I thought Fleur would do Bang Bang 
like her choice and Lauren's song. Andrea, imo, wont be as good as Leona singing summertime.

I agree.
Only the young ....you can imagine it will be done like they are part of CBeebies.
I think only the young will sing it like the Robbie Williams version on his swing album, I think its a good choice for them.

Ben Haenow - Cry Me A River (by Michael Buble
Are the only ones that really fit the theme and are just a bit predictable imo

Kinda wished she was singing the Will I am version though. .she deffo had 'the moment' this weekend, im sure! !!:-
Big band arrangements can be applied to any tune, for good or ill. Strictly use a big band. Jules Holland has a big band. "Mack The Knife" got the treatment. "Frankie and Johnnie" got the same. It's been going on for more than 80 years.
As far as I'm concerned any tune goes, so long as there's a big band backing.

Not much of a theme and thankfully the majority of people don't agree with you
Leona & Fantasia (also Ruth) did an amazing job with it, so Simon might compare!

Fantasia doing Summertime is probably my favourite tv talent show performance of all time and no one has ever come close since imo
