The only song I heard (unconfirmed)..Rhy dian/KG...You raise me up... Will leave the rest to Kim...She gets it spot on.. Ooooh, not heard that rumour Joyce Thursday morning is usually the time ITV puts that weeks songs up on the XF site, so not too long to wait (unless they decide to keep them quiet because it's the final )

I can't believe it's the final this week. It's gone so quickly. At least Strictly come Dancing is on for another week, otherwise I would be well and truly lost. I wonder if the contestants will sing a Christmas song this week. I hope so. I would love to hear Rhydian sing O Holy Night.

Songs for final: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rhydian O Holy Night Duet With Katherine Jenkins... You Raise Me Up Somewhere Same Difference All I Want For Christmas Is You Duet With Jason Donovan... Any Dream Will Do Breaking Free Leon White Christmas Duet With Kylie... Better The Devil You Now You Don’t Know Me Don't fancy Leon's chances - better the devil you know - he's not suited to that at all

Kim I thought the same..But listen to this..if he holds his nerves he could pull it off uk.youtube.com/watch?v=MTsou-d8JoERhydian should walk this....the song choices are best suited to his beautiful voice..But Leon and SD have such a strong following I don't think it will be a one horse race..it will depend on how Leon/SD cope with their songs.. Fingers x Rhyd to win..

lol I said I wanted Rhydian to sing O Holy Night and what is he singing..... ;D His song choices are fab. Definitely the better of the three. I'm not so sure about Leon singing Better the devil you know, either. What an odd choice. I thought him and Kylie may have sang "kids". It seems to have turned into an England v Scotland v Wales contest when you hear the ad for this weeks final on the tv, rather than a singing competition.

Yes, you're right Joyce, he should do a good job of singing that, but I cannot imagine what sort of performance he will do considering he still shakes when singing by himself let alone with Kylie ;D Caz - do you reckon Simon Cowell reads this board? ;D

I think Caz has inside information!!! ;D Great choices for Rhydian. In theory he should walk it but the other 2 do seem to have a big following so I'll be watching the show chewing my nails!! When I saw that Leon was singing better the devil, I was shocked! Until I watched the vid that Joyce posted. He could do very well if he pulls it off, think he needs more work the dancing aspect though ;D SD songs seem quite good too. All I want for Christmas is you sounds so wrong though with them singing it

Excuse me if I ramble - I've been at the Christmas alcohol Before the show began I thought SD were in with a chance. But after seeing the show Rhydian should walk it, he was superb. However I would award the Christmas song round to SD, the duets to Leon (he did surprisingly well with Kylie ) and the favourite song round to Rhydian with Leon a close second. I'll be gobsmacked if Rhydian doesn't win.

Thought KJ absolutely killed the duet with Rhydian..worst performance of the night Best was Somewhere..And agree with Kim best xmas song was SD...Rhydian should win..but it could go to anyone of them..

I can't believe it either Kim. Gutted for Rhydian. He outsung them all tonight and should have won. The only thing I can think of what went against Rhydian is when Dermot said it was really close between the bottom 2, and everyone presumed it was SD and Leon, and the Scots would have voted like mad, and that has tipped the votes in his favour?? The winners song slightly suited Leon's voice more, but overall there was no contest, Rhydian has been superb every week, where as Leon hasn't. I'm thinking he will definitely be a one hit wonder, where as Rhydian should hopefully get something out of this and have a big career ahead of him.( I am absolutely, completely and utterly gobsmacked I cannot believe Leon won, it was definitely the tears what done it. Still Rhydian didn't need to win, he's a star, whereas Leon would have been forgotten in a couple of months. I can't help thinking SC will do exactly the same to Leon as he did to Steve - an album of covers, then obscurity
