X Factor Week 8 Live Show Poem

Elton John/Take That Week



It's the 28th of November and I started to watch the X Factor late
As I'd been out doing my shopping, instead sitting at home for week 8.
Luckily, it is the week, that the show goes on and on;
I tuned in just as all five contestants has finished singing their first songs.

The details of the contestants song choices can now be found below
And so, without any further ado, let's get back to the show.
Lloyd was the first to sing his second piece; "I'm still standing" by Elton John
Followed swiftly by Danyl's rendition of the classic anthem, "Your Song".

At this point I should mention, and I have tried to resist,
We're lacking a little something; John and Edward are sadly missed!
I never thought I'd say that, but the time has actually come;
Own up, who elses agrees that the X Factor is lacking a little fun?

Anyway, the ad breaks are over, and back to the stage for our delight
Is the cheeky little Olly Murs with "Saturday Night's Alright".
Simon was very complimentary and the audience were chanting his name.
He really did come out fighting and he'll definitely survive to sing again!

Next Joe McElderry performed for us, a song that we have already heard.
He sang it at Cheryl's judges' home; Elton's "Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word".
Louis said that he was born for this and in a rare moment all the judges came together;
They all agreed it was sensational and Simon said that it was his best song EVER!

The pride of Dagenham got to close the show with the stage lights burning bright,
She started sat on a Baby Grand, singing "Something About The Way You Look Tonight."
Simon was worried that all her songs sound the same and I wasn't overly impressed
So, we'll see if she makes it through tonight, as she is the only girl left.

But I love it when Dermot interviews her, as she sounds so dippy and sweet
And with that, the phone lines open for us to vote for our favourite this week.
Please feel free to comment, perhaps with who you think will have to go
And for now I'll say adieu to you, and see you again on Sunday for the results show.

Wedding Card Poems by I Want A Poem

Are you looking for a poem to go inside a Wedding Card? Have you been searching for the exact message you want to send and not finding anything that covers all you want to say? Do you need a Wedding Poem for a friend or family member?

Then look no further. Simply visit http://www.iwantapoem.co.uk and give a few details about your intended recipient(s) and Amy will write you a beautiful personalised wedding card poem.

This can be a wedding card for a Bride or Groom, to the Bride and Groom, for the Mother of the Bride/Groom, for the Father of The Groom/Bride or for any other member of the Bridal Party; Bridesmaids, Ushers etc.

A Wedding Card Poem is the perfect choice where only the best words will do!

You can decide the tone of your wedding poem. Maybe you are a Best Man, and you want to give the newlyweds a nice message but still want to put accross your cheeky persona; after all, that's why they love you, and that's why they asked you to do them the honour of being Best Man.
A humourous or funny wedding poem will let you do both.

Or perhaps you are going to the Wedding of one of your friends. As it is customary these days to request money as a gift, the giver can sometimes feel like they still want to give something a little more personal. A personalised wedding poem written beautifully in a card, along with the money gift, will let the Bride and Groom know that have still put some thought into their Wedding Gift, whilst still fulfilling the origianl brief.

Or maybe you are the Groom and you would like to surprise your Wife to be with a sentimental wedding poem on the morning of your wedding. You might not have seen your Bride since the day before, and you could perhaps arrange for one of the Bridesmaids or the Bride's Mother or Father to give her the card before she sets off to meet you at the wedding venue.
It's the little touches that mean the most.

Whatever you want from your wedding poem, Amy from I Want A Poem will work hard to ensure that your personalised creation conveys the message you want!

The Owl And The Pussycat

T
he Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
    In a beautiful pea green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
    Wrapped up in a five pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
    And sang to a small guitar,
'O lovely Pussy! O Pussy my love,
      What a beautiful Pussy you are,
          You are,
          You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!'

Pussy said to the Owl, 'You elegant fowl!
    How charmingly sweet you sing!
O let us be married! too long we have tarried:
    But what shall we do for a ring?'
They sailed away, for a year and a day,
    To the land where the Bong-tree grows
And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood
    With a ring at the end of his nose,
          His nose,
          His nose,
With a ring at the end of his nose.

