X-factor 08/11/08

[Muppetgal]

I'm off work tonight as my mum is here so we're going to watch it (despite the fact it's Mariah Carey night :zombie: )

So who is around watching tonight??

[1980babe]

Am waiting for it.

Mariah Carey week, hmm....

[calgal]

I'm watching :grin:

Was just about to start a thread :wink:

[Gemiloch]

mmmm not sure, I can't stick Mariah Carey but I'll give it a coule of songs and see if I'm pulling my hair out by then...

[Muppetgal]

I'm watching :grin:

Was just about to start a thread :wink:

ah, got in there before ya!! I used to do it last year when I didn't have a job that meant I had to watch it on rerun every week :sigh:. It's a novelty getting to watch it live!!!

:lol:

[Ajedrez]

Against my better judgement I have it on in the background - I can't BEAR MC though except for one song when she's on a rollercoaster in the video (god what an embarrassing admission!!)

[Muppetgal]

they don't usually have the guest star until the results show right??

[calgal]

I can't believe we are half way through the live shows :faint:

How gorgeous does Cheryl look every week??? And how high are her shoes this week :bow:

[Bettie May]

How is MC so successful.... I don't know anybody that likes her.... she is such an arse.

[Bettie May]

In love wit chew?????

[Gemiloch]

is her dress going to stay up til the end of the song????

[Gemiloch]

Ah I've just noticed the straps, I did wonder how exactly it was defying gravity so well :lol:

[Ajedrez]

she is such an arse.

She is!! A total arse.

I just went to rescue my bin from the wind in preference to hearing her caterwauling but returned to have my eyes pop out at her sprayed on dress - how on earth did it stay up??

[Ajedrez]

Ah I've just noticed the straps, I did wonder how exactly it was defying gravity so well :lol:

Ah good spot Gem!

[Ajedrez]

Someone should tell ee-og-han that the earrings are tragic.

[Muppetgal]

might have been an odd week for Eoghan (song choice wise) but actually I think it's the best he's ever sang!

[Gemiloch]

Someone should tell ee-og-han that the earrings are tragic.

:lol: combined with his scary helmet head hairdo I actually shudder a bit when I look at him!

[Ajedrez]

might have been an odd week for Eoghan (song choice wise) but actually I think it's the best he's ever sang!

We have different ear receptors - I heard blablabla bland YAWN.

Gem - he looks like an ewok in earrings.

[Gemiloch]

Gem - he looks like an ewok in earrings.


Headrest that actually made me snort my tea :lol: :bow:

I am captivated by this girls eyebrows though, they are astonishing!

[Muppetgal]

they seem to make Ruth's cleavage bigger every week!!!

And jeepers did she pick a HARD song, unfortunately too big for her, I think this will cost her votes.

[Gemiloch]

they seem to make Ruth's cleavage bigger every week!!!

it's to distract from her eyebrows I tell you!

[Bettie May]

Oof I thought Ruth was awful

[Ajedrez]

Ruth is 100% sexy - I was at my friends house this afternoon and her FIL was there and during an X Factor discussion (yeah I know, how sad:lol: ) he went "I like RUTH!" and I could practically see him rubbing his legs Vic Reeves style and drooling. She is definitely a man's woman! Twit twoo.

Didn't like her song though.

[Gemiloch]

She is hot, I have to agree with Cheryl (and headrest) :kiss2:

Song didn't really do anything for me though :shrug:

[Rosebud]

She is hot, I have to agree with Cheryl (and headrest) :kiss2:

Song didn't really do anything for me though :shrug:
I completely agree :nod: I find her very bland really

[Gemiloch]

What is with the frosted pink lipstick???

Me no understand!

[Muppetgal]

Shows how much I know of Mariah Carey, I have NO memory of her recording Endless Love!!



and here we go with THE SHOUTING FOR THE REST OF THE SONG!!! That is the one thing that really turns me off Laura.

[Ajedrez]

Shows how much I know of Mariah Carey, I have NO memory of her recording Endless Love!!



Me either:puzzled:

p.s. I am now on the wine so I shall probably be really cruel from hereonin so apologies in advance:twisted:

[1980babe]

Shows how much I know of Mariah Carey, I have NO memory of her recording Endless Love!!

She did it with Luther :wink:

[donna-j]

What have they dressed Laura in this week? They need to sort out her clothes.

