This suggests they've all been given different songs (good choice, they're all so different this year) but this article sounds off to me because:

It’s a shrewd move planned to raise the X Factor USA judge’s profile in the UK.
Why would he give it to them if they probably won't even get to perform it?

Not as bad as The Climb, but still a terrible choice.

That song is incredible but it shouldn't be for Union J! That should've been Ella's Winners song.

Why couldn't they record the winners songs next week after we know who is in the final?

I am pretty sure that Joe McElderry has done the song on his new album

I like the song but to be honest; I think it would have suited James more.

I'm sure I just read that the winners song was going to be the charity song this year.. all kinds of ramifications of that. will see if I can find the link.

Accoring to BBC Newsbeat..

also states that last 2 finalists will perform the song

- so not individual songs.

If this is true - i'm happy with skyscraper. Will definetly be epic, especially in an arena and a black gospel choir behind the contestants

Wouldn't be a surprise at all, Cowell loves the song, it's a ballad and Demi's now on X Factor US. It all lines up.

Ella or Jahmene would do this song so well! I cant stand the thought of Christopher ruining it for me.

I am sick of them releasing covers for the winners single, Is it really that hard to write something original for the single?

I love Joe's version of this and I'd be interested to hear Union J.

I love Joe's version of Skyscraper too. I think Jaymi will do this song as much justice as Joe did it. It needs a really good vocalist.

5th Harmony also did "Skyscraper" on X Factor USA for their "save me" song in front of Demi! Demi said they sang it better than her, lol.

Careful...

It'll probably be turned into a ballad/Christmassy arrangement which would be great. I don't think it'll be as dull as last year's single.

I've been saying for some time that this is a perfect XF winner's single, although I think it would have been better for Little Mix last year. I like Union J but I'm not sure they'll bring the necessary emotion to it. It really needs an act who has been on more of a 'journey'.

They always do these kinds of "Finals" stories for acts not going to be in the final. Sad.

Like "Janet Devlin to Duet With Coldpay in Final"
