The song lists have been 'reportedly' revealed by Digital Spy:

Joe McElderry


'Dance With My Father' - Luther Vandross
'Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me' with George Michael
'Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word' - Elton John

Stacey Solomon

'Wonderful World' - Louis Armstrong
'Feeling Good' with Michael Bublé
'Who Wants To Live Forever' - Queen

Olly Murs

'Superstition' - Stevie Wonder
'Angels' with Robbie Williams
'Fool In Love' - Tina Turner

All but Olly's last song make sense... but that's nothing new, Olly being given a bad song choice.

Olly's last song makes sense, it was one of his better performances, one of two that I've actually liked (the other people Come Together). I can't see Olly surviving tonight though, he can't sing ballads and will be shown up by Robbie Williams (I never thought I'd say Robbie will show someone up Laughing).

I'm backing Stacey to win. Joe is a good singer and a nice enough lad but he doesn't do anything for me.

Joe will win by a landslide anyway, but not winning this year will be a blessing in disguise. Its more of a 'Leon' year so theres less pressure on second and third place to do well, and they will both get record contracts.

Robbie could show up most of this year's contestants seeing he's not just a singer, but a performer. There are reasons he's seen as highly as Freddie Mercury for this generation for being an all rounder. Afterall, he was chosen to sing Queen at Live8.

As for X Factor, I think Joe is more of a theatrical singer and should be in Joseph, not an album. Stacey is good, but couldn't do an interview to save her life! For me it should be Olly, as the others have years to get somewhere, for Olly this could maybe be it.

I think the best Olly and Stacey should hope for is second place. If he wins he will be in the shadow of Alexandra and Leona, and called a flop because he won't have stateside success. Stacey will suffer the same problems having a much weaker voice, but I think both can go on to have fair success on the scale of Little Boots, Pixie Lott etc. I.e. not the greatest success, but still enough to justify a signing. Joe I can't see having any kind of success after the initial win and single next October, but I can see him being absolutely massive in the West End (think Brenda from series 2).

I have to ask, does the song come out for the winner on monday?

If it does it may get to no1, 20th dec, but it may not win the Christmas no1 on 25, I dare say the protest group may.... you get the idea

After all the grandeur this year, they really need the final at the o2, it feels like the studio is too small for the event that this is meant to be.

Comes out when the winner is announced on downloads I think, the CD is in the shops on the Tuesday I think looking at previous history. Just wondering if they ill make a big deal of it this year with Andi Peters at the factory with downloads outweighing cd's in sale (and their main point of sale Woolworths closing down, who would sell the cd apart from Supermarkets/HMV?)
