APOLOGIES if there's already a thread on this lurking....

Was mulling this over whilst on an unfortunate car journey from hell...

My three faves, after much deliberation, are:

1. Paint it Black - (tough call along with Bad Day...)
2. You Give me Something (sadly IMO, I never thought Daniel reached this same success after singing this great number)
3. Being Alive by Seamus (loved this performance)

and for a bonus number 4.... Keith when he sang "Love is All around" - really suited him.

Individually

1. Paint it Black (lee)
2. Lady is a tramp (daniel)
3. This is the moment (craig)

Groups
1 you reallyget me
2 Dirty Dancing cant remember the song just lees hips
3 Luck be a lady

Sorry I tried to make it a top 3 but it came out a top 5!

In no particular order:
Daniel - You Give Me Something

Lee - Bad Day

Keith - Always On my Mind

Ben - Help Yourself

Daniel - The Lady Is A Tramp

Hi

Bad Day
Paint it Black
Lady is a Tramp

Was just about to watch Lee (yet again) but switched on the Soap awards - have you seen what Fern is wearing?

Great Thread

In no particular order (actually no, in strict order of preference)

1. Lee - Paint it Black, performance of the series, I don't have the words to convey how good it was.

2. Daniel - The Lady is a Tramp, just adorable, all the charm in the world.

3. Lee - I don't wanna talk about it, gorgeous, I wanted to be that girl sooooo badly

Sorry I hope I'm allowed 2 performances from the same contestant in my top 3.

Bonus number 4. Craig - This is the moment, I was punching the air after this, I knew he had it in him.

If I was allowed a few more choices, I'd imagine performances from Ben and Seamus might slip in there too.

You're allowed extra as you complimented my thread

Sing off between Ben and Seamus when it looked like Seamus had it in the bag and Ben gave it his all.

Daniel's first one - was it you give me something?

And hard to choose between Born to be Wild and Do you love me..............Ben Ben Ben all the way

If I was allowed more am sure a couple of Lee's would be in there

Thank you

Hmmmm You could divide this up in so many ways! and there are so many that I loved...

Individual
1) Help yourself - Ben
2) Blue Suede Shoes - Ben
3) Paint it Black - Lee

Group
1) Pinball Wizard
2) Do You Love Me
3) The meatloaf one (cant remember the name!)

Sing-off
1) ben and seamus
2) chris b and craig
3) rob and lewis

such a hard decision though i keep changing my mind!! if i was choosing overall then i'm not sure what i'd go for and the only one i'm sure would be there would be the ben/seamus sing-off

I'm just going for the individual songs here, in no particular order:

1. Daniel - You Give Me Something
2. Ben - Help Yourself
3. Lee - Paint It Black

Well if other people are doing group and sing-offs I don't see why I would hold back

Group
1. Do you love me, this was great (especially Ben)
2. Luck be a lady, one of the few traditional musical theatre numbers we got to see, wish there were more of these.
3. Go go go Joseph, great energy in this.

Sing offs
1. Daniel and Lewis, very emotional, but superb performance from Daniel.
2. Ben and Seamus, for obvious reasons.
3. Lewis and Rob, more because I liked the song than any particular attachments to the contestants.

Easy:

Daniel-Lady is a Tramp....totally fantastic
Daniel-You give Me Something....just tingling to hear
Daniel-in sing-off with Lewis
.....and Daniel in Close Every Door....superlative performance, the best I've ever seen/heard.

Ok, of the others, I must admit Lee doing the Daydream Believer was truly beauteous but it's the only time he got to me, possibly because that's one of my fave, fave songs.

Keith's had a few nice performances too.

Chris B -- Walking in Menphis
Daniel -- The lady is a Tramp
Lee -- Paint it Black

Group -- Luck be a Lady
Pinball wizard
meatloaf

Singoff -- Seamus Ben
Chris Craig
Daniel Lewis

Lee - Paint it Black

2.Chris B - Walking in Memphis
3.Chris B - I'll be there
4.Lee - Daydream Believer

2.Go go go Joseph
3.Pinball Wizard

Sing-offs

1.Chris B and Johndeep
2.Lewis and Daniel
3. Chris B and Craig
4.Seamus and Ben

Ok I'll obey the rules and stick to 3:

He's my brother - because it showed the difference between a good singer and a MT performer. Ben just nailed it esp. with the cheeky pat on the shoulder which had the panel killing themselves with amusement and the audience going wild.

Paint it Black - amazing interpretation - so intense and believable

3rd much harder - perhaps one of the group numbers from last week.

OK i'm going to break the rules - also Blue suede shoes because it was fun! Also one of Keith's songs can't remember which he did great.

Whoops that's 5

1st - Paint it black - Lee
2nd - If i leave right now - Lee
3rd - Daydream believer - Lee (cheesy but i love that song)

Individual

Lee - I don't wanna talk about it
Lee - Paint it Black
Rob - Piano Man

Group

Pinball wizard
Luck be a lady
Do you love me

1. Help Yourself - Ben
2. Blue Suede Shoes - Ben
3. Leave Right Now - Lee

Group
1. Do You Love Me (Ben's gyrating hip swivel )
=1. She Loves You (All Joes great in this)
3. One More Angel In Heaven (made me laugh?)

Sing Off
1. Seamus & Ben - He's my Brother (Yey, Ben)
2. Daniel & Lewis - Bring Him Home (Daniel astonishing!)

Lee - I don't wanna talk about it (not perfect tuning-wise, but really had me engrossed and so subtle - showed me for the first time just how good he is)

Craig - This is the Moment (not one of the best performances, but I enjoyed it as it was the first time we'd really seen what he could do)

Rob - first performance (can't actually remember what it was and again, not one of the best, it was full of so much passion and enthusiasm that I couldn't help enjoying it)

1. Do You Love Me

3. Keith - Who Am I/Lewis - Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word/Ben - Blue Suede Shoes/Seamus - Being Alive )couldn't chose just one)

Sing Offs or Close Door
