I'd like Abi to do a slowed down, sultry, even slutty, version of this.

She won't but it would have been really cool.

Tamera would do a marvelous "Snooker Loopy" by Chas n Dave.

I'm hoping Luke will do 'Oh Yeah' by Yello.

And Hannah can do a soulful and impassioned version of "Toucha My Car, I Breaka You Face" by Joe Dolce.

Rough Copy can do Cameo's Word Up or Midnight Star's Headlines.
Tamera can do Whitney Houston's I Wanna Dance With Somebody (JustArun mentioned this on another thread which I agree with) or Karyn White's Superwoman or Pebbles's Girlfriend
Hannah can do Phylis Nelson's "Move Closer" or Mica Paris's One Temptation
Miss Dynamix can do Pointer Sisters I'm So Excited or Sister Sledge Lost In Music
Abi is more suited for many of Eurythmics songs

Now that's just ridiculous

Although I'm sure it'll be more fun than the predictable dirges they'll be given

The black girls will be given Whitney (or Whitney style) ballads,and the big girls from the overs will be given shouty numbers, probably Cher. Although the blonde Geraldine one could well be given a "fun" comedy song

OK. Hannah could do "Mickey" by Toni Basil, Rough Copy could nail "Funky Cold Medina" by Tone Loc and Kingsland could wow us with "Da da da" by Trio, although vocally they might find it a stretch.

Actually Tone Loc Funky Cold Medina is a bit strong for Rough Copy (or maybe not) but I reckon LLCoolJ I Need Love would be good and make their own version to it or do Oran Juice Jones "The Rain". I can't see Hannah doing Toni Basil's Mickey nor Kingsland doing Trio's Da Da Da - more like Footloose or one of Frankie Goes To Hollywood tracks or one of Wham's tracks

I'd like to see Sam do an acoustic version of O Superman by Laurie Anderson.

Kingsland could probably make a good fist of Doctorin The Tardis by The Timelords.

Actually I think they are ideal to do The Right Stuff by New Kids on The Block - they are your typical pop boyband
