susanbb Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 So sorry. I can't find my previous thread so thought I'd start another. Loved the final 12 but think that Daniel and Scott may be in the bottom 2. The girls were just so HOT. Well done Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 I agree. Didn't think much to Bad lashes. Fab Rachel had an awful song, but still did a great job. Thought Laura very good tonight, now that she has simplified things and stopped being too contrived. Still Don't get Diana. Original thread **here** in case anyone wants to refer back to it.

Mrs Frugal Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 We loved Diana. A lovely performance. Laura was terrific too. Shame that Rachel's song was such a terrible choice but she sang it well. Aoghen was lovely but the other boys were not particularly memorable. Neither of us liked Bad Lashes but did like Girl Band and we wish that the Spanish girl would stop singing bits in Spanish! One language or the other please!!

deejmum Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Loved Diana, Laura,and Alexandra, but I wish people would stop calling her AlexanDER. I think Daniel and Bad lashes may be in trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joojoo Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Oh my word. Got the final2 soooo wrong Me too I was convinced it was going to be Scott and Daniel. Think Girl Band will (should) go through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susanbb Posted October 11, 2008 Author Share Posted October 11, 2008 Never seen "Deadlock" before. Blimey. That was so hard a decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 They were both dire in the sing off, but that rendition of Wonderwall was truly horrendous. Can't decide whether Louis is a coward or whether he did the right thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 The right ones were at the bottom, and the right band got sent home - they should never have been there in the first place! I think Diana's voice will start to get on my nerves - Simon was right likening her to marmite! Laura was definitely great! What really winds me up is when the female judges simper "oooh, this is so hard, do I have to make a decision?" OH told me off for shouting "YES YOU DO, GET ON WITH IT!!!!!" at the telly.

AnnieP Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Surely Rachel has got to win this? Her voice is simply outstanding compared to the rest of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clootie Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I think the under 25's are very strong this year and my money is on Laura. I had goosebumps when she sang last night. Whatever happens, she has a great future ahead of her. Alexandra is a class act too. I find sitting through the boy/girl bands torture this time round though. The attitude of the mouthy one (over 25's - forget her name), hopefully will change as she settles in. Grates a bit. Oops, that would be Rachel then !!

I don't think her attitude will change and I think that that is what will spoil it for her. What is it with "bobbing" boy bands I agree that the girls are the strongest group but I think that they main voters are young girls and, whilst I don't think he is the best, my money is on Austin.

Jillus Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 My money is on Laura too although Alexandra is also terrific, the girls bands are dreadful and Scott and Daniel should never have been there in the first place IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 In case anyone is interested, Peter Kay's spoof version "Britains Got The Pop Factor and possibly the new Celebrity Jesus Christ Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice" is on Channel 4 tonight at 8.15 then the results show is on at 10pm I'll be watching.

Emma Tarpey Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I reckon that there was nothing special about either of the girl bands The only jusdge to get ALL the songs write was cheryl lover her Didn't like scott thought he was EXTREMELY lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I thought that Scott was given the wrong song completely and was saying that to hubby as he sang it, then they all said the same thing. I am glad Simon put his hands up and admitted he got it wrong. Laura was brilliant. Diana started rough, then I warmed a 'bit', but then changed my mind as I felt she murdered the song (and I love that song) JLS were good, but then again I like that song as well. The girls bands were dreadful and should NOT have gone through in the first place. Rachel was dealt a bad hand with that song, but she worked some magic with it that saw her through. Let's hope they don't let her down this week. Michael Jackson week or Jackson 5... now speaking as a HUGE fan for many years if they kill one of those songs I will not be happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitbag Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Same, I will be very unhappy if they ruin MJ's songs for me!! I am such a big fan of Michael Jackson. Kitbag xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
