Why are the making Max do stuff like reggae and playing the ukulele....this isn't him. ...
Yes it is, reggae is his style of music... He sang a Bob Marley song in his audition and boot camp.. I think it's good that he's a bit different.

I know! Didn't someone else try it on X Factor a few seasons ago & Cowell tried to pass it off as an original version?
yes Austin Drage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Brmp-7MOMco

A lot of very strange choices there. I really don't know what to make of some of those. I feel like I need a randomise button that just shakes up all the songs to land with different singers. Couldn't be much worse!

i've actually thought a really interesting theme would be a little bit of a spin on what you mention there

put a selection of songs into a hat and have the contestants do a blind draw from that hat and whatever they pull out they have to sing on the next show

I think I'd like to see them devote each show to a single classic album.

They could start off with Dark Side Of The Moon - The belters could fight over The Great Gig In The Sky. Anton can do Brain Damage and Keira can stand there looking blank while a modular synthesiser does On The Run.

Next week could be The Pixies Surfer Rosa. I can't be the only one who wants to hear Max's cod-reggae take on Bone Machine.

edit : being serious a good album for that might be the defamation of strickland banks

tracks like "welcome to hell" and "hard times" have a good bluesy feel to them , mason would be in his element with something like "the recluse" and there are a couple of other songs that have a rap element and we have seen a couple of them do a bit of rapping

might struggle to find something for 4th Rate or anton tho

They just had to give Seann a song i really like

Kiera's song choice seems pretty bad, which doesn't bode well for her as clearly she's not popular.

And get another predictable reggae selection.

Lol at Anton's mash-up!! As if he would really go for those tunes (but at least he is giving Luther Vandross a break this week)!
Though if he can do the songs on the style of a Luther Vandross tribute act, he will.

Bizarre song choices for some. Kieras is has anyone ever been less of a Mack than her?

I'm still pushing my Madchester theme and reckon they could have a great week with The Stone Roses debut album.

Sally Cinnamon as as Whitney power ballad, She Bangs The Drum as a slowed down, John Lewisified dirge, I Wanna Be Adored as a show tune - the entertainment value would be incredible for all of the wrong reasons

I love Welcome To Hell, so I'd like to see that one reserved for Ché.

4th Impact could do Stay Too Long. Hell, I'd chuck them a vote just for the weirdness of seeing 4 grown woman dressed as little girls swearing like troopers.

Yep, could work. Keira could stand there looking blank during the extended wah-wah wig out at the end of I Am The Resurrection.

Though, to be fair, Kiera standing looking blank could work for any theme they choose.

Though apparently, our resident mystic Meg already knows she's going to do an absolutely fantastic version of Return Of The Mack this week and be 100% safe

Maybe she's going to stand there looking blank while Mark Morrison comes on and does Return Of The Mack? If they want to highlight her personality a little more perhaps Mr Morrison could use her as a coat stand as he'd no doubt get very hot under the studio lights in all that fur.

"kiera clearly did a fantastic job of holding that coat , she was streets above any of the other contestants and there are at least 6 acts left in the competition that wouldn't have held the coat as well as she did "

I actually LOL'd and then realised it probably wasn't a joke
