Anyway - Wednesday 15 September 2010 - Tonight's show is marked out of 5 and I've not a clue what's going on with the scoring system.
Manic Street Preachers:

Song 1: Same sound - Manics sound. Not bad. SCORE 3
Song 2: Nothing to say - did nothing for me. SCORE 2
Queen Emily (with a name like that she better be good...):
Great voice - nice song - kind of torch song
Kind of like Gladys Knight but then she started screaming and ruined it.
SCORE 4
Mark Ronson & ? (It's Mark Ronson and The Business International):

A Buggles lookalike woman who is not bad (a bit Lily Allenish) but then the rapping started - overall, not my scene
Score 1
Guest - Herb Alpert (one of my old time fave trumpeters):

(Little tennis ball head) Phil Collins:
Very boring, I am going to the loo. Just got the end of it and he tried to be a bit like Frank Sinatra or someone like that and failed miserably
SCORE 1.

Very intense - like the song & good voices
SCORE 4.
