Plan B and Scouting For Girls are releasing their singles in the same week (Plan B is tipped to do well, and SFG are making their comeback) and then a few weeks later it's Esmee/Chipmunk (lead single off Chip's re-release, chart success in the past) vs Diana (widely talked about and controversial, debut single).

Who will win each battle?

I think Diana will do well although she would have done better had it been released when X Factor was on air last year.

Plan B will get Top 10 and maybe sneek into the Top 5 , Scouting for Girls may get low Top 10 but there's no way they will be anywhere near Number 1

I think Chip will probably get to Number 1 and Diana 2 or 3

Why is Diana's song controversial ?

SFG will go top 10, maybe top 5 if they are lucky.

I don't think the song is controversial (although I guess you could say the word 'once' being used over 60 times is probably annoying for some), but Diana herself is a bit of a marmite character. I remember she split the nation in XF 08 with her "claw", her singing, her illness.

Very strong love and hate feelings towards Diana, so it'll be interesting to see how she does against a neutral character like Chipmunk.

Surprisingly I quite like Plan B's song. I hope that does well.

Diana's is ok, but nothing particularly special. Her voice still grates on me, I really want to like her - she's gorgeous and seems lovely - but I don't like her voice.

Don't even know who Esmee is, and Chipmunk has a stupid name and sounds like NDubz.

Some people need to learn how to count.


Diana says 'Once' 34 times in the song.

The word 'Gone' is said 37 times in that Chipmunk's song.

But, who's counting?

Don't worry SFG will just blame it on file sharing.

Plan B

Diana will do well but I don't think it'll touch Top 10.

Chipmunk should do well. It will probs be as big as oopsy daisy although i fail to see how great that song was to be number 1 anyway. If i am wrong, then at least bigger then Diamond Rings and Look for me

Plan B deserves to do well, the song is great and he has shown just how talented he is - first album rap, second album soul. Not sure how many people could pull off both. Not as massive fan of Diana Vickers, maybe she's left it too long to capitalize on her X Factor fame.

I think she has left it at a good time personally. She would have been drowned out by Pixie, Paloma and Florence if she released last year. No one new this year has yet to debut their stuff with such a good voice. Marina, Ellie and Daisy dares you are not really known for their perfect voices.
