Andrea Faustini getting "Listen" is a real sickener. So lazy and so predictable. Pathetic.
Try a Little Tenderness as well. Shameful.
Lady Marmalade? Words fail me.

She's doing her third consecutive ballad on the show which is really lazy.
*coughs*...Andrea???...not only doing another ballad, but another big song that been done so many times. ..I think that's lazier...
Oh I'm in agreement about Andrea too, but at least he was somewhat harshly criticised last week.
Imagine the horror if real-life singers did that; found a sound or style of song that worked for them and continued to sing the same kinds of songs all the time
I find Lola a bit dull though so I also agree with you a bit.
The mistake at the start of the song wasn't mentioned at all. ...just the face pulling! !! What a poor reason to criticise someone's performance, just to get a reaction from the crowd. ...and it worked to! ! As I have read today, 'don't change your features Andrea' u were born that way' !!!!
See what crap Simon comes out with tomorrow! !! Maybe criticise the bread next! !!
I'm expecting the arraingment to be completely changed for her, just like the last 2 weeks
I think the budget has been cut as ballards are easier to stage. There are less singers now so that's a poor excuse if so. And as for Sterio Kicks Beatles very, very overused, most boring IMO songs in their song book. Don't wanna miss a thing, great for Bens voice but really done to death. Sky fall was done last year by another great singer who was sabotaged last year and that young girl who did another Bond theme.
Yes Lady Marmalade??
Should do this one. Skyfall.

Going by everything i have seen it seems like she is going the Demi Lovato version of the song....I could be wrong though!
I also agree with Listen being a predictable and disappointing choice for Andrea, he is never going to give us the goose pimples Alexandra Burke did.
Yea, I heard she's doing the Demi Lovato cheesy pop version which is much more suited to the X-Factor feel and what Cheryl is going for with her. Besides, judging on her performance last week when she shouted a couple of the big notes rather than singing them there's no way she could manage the Idina Menzel version. I kind of wish they'd have given the Idina Menzel version to Andrea.
I know its been done before, but Irene Cara's 'Out Here On My Own' would suit Andreas.

BIB - Couldn't agree more. The same dull old dross churned out year after year but then did we expect any different? 1000's of songs from the 80's to choose from last week and they end up picking predictable borefests and songs that weren't even from the decade. Why would they ever consider some decent and unpredictable songs when they can just bore us rigid year after year?
Agree. Awful song choice. He should have done Across 110th Street but Cowell wouldn't actually chose a decent song foe once would he.
Can't you imagine Ben doing this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UOg_8hCC4u4
some really bizarre production this year. its as if they are willing people to switch off !
For once a bit of variety instead of the same tired old clichéd crap would be nice.
Completely agree with this. i understand they're limited in what they have the rights to but its so lazy.
So many good male songs Andrea could have got instead of Listen FGS
You could be on to something there. I reckon they have a collection of compilations and those are the only songs they're aware of from each genre