'Dear pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling
    Your ring?' Said the Piggy, 'I will.'
So they took it away, and were married next day
    By the Turkey who lives on the hill.
They dined on mince, and slices of quince,
    Which they ate with a runcible spoon;
And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,
    They danced by the light of the moon,
          The moon,
          The moon,
They danced by the light of the moon.

The Owl and The Pussycat was written by Edward Lear.

It is a traditional poem that most of us grew up with! It also makes a beautiful Wedding Reading or Naming Ceremony Poem.

A Wedding Gift Poem is the modern alternative to the traditional gift list.

With a credit crunch in full force, there has never been a better time to decide that the Wedding Gifts you receive should be useful and give great value for money to whoever is gifting you.
Also, because people are living together before they get married, a lot of the household gifts you would traditionally buy for a Wedding will have been bought long ago. And who want four toasters?

So although it was frowned upon many years ago, nowadays, Brides and Grooms are asking for cash gifts.
This can be used in many more useful ways which you can of course include in your Wedding Gift Poem. Say for example, you really needed a new bathroom installing; Ask for money to put towards it.
Guests truly would rather their gift was appreciated! And this way, everyone is happy.

So if you are struggling to compose your own Wedding Gift Poem, then why not leave it to Amy at www.iwantapoem.co.uk.
View Article  X Factor Live Shows WEEK 7 Results Show
Sunday Night means a new X Factor Results show
With performances from Mariah and the world class SuBo.
I really can't call who'll be going tonight
But perhaps at last the public might get it right.

Who will now fade into oblivion and who will we remember
As we find out the X Factor Results on the 22nd of November.
Stacey is the first act to go through to next week
Followed by Joe, our tasty North-Eastern treat.

The third act returning, is Danyl the Diva
Followed by Lloyd! So will Olly or Jedward be the leaver?
Could this be the moment that the X Factor is waiting for?
Is it time for the Grimes Twins to head out of the door?

John and Edward took the first "singing for survival" spot
And perhaps aptly sang lyrics saying "I can't be what I'm not".
They looked rather dejected; Perhaps they sense it's their time.
But who's to say other peoples opinions mirror those of mine.

Olly took to the stage, with a beautiful sounding track
Before, over to the judges, we are swiftly handed back.
Simon and Cheryl voted to saved Olly
Louis voted Jedward, and he wasn't sorry.

Danni asked the audience before she made her choice
She asked if it was a singing competition, to be judged on voice.
At last John and Edward are out of the show
And onto the talent competition the last 5 acts can go!

It's been a blast for them, and I'm sure a career begins
As a televisual presence beckons for the country's most well known Twins.
So our thoughts should be with Jedward as the two of them commiserate
And with Louis out of the X Factor, it's onwards to week 8!

Another Sunday Evening, who will sing for the right to survive;
The one remaining girl or group, or one of Simon's over 25's?
Perhaps one of the boys from Cheryl Cole's team?
For one of the acts, here end the X Factor Dream.

All of the contestants showed us how good as a group they can be
Giving us a great rendition of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.
Then a performance from Shakira and the X Factor Charity Song too
And finally we get to find out, who'd in the bottom two.

Delicious Dermot then announces the acts who go through;
Joe McElderry followed by Danyl, and then Stacey!(oh phew)
The fourth act to be chosen was Olly and he had much glee
And the final act returning are the Twins and Louis.

That leaves Lloyd and Jamie to sing for the crowd.
They both want to go through, but only one is allowed.
At this point, I can't call who will be leaving the X Factor tonight;
I won't even bother guessing, as I never get it right!

So the act that managed, the chop, to avoid
Rather surprisingly was lovely little Lloyd.
So on towards next weeks X Factor Live Show
And sadly we say goodbye to Jamie the Afro.

X Factor Live Shows WEEK 6 - Phone Numbers At The Bottom Of This Page

The next stop on this journey towards the X Factor Dream
Is a fab Saturday Night programme, dedicated to Queen.
Just seven acts remaining and there's everything to win
And so, without any further ado, let the show begin!