ETA: Simon is always right :nod:

[Muppetgal]

argh, okay I know Mariah did this but come on it's a PHIL COLLINS song!!

and she's butchering it. OMG the whole thing is slightly out of tune!

[Gemiloch]

oh I don't like this song either :no: she's making my ears hurt :-(

[Ajedrez]

argh, okay I know Mariah did this but come on it's a PHIL COLLINS song!!

Exactly what I was going to say!

I am getting into this far more than I thought I would:lol: Rachel is MURDERING this song and it was already pretty dead in the water. :zombie:

[Sparkly]

Rachel sucks tonight. Actually the whole show is boring me tonight! :meh:

[Muppetgal]

well thank goodness that is over. My ears are sore now.

[choccy eating monster]

l like Ruth (the spanish one?). She is gorgeous and I could see all blokes liking her. I love her singing. I didn't like Rachel's singing tbh. I didn't like Ewock boy either, too bland, needs shorter hair.

[donna-j]

Yup, I thought it was dreadful.

[Gemiloch]

What's going on with Dannii's right nostril?? Does it always look like that? And is she deaf? A great performance?

[Ajedrez]

On a shallower note, I like Rachel's hair.

[Franjay]

Why are they being so nice to Rachel - she was awful!

[Ajedrez]

What's going on with Dannii's right nostril?? Does it always look like that?

Hmm it does look a bit tweaked.

[Amaryllis]

Watching it 5 mins behind (did a speedy bedtime!!) but OMG Rachel, SHOCKING!!

[Muppetgal]

hope this doesn't set a precident! Diana wouldn't have done well with a Mariah Carey song...wonder what she would have done??

[Gemiloch]

awww wee Diana, what a wee scone. I'm glad they're not letting her sing though, her voice sounded fecked in that vt.

[Ajedrez]

I don't think it's a big deal there's NO WAY she would have been binned tonight even if she'd been hanging upside down and screaming Metallica songs. She's in it for the long run - would have been a bit more suspect if it had been Daniel:lol:

[Ajedrez]

Oh for christ's sake, there must be some upbeat Mariah songs!!!

Does anyone else want to vomit with cringiness when the footage of JLS all putting their feet behind their legs comes on? CHEESE!

[Muppetgal]

ah I guess so, it will probably be Rachel to go home.

Apparently Chris Moyles on Radio 1 is rallying for everyone to vote for Daniel (probably as a joke I guess??) so I won't be surprised if he's not in the bottom two!

I'm loving JLS more and more every week. I would really really like them to win actually!

[Ajedrez]

Louis is a total bitch

(Girls Aloud wee all over Westlife!)

[Gemiloch]

I was making my dinner so didn' t see JLS.

I'm quite sure Cheryl doesn't have flu though, maybe a wee cold but if she actually had flu she'd be tucked up in her bed :rolleyes: (oooh I've lost my rolleyes cherry :grin:)

[1980babe]

Oh for christ's sake, there must be some upbeat Mariah songs!!!!
Couldnt agree more

[Ajedrez]

I was making my dinner so didn' t see JLS.


Feel lucky!:teehee:

[Gemiloch]

After your comments I do :nod:

[durhamlass]

I don't think it's a big deal there's NO WAY she would have been binned tonight even if she'd been hanging upside down and screaming Metallica songs.

PMSL

[Muppetgal]

RE JLS :
oh I so don't agree girls (and neither does my mum)

we both thought they were really good!

[Poppopity]

Daniel is so going to sing "without you"

[Ajedrez]

OOH Daniel now - should be interesting (or more to the point, not). I think it's really funny about the Chris Moyles thing! He's so not going tonight then!

[Ajedrez]

Daniel is so going to sing "without you"

Yep it was the words "key change" that gave it away!:lol:

[Muppetgal]

another friggin remake! This is Journey!

[Gemiloch]

I remember seeing his audition and thinking he was lovely but I'm not quite sure how he got into the live shows?

[Ajedrez]

Yawn I am pinning my hopes on Alexandra singing Heartbreaker to make me watching this worthwhile!!

[Poppopity]

Yep it was the words "key change" that gave it away!:lol:

I was thinking more that it goes along with his sob story.

