queen week - The X Factor

ellenpagerocks · 09-11-2009, 13:05

That's the rumor i'm hearing for next week's theme would tie in with the release of the greatest hits album next Monday

Faria262 · 09-11-2009, 13:16

Just got Bo Rhap on Bliss music channel - could be the group song if Queen week happens. I enjoyed it in AI5

Glorfindel · 09-11-2009, 13:18

Well, that could be...a bit special!

newwoman · 09-11-2009, 13:19

Oh God no. My worst band of all time. I'd have to give that week a miss.

mitacond · 09-11-2009, 13:20

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh one of my fav., artist Freddy Mercury and Queen.

Will Brian May attend????

kitten12 · 09-11-2009, 13:22

Sounds like a stitch up for J&E then - clearly "We Will Rock You". Elminates the need for singing again.

Honolulula · 09-11-2009, 13:22

I am nearly wetting myself in anticipation of J&E's rendition of "I Want to Break Free" if this is true. Or I guess they could do "Fat Bottomed Girls" or "Bicycle Race", oh wow the possibilities are endless!

Also it would be interesting to see who would get Bohemian Rhapsody because if someone does get it it would serve as some degree of confirmation that they are the 'chosen one'.

Ceza · 09-11-2009, 13:23

Hmmm, I doubt it. They've already had rock week, I doubt they'd have two rock weeks

They've already done that one - i'd have thought they'd go for 'I want to break free'.

I agree but who could reach those high notes? if they had to without changing the song too much

Danyl and maybe Jamie ?

Joe could, but may fall down on the low notes.

Lloyd , Olly or Stacey???? oh no

Twins 100% no

Faria262 · 09-11-2009, 13:31

Kellie Pickler, who was my favourite but only finished 6th, sang Bo Rhap during AI5 - but on AI, I think they pick the songs themselves.

J&E probably would sing WWRY again - after all, they reprised Rock DJ last night!

It would be a tricky week - I seem to remember 'Somebody to love' even proving tough for Rhydian.

I am very, very amused by the thought of Lloyd trying to hit those notes though!

How does Queen week fit in with this year's buzz word, 'relevant'?

Lloyd singing a contemporary R&B version of "We are the Champions", obviously.

So anyone who has different taste to you deserves to have this

do they?

I can not stand Queen. I'm sure you probably don't like artists I like. It's all about personal taste.

Are you serious?

You proberbly think JLS are better then.

Queen are one of the biggest music legends.

Oh yes because I don't agree with you I must be a teenage boyband lover. I'm actually 40 years old and have a pretty wide range of tastes and Queen have always been a band I've found irritating to the extreme. I could not name a single one of their songs that I've ever liked.

What is it with Queen fans? Whenever anyone says they don't like them they get attacked. I've seen it on here on several occasions.

I don't like Elvis either. Is that ok by everyone?

bantams250669 · 09-11-2009, 13:55

so, the X Factor, not content with murdering rock classics such as Sweet Child of Mine, I don't Want to Miss a Thing, We Will Rock You, want to go and murder the songs of one of the most successful british bands ever?

they should leave well alone and stick to the songs that have none of the qualities to become a true classic - they can murder them all day long for all I care.

Coming up next Saturday - Nickelback week!

what all remaining contestants have a choice of 2 songs to sing?

so we get repeated songs in the same show?

fine by me - always thought Nickelback were overrated.

Honolulula · 09-11-2009, 14:01

My point was that it's impossible to murder a Nickelback song because it's already been murdered... by Nickelback.

BatmanLaBatman · 09-11-2009, 14:01

I love Queen but Queen week was rumoured months ago.

What would be the "unique" challenge that Dermot mentioned then?

They've got to write their own material and perform it to prove they have true potential.

mashamoto79 · 09-11-2009, 14:13

Queen isn't just rock. I would love a Queen week but I think there could be some obscure choices for the less vocally challenged contestants.

I would love Danyl to try 'The show must go on'.

Twins would probably do I want to break free

Jamie would go for a real rocker, maybe fat bottom girls

Olly will end up with something like somebody to love

Stacey would have to be a slower number, maybe who wants to live forever.

Joe could do you're my best friend.

Lloyd, erm...I just haven't a clue what he could do but if the bad theme choices for him keep going that maybe he could do Bohemian Rhapsody.