Before we get down to the talent, we have something  of shock
As Simon Cowell delicately explains, why last week he went to deadlock.
He said that he trusted the public and he knew we would make the right call
Ultimately, he talked his way out of it and ultimately, he can't please us all.

First on the stage is Jamie Archer, with Radio GaGa as his song;
A fabulous Queen rock anthem, but Louis said that it was all wrong.
Cheryl commented on his Afro but said he kicked the show off well;
Will he sail through again this week? Only time will tell.

Next a Little Thing Called Love, or should that be a boy called Lloyd
His cuteness and his cheeky charm are things you can't avoid.
The audience were screaming and he seemed to have a blast;
Lloyd Daniels from Team Cheryl has come into his own at last.

Olly Murs then told us all not to stop him now.
He is the best performer and that really was a WOW!
He was likened to Robbie Williams after he well executed his plans
Even managing to entertain us all with a bit of a dodgy hand!

Back to Team Cheryl as we get on with the show
Somebody To Love is performed for us, by the lovely little Joe.
Cheryl said of his vocal rollercoaster, that he sang it to a T;
Simon said he'd be safe this week and I think that I'd agree.

After the deadlock last week, this act caused a lot rage
They showed they were Under Pressure as Jedward fell onto stage.
It was fairly entertaining, I think you will agree....well maybe
But only because they mixed it up with a hint of Ice Ice Baby!

Stacey Solomon then performed, singing Who Wants To Live Forever;
Far removed from her ditzy self, she really held it together.
Each note that emerged from inside her was crisp and clear and bright
And Simon Cowell even said it was the best performance of the night.

We Are The Champions is the last song of the show
With the fabulous Danyl Johnson getting into the Queen Week flow.
Danni Minogue said that this had been his best performance yet
And even Louis and Simon gave him the nicest feedback he could get.

So which acts should stay and which acts should now end
Get on the phones, as on your votes, the results depends.
Who do you want to see return to the X Factor Stage?
The phone numbers needed for voting are at the bottom of this page.

View Article  Birthday Poems
A birthday poem is a unique way of sending birthday wishes and messages to your loved ones. Most greetings cards these days include a short rhyme or verse, which is great, but you can spend ages finding a card that gives an appropriate message. So to solve this problem, why not go one step further and give your friends and family a personalised poem instead. You can either print it out or write it into a blank card; Sometimes the personal touch is the best way to go.

Alternatively, you can use a birthday poem as a chance to tell your recipient's life story. This works particularly well for "milestone birthdays":18th Birthday, 21st Birthday, 30th Birthday, 40th Birthday, 50th Birthday, 60th birthday, 70th Birthday, 80th Birthday, 90th Birthday and the Big 100th Birthday!
Your birthday poem can be witty, cheeky, loving or humourous and you can also weave in any other message.

If you are looking are for that perfect birthday poem, why not have your very own personalised poem written by Amy at http://www.iwantapoem.co.uk and give the special people in your life a unique and personal gift to cherish for a lifetime.


View Article  Poem For Remembrance Day (Veterans Day)
Two minutes of silence
Amidst a sea of red.
We proudly wear our poppies
As we remember the dead.

The soldiers who fought for us
So that we could be free.
And the civilians who lost their lives;
Caught up in the hostility.

The cessation of those war torn times
Is an event we should always remember
And so the world unites as one
On the 11th Day of November.

For the honour of our Armed Forces
And the terrible situations they face
Each time we think of our Heroes
It should be with a smile on our face.

You were my very  first Twitter friend,
Dearest DisneyBrideChar
And whilst you planned your wedding
I twittered from afar.

Time has passed so quickly
And now you have said "I do"
It's been an honour and a privilege
To share this time with you.

A Beautiful Cinderella Coach
Took you to meet your Groom.
I can't believe that you're married already
As it seems to have come round so soon.

You then got married al fresco
Surrounded by beautiful roses
And it made for gorgeous pictures
Of you in your Bridal poses.

And that is not forgetting
One more truly beautiful thing
When the Royal Footman Ringbearer
Brought you a glass slipper containing your ring.

A truly magical occasion
For a fabulous Disney Bride
And I'm sure all your friends and family
Were looking on with pride.

