'X Factor' Christmas Week Song Choices Revealed Ahead Of Semi-Final

And yes, there's some Mariah Carey.

With Christmas just around the corner, the ‘X Factor’ contestants will be getting festive this weekend, as the four remaining acts battle it out for a place in the final.

And ahead of Saturday’s (3 December) Christmas-themed live show, bosses have revealed which Yuletide classics they will be taking on.

Before you ask, yes, someone is doing Mariah.

But as well as taking on a festive classic, Matt Terry, Emily Middlemas, Saara Aalto and 5 After Midnight will also be singing a second song to increase their chances of making the final.

Check out the full list of song choices below:

  • Matt will be singing the hymn ‘Silent Night’ and Jessie Ware’s ‘Say You Love Me’.
  • Emily will be singing John Lennon’s ‘Merry Xmas (War is Over)’ and Gary Jules’ ‘Mad World’.
  • Saara will be singing Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’ and Sia’s ‘Chandelier’.
  • 5 After Midnight will be singing East 17’s ‘Stay Another Day’ and Stevie Wonder’s ‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I’m Yours)’.

Last weekend saw Honey G crash out of the competition, after landing in the sing-off with 5 After Midnight.
