Could Fleur actually reprise 'Band Bang', her Judges' House performance. It could work loosely?

Big band people...big band style of music....

I don't like Big Band week, would much prefer Motown week.
Why on earth is Adam Lambert on next week when this week was Queen v MJ?

That would suit Andrea sooooo well hope he gets that !! Would be an epic performance

I know it's not Big Band but this is X Factor. Anything with brass instuments in it probably classes as Big Band for the judges.

Anyway, Fleur says she's doing something that's never been done on X Factor before...

Doesn't "Shake It Off" have a brass section. Only The Young can do that.

Edit: Actually they should do Treasure by Bruno Mars.

Steevi - New York New York

Big band to me is that jazzy style type of music... It doesn't have to be an old song... But its the style... So candyman and mambo #5 counts, but not bang bang or crazy stupid love...

As if XF would never stray away from a theme.

I suspect the same old songs will feature though: Mack The Knife, Cry Me A River (the usual Buble version), At Last, Moon River, Feeling Good etc.

At least these are all big band songs...

Yes I know obviously What I'm saying is the chorus sounds like it'd suit BB week but obviously it wouldn't sound exactly like the original. I agree about CSL.

Then why so many suggesting it???...

Huh? Bang Bang or CSL?

I think Lauren could actually be doing 'Cry Me A River'.

Why are people suggesting crazy stupid love or bang bang at all...those will never pass as big band songs....

Oops I didn't realise by the title this was song suggestions. (I made a thread for suggestions rather than predictions though )

Jay: Puttin' On the Ritz - Fred Astaire
Ben: Up Above My Head - Sister Rosetta Tharpe
Stevi: Strangers in the Night - Frank Sinatra
Fleur: Sweet Georgia Brown - Pearl Bailey

Lauren: It's De-Lovely - Ella Fitzgerald

Only the Young: You Give a A Little Love - From the film Bugsy Malone
Stereo Kicks: Ain't Too Proud to Beg - The Temptations

Andrea: I've got to be Me - Sammy Davis Jnr

I just listened to Bang Bang on youtube and you're actually right. I thought it was more Big Band-sounding than it actually is. Just goes to show I rarely listen to a song's instrumental.

Trust me...I listen to bang bang enough to know its not passable as a big band song...

OTY- Get Happy (Judy Garland)
Stereo Kicks- Ain't That A Kick In The Head (Dean Martin)

Fleur- Sparkling Diamonds (Nicole Kidman's version of Marilyn Monroe's Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend)

Stevi- That Old Black Magic (Frank Sinatra)

Lauren- My Baby Just Cares For Me (Nina SImone)

Andrea- Blueberry Hill (Fats Domino)

Ben - Mr Bojangles
Jay - Smile
Fleur - Get Happy
Stevi - As someone said already, he'll probably get Cry Me A River...
Lauren - Fly Me To The Moon (similar arrangement to the Joshua Radin version)
Andrea - New York, New York
OTY - I Get A Kick Out Of You
Stereo Kicks - Ain't That A Kick In The Head

BIB - Good shouts!

So hope Lauren does Feeling Good! She'd nail it!

Andrea might do that...she'll get god bless the child and still kill it..

Got into the mood of Rat Pack songs and I think Rhythm of Life could be good for OTY

Andrea Faustini: Feeling Good

Lauren Platt: Somewhere Over the Rainbow

Only The Young: I Wanna Be Like You
Stereo Kicks: Gambling Man

Ben Haenow: Cupid
Fleur East: Summertime
Jay James: Beyond the Sea
Stevie Ritchie: Empty Chairs at Empty Tables

Hopefully someone will sing Georgia On My Mind, and maybe another Ray Charles song Unchain My Heart, maybe for Ben
