Conspiracy theory number 1: I wonder if Daniel and Rachel's voices are actually on the record - or did the judges expect them both to be out by the time it was released Conspiracy theory number 2 Did the judges save Daniel because they know he won't improve and is likely to be in the bottom two week after week, which means if a 'favourite' lands in the bottom two Daniel can be used as cannon fodder? I thought Scott was much better this week and didn't deserve to go. Putting the poorer singers on first week after week is becoming very transparent

Kim Conspiracy theory number 2 -- brilliant point If Diana is ever in the bottom 2 (hope that wont happen) and has to sing a diff song....Would love to hear her sing The Cranberries - Linger uk.youtube.com/watch?v=01KQfcSCRbw

Yeah Diana would be perfect to sing Linger. I used to love that song. Okay here is my take on the acts. Scott - very good opening to the show. He sang his heart out. Just a shame for him that he was on first as SCD didn't finish until 8pm hence a lot of people still watching that and not getting to see the first two performances.
Daniel - I thought he sang really well, definitely his best performance to date. But why have they dyed his hair from blonde to a funny gingery colour??
Laura - I felt the same as you Kim about Laura's performance. I couldn't understand a word of it until she got to the middle part of the song. She belted it out at the end, and did well, but I didn't think she was as good as the judges made her out to be with that song.
Eoghan - Didn't like his performance at all. He annoys the hell out of me and is out of his depth. Don't think he should be in the final 12 as his voice is too weak.
Ruth - Don't really like her but her performance was very good, and definitely her best so far.
Alexandra - I thought she was very good, and even though she was out of her comfort zone she performed well.
Austin - I just think he has an amazing voice and sang his heart out.
JLS - I enjoyed their performance and I must admit I did vote once for them when Simon said they could be in trouble as it's so hard for 4 guys to sing a song made for one person. Love Aston's voice and he's so cute bless him.
Diana - She sounded fantastic singing Smile. Really suited her voice.
Rachel - Wow she sounded amazing tonight. Definitely one of the best of the night.
I really felt for Scott and Daniel in the bottom two, but when it came to their own song choices, Daniel just went for it and completely blew me away with that song. Very emotional, and on that performance alone, he deserved to stay, even though Scott has a great voice.

Hello everybody! Remember me? ;D. I found the link to this place last night, so thought I'd come on and have a nosey at what everyone has to say about the X Factor. JLS are my favourites, alng with Diana But I think that Aston (the small one that wears the blue) is a much better singer than the rest. The guy with half shaved head is a pretty bad singer, so is the one with the really high pitched voice (when he talks and sings) The other one, Ortise? is pretty good. But I think the small one's voice is a lot better than the others ;D. I think Laura is completely ovverated. I'm glad people on here think so too, everyone else I've spoke to thinks she's "incredible" Is it just me or is the first half of every song she sings absolutely awful? Then she pick up when she gets to the high notes, but what is so good about someone who screeches their way through songs? I don't like her, she's trying to be a bit like Duffy/Amy Winehouse And Rachel annoys the life out of me as a person She's even worse now with the whole "It's been taking on board" now she just sounds fake I thought she was good yesterday, but she's a bit shouty, it's not even as though it's only when she gets to the peak of the song, all the way through she just sings in one range, which sounds like shouting to me? I wonder how people like Diana should do this Saturday with it being disco week, I can't imagine her singing upbeat

Hi Stacey. Long time no speak. Good to see you on here. I like Diana, she has a really nice tone to her voice, but her hand movements are quite annoying. I noticed her do this throughout her first song, but then when she did the same thing again throughout Hero, I must admit it did annoy me a little. lol Now I am just thinking has she been doing this since week one and I have ony just noticed? ;D

Thanks for the welcome back everyone! I never seen JLS on This Morning, I'll have to look it up on Youtube . I'm not really getting the whole hype surrounding Eoghan I thought he was terrible in some parts of his song tonight. But then again, I'm usually completely wrong about these things haha, like Laura, the judges all love her but I just can't take to her for some reason.

Alexandra Burke She was brilliant..
Austin Drage Again bad start, he was ok.
Daniel Evans His voice is not that bad, but I really feel sorry for him, he is so out of his depth.
Rachel Hylton Average to say the least, think the pressure is getting to her
JLS Brilliant, comments spot on Aston taking lead vocals and the rest harmonising they were great..
Ruth Lorenzo Good vocals, but bores me
Eoghan Quigg Few bum notes...but enjoyed it. was very HSM..
Diana Vickers Bloody brilliant, really loving this girl, except for the choreography!!
Laura White Don't like this record at all, but vocals are good, agree with Simon about the image.. Bottom 2 Daniel - Rachel