Exciting times ahead for you
After the happiest day of your life.
I hope that your brand new Husband
Will make you the happiest Wife!

So for being a lovely twitterer
I'd like to say thanks a lot
And may I say Congratulations
Now that you have tied the knot.

Finally let me wish you all the best
For a life filled with love and laughter.
Big Congratulations once again
And here's to your Happy Ever After!

View Article  Poem For Fun - Tea and Toast - My Favourite Meal
This is a poem that I wrote, inspired by just the three words 'my favourite meal'. As any new Mum will testify, after the fabulous meeting of your baby for the first time, you really do need something to eat and drink. I am lucky enough to have four beautiful daughters and after all that effort each time, even simple tea and toast tastes amazing. So without further ado, please find below "My Favourite Meal"!


My Favourite Meal


A round swollen tummy.
An urge from within.
They said that I would know
It was about to begin.

It gripped me so tightly.
Pinned me down to the bed.
It felt so destructive.
I wished I was dead.

I howled, then I whimpered.
Sweat moistened my face.
Oh, how I wished I was
In some other place.

The pain came again
And I called the midwife.
She soon would be with me
As I gave someone life.

A final contraction.
My baby appeared.
The pain that I suffered.
Completely disappeared.

I felt so elated
It was finally complete.
Now all that I needed
Was something to eat.

As I stared at my bundle,
(To whom I'd played host)
The kind Midwife brought me
Some tea and some toast.

Heaven mouthfuls;
The buttery crunch
Made up for the fact
That I'd laboured through lunch.

I'd delivered at tea time
But missed out on my dinner.
Hot tea and buttered toast though
Was definitely a winner.

The simplest of foodstuffs
Tasted out of this world.
I sighed with contentment
Looking at my baby girl.

So, when I eat toast now
It evokes memories so real
And that is why it was
My Favourite Meal.

View Article  Stop All The Clocks - Poem From Four Weddings And A Funeral

W. H. Auden - Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead,
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last for ever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood.
For nothing now can ever come to any good.



Stop All The Clocks is one of my very favourite poems and it was featured in the Best Selling Film "Four Weddings And A Funeral".

It's Sunday Night, the votes have been cast;
Who's performance could have been their last?
None of the finalists want to be in the bottom two
And they relied totally on votes from me and you.

Katy Perry was the inspiration for the opening group song
And everyone looked at home on the stage, just like they belong.
So on the night we get a performance from our own home grown star
Which act will have made it so near, yet so far?

First up this Sunday, was an act that was pleasing to me
Preceding Leona Lewis, was the fabulous B.E.P.
Flying high on wires, yet performing with such ease
Well done to Will I.am and his crew of Black Eyed Peas.

So onto Leona Lewis, a true star without a doubt
And it's great to have her back on the stage where she started out.
She is an inspiration and shows us what real talent means;
Her new song is titled 'Happy' and it personifies so many dreams.

Now for the moment that we have all been waiting for.
Who's X Factor journey, will carry on no more?
The acts acts going through will be glad to have been saved
And the first of those way Joe; To him and Cheryl, well played!

The second act returning is Olly for our Mr Smooth,  Simon
Followed very closely by the delightful Stacey Solomon.
Lloyd also went through, much to Cheryl's delight
And the 5th act through was Danyl, truly making his night.

Only one more spot was guaranteed and that then went to Jamie.
That means Jedward's in the bottom two, do my eyes betray me?
It was the one week I relented and they finally entertained.
So will it be them or Lucie, who, in the contest, remain?

The glamourous Danni Minogue hoped that Lucie would shine
As she returned to the X Factor stage to give us her 'moment in time'.
Louis said Jedward should try and have fun as they gave us Rock DJ;
I wonder if Robbie Williams was singing along or cringing in LA? 

Louis,Dannii  and Cheryl made their choice then the real voting could begin
But Simon said he's let the public decide as neither of the acts could win.
Sadly Lucie lost out, and John and Edward will sing again;
I can't believe this is happening. Each week it seems to be the same.