Maybe not though :shock:

[Rosebud]

I find him a bit bleugh tbh :no:

[Muppetgal]

oooh, that was the most backhanded comment ever by Louis! :lol:

My mum said he is quite a pub singer, which is what Simon says about him most weeks!

[Gemiloch]

I didn't recognise that song either? In fact I've completely forgotten it already. Dullsville

[Muppetgal]

Open Arms by Journey, which is one of my all time favourite songs. It's from the 80's I think!

[Ajedrez]

Oh FFS - poke off Alexandra!!

Everyone listen to this instead:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=4Mb3rdWUmbo

Much better!

[Muppetgal]

hahah Without YOU!!

seriously, does Mariah Carey ever do her OWN music. It's funny that on Mariah week they have mostly chosen songs that were remakes in the first place!

:lol:

[Poppopity]

Rachel sucks tonight. Actually the whole show is boring me tonight! :meh:

I can't stand Rachel, she's a vile chavvy attitude-ladden wannabe diva.

They're only keeping in her in the show becuase they're too scared of her outburst when she gets kicked out.

[Ajedrez]

Or even this:

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=e7iyjsLlsyk&feature=related

[Gemiloch]

Open Arms by Journey, which is one of my all time favourite songs. It's from the 80's I think!

Thanks MG :thumb:

[sunshine]

I have three words to say about this weeks show...

BARF IT MINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!


What a pile of steaming shite.

Oh and stop gushing Alexandra, you are making me feel quite sick:pants:

[Ajedrez]

I have three words to say about this weeks show...

BARF IT MINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!



:clap:

eta: but I have enjoyed assassinating them all on here!

[Gemiloch]

I have three words to say about this weeks show...

BARF IT MINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!


What a pile of steaming shite.

Oh and stop gushing Alexandra, you are making me feel quite sick:pants:

:agree: :lol: :bow:

[Poppopity]

Oh and stop gushing Alexandra, you are making me feel quite sick:pants:

I agree ! WTF was that all about.

Chezza "Little Miss Showbiz" (:bow: Louis for that one) Cole is getting on my nerves as well. I'm not falling for her reinvention as the nation's sweetheart - she's a nasty piece of work.

[Muppetgal]

well that was a crap show!

Ruth and Rachel are my bottom two based on singing (even though I'm fond of Ruth)

Rachel to go! It was HORRIFIC!

[Minky]

OK, I just tried to rewind it to see what the judges said about (not sure of her name, the black girl who "sacked" Dannii - is it Rachel?) anyway, the girl who was SO fecking flat I could hear it when cooking dinner :yeahright: but Mr Minky had bloody changed the channel and I can't get back that far :hissyfit:

So what did they say? Can someone tell me pretty please?

Cos I thought she SUCKED and even Daniel was better than she was :nod:.

There are some singers with powerful voices there. But others, like Daniel and the boy group, are pretty average imho....

Minky x

[calgal]

I think Rachel & Ruth might be in the bottom two :scratchchin:

Really didn't enjoy this week :no:

That little guy in JLS really loves himself :yeahright:

How cute Eoghan has a little sister :lurve: , i was dying to hear her name but they didn't mention it, did they?

All the girls had their cleavage on show tonight!

[*kate*]

Utter crap tonight.

Rachel and :scratchchin: Ruth in the bottom two tonight. Or Rachel and Eoghan (but I think he'll get the sympathy vote for having a baby this week).

[Franjay]

Does anyone else think Mariah Carey looks weeeeird (she's on xtra factor right now)? Me thinks she has had a fair bit of work done.

[Aurora]

Boring week for me :rolleyes:
I missed Diana's performance so much :cry: - I hope she gets better for next week.

Alexandra was fantastic. She is growing on me week by week as I think her personality is great.

Eu-og-han was better than I expected this week. I enjoyed JLS's performance (I am glad that they didn't wear the red, green, yellow & blue tripe outfits.)

All the others were somewhere between ok and bad. Laura was just not up to scratch and Simon has a very valid point about her style, she is 21 years old FFS! What was she wearing tonight!

[Minky]

PLLLLLEEEEEESE someone tell me what the judges had to say!

I am on the edge of my seat! :laff:

[Ajedrez]

PLLLLLEEEEEESE someone tell me what the judges had to say!

