Harry Styles was credited for selecting the Bryan Adams number, he said on the ITV2 Xtra Factor: \u201cI selected this song because it was the first song I had ever performed with my band\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>We think it was a very smart song choice by Harry, and the boys performance did it justice. However, we do agree with Dannii Minogue that their hormones still need a bit more improvement. But I am sure Simon Cowell knows this and behind the scenes he will be working to put it right.

I think you\u2019re the next big boyband.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dannii Minogue:<\/strong> It seems like you\u2019ve done a lot of work this week and you\u2019ve really stepped it up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cheryl Cole:<\/strong> We\u2019ve got feet stamps going on, there\u2019s electric in the room. you keep growing and getting better and better. I think there\u2019s a big future for you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Simon Cowell: <\/strong>I had nothing to do with this song choice, Harry chose the song. Let\u2019s remember, next week is the semi final, you\u2019ve worked your butts off to get here. Lets hope people pick up the phone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You Are So Beautiful Comments:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Louis Walsh: <\/strong>You\u2019ve proved tonight you\u2019re not just another boyband. You\u2019re a great vocal group and you\u2019ve proved that you can all sing. My only thing about it is\u2026..I don\u2019t think it\u2019s a rock song. I don\u2019t really think it\u2019s in the rules but it was a brilliant song.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dannii Minogue: <\/strong>Guys there\u2019s one word for that and that\u2019s stunning. Absolutely beautiful..<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cheryl Cole:<\/strong> It\u2019s great to see you having fun and all the dancers but I absolutely love you standing there and just singing. You have a really bright future as a boyband.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Simon Cowell:<\/strong> Joe Cocker actually was a rock singer Louis\u2026..do some homework. This was, in some ways, my favourite performance by you because it was beautifully sung and Zayn in particular in bootcamp you were too embarrassed to dance and you\u2019ve transformed your confidence and the boys have looked after you. I\u2019m so proud of you.<br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-0466605792016836\";\n\/* blogsmalllink 468x15, created 6\/7\/10 *\/\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"6221751502\";\ngoogle_ad_width = 468;\ngoogle_ad_height = 15;\n\/\/-->\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\n<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"One Direction made it through to The X Factor semi finals last night thanks in part to Harry Styles song choice. \u00a0 Last \n<a class=\"moretag\" href=\"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/2712\/the-x-factor-one-direction-saled-thought-to-the-x-factor-semi-finals\/\"> [...]<\/a>","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[49,3],"tags":[31],"class_list":["post-2712","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-onedirection","category-the-x-factor","tag-one-direction"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2712","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2712"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2712\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8361,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2712\/revisions\/8361"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2712"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2712"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2712"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
