Week five songs revealed!

08 Nov 08

One Sweet Day has finally arrived - It's our Mariah extravaganza!

This week, our contestants must choose a track made famous by Mariah Carey. With a back catalogue worthy of the best-selling woman in music, there are plenty of tracks to choose from.

As we announced yesterday, all of the contestants will join Mariah on stage to sing the chart-topper Hero.

But in addition, each competitor has decided on another track to twirl their tonsils around.

The songs are (not in show order):

Alexandra Burke         Without You
Daniel Evans               Open Arms
JLS                              One Sweet Day
Rachel Hylton              Against All Odds
Ruth Lorenzo              My All
Eoghan Quigg             Anytime You Need A Friend
Diana Vickers              Always Be My Baby
Laura White                Endless Love

Download the Mariah Carey original singles from iTunes:

I think Austin should have gone last week but i don't think Laura should. Its a shame a talent like that has only came 8th in the competition. Louis is pathetic and should be removed from the show, voting tactically. He keeps saying Eoghan should be in the final when hes not even a great singer and we all know why louis says this - cos eoghans irish. Two words MARIA LAWSON

What is up with the British public!! Daniel should have been gone weeks ago, and after Rachels performance tonight.....pathetic. So out of key...and her attitude sucks. JLS, Diana and Eoghan were excellent. Agree Austin should not have went and neither should Laura. Stop voting out of sympathy and get rid of Rachel and Daniel!!! PLease........

it really upsets me how the judges are so selfish week after week and vote out the best act just so that their act doesnt have a threat. laura was amazing and much better than ruth. louis has made the same mistake 3 weeks in a row and the thing that hurts the most is that he KNOWS hes doing it.

i agree with ted, a talent like laura has gone and louis only voted her off cuz he knows she couldv'e won. He has been very calculating! ruth shouldn't have been in the bottom either. WHAT AN ABSOLUTE JOKE