I am on the edge of my seat! :laff:

I think they told her she was AMAZING (obviously lying like hairy eggs) and that she had an air of sadness about her. Simon said he liked her because he'd met her family and then she cried.

[Minky]

So no one mentioned all the notes she missed then? :shock: :loco: :rolleyes:

Thanks Aj!

[Puffy]

Mariah careys face DOESNT MOVE. wrong so wrong

[SaintSarah]

I think they are too afraid to tell Rachel what they think of her, are they not? She was terrible this evening, totally flat - I really really hope she goes, although fear how she will react!!!

[Aurora]

I didn't notice her face not moving but I have to say I loved her gold dress :nod: It was so slimming and just looked wowzers.

Bit of a joke that the contestants were singing with her though....they weren't really were they?? They came out 10 secs before the end and they didn't even have microphones :teehee:

[Minky]

Totally agree with the above two posts. Mariah Carey has turned into a fembot :nod: and who knows what might happen if the judges told Rachel her vocal was rubbish?

:shock:

And was it just me and Mr M, or was Mariah only in second gear with that song - how disappointing was that! :nod:

[lafleur]

Did anyone pick up on when Simon was talking to Alexandra he said that he "really liked how she was enjoying the experience and never complained, and why would anyone complain when they're getting to do this?" Was it a sneaky little dig at one of the other contestants? If so, who?

Oh, and Rachel needs to go this week in my humble opinion! She's plop!

[Chocolate Lips]

Haven't read all the thread yet but when Mariah started singing Hero, OH piped up "she's got Diana's hand" :lol:

[Puffy]

I thiught that lafleur- possibly rachel and her foul atttitude?? Although he seemed to be really arsekissig her this week :scratchchin:

[Minky]

RACHEL HAS BEEN VOTED IN

:faint:

Which just seems to prove to me the great British Public is tone deaf.

:yeahright:

[SaintSarah]

Oh my goodness, how is Laura in the bottom 2 and Rachel through :shock:

[One Sock]

RACHEL HAS BEEN VOTED IN

:faint:

Which just seems to prove to me the great British Public is tone deaf.

:yeahright:

My thoughts exactly.

Lovely as Daniel may be, how is he still in and Laura in the bottom two?

[Chocolate Lips]

Yep but didn't Lewpy go last year to the studios and though we had sat here saying "it was shite" she said it sounded wayyyyy different in the studio - so perhaps what we hear just isn't what it sounds like to them :shrug: It can be the only explanation in some cases :lol:

[One Sock]

Mariah careys face DOESNT MOVE. wrong so wrong

Quite terrifying isn't it?

I've been shouting 'make your face move' at the TV all night.

[*kate*]

Laura's in. That's fab.

[Minky]

Eh? Are you ahead of us oop north then Kate?

She's still singing dawn sarf. But much better than Ruth though, so I agree, she is in. Or she ought to be!

Minky x

[SaintSarah]

I really hope they save Laura

[ticklepickle]

Agree - I can't believe Daniel is still in - and Rachel too - but these two are in the bottom 2?! Travesty...

[*kate*]

Eh? Are you ahead of us oop north then Kate?

She's still singing dawn sarf. But much better than Ruth though, so I agree, she is in. Or she ought to be!

Minky xYeah I posted in the middle of the song, it was just my opinion :smile:

[SaintSarah]

:shock: I truly cant believe it

[One Sock]

This is mental.

[Julesb]

Freaking joke!

[ticklepickle]

OH MY GOD. Travesty. Makes a joke of these shows really that people like Daniel are still in. Gutted for Laura...

['Line]

OOooh Cheryl isn't a very good loser is she :no:

['Line]

OOooh Cheryl isn't a very good loser is she :no:

[One Sock]

OOooh Cheryl isn't a very good loser is she :no:

I don't blame her.

[*kate*]

What a shame :sad:

[knotjustjigs]

Absolute bloody madness .....I am in shock, Laura should not have gone! Daniel or Racheal imho

Ketty x

[Woodstock]

You know I was recording the results on sky+ to watch tomorrow morning and couldnt resist a sneak on this thread

and

OMG :no:

It was obviously done to make sure Cheryl doesnt dominate, but it shouldnt be about the judges. Makes the whole show pointless if Laura is out and people like Rachel and Daniel are in. Pointless.

