26.11.11 X-Factor Wk8 Part B

Ding-Ding, round 2

Pick-n-Mix
Well!  That was rather good.  What a contrast to the first song.  They all had a go/contribution, and need to go through.

Janet Devil-In-The-Detail
Sorry, love, but a few weeks ago this might have worked.  Now, after confirming to us all that you're so limited, I find I am rather tired of your voice, and it was a bit strained as you forced through the words with the obligatory little noise at the end of each line.  You remembered the words this time.  Agreed, TTT, regarding "the second one was not much better". 

MishMash B-
Not so much 'Killing Me Softly', as 'Scratching Me Roughly'.  Get that fingernail cut!  It was okay; as her name suggests, B-Minus.  Any song, though, that has a few 'lah lah lahs' is a bit limp.  I can't say I was entertained by this performance.  TC - "I would say this is the best week you've ever had".  What?  Get it right, Tulisa.  It was average.

Mark Us
Fair play for doing a simple performance and just singing.  However, he only just managed to hang in there early on.  Towards the end it worked out okay.  Still, a boring song and I found myself waiting for it to be over.  The Elf - "You nailed it, you made it your own, you can sing, you can dance.  Its a talent show, you've got talent.  I want you to make it all the way to the final."  Blimey, Elf, what about a few more cliches?  How about "The lad played well, it's a competition of two halves" or maybe "Oranges and Lemons, said the Bells of St Clements" because that's no more useless than everything else you say.

Amyl Nitrate
KR - Why do you keep calling her Amillia, instead of Amelia ???  The first bit of the song was mildly worrying, but then it got going and became average.  Elf asks everybody in the "North of England" to vote.  What the fuck is this shit about trying to summon support on a regional basis?  The North of England could in fact be anywhere up from Birmingham.  So what are people in Manchester to do, if they're asked to support Misha, or those in Liverpool who have been rallied to support Marcus?

Janet to go?  Yes, please.
