Heard about The Military Wives choir this morning on SKY news -the song hasn't been aired in Italy but I have had a listen on Youtube -it has all the ingredients of the winner -"feelgood", "tugs at the heartstrings" video - good singing from a competent choir and it has a Xmassy feel. The hint of mischief in the lead-singer's tattoos just stops it being too goody-goody as well!
It was on Hotmail news that Simon Cowell had already congratulated the Military Wives as the sales so far suggest massive swing for them away from the X-factor single - so hopefully it will remain that way and it won't be the X-factor.
