Oh I was late this week   at Fleur reprising Bang Bang, she's safe with that, no need to worry.Urgh at the same old Smile, Cry Me A River though, Ben is so MOTR now that it's painful. |

Fleur cheating the theme as it's not a Big Band song, and I remember how Jamie Archer was received doing a U2 song in his series on Big Band and I don't see how this is any different. And Andrea will be slaughtered by Leona fans. |

And I'm a Leona fan but i hated her version of Summertime, i much preferred Ruth's, but I'm sure Andrea is going to put his name on it. |

I think for once they have all got it spot on, apart from Louis! Shows what a naff mentor he is. I thought it would be only the young vs stereo kicks bottom two anyway and it looks like I might be right. So excited for Fleur and Ben my two favourites in the competition  I think Andrea is going to be the stand out of the night

Leona singing Summertime > Andrea is such a cliché |

Bang Bang is not a big band song,  but at least we have been spared Mack the Knife

| The best version of Summertime I've heard on a singing show is Fantasia from AI, hopefully he does something similar to that. |

really, nobody cares Fleur would never enter into a world of releasing big band music, and I wish the UK's fixation with tedious, soulless pudding-faced crooners like Buble and Groban would piss off. the theme, really, is that they're all going to be performed by a live band there on the night. Forcing them all to sing songs that were out 60 years ago is neither productive nor interesting. |

It doesn't matter what genre they're going to go out into after the show though, it's about there being a theme and people sticking to it, they should be able to show their versatility. Look at the backlash Tulisa got when she gave Little Mix a Kesha song on rock week, there was uproar, so i don't see how it's fair for Simon to ignore the theme himself. |
