Disappointed with Sam's choices, she said she was learning some moves this week.

Luke's choices....urgh. Terrible. Rough Copy could actually be good!

Nicholas, Sam B and Luke all have crap, predictable songs.

RC have the best songs there.

Just added it! (I know you got pelters for not putting a link last week so it's only right you remind everyone else to)

Sam's choices are ok, nothing special.
I think Nicholas will be shown up. Halo is very difficult to sing and he'll just be compared to Joe on the Elton song, which probably won't be as good as Joe's.
Luke's choices could have been much better. He's probably been given the worst Beyonce song out of the four. He should do decently with his Elton song
I actually think Rough Copy have the best song choices of the lot. Their harmonies need to be great this week though.

Hehe! That's why I asked.

I think Sam could change Candle In The Wind and make it good. That's what I'm hoping for. If I Were A Boy will no doubt be great, though.

Luke's choices are just...awful. I mean. Urgh. Louis is useless with him.

Nicholas' will probably make him safe.

RC's, I agree, are the best.

Louis isn't the best mentor - it will be the first time he'll have an act in the final since 2008
Nicholas will get through but he seems to be doing the bare minimum each week and if he couldn't pull off last week's song choices, I don't hold out much hope for him with these. Joe's version of DLTSGD was outstanding. I don't think Nicholas will live up to that.

Ugh Nicholas has to be the most predictable contestant ever.
Typical that Luke gets the most obscure Beyonce track.

Looks the the show is gunning for over kill and they want Luke out.

Most obscure Beyonce song? It was her most recent hit!

Im not sure how Luke will change up the Elton song to make it less of a cheese-fest. He had SO many options..so disapointed . Ah well he can only surprise me during the weekend and i hope he does

Luke will adapt. He always does. I'm not worried.


I'm more worried for RC. Sorry seems to be the hardest word, will show their weak ass vocals. And Halo for Nick? Eeessh. Those repetitive Halo verses will kill him. He can't reach those notes, imo. It'll just sound dull.

Nicholas already showed that his voice is no where near as strong as Joe's was during the show when he sang The Climb, personally I thought that highlighted how much better Joe really was, so I don't know why he's picked a song that really gave Joe winning moment on the show and he will be compared again. Although it's the type of song that pulls in votes. I don't know how he'll do with Halo, I think Beyonce is the only person I've heard sing it well.

Sam's songs are very predictable this week, I wish she had chosen pretty much any other Beyonce song, just so it wasn't as obvious. I would have liked to have seen her do something like Halo or Sweet Dreams.

I don't really know which Beyonce song would suit Luke. As much as I love Beyonce, I don't think this is a great theme. They would have been better doing Beyonce or Elton John and then a song to get you to the final (I'm sure that was their semi final theme last year).

whats with the cheese overload again for rough copy ?

don't let the sun go down on me could be too big a song for Nicholas , and not sure I like that Elton song for luke either , could have given him something better suited to his voice as I think that type of song will expose the weakest aspect of it

sam B as predictable as usual and will be more karaoke

I wondered what they were on when they chose the theme... This has made me even more worried for the sanity of TPTB.

They were too busy comparing Tamera to Beyonce. That's what this theme is about, make no mistake.

Seeing as it's a bottom two this week, it'll probably be Luke v RC no matter what songs they have.

Yep, I'm convinced this was the 'secure Tamera's spot in the final' theme.

True

Also true.

Oh well. Guess we'll see how it all goes at the weekend; I'm not holding out much hope for Luke making it to the final though

What has Luke done for them to be throwing him under the bus so blatantly?
