The FOG Factor - Series 2 - Live Show

[E.N.]

Well done @aaronjennings and @Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick, a worthy final!






...well, apart from not including me

[Necro]

I'm so sorry Deja, I was looking back through the previous rounds and I voted for your songs on more days than I didn't, you absolutely deserved to reach the final IMO

Kol hasn't technically announced the result yet I can always change my mind

[Jluv]

Hard luck Deja!! So close...so many of your entries were so great!
Congrats finalists.. looking forward to the final songs..

[Kol]

Going home tonight is @DejaBoo  Thanks for playing Deja, tremendous going to finish in the top 3. Please make your way to the losers lounge. You'll be glad to hear you only have one night to endur there, I will be kicking everyone out tomorrow evening. There will be a winners party for everyone at Club Fog tomorrow night.

To play us out tonight is the ever dull U2.



We have our finalists, congrats to @Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick and @aaronjennings

I will post the final entries tomorrow with details on the voting, which as always will be by pm.

Thanks and see you all tomorrow

[RSOAPS]

Such a shame @DejaBoo, I thought you played a fantastic game, and it would suck for whoever as was booted out at the very final hurdle, but finishing in a podium position is a great feat in itself, so congrats on achieving the Bronze.

[E.N.]

Great work, as always @Kol
Some amount of effort gone into this, many thanks

[aaronjennings]

And good luck to you in advance for tomorrow, Rachel

[Kol]

With 8 votes each, this weeks top acts were @Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick  and @aaronjennings  well done both.

[RSOAPS]

And good luck to you in advance for tomorrow, Rachel

Likewise... Good luck to you too... No matter who wins has been a fierce game throughout...

I'm expecting some great covers from you, so I do hope you bring your A Game to the table...

My selections have been submitted to the Host and I'm ready to go head to head in this final showdown!

[lorcand1990]

Would have been interesting if Aaron got voted out by the judges and had the joint best song of the round 

[jp liz v1]

Well Done  @aaronjennings

[Spears]

Well done @DejaBoo you played a great game. You should be very proud of how far you got 




Best of luck to the two finalists. 

@Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick From Judge to contestant- then getting to the finals is a great achievement. Well done!

@aaronjennings You were robbed in Series 1, so I'm happy that you got so far in this game. Well deserved.

[RSOAPS]

Would have been interesting if Aaron got voted out by the judges and had the joint best song of the round 

Not gonna lie, once Spears cast her Thanks for me, and myself and aaron were tied at 8-8, I was praying that there were no more votes coming today because I knew I had the tiebreak advantage from yesterday... 

At that point I was just sitting there and checking that everything stayed as it was until 8pm, intermittently shouting at my screen like I was William Wallace...  

[Spears]

Butty's premonition has come to pass. Welcome, Deja! Watch out for Lorcan and bring a whip to encourage Spears into the kitche, we're all starving here.

I make a mean roast, and there's plenty for the tea drinkers. & Kol if he'd dare enter the lounge.


The brats can share Butty's beans with him.

I made the pot big enough for you all.

& even put some exotic spices in there too. Help yourselves folks 

[jp liz v1]

Hard Luck @DejaBoo but welcome to LL

As I just this on boards...

[Leg End Reject]

I'll listen to these later but I'm not sure how voting works.

[Kol]

Do we vote for our favourite overall or on a song by song basis in the order they're posted?

yes your favourite overall, so you just vote once.

What you base that vote on is up to you.

[nothing]

I just want to say thanks to both finalists for not making it an easy choice!

[jp liz v1]

A tough final battle, interesting choices

[lorcand1990]

Vote gone in, well done both & best of luck 

[Kol]

Forgot to add, BOTH CONTESTANTS CAN VOTE so best to register one.

[aaronjennings]

Two very different sets of songs there

[RSOAPS]

The lack of discussion is incredibly disconcerting.

Actual footage of me and aaron right now...

[Leg End Reject]

This is like Sophie's Choice, both have 1 song I didn't enjoy.

[aaronjennings]

The lack of discussion is incredibly disconcerting.

The silence is deafening... or is that because I've been listening to the songs with the volume too loud?

[Kol]

I'm hoping for more votes, we are just over 50% turn out.

I won't be revealing who voted, you can reveal who you voted for yourself after the results.

[lorcand1990]

[jp liz v1]

It was easy for me.  I only liked one of the six songs!

Declan reviewing these songs  



I actually liked them all, some more than others.

Well done and good luck finalists. Like leg end each contestant had one that I wasn't particularly a fan of but appreciate that they are good covers. But I did really like all the others and had to listen multiple times before making a decision..
Looking forward to the reveal and the after party🎉🎉🍹🍷🥃🎉🎉
