What will the winners single be, any ideas. Who will be duetting with who on the night? Judging by the list its looking pretty obvious, so far, unless more live acts are added. Also Olly Murs, his last stint presenting Xtra Factor, trying to crack America next year, watch out Rylan Clarke could be the next co-host.

Radio 1 said earlier that there are 3 different winers songs this year, one for each guy.

I hope it isn't Skyscraper, Demi's version is excellent and should have been a massive hit, but since she's on XF US I can see it happening.

I thought Skycrapper was Union J's entry as the winners single, as the last 4 acts have already recorded the winners track.

actually Skyscraper doesn't fit much, especially Mahoney, but again they've never had a problem with it in the past

Simon seems to love Shontelle's Impossible guess he got the rights/cut a deal or something

The 3 winner tracks have been leaked by the Sun, if they are true. They are: Jahmene - Let It Be James - Impossible Chris - The Reason (Hoobastank) On that basis they clearly want Jahmene to win. No idea why, cos he will not sell records. It's tragic that Chris' song is the one I like the most of the three! Simon seems to love Shontelle's Impossible guess he got the rights/cut a deal or something Definitely. If I recall, it was supposed to be Cher Lloyd's winners song.

Simon seems to love Shontelle's Impossible guess he got the rights/cut a deal or something Probably because the original was part of Stockholm's The Vault production team whose main songwriter/producer Arnthor Birgisson has (co-)written hit singles for (former) Cowell & Walsh clientele Ronan Keating, Samantha Mumba, Shayne Ward, Leona Lewis & One Direction.

Out of all the tracks The Reason is the best winners track, I wish James was singing it instead of Chris, Chris would be more suited to Let It Be, and Jehmene singing Impossible.

I´ve always had a soft spot for Impossible, so hope James win the other 2 song choices are horrible

They should not touch Let it be And I dont think it actually suits his voice anyway, because I think it's quite a downbeat song. Dont know the Impossible song, but it doesn't sound a good choice for James Arthur?

Considering he usually puts his own spin on everything anyway, can't see a problem with Impossible.
I imagine Let It Be is like the Across The Universe version which is very gospel, and Chris singing The Reason is about the worst thing I can imagine.
