Pinched this idea off the X-Factor Forum, thought it might bring a touch of much needed fun!

Basically open up I tunes or whichever media player you have and stick it on shuffle. Write down which song comes up for each couple. (No Cheating!)

Here's mine:

Ali&Brian - Hello/Goodbye - The Beatles
Chris&Ola - Land of 1000 Dances - Wilson Pickett
Craig&Flavia - Genie In a Bottle - Christina Aguilera
Jade&Ian - Baker Street - Gerry Rafferty
Jo&Brendan - Deeper and Deeper - Madonna
Laila&Anton - One Love - Bob Marley
Natalie&Vincent - Push The Feeling On - Nightcrawlers
Phil&Katya - Breakfast at Tiffany's - Deep Blue Something
Ricky&Erin - Pon de Replay - Rihanna
Ricky&Natalie - I wanna be Sedated - The Ramones
Zoe&James - Lump- Presidents of the USA

well it may show up my bad choice in music but here goes

Ali&Brian - I will Survive -Gloria Gaynor
Chris&Ola - Feeling Good - Muse
Craig&Flavia - Nutbush City limits -Tina Turner
Jade&Ian - Forever in Blue Jeans-Neil Diamond
Jo&Brendan - Stand by Me-John Lennon version
Laila&Anton - Beat it -Michael Jackson
Natalie&Vincent - Stand and Deliver-Adam & the Ants
Phil&Katya - It had better be Tonight -Michael Buble
Ricky&Erin - All stood Still-Ultravox
Ricky&Natalie - The point of no Return-Andrew Lloyd Webber
Zoe&James - Toxic-Britney Spears

This shows how poor my music taste is!

Ali and Brian - Show Me Heaven - Maria McKee
Chris and Ola - Us Against The World - Westlife
Craig and Flavia - I'm Still Standing - Elton John
Jade and Ian - No One - Alicia Keys
Jo and Brendan - When I Said Goodbye - Steps
Laila and Anton - Just Want You To Know - Backstreet Boys
Natalie and Vincent - You'll Be Sorry - Steps
Phil and Katya - Promise Me - Beverley Craven
Ricky and Erin - Sunrise - Angel City
Ricky and Natalie - I'm Gonna Getcha Good - Shania Twain
Zoe and James - Don't Look Back In Anger - Oasis

Love these 2! And I would pay good money to see Natalie& Vincent do a dance to Stand and deliver!

This is gonna be amusing! I also love how many Strictly songs appear in the previous few posts!

Ali and Brian - Shake, Rattle and Roll- Bill Haley and the Comets
Chris and Ola - Flashdance/What A Feeling- Irene Cara

Chris&Ola - Barbasol - David Cook

Craig&Flavia - O' Fortuna (not really seeing that one working too well )

Jade&Ian - Knocking on Heavens Door - Ruth Lorenzo

Jo&Brendan - Sweet Disposition - Temper Trap (the title has amused me in relation to Brendan)

Laila&Anton - French Navy - Camera Obscura

Phil&Katya - Ohh La La - Goldfrap (I actually think that tune could work as a showdance)

Ricky&Erin - Little Sparrow - David Cook

Ricky&Natalie - American Girl - Tom Petty

Zoe&James - Ayo Technology - Milow (possibly a bit too raunchy for Len)

I will admit that for my list, Ali and Brian's first song was (IMO) inappropriate as it was If U Seek Amy by Britney Spears! So I restarted and something more appropriate came up!

Ohhhhh, interesting idea! Can I have a go? (I do have THE worst cheesy/lame music taste ever, mind :P)

Here goes:

Ali&Brian - That's How Heartaches Are Made - Dusty Springfield

I've had a falling out with iTunes so I might see if I can do something similar with Spotify... can you play random songs from the whole catalogue, 'cause that would be more fun than my playlists of utter random rubbish!

*Does this get a prize for most stupid song on here?

Edit: wish it could have turned up next to Jo and Brendan's name, I hear he's quite fond of a bit of "animal imagery"

Okay, using Spotify's radio setting:

Ali and Brian: Wrecked on You - The Vibrators
Chris and Ola: Electricityscape - The Strokes
Craig and Flavia: Big Black Heaven - Patti Scialfa
Jade and Ian: A Little Lie - Dave Gahan
Jo and Brendan: Food & Drink Synthesizer - Unrest
