    Cher: Somebody's Watching Me (Rockwell)
    Katie: Defying Gravity (from Wicked)
    Rebecca: I Put A Spell On You (Sonique version)
    TreyC: Creep (Radiohead)

    Aiden: Witchcraft (Frank Sinatra)
    Matt: Lullaby (The Cure)
    Paije: Spooky (Classics IV)

    Mary: Bat Out of Hell (Meatloaf)
    Wagner: The Music of the Night (from the Phantom of the Opera)
    I would say 'Phantom of the Opera' but that'd get compared to Rhydian's, which would be detrimental IMO

    Belle Amie: Ce'st La Vie (B*Witched - sorry :o)
    One Direction: Monster (The Automatic)

    Not sure this will be a good theme for Aiden, it doesn't allow him to be different from what he's done before which is intense dark performances.. as a fan of his I love his intensity but doesn't see why it has to be interpreted in a creepy/dark way every time.

    Phantom of the Opera would be a bad choice for Wagner IMO as it isn't really opera...yet he will be judged as if it is. If he's going to do opera it should be the real thing.

    I think he'd do a better job with it than anything else (well, Time Warp would be memorable but...) though thinking about it I guess he could do Nessum Dorma; the subject of that is quite depressing after all.

    Another Holloweeny song:
    Ghost Town by The Specials

    Would love to hear Aiden sing this.

    Also Black Magic woman is another good one (I have a novelty halloween cat that sings this and wags his tail - too cute!)

    Would love wagner to sing bat out of hell, but we just know he's gonna get something off the rocky horror show :(

    Ding dong the witch is dead from wizard of oz is another.

    Road To Hell - Chris Rea
    Take That Look Off Your Face - Marti Webb

    Another weird theme this week that could really include most genres. I interpreted it as songs with mean lyrics.

    I'd love Wagner to do Bat Out of Hell - Rocky Horror is a bit cheesy IMO.

    Thanks :) I got confused as someone said IPASOY was a Nina Simone song, when really it should be a Screamin' Jay song then :)

    Love that song, but now you have mentioned it I can't stop thinking of Mary doing it because of the French & Saunders version. :D

    These are my ideas of songs with a Halloween link that I would really love to see them perform!!

    Rebecca – “Spooky” by Dusty Springfield
    Cher – “Maneater" by Nelly Furtado
    Katie – “Murder on the dancefloor” by Sophie E-B
    Treyc – “Disturbia” by Rhianna (give her something a bit more cool and modern)

    Bellamie – “Better the devil you know” by Steps/Kylie
    One Direction – “Freak” by Sugarbabes

    Wagner – “The Monster Mash”
    Mary – “Zombie” by Cranberries

    Matt – “Back to black” by Amy W… or “Female of the Species” by Space
    Paije – “Thriller” by MJ
    Aiden – “Welcome to the Black Parade” by My Chemical Romance

    :):):)

    No chance.Wouldn't work at all..the lyrics are very,very fast paced. He might manage the chorus but not the verses.

    It's hard enough to keep up that kind of pace when you can speak English well...impossible with his accent.
