In case you didn’t Sky+ the performances, here’s an overview of X-Factor ’s semi finals (show 9).
Alexandra Burke
Don’t Stop The Music; great choice, she shows she can dance and sing.
Un-break My Heart; Alexandra is such a professional. She works it. Well, maybe not that jump suit.
Diana Vickers
White Flag; Diana proves she still can’t hold a note. Even on a simple Dido song. No offence, but she’s not a great singer, nor a great entertainer.
Girlfriend; odd song choice. Both you and I know we would knock her out if she laid her eyes on your boyfriend.
JLS
Umbrella; quite slick and non-descript, but Aston’s back flip gives it the needed wow-factor.
I’m Already There; epic ballad, but it sounds too much like Boys II Men meets Westlife. Not something we want.
Eoghan Quigg
Year 3000; Quite likable! Finally a song that’s fun and young.
Does Your Mother Know? Eoghan comes out as an ABBA fan. Shocker! Shame he has to pick one of their naffest songs (Simon, Dannii was right!).
So overall, Alexandra was amazing, the boys were okay and Diana – who should have left the show weeks ago – finally made her exit.
Who will you be voting for next week?
