So finally we have a musical theatre week, but what songs do you think they will be singing and what songs will be suited to each of the girls?
Someone in Sophie's thread mentioned Popular and I think that would be a great choice for her but not sure about the others.

Bet we'll get "As long as he needs me" from one of them next week....
Bet "Defying Gravity" won't be featured though....
Is that an MT song?
Don't get me wrong I expect Jenny to get a horrible song choice.
no more bloody awful pop songs.
:eek:
Cruel - I can imagine Send in the Clowns now - suicide inducing version, clown version, meaningless version, pop version......
Then whatever they did we would have the judges comments about going further with the lyrics and pushing it more, and adding more shade.........
... and more colours.
Don't forget the colours.;)
Yes and Aoife can dance whilst they claim Jenny can't dance well (difficult to tell though as they always stick her in the backrow or behind a tall male dancer 90% of the time)
Aoife also got that never walk alone abomination from Carousel - always climbing never going anywhere interesting. Fine for auditioning the mother Abbess but another IED for Aoife.
Fooloose at least works for Aoife after the show though - the overhead lift was straight out of Chicago and she was Roxie weeks later.
IED?
Yes, more red, and white and pink on the clowns...
There's a Sondheim masterclass on youtube where he teaches someone to sing ' Clowns. Love to teach them using that and then see what Sheila and John make of it......
Improvised explosive device - the 21st century minefield.....
So 'Summertime for Jessica or Sophie!
noooooooooooooooooo :eek:
Fingers crossed, eh? I hope so, too. Maybe I'm a pessimist at heart, but I wouldn't be so sure about that - there are plenty of pop-based musicals around, so they could justify throwing in an Abba or Queen song because, technically, they are now a part of musical theatre. I mean, they managed to have static songs during 'dancing week', songs that no Big Band has ever played in 'Big Band week', so I wouldn't put it past them.
I love the Footloose suggestion so I'll give it to Jessica
Jenny will probably get "Oh What a Night" or "We will rock you".
May have a look and see what he's used before on wiki .
He often targets what he's claimed as a weakness regardless of who else can't sing it either. You'll never walk alone - a weightlifting song - followed some daft comment about Aoife's power. Summertime was out of Abi's range and there wasn't much to act. Footloose was as opposite to Nundom as you could be. Supposedly nasal Jenny got a song that needs a beautiful tone but passed. Stephanie got an acting job that none of them could have brought of to reveal she wasn't as good at acting as they say others are..
Jenny is vulnerable to something that takes her into nasal terriory and is meaningless and as you said has fast horrendous choregraphy - footloose is ideal. Jessica needs to be taken out of her zone to be vulnerable - something deeply emotional with lots of variety and big change ups might go wrong - On my Own would do and Cameron needs an advert. Sophie's a bit of a sitting duck.
What ever happens, Danielle should not get summertime. She might surprise us. But, her voice isn't going to pull that off imo. And none of them would. Jessica should certainly not get it.
