X Factor - Love Songs
The theme for this week’s X Factor was love songs, and the calibre was very high with great performances from all of them.
Rhydian knocked it out of the park as usual with a brilliant rendition of Somewhere, from West Side Story.
Louis criticised Hope for performing a solo artists song (Hurt by Christina Aguilera), with Phoebe on lead and the rest just ooh-ing and aah-ing. Of course the irony of this criticism was that his group Westlife have just covered a solo artist’s song (Home by Michael Buble) with Shane on lead the rest just ooh-ing and aah-ing.
Beverly - despite giving a great performance obviously doesn’t have the same fan base as the rest as she finished in the bottom two -along with Hope - and after a deadlock in the judges voting, it turned out she finished last in the public vote. Being the first act up probably didn’t help her either.
Next week’s theme is Best of British, and Duran Duran will be performing.