[Muppetgal]

flabbergasted but only that Rachel is through, I knew Ruth's performance in the show wasn't up to scruff and truly felt Daniel did better than both RUth and Rachel.

I agree with Louis, Ruth has more "fight" in her...I'm surprised he didn't just go to deadlock though now.

I can see the headlines for tomorrow already.

Cheryl quits X-factor after snubbing by Louis!

[lafleur]

I don't know - Ruth may have more 'fight' in her, but since when was X-factor about finding the "fightiest" person? Laura is a better singer and has the potential to become a fairly credible recording artist, I think.

What a shame she went.

[Chocolate Lips]

I feel very sad, the wrong person went. I think if it had gone to deadlock Ruth would've gone as I'd bet she had the lowest public vote. I can't see her getting to the final.

But to be fair neither of them should have been in the final :shrug: I wonder if there's an element of the public not voting for the better singers/popular ones because they feel that they are safe.

[ticklepickle]

Louis is such a drama queen and so insincere, I can't bloody bear him. That's beside the point in view of tonight's result but even so... RAAAAAR!!!

[Gemiloch]

While I wasn't that keen on either Laura or Ruth tonight I thought they were both way better than Rachel! How the hell did she escape being in the bottom two? She was beyond shite :no:

[Woodstock]

There really should be voting like Big Brother where you vote for the worst person until the final show. That way you could make sure you get the worst singer off rather just hoping others agree with you in comparison to all the other singers.

But I guess they get more money this way (if you vote at all of course). :wink:

[*kate*]

Watching Xtra Factor now, and they've just shown a bit where the contestants went to a Bonfire and they were all cheering as the fireworks went off etc.

Diana was there, yelling like a good 'un. Maybe being out in the cold night air brought on her laryingitis? :yeahright:

[Aurora]

Diana was there, yelling like a good 'un. Maybe being out in the cold night air brought on her laryingitis? :yeahright:

I just thought the exact same thing...she didn't even have a scarf on so I bet her poor neck and throat got the chills. I wonder when she got poorly then :scratchchin:

[Gemiloch]

Great minds kate and Aurora! I was so about to post the same thing :nod:

I thought they said that she had been poorly all week but she was out and about and screeching her wee head of on Wednesday? If she already had laryngitis she should have been on complete voice rest :yeahright:

[*kate*]

I just thought the exact same thing...she didn't even have a scarf on so I bet her poor neck and throat got the chills. I wonder when she got poorly then :scratchchin:Or when she got cold feet........I've gone off Diana a bit now.

[Miss Frosty]

I missed it tonight but am I right in thinking that Laura went out :shock:

[flipflop]

Just caught up on it all on V+.
OMG, how could Laura have gone :faint: , she was one of the best singers, just as Austin was (imo!).
Louis is a weasel - he's only got JLS so is clearly voting off any proper opposition, I bet he's hoping for a JLS/Daniel final :lol:.

I :lurve: Alexandra, she's fabby. Disappointed that Diana didn't sing tonight, otherwise I thought they were all very average, apart from Rachel who was awful. She is quite terrifyingly aggessive.

[judygg]

OMG she was totally robbed - you could see Cheryl was genuinely shocked, reckon she thought when it got to the last three that hers would be safe cos Daniel was the most likely to have gone.
It really annoys me that she has gone when others like Daniel or Rachel have gone through but lets face it won't win it anyway. What a waste.

[Helski]

Am really gutted that Laura went. I LOVED her.

Thought the sing off was great from both girls, such a shame they were in the bottom 2 but poor Ruth doesn't have a hometown campaigning for her does she so I guess will never do great in the public vote.

Rachel was shoite tonight.

Daniel is good cabaret at best.

Eoghan is growing on me.

I HATED Mariah Carey night tho - bit of a yawn fest for me. Hoping for a better choice next week.

[CutieMcpretty]

Simon Cowell has really annoyed me how can he be a talent mogul and save RUTH....is the man deaf???

Louis is a dope and doing my head in.

I agree Daniel should of been there with Ruth.

I am so shocked its not funny, gonna watch the xtra factor in the morning to see what the judges have to say...

Diana, another drama...

Mariah Carey is she wooden?

