I'd say "Working My Way Back To You" has elements of both disco and soul. Has that been confirmed for JLS yet?

It could be at a push I guess, just like George Mcrae is classed as Disco even though I'd consider it soul. I suppose it all depends really. Think it would suit them though, so who knows what Louis will try?


No it hasn't been confirmed- just that they are doing a Detroit Spinners - but that is one of their songs that I would like them to do and think would suit them.

Good song but not exactly disco. "Call Me" is more rock isn't it?

Maybe because Giorgio Moroder wrote it, the guy who wrote many of Donna Summer's hits.

I would say a mix of rock & nu wave

It wasnt disco music when I was strutting my stuff on the dance floor

I think "Atomic" would have suited her voice better actually. But I suppose more people are familiar with "Call Me"...

Anyone heard of this genre

I think Call Me is fine for her having just listened to it, i wouldn't be surprised if Diana has sang all these songs before

Listening to it now, it's a really good song. I think they will shine in "Working My Way Back To You"

I like that song as well, it's about time they were giving a decent soul song

if they sing this i think they'd tear the place up, i think it would suit them..

It's deffo more Disco than Diana's choice. I really hope they are given that - granted it isn't Disco ''Disco'', but they always try and blur the boundaries a bit with song choices.

And being Louis' last act, wouldn't suprise me if they get given a more soulful song like this. I heard them on This Morning today, singing Rule The World accapella...bloody marvellous. I reckon this could be a great week for JLS.

Has anyone figured out what Alexandra is singing. She said it was a song she has done once before. Does anyone remember what she sang in 2005?