So congrats to the twins, though in my throat it sticks
And so I'll look forward instead to week 6.
It's a bit of a shocker, though I said weeks ago
That the twins could end up winning! You just never know!

Tonight's X Factor promises to be a little groovy
As all of the contestants sing songs from the Movies.
It's a live show from London, for your pleasure and delight;
Let's get ready to watch The X Factor Movie Night!

Stacey Solomon was the first to step into the breach
And in skintight black leggings she showed us how to preach.
The Son of A Preacher Man went down like a treat
Though Mr Simon Cowell said she might not be safe this week.

He can afford to be smug as none of his acts have gone out!
Olly Murs is his first act this week, singing Twist and Shout.
The audience loved it and were screaming his name
So I definitely think, he will survive to sing again!

Next, following a week where he ended up in the bottom two
Lloyd Daniels performed 'Stand by Me' hoping that he would get through.
But Louis Walsh said that he was out of his depth
And Simon agreed. Has he got any hope left?

Next up Jamie Archer, but his song was little obscure
It was Crying by Roy Orbison, but from which movie, I'm not sure.
Simon defended his song choice and Cheryl said he had done well;
Was it enough to see him through? Only time will tell.

Lucie Jones was next to perform and what treat to see
She took a track from Camp Rock and showed us "This is Me".
Cheryl Cole then commented that Lucie had found her niche at last!
Simon said she was a relevant act! Her dreams have been surpassed!

Simon chose the next track and Danyl took the stage again
To gave us a beautiful performance of Prince's Purple Rain.
Great comments from all the judges after a vocal that was divine
And I think that is was so good that he's surely safe this time.

Next up John and Edward and this week they've had twin mania
And in the words of Peter Andre, it is just a little bit insania!
So back to the performance, and they gave us the Ghostbusters theme.
I think I must be softening as it was the funniest thing I have seen!

It's sad another week is almost over, and here to close the show
Was a great performance of The Circle of Light by the cheeky Geordie Joe.
The audience were rapturous and Dannii said he was simply the best.
I think that this handsome young man, could be headed for success.

So from our fabulous final 8, one act will have to go
And so, miss out performing on the X Factor Week 6 Show.
The numbers you need to vote are listed at the end of my rhyme
Thanks so much for reading and I hope to "see" you next time!

Lots of love to you from all at Giraffe Towers;
We're sending well wishes with our magical powers.
We're hoping that the doctors will know what to do
And that they will at last, find out what's wrong with you.

Whilst you've been in hospital you've been on our minds
And you have our support at this difficult time.
With your fighting spirit, we know you'll pull through
And you have a fabulous team all rooting for you.

You need a diagnosis before you can move on
And you're in the best place, so we're sure it won't be long.
Now we hope you'll get better as quickly as you can.
Lots of love and hugs to you and get well soon, dear Sam!

A blast from a follower
Was taken to heart
And millions were gutted
That he was about to depart.

But it wasn't the tweeter;
That has been misconstrued.
Straight from Stephen's twitter,
It was more to do with mood.

Now I'm glad to say he didn't leave
As I enjoy the tweets he sends
And I know he is admired
By several of my friends.

In fact I have a story
That one day just last week
He made a business Mum so happy
With one single solitary tweet.

The odds of her receiving a Fry tweet
Were approximately 87,000 to one
But for @mumstheboss it happened
And that's a legend that will live on and on.

So now with a good blast of sunshine
Stateside, in the heart of LA
Mr Fry, please keep smiling
And strive to tweet another day!

Another week over, and now for our delight
The X Factor contestants perform for Week 4's Rock night.
Joe has the voice of an angel, but that did not stop him
And he was the first of the acts to set our stage a'rocking.

Lucie Jones was next up with a Guns 'n' Roses hit
And I felt she was amazing, personifying a real Rock Chick.
Danyl seemed to have lost his sparkle, and struggled to keep in tune;
Perhaps he feels a little dejected after having been in the bottom two.

Next up the teenage heart-throb, part of Cheryl Cole's boy team.
Lloyd sang Katy Perry to satisfy millions of teenage girls dreams.
The next act who would be attempting to pull off more rock 'n' roll hits
Was the lovely Stacey Solomon, our very own Dagenham Ditz.

