    So who do you all think the bottom two will be tomorrow?

    My heart is telling me Rachel and JLS, but my head is telling me Rachel and Ruth.:(

    I just don't see Ruth escaping the bottom two, as Eoghan and JLS have scored perhaps TT's biggest songs, Never Forget and Back For Good respectively.

    Eoghan reminds me of Chucky from the Childsplay films.

    It'd be whopper if it was Diana and JLS or Eoghan in the B2

    The song choices for Saturday's X Factor have been revealed.

    The contestants will be singing classic songs by reformed boyband Take That, who will also perform their latest single 'Greatest Day' for the ITV1 show.

    Speaking to Chris Moyles on Radio 1's Breakfast Show, Louis Walsh confirmed that his act JLS would be covering 'Back For Good'.

    Walsh had hoped that JLS, his only remaining act, would perform 'Rule The World' but Dannii Minogue managed to secure the song for her act Rachel Hylton.

    He also confirmed that Eoghan Quigg will sing 'Never Forget' and Alexandra Burke will perform 'Relight My Fire'.

    The judge added that Diana Vickers would probably be performing 'Patience', but criticised her performance last week.

    When asked whether he thought Ruth Lorenzo could win, Walsh replied that it was unlikely as she is "Spanish".

    Louis racist :eek:

    He just means the British public might be more likely to vote for a British person.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    According to the official website, JLS are not singing Back For Good, it's A Million Loves Songs. Potential for a **** performance so!:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,260 ✭✭✭Mink


    It prob will be Ruth & Rachel in b2, which is unfortunate as I like Ruth as a singer.
    But... who do you think judges would send home out of those 2?
    If I had my way, Rachel or Diana would go


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 255 ✭✭baglady


    OMG pleeeeeeeeeeease let Diana go home tonight!! just the sight of her pisses me off and her whiny singing voice really gets under my skin!!!!! doubt she'll go though :(

    I'd say rachel and maybe ruth in bottom??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 106 ✭✭bumbletumble


    looking froward seeing JLS sing a band song, but think ill put the telly om mute for Diana!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,408 ✭✭✭Huggles


    Oooh I am liking this from Alex


  • Posts: 9,005 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Any streams for this?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 106 ✭✭bumbletumble


    she is giving it loads looks like a real proformer!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    I thought she Alexandra was great. It was a good performance overall. Loads of energy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,665 ✭✭✭magnumlady


    Alex was brill.

    Alexandra was brilliant. Great vocals, great routine and over-all a great cover.

    But, she needed to look like she was enjoying that routine rather then concentrating on nailing the vocal. She didn't look like she was enjoying it at all! It just shows her lack of personality on stage and that will be her downfall if she doesn't win.

    I agree with Louis though, haven't seen a better singer in X-Factor since Leona.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,408 ✭✭✭Huggles


    Meh, don't like whats shes done with that.

    Not mad about that song though.

    Alex was great but what the hell is Brian Friedman doing with the choreography?! Awful as usual.

    I agree. I cant put my finger on it but I didn't like it.

    Edit: You're talking about Ruth right?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 106 ✭✭bumbletumble


    good voice but the song done nothing for me!!! I starting to think she sounds the same with every song.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,408 ✭✭✭Huggles


    She could come on and rap a song about the KKK and Cowell would still mess his pants for her.

    Didn't like Alexandra tonight. Thought Ruth was excellent and I've not been too fond of her so far in the series.
