Thanks for that!

Have Ju'Not and Lil got no imagination? I know those songs helped them out in Hollywood, but surely npot the only ones which work for them?

2 Eltons and 2 Alicias - Kristen's also singing the Tracy C song which Sparky did a couple of years ago. Kristen's one of my faves this year at the moment, but Sparky's my fave ever (out of all singers) so this could make or break her with me!

Funnily enough, I wondered if Abba would work for Arianna, it's kind of youbng but not, because of my fave film Mamma Mia. I do like my Pockdtful Of Sunshine idea for her though, hope she gets a chance to do that sometime!

Nathaniel's being a bit brave, do like him though. Don't know Scott or Kendall's songs, also about Jorge's, thought he ewould go upbeat,good song though. Alex is falling back on Elton like he did on Judgement Day, but at least it's a different song.

Oh, and all I remember of Von's is that Sparky and Ruben did it in the final the year Sparky won. Don't know hpw ot will work for him, but could be interesting. Lil's song's not the best in the world, but is modern and hot overdone, and she's nit my fsve anyway but is guaranteed Top 12 so doesn't matter what I think lol

Thanks again, hope these song choices mean my faves did well!

I put this up just for u because your the only one that seems to look at it. LOL

Lil didn't do that song in Hollywood she did "If I Aint Got U" but Junot did his song again but I thought both of their songs tonight suited their voices very well but that's all I'm going to say.

I was going to mention that Kristen did the same song as Jordin did in the semifinals in the recap but I forgot to, let's just say one of them was better than the other, same thing with Von. I can't say much about Scott without giving anything away so I know Scott's one of your favs. so whatever thoughts you had about him going in it worked, LOL. Okay that's it I hope i didn't spoil too much!!!

Aw thanks! Special treatment, huh?

Sorry about the Lil mix-up - I meant Taylor, it's just that she sang the same song as Lil in Hollywood lol! Don't like Taylor too much anyway, all those comparisons with Jordin seem unfounded, yet to me, Jordin is VERY SPECIAL and for a while I hated JLS on XF for singing No Air, love them now! Doesn't sound like Taylor made the most of her song though

Speaking of which, bet it was Jordin who was better than Kristen - but I still hope Kristen makes it through, even if it's as a wildcard. Will be interested to watch Nate's performance, and Arianna's as I think I just like her name, but it could be that personality-wise she reminded me of Jordin (which doesn't bother me like a vocal imitation does)

I did like Ju'Not with Hey There Delilah, just wish he'd picked something else so we could see some versatility but it sounds like he changed it up a bit.

Glad Scott delivered! Really ope he makes it through, sounds like he will! I'm not one for"sob stories", but Scott's is the same as mine lol! Anyway, I asked myself in Hollywood if that was the only reason I was cheering him on and it wasn't, sounds like I had good reason!

You'd never spoil too mich for me - the only way you could do that would be by tricking me into watching videos of the performances! I can read about what others think until I'm blue in the face but won't necessarily agree, if that makes sense lol

Anyway, big thanks again for putting this up! Can't wait until tomoz, will be at pub quiz but taping it!

Won't get the results til Sat, poor me, I'm only going to the X Factor tour! Lol!

I agree. From that first week when Jordin performed that song I had her down as the winner.

I didn't know if she would win at that point, as Melinda and LaKisha had so much hype (although they, particularly Melinda, weren't exactly without their talents) but it was an amazing performance by Jordin, who I always nicknamed Sparky but should stop dping that so much these days as that's my dog's name - after Jordin, of course

Last year, David Cook's Happy Together made him my favourite contestant, althoughhe was later joined by Kristy

I seem to have a few more favourites this year, but they're not as firm yet - and I don't know how many I'll have by the time the top 12's been completed