Just like Lloyd before her, it wasn't really rock
But she still got a massive round of applause, which isn't much of a shock.
Simon seemed exceptionally pleased that she had managed to sing and walk
But above all else we love Stacey, because she's hilarious when she talks.

This week for made for Jamie, I think you must agree
As he'd rocked his socks off Honey, in the style of Primal Scream.
The judges began to bicker, but at the end of the day
It's our votes that are important so it doesn't matter what they say.

Rachel Adedeiji was the next to sing and chose One by U2
And I am certain with that performance, this week she'll escape the bottom two.
That can only mean one thing with one group act left to go!
It's time to bring out the terrible twins for the John and Edward Show.

They said that they would rock us, trying to give us Queen
And they are certainly the scariest act which is apt for Halloween.
So almost at the conclusion, with just one more act to go
And cheeky little Olly Murs is coming up to close the show.

He pulled everything together so "Come together" proved to be a great choice
And I enjoyed him ripping his shirt open almost as much as the sound of his voice.
So now we have to wait twenty four hours to find out who will go
And the phone numbers you need for voting, can now be found below.

So, glad to have Louis back after his personal grief and strife
And I'm sure he welcomed the performance from his Irish pals, Westlife.
Another judge was celebrating as she had achieved her goal;
Fight For This Love is a well deserved Number One for the lovely Cheryl Cole.

This weeks celebrity mentor is an international star in every way
And we were treated to Cry Me A River by the fabulous Michael Buble.
A brief intermission followed for more advertorial breaks;
Who'll be in the bottom two? I hope it's Jedward for all of our sakes.

8 Acts will definitely go through to next weeks show;
And Stacey Solomon was the first that Dermot let know
Then Olly and Rachel followed by Joe and Lucie Jones
And I think that John and Edward are using magic on the phones.

How did they get through again? It's fast becoming a joke
This show is all about talent, although what they have is bespoke.
I'm not sure who'd buy their singles as they don't seem to be able to sing
But if it carries on like this, I have a bad feeling they might win.

Jamie Archer was the seventh and there there were just three;
Lloyd, Miss Frank and Danyl, who would the last saved one be?
Lloyd smiled his way to victory (he had his backflip to thank)
So in the bottom two, that left Danyl and Miss Frank.

The ladies sang again first, trying their best to sound strong
Before Danyl reignited the audience with his first audition song.
For one of these two acts, the X Factor journey was about to End
And Danyl made it through deadlock with a little help from his friends!

It's so long to the band that first auditioned individually alone
And now on week three, Miss Frank are on their way home.
This has been a fabulous experience for the three of them to bank;
So my most sincere commiserations go the marvellous Miss Frank.

It's X Factor time and what treats have been planned?
All of the acts will be performing with a fabulous big band.
They're singing for survival, hoping for votes from you and me
So turn onto ITV1 and get ready for the X Factor Live Shows week 3!

Welcome back to Louis, great to have you back again
As without your cheeky Irish charm, the show is not the same.
Simon's team kicked off the show, with Olly singing Bewitched;
A wonderful performance which he pulled off without a hitch!

Lloyd flew us to the moon, which wouldn't have been Simon's choice
But the audience seemed to like it and I thought it suited his voice.
The judges gave their opinions, and seemed to be somewhat split
After Lloyd showed us his fun side by doing a wonderful back flip!

Next came Miss Frank, looking rather foxy in black
Adding a nice hint of rap to their Frank Sinatra track.
I wish I'd been the audience, as musically, this evening, it sounds sweet
And Miss Frank with That's Life, is so far my favourite performance this week.

Pyrotechnics galore as Rachel took the Mic
And at last she pulled off a performance that all the judges liked.
Rachel rushed to hug her mentor and declared it her best day ever;
What a transformation! She has really got it together!

After a last minute decision, Jamie had only had 24 hours
To get a grip of his song choice and demonstrate his vocal powers.
It seemed to be slightly lack lustre and a bit of his sparkle has gone
But the true highlight for me was the Louis Impression by Simon.

