The X Factor

MacDonald Brothers were far better this week. And the dark haired one (Brian I think he's called) is fit as f**k

However Louis saying that havent been in the bottom 2 and saying they have some sort of huge fanbase - for all he knows they could have got the 3rd lowest votes.

Well, Leeona has just given the show a much needed kick up the arse -What a performance.

Why is there a whistle being used when ever the audience cheer? Its really annoying.

Cameras on ray's song were a bit strange, and a bit of mic feeback tonight, but generally good as always.

The arguing amongst the jusdges has now turned to passionate kissing!!!?

Very good singing overall - looking forward to eton road

Last week the audience were provided with whistles AND claxons. Luckily they've thought better this week.

Please get rid of either

Ray,
Macdonald Brothers,
Ashley.

I agree with Simon that Eton Road's song was a bit all over the place but the performance was still great.

Id like to see Ray and Robert go.

Once again i loved Eton Road, although i am bias. Personally i dont get the obsession with Ben and Leona. They just dont work for me, very over rated.
As for Ray i can see why some people dont like him, but seems ok ish. I think if the judges get there way it will be Dionne and Macdonald Brothers out tonight.

I am so backing Leona after tonight. Nobody else comes close.

Well having seen most of tonight's contenders, here is my unbiased opinion.

Ray
Really wasn't impressed with this one. As above - incessant smiling is annoying and pronunciation was terrible. Slid all over the place when shifting between notes as well. Poor.

Dionne
More suited to a diva-style Houston/Carey ballad, tonight I felt she was quite bland. I'm tired of singers putting top notes in their songs just to get the crowd going. The top G was out of place and went towards the end. Again, not the best.

Nikitta
Her version of Sway was sound - and I'm not sure why she's in this competition. She would be suited as one of the professional singers on SCD. Didn't see much of this performance though - may have to wait for the full one to comment properly.

Kerry
Not bad - again didn't see much of this performance but from what I can tell she didn't go for the ridiculous vocal acrobatics.

Macdonald Brothers
Pointless. Don't know why they're there, when it's obvious they should be down in the pub on the karaoke. I've seen less turd in a backed-up British Rail toilet.

Ashley
Absolutely terrible. Shoddy voice and ridiculous quivering on the notes. One of my favourite songs (and a song which I sing myself at gigs) but that has truly murdered it for me. Would inspire the wolves more than people to dance at the moon.

Ben
Zzzzzzzzz.

Leona
Didn't see, but most likely zzzzzzzz.

Eton Rd
Shambolic.

Hello, as someone who's working tonight and occasionally checking onto TVF, can I just ask - pretty please - that the thread title isn't updated to say whoever goes?! I'd like to watch it when I get home later... Ta!

I swear - i knew it was gonna be like this!!! shame
