Any Dream Will Do Recap #2

You have to wonder what is behind the selection of the V.T material as we saw Chris crying again! His performance made me cry, but for all the wrong reasons, as this is the first time I have seen a straight-jacketed version of the Lionel Ritchie hit All Night Long. Chris lacked fun and looked too serious and scared to be a contender. Barrowman called him "nervous and bland." Again, he was outclassed by superior performers and looked like he was going to cry, again!

Smiling through songs might be seen as a vote winner but there comes a time when it can be really cheesy. Daniel looked more gorgonzola than ever tonight. His V.T showed him writing a song for Cats when he was just 6 years old. This did him no favours and his song, McFly's All About You was exactly that; all about him, rather than the song, itself. He lacked sparkle and over pronounced the lyrics to such an extent he sounded like he was auditioning for Brief Encounter. Barrowman summed it up, describing the performance as "nice, nice, nice." Daniel always argues back though, counteracting any advice he is given, which will not endear him with the public. He is not Joseph as he comes across as 'nicey-nicey' but actually remains a know-all, even when he is being given constructive criticism by professionals.

We saw who was the fittest as they were all asked to perform on the barricade set in Les Miserables. Most of them looked distinctly unfit. But Ben shone, giving a breathless performance, as opposed to 'out of breath.'

The judges chose their performer who they thought was not Joseph. Bill Kenwright and Denise chose Rob. John chose Lewis and Zoe chose Lee. The viewers disagreed as Craig and Chris ended up in the sing off.

Craig surprised everyone by performing The Long And Winding Road incredibly well. He really rose to the challenge and for once, looked like he had some fight in him. Chris, on the other hand seemed subdued and ready to go. Andrew saw this and sent Chris home, leaving him to sing Close Every Door.

Who will survive next week? Apparently, you decide, although my money's on Keith.