Next being described at Cinderella , it was Stacey who stole the show
For me, I think Big Band Week, has given her a magical glow.
Looking absolutely sensational and reaching some beautiful notes
This week, I think Stacey Solomon, will be getting a lot of votes.

The instrumental was amazing as Danyl was feeling good
And he absolutely smashed it, just as we knew he could.
Another amazing performance and the judges showered him with praise.
Simon was smiling knowingly; He knew the bar had officially been raised.

The next act truly showed us how a Big Band Act should go.
His smooth voice wowed the audience and I was very impressed with Joe.
Sway, we certainly did as he wonderfully executed his choice.
This likely lad from the North East really has an amazing voice!

Lucie Jones came next and Cheryl, Louis and Danni toasted her success
Yet Simon Cowell made a comment about her singing it like an actress.
I think her voice is lovely and she'll have won a vote or two;
Just one more act to go, then the voting lines will open for you.

They saved the two horrors for last. Isn't it time that they were gone?
A dubious performance ensued from the terrible twins Edward and John.
I'm not sure Ricky Martin actually classes as a Big Band Act
But these two are skating on thin ice and that is a true X Factor fact!

So another week is over, and now to the public the choice goes
The numbers you need for voting, can now be found below.
So go on then, grab your telephone. What are you waiting for?
Vote NOW for the act you want to see on The X Factor Live Shows Week 4!

I've been looking forward to Cheryl's performance all week
And she didn't let us down! I was impressed with her break beat.
Her dancing was amazing and she really looked at home
And though we know her best from Girl's Aloud, she still does well alone.

What a start to the live results show - it was as good as can be
And we still have to look forward to the performance from Whitney!
With the next break over and the phone lines closed
Dermot will announce the result! The public's feeling exposed!

Whitney looked sensational in a long length silver dress;
She suffered a wardrobe malfunction and perhaps has passed her best.
More ads on their way and at last the announcement of the results can begin!
Who'll be in the bottom two? I am hoping it will be the Twins.

The first act to get through was Olly followed by Miss Frank
Then came lovely Joe and they all had their performances to thank.
Danyl also went through as his performance was supreme
Then Lucie also got chosen to continue her X Factor dream.

Jamie Afro Archer was the sixth person to go through
Then Stacey took her place, and that's all thanks to me and you.
Lloyd was certain to go through and then the Twins went too, to my shock
So it was left Rikki and Rachel to face this weeks deadlock.

Rachel sung "With or Without You" and she has already been here before;
Then Rikki sung "Flying Without Wings" which I enjoyed a whole lot more.
Which way will the judges go, can Rachel's luck last one more time
The judges are giving there opinions; Wonder if they'll mirror mine?

One vote from Danni for Rikki and Rachel had a vote from Ms Cole
But Simon has the casting vote, and it's his show on the whole.
He chose to send home Rikki, which was a bit of a surprise to me
And Rachel gets to sing another day - so here is to Week three!

I was truly so pleased to hear Cheryl expressing her rage
At the fact John and Edward get to return to this stage!
Perhaps now this Twin fad will finish and officially be over;
Vote to get out the twins by the end of October!

How the John and Edward got through I will never understand
And I dread to think what they will sing next week on Big Band.
The competition is judged on talent and they clearly have none;
Fingers crossed everybody, that next week they will be gone!

If you missed the Saturday night show, or just need a recap, you can find it here - X Factor Week 2 Live Show Breakdown.

View Article  X Factor Live Shows WEEK 2
As the start credits rolled, I knew I was in for a treat
Listening to these 11 contestants perform for Diva's Week.
Week one is over and new songs have been rehearsed;
A great start to the show as Lucie Jones was up first.

Olly Murs came second and executed what he had planned
Then next up the fabulous Miss Frank; My very favourite band.
Simon was quite scathing but Cheryl was there to save the day
She stood up for these ladies, as Louis Walsh is still away.

Rachel Adedeji, was first up after the ads
And she belted out Beyonce and gave it everything she had.
Next came Joe from the North East, who has to be my favourite boy
And his rendition of  "Where do broken hearts go?" was one I really did enjoy.

