Go on blondie - name some, im interested in your disco choices

Someone will sing relight my fire by dan heartman /take that it's gets sung every year on here

Like Emily but NO NO NO rotfl . Saara could pull it off

I like the idea of "I Feel Love" for Saara

Matt for relight my fire then

I can see Emily doing Sugar Baby Love (The Rubettes) or Sunny (Boney M, works well as a slower version too)
5AM - Celebration (Kool & the Gang)
Saara - I Feel Love could be epic, but I'd also like to see her do Don't Leave Me This Way
Matt will probably be given something really cheesy but super recognisable and fun, Stayin' Alive is a good shout, or even Hot Stuff.
Ryan - Rock Your Baby? Struggling to think of anything for him, this is likely to be the worst possible theme for him.
Sam - can't think of anything for her just now

Honey G - it hardly matters what song she gets

I'd love to see Funkytown in the mix though, such a great tune and would be challehging for anyone to pull off, but I don't know who it would suit best.

Birdie song for Honey G. A little bit go G do do do do etc lol. She could do that very easily. Cannot get that song out of my mind now grrr lol

Sahara should do my favourite disco song, seeing w she's my favourite

Feels Like I'm In Love by Kelly Marie.

I originally wanted to sing it at boot camp in 2007, in a slowed down, not John Lewis but bluesy style. I decided that it wouldn't work so well acapella. Although obviously Saara would-be know any of that, I reckon she'd do well with a simiar version, starring slow but building up, and she'd have backing music which is pretty crucial on this song.

She could even potentially mash it up a.Bit with I Feel Love - a mashup would suit Disco and the lyrics would fit! I like mashing infIdels Like I'm In Love with Glitterbal by Sigma feat. Ella Henderson but that wouldn't fit the theme, not that the show cares! As long as Saara isn't screwed over or in the bottom 3 again I'm happy!

Still thinking for the others!

What about Play that funky music or Disco Duck for Honey G

No more tears would be a great one for Saara

And her dressed as Donna Summer with a Black Lampshade on her head

I love to love would suit Emilys voice perfectly bit its an oldie

Uptempo wouldn't suit her style of singing, as she'll sound same as anyone else. But what she could do is get an uptempo number and slow it down, and split up words as if they don't belong. Something to look forward to.

I'd like Saara to sing Don't Leave Me This Way by Thelma Houston.

'I'm Coming Out' Honey G the she pulls her silicone mask off to we see who the hell she is

I preferred the Communards version myself

Both absolute sacrilege. It's a Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes song, written by the legendary Gamble and Huff. The original version is a vocal masterclass by Teddy at the height of his powers.

The Thelma Houston version is passable but Jimmy Summerville needs to be tried for crimes against music for his car crash of a version. It tops my worst cover versions of all time list with Tina Turners horrendous Lets Stay Together a close second

But then so are all disco songs, good choice

Ryan might be able to do That's The Way I Like It, and although Rapper`s Delight doesn't strike me as disco I've just found it on a list of disco songs, maybe because of its era? They may shoehorn it in for Honey G!

For Matt I was thinking You Should Be Dancing as it's probably a less cheesy/cliche choice than Stayin' Alive. It might work even better for 5 After Midnight though, as they're very focused on choreography. One of Matt and 5AM can do that, the other can don't Dont Stop Til You Get Enough - despite my initial thoughts, I recommend 5AM do the former and Matt the latter, though either would work.

Car Wash for Sam?

Emily has been promising us uptempo for weeks now. I know she gets what she's given but the show is being lazy with her. I might give her Yes Sir I Can Boogie - technically she could slow it down but it wouldn't fit with the lyrics!

Matt Terry - Instant Replay by Dan Hartman
Ryan Lawrie - Show Me Love by Sam Feldt feat. Kimberly Anne (Original is Disco themed)

Emily Middlemas - I'm In the Mood for Dancing by The Nolans
Sam Lavery - It's Raining Men by The Weather Girls

Honey G - Rock This Party (Everybody Dance Now) by Bob Sinclar
Saara Aalto - I'm So Excited by The Pointer Sisters

5 After Midnight - Shake Your Body (Down to the Ground) by The Jacksons

My ideas will ever happen but real old Studio 54 classics like Shame, In The Bush, Everybody Dance, Lets All Chant, Hot Shot, Turn The Beat Around, Instant Reply, Shake Your Groove Thang, Mighty Real, Contact - that sort of thing

Indeed.

Along with Ain't Nobody and Somebody Else's Guy.

Along with a Michael Jackson tune, probably Rock With You.

Along comes Ms Pedant to comment that neither of those are actually disco but the it's XF and I doubt any of the songs will really be genuine fits to the theme

I love those you have listed! My face is shake your groove thang!!! Those are real disco songs but you are right we won't see them on XF though SYGT might happen

Emily - Ain't Nobody
Sam - I Will Survive

Saara - No More Tears (Enough is Enough)
Honey - Oh What A Night (90s rap version but with changed lyrics)

5AM - Car Wash

Ryan - Relight My Fire
Matt - You Sexy Thing

Liking this for HG....too much will Smith may blow it for her....Pointer Sisters a good one for Saraa too....!!!!

How about 'Tragedy' to sum up the pathetic demise of this show over the the past few years.
