I was starting to panic when they didn't say his name! Thank god they did, even if it was at the end.

What are we thinking for love and heartbreak guys? I'd love for him to completely revamp a song to suit his style and sing it with his guitar to connect with the lyrics and emotion of the song

I hope they give him quite a modern song. I'd love for him to have his guitar too.

Maybe he could sing 'Hurt' by Christina Aguilera (Jamie Afro sang this in week 2 too)?

Oh I remember that performance - I think it was one of my faves from that series - not sure if he should replicate the same song but something along those lines - like take a huge pop hit and completely make it his own like how Jamie did

We need this keep this thread active.

I'm hoping Luke doesn't peak too early, but at some point, comes out and shocks everyone with a performance (in a good way of course).

He just needs great song choice, luckily love and heartbreak gives you many possible songs.

Let's play a game and put in suggestions and actual predictions for a song Luke's going to perform the next week, and see who gets it right.

I stand by my prediction of Hurt.

I wouldnt mind a Pink song like Nobody Knows or Who Knew? , i saw on the main forum a lot of people predicted I will wait by Mumford but dont think Mumford will ever be used on XF tbh, he could possibly get the Passenger song or they might go stereotypical rock and give him Oasis or something lol

I wouldn't mind him singing Just The Way You are by Bruno Mars. That will help with votes to...

He'll have to put his own spin on it.

Good choice I was thinking it would be a good idea for Luke to sing a Bruno Mars song this week.

I think he could do a great version of If I Knew but it's not one of Bruno's most well know song though which could be a risk.

I think any song he's given he puts his own spin on it which is why he's my favourite out of the boys...

Yes I agree, any Bruno Mars song would be a great choice for him but I feel like Louis favours Nicholas so he'll probably get the Bruno Mars song.

Didn't he practically admit it on Xtra Factor?

Yeah he did, it seems as if, once Louis picks his favourite, the others don't mean a thing

I don't mind Nicholas, but he doesn't seem to have a personality.

Sam, well, he's just not that great a singer.

I think Luke will outlast both of them. He has his own identity for starters (and I'm not just talking about the hair). I just want him to come out one week and shock everyone, especially the haters - it'll be nice to see their responses and them all flooding to this thread.

Some videos of him pre X Factor:

I love his covers, his cover of Sex by The 1975 is awesome http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZ5xsRjGK30

We all need to get behind him, in general and on here - we need to outnumber the haters - we could try and get thousands of posts in the quickest time possible. You saw how active Matt's thread was during X Factor, he was on Part 11 by the final.

Their hatred may be reversed if he pulls it out if the bag on Saturday - and then we vote in our droves.

I'm not a Luke hater, in fact I think he was one of the most itneresting acts this year (and thats not just because of his hair). However I do think he is in an uneasy position this week, especially if he gets an early slot (which is possible as he was 2nd from the end last week) mainly as on the popularity polls he is fairly low down compared to some of the other acts.

Hopefully though he pulls out a fantastic performances and is in for the long haul.

fingers cross for a Shelley vs Miss Dynamix bottom 2!

He's probably the underdog at the moment.

I'm not sure yet if he'll win - but I wasn't sure with Joe McElderry at first and as the weeks went on, he just got better and better. Hopefully we see the same thing here.

Give Me Love by Ed Sheeran seems not a bad choice I think.