[lazybones]

omg why the hell did laura go??

ive not seen the full night but wtf:faint:

[lazybones]

omg why the hell did laura go??

ive not seen the full night but wtf:faint:

[Muppetgal]

I don't know - Ruth may have more 'fight' in her, but since when was X-factor about finding the "fightiest" person? Laura is a better singer and has the potential to become a fairly credible recording artist, I think.

What a shame she went.


I disagree, I think Ruth is the better singer. Laura has a strange voice and I wouldn't buy her records.

[Ajedrez]

I've just come on to find out who got binned and I am flabbergasted - Laura!? What a joke. But, I do think that she will be fine, someone will snap her up.

The judging seems to be based on the whims of the judges i.e. "oh lets get rid of Laura so that Cheryl doesn't get too big for her boots".

I thought Ruth was rubbish last night although she did look amazing but it's not a beauty contest.

[tigger71]

Am late to this thread.....just don't get me started on the result!!!!!!!!!!:hissyfit: Way to go guys, get rid of one of the finalists who can actually sing! Can't wait to see what they do next week.

Bet Daniel wins now......:grin:

xx

[Annie Goolahey]

I don't think the voting is to keep Cheryl in her place.
I think it was simply tactics from Simon and Louis who know they would be fecked if either of their acts was in a sing off with Laura.
It was a wise decision from the side of the judges backing their own acts but a travesty for the idea it is a fair and real talent show.

(That said, and I know he's local) but I really did feel Eoghan did well last night.)

[Lovebug]

I don't think Ruth and Laura should have been in the bottom 2 but out of their songs that they did to stay in comp Ruth was miles better , laura has such an individual voice that it does not lend itself well to many songs and I think sometimes when she sings she sounds strained when trying to reach ceratin notes also I think she looks like a perma tanned man in drag most of the time.

[Woodstock]

Bet Daniel wins now......:grin:

xx

The way its going I wouldnt be at all surprised :loco:

[Flora Poste]

Just watched this on sky+ and I 'm so shocked. Who the hell is voting for Daniel and Rachael - they were both godawful tonight - especially Rachael.

And Ruth should so have gone in the sing off.

[Elle Driver]

I agree Flora. I'm absolutely disgusted that Laura went and that Daniel stayed in (wasn't even in the bottom two, i mean). Shocking :no:

I agree with you too Annie, the Louis and Simon booted off Laura as she would be too strong a competition in later shows, should it come to sing offs etc.

I feel like boycotting it now :lol: :loco: I am honestly GUTTED Laura went :cry:

[Elle Driver]

I've just come on to find out who got binned and I am flabbergasted - Laura!? What a joke. But, I do think that she will be fine, someone will snap her up.

This is what I've been trying to console myself with :lol: :oops: I want her to get a recording deal. I would love to buy her albums! :-(

'Line - I dont think Cheryl Cole was a bad loser as such. She didn't rant or rave - she just looked totally gobsmacked and I bet she felt complete disbelief at the unjustness of Laura going. I know I was sat there like this >>>>>>>>>>> :shock: :cry: :no: :shock: when the judges made their decisions.

I'll say it again - I am disgusted!!!!

[One Sock]

I am honestly GUTTED Laura went :cry:

Me too. Am a bit :oops: to admit it was one of the first things I thought about when I woke up this morning

Note to self - must get a life.

[Aurora]

I am just reading The News of the World online :oops: and Paul McNamara has written an article on last nights show with his take on all the acts.

I know it is a little :meh: but I totally agree with what he said on Daniel.


Why even bother singing? He should just come out to a disappointed audience, look straight into the camera and shout, ‘MY WIFE’S DEAD’.

I am still gutted that Laura has gone.

[Katiekipper]

The whole 'keeping Daniel in and making him an internet pet charity case' is getting incredibly BORING. Someone as amazing as Laura leaving really brings it home.
I thought Ruth sang worse so assumed that Louis is particular booted off Laura to give JLS a better chance. Simon probably kept Ruth in so he could have a better chance at pulling her (if he's not already done so)
I hope Laura leaving causes a backlash against voting for Daniel tbh.

[ChelseaHarvey]

I watched this lastnight & was another one that wa shocked that those 2 were the bottom 2. Def not right & Daniel should have def been one of those in the bottom 2.

How fab was Mirah though & wow look at her now she is so tiny as well. I love her, & she has such a fab voice, Loving her new song out as well, 1 def for the old ipod