Another advert break and then Danyl took the stage;
He wanted to show a different side and set his mark upon the page.
Simon smiled on proudly and the audience cheered and cheered
From a risky Whitney song choice, a true Diva did appear!

Yet another ad break, so I slipped off to make some tea
To avoid watching the advert with Ant and Dec on the Nintendo Wii.
I knew that the next part would see a take on a Leona song;
Perhaps another risky song choice where so much could go wrong.

A 16 year old boy, Lloyd was determined to give it a go
And despite his "bleeding love" his talent had a chance to show.
Cheryl was moved to tears as Simon's reaction was not good
So she took full responsibility, which as his mentor, of course she should!

I didn't know whether to carry on watching as the next act did begin;
I wasn't looking forward to a performance from the nation's favourite twins.
"Ooops I did it again", should be their motto, you must agree;
Will the red pvc suits save them and allow them to come back for X Factor Week 3?

I was glad for the next adverts so I could regain my composure.
What act would be up next for their Week 2 exposure?
8 acts have been on and few moments have been sticky
So I was pinning all my hopes on this next performance from Rikki.

Aretha Franklin, for Mr Loney was somewhat a brave choice
And Simon voiced my opinion, in that it was too big for his voice.
Next up came Jamie Afro, our own X Factor rocker;
He pulled off Christina's "Hurt", in a new Diva shocker!

I can't believe how quickly the programme seems to go
And up last but not least, was Stacey, who came to close the show.
She didn't sound overly hopeful that the words would be flowing free
But she did a great job and her performance was as good as can be.

Simon's opinion was met with a round of boos
But ultimately it's not up to him, it's up to me and you.
To vote to save your favourite act you need to pick up the phone;
It's the one thing you can do whilst you are sitting comfortably at home.

So with a week that saw Whitney Houston take the time to coach them all,
The numbers you need for voting are below, waiting for you to call.
It's time for you to start thinking about who your winner might be
And more importantly who you would like to see in the X Factor Live Shows Week 3!

View Article  Birthday Poem for Davina McCall
Today is a special day for one who is loved by all
And that wonderful individual is the fabulous Davina McCall.
Birthdays are a reflective time, so let's look back at your life
And all the things you have achieved, as Presenter and Mother and Wife.

Your lucky Husband Matthew, truly got a wonderful catch
As he took you as his Streetmate; His perfect loving match.
The smile that you display shows how much you love each other
And together you worked on your next project as you became Big Mutha.

Your children adore you; You're so lovely and jolly
And you always do your best for Chester, Milly and Holly.
You are a natural Mummy and it suits you it seems
And I am also impressed that you're a Homebirther Supreme!

You also showed your colours as the foxiest woman alive
As you interviewed in your bikini, on Big Brother 2005.
I remember smiling proudly as your public were surprised;
Women all want to be you and the men are mesmerized.

You've had so much variation over your working years,
Think back to Popstars the Rivals; You helped to launch Girls Aloud's Career!
Comic Relief is also a cause that we relate to you;
One of your finest moments was the cheeky snog with Doctor Who.

We're so glad you you truly put your heart and soul into all;
No other presenter matches up to Davina McCall.
There clearly is nothing that you cannot do
And you look absolutely amazing, today turning 42.

You were born in '67 on the 16th of October
So now your year of being 41 is officially over
Look forward to future and all it has in store
And I hope your Birthday brings you all you want and more.

I hope that you are being spoilt today as you deserve to be
With lots of cards and presents from your friends and family.
But what do you get for the woman who truly has it all?
I know, a personalised poem dedicated to the lovely Davina McCall.

You were live on Big Brother, (so please do not swear)
And Garnier saw your beauty, and your mahogany chesnut hair.
I'd like to say "You're worth it!" and everyone agrees it's true
So it's an honour, dear Davina, to say Happy 42nd Birthday to you.

Davina has always been a favourite of mine as she is a fabulous lady all round and also is a fan of homebirth, just like me. So it's a true honour to wish her a very happy birthday today with a personalised poem.

Hope you have a great day Davina!
