    Is there a theme tonight (I'm struggling to see one!)?

    I hate to say it, but Rachel might not make a hash of her song tonight, if it's the one I'm thinking of (Amy Winehouse?). I imagine Daniel's 'It's not unusual' will be quite cringy though.

    The best of British is the theme.

    Leona is also performing.

    Ah, thanks TT, that would explain the eclectic mix there.

    I hope JLS pull off their medley, I really like them, and Ruth too. I'm not keen on 'Never ever'.

    Surely, surely Daniel has to leave tonight (I've been saying that every week for at least the last 4!).

    Danial HAS to go. I just can't see him becoming a top selling recording artist. With Alexandra, I can. I think she'll sail into the final. She's not my favourite, little Eoghan is but I think he can only do ballads well.

    I really dislike Rachel. I find her quite bolshy and her voice irritates the life out of me.

    Ruth has something about her. I like the fact that she has a rocky edge to her and her style seems quite versatile.

    Bugger - I'm at work and actually have to do some work but will be back when watching the show tonight.

    Alexandra certainly should sail into the final. I hope Eoghan stays in too, because I can't cope with my 7 year old's histrionics if he leaves. She's already shed tears (yes, really) over Scott going and has transferred alliegance to Eoghan. If he goes too...

    RACHEL TO GO!! Horrible, bitchy, aggressive, bolshy, intimidating vile woman. It's rare I get so worked up but she really is awful in every sense and I'd rather Daniel stayed another week just to spite her!! Mwa ha haaaa.

    I'm concerned Ruth's version of Angels will just sound like karaoke.

    I agree with you CBH, I'd rather see Daniel stay too, but I have a nasty feeling the song tonight might suit Rachel's voice. Mind you, what do I know, I thought she sounded dreadful last week, out of tune and raspy, and everyone loved her.

    "Everyone loved her" - if by that you mean the judges deliberately said she did well to get people to vote for her then yes, you're spot on!! ? Talk about manipulating the public <rolls eyes>

    That's just what I mean CBH. I literally couldn't believe that none of them commented on at least two occasions where she was painfully flat, then she was kept in by public vote. Presumably half the X factor public are tone deaf then, or just fall for a sob story. I thought she did herself no favours by having a hissy fit at/about Dannii, but that didn;t seem to make any difference.

    Tonight should be interesting, I am hoping that Daniel goes as he really doesn't bring anything to the competition however I am willing to bypass him going if it means that Rachel goes, she gives me the rage badly and my day couldn't get any worse for the rage.

    I like Diana and would like her to win, if not her then Alexandra or Ruth.

    Alexandra annoys me with her Tony the Tiger act of I feel grrreat/fantastic/amazing/I could die happy now.

    I want JLS and Diana in the final!

    According to itv.com, Diana's song has been changed to Yellow (Coldplay)

    I hope Daniel goes tonight - the judges are going to toitally slate him singing Its not unusual. I think Dannii gets the song choices all wrong for her acts.

    I think 'Yellow' is a far better song choice for Diana than 'Never Ever'.

    I feel a bit sorry for Dannii actually. Firstly she's eclipsed by Cheryl, then she gets slated by Rachel (whose own song choices haven't been that great either - I give you Dirty Diana, and last week's terrible offering). Some of her song choices haven't been that great, but some of them have been OK.

    Hmm, JLS doing the three most hackneyed Beatles songs possible, well done Louis. ? And Angels ffs? If I never hear that song again it'll be too soon.

    The best choices are for Rachel and Alexandra I think.

    Me neither. They just sounded too young, their voices too immature and IMO their harmonies weren't spot on

    They're OK, but that really wasn't a great performance tonight. They pulled it together a bit for Hey Jude, but the rest was rubbish, very very weak.

    This is the first time I've watched X-Factor (this series I mean)

    What does JLS stand for? Just Lame Singers?

    Rachel has got a voice like a robber's dog, with the face and attitude to match. I know i'm sounding very negative tonight ?, but she just doesn't seem to have any redeeming features what so ever.

    I think Rachel was really good. JLS were dull, but it wasn't their fault.
