Rhydian:Week 5 Rhydian sings Go West

On a slightly depressing note this wasn't the Rhydler's best performance. And it's difficult to put a finger on why. Listening back to the MP3 his vocals are spot on, perfectly in tune with a great climax at the end. And he looked like perfection. Maybe it is down to the song selection? There are some sublime disco songs out there and I feel that if he is going to do a camp disco song he should have gone for it more...a lot more choreography, a lot more strutting, he needed to really go over the top with that particular song. I got the feeling that Rhydian himself didn't really believe in what he was doing. And when it comes down to it maybe this is what we need to make the competition more interesting - to see a close race with Rhydian winning the nations hearts in the final against Same Difference who when they lose break down into a massive fit of depression.
If I am proved wrong and on Monday morning the Royal Navy report a large increase in applications to join them then I will take my comments back.
Judges comments:

Louis:As camp as Xmas. High camp
Simon:I don't feel I'm on the same show anymore
Danniii:We salute you Rhydian
Sharon:I love extremely camp

Rhydian song for week 5: Go West

Made famous by demurely dressed Village People and the Pet Shop Boys this is possibly the perfect disco song for 2007 X Factor winner Rhydian. The song is “is a rallying cry for the colonization of the American West and is also generally understood as an expression of the 1970s sentiment of San Francisco as a utopia for the Gay Liberation movement “ according to Wikapedia's entry. But the Welsh Wonder is not going to sing it straight. According to his blog entry he is going to attempt to mash up disco, opera, dance and a Welsh male voice choir.
Rumours abound that Rhyd will emerge from a giant disco mirrorball at the beginning of the song dressed from head to foot in a silver spandex bodysuit but these have been denied by ITV. Expect your television and your brain to go into meltdown some time early Saturday evening.

Although she's doing well for him this week Rhydian's mentor Dannniiii has yet again failed to find a song that Leon can connect with and make his own. On the official X Factor site she is quoted as saying, “We've tried really hard but there just aren't any disco songs about stage fright.”

Sadly, with an upbeat disco song the 'prozac pair' Same Difference are sure to survive. Where is the X Factor Jacques Brel or Leonard Cohen week when you really need it.
