difrent to any other performance and he relly enjoyed it.
Journey South - I'm likeing these more and more every week. Great preformance and Great song.
The Conway Sisters - Meh. It wasnt very good but it wasnt very bad either. Right choice to go.

Andy - It was a well performed song (apart from the begining) but it didnt do much for me. He fas a fab voice but I can see him going down the same road as Steve "whatshisname"! Can he sell the amount of records to keep him from being droped in the very cynical word of music?
Brenda - Cracking voice but I've heard this song too many times! She held the notes well but it didnt send shivers down my spine! Like Ruth I prefer it when she funks it up a bit!
Chico - What is he still doing in the competition?
Shayne - Good performace but rubbish song!
The Conway Sisters - What a shocking performace! They we the right ones to go!
Journey South - These lads will be in the final!! Fab song and fab performace!

Andy-very shaky start but I think he recovered well. 7/10
Brenda-I thought it was her best perfomance yet. 9/10
Chico-It was a bit off for Chico, but he still made me laugh. 5/10
Shayne-He did well with a different type of song. 7/10
Journey South-I don't think it was their best performance, the older brother shouts a bit instead of singing. 6/10.

Andy His worst week so far. Even though he managed to pull it back after missing his intro, he was still below par and fluffed a note big time at the end.
Brenda As always, it took almost half the song before she decided to make any effort at all. Even then, she only really tried when it came to the chorus. One of her better weeks, but if Chico's effort was a bad Michael Jackson impersonation, then this was nothing more than an average Whitney Houston impersonation.
Chico Extremely cynical use of a child (once again) to disguise his ineptness. The worst performance on the night by a country mile.
Shayne It's an awful song anyway, but well done to him for coping admirably outside of his comfort zone.
Journey South Very corny, especially the attempts to encourage audience participation. Horrid phrasing for the chorus, and they spent more time shouting than they did actually singing. Given that this is quite close to their 'style' already, it was a poor performance.
Conway Sisters One of their better weeks - singed rather than charred.
