Yes, as we sit here in judgement of the contestants tonight, we must also lament their inability to rock convincingly. Seriously, we’re not gonna discover the next Axl Rose or Caleb Followill on this year’s X Factor.

So Rock Week was a bit of a bust. We witnessed the toppling of Danyl Johnson with a very stilted performance of an Aerosmith song, and guys like Joe McElderry and Olly Murs came out strong with good, albeit safe performances of rock songs.

So who were the pick of tonight’s acts and who were the dregs? Here’s the Unreality TV chart – and a note to the flamers, these are our opinions. You’re entitled to your own opinions. You’ll be wrong, but you’re entitled to them anyway. Tell us your favourites in the comments section!

1. Rachel Adedeji – Rachel continued her winning streak by giving an almost flawless rendition of U2′s One. Performing the Mary J Blige version gave her a modern edge while allowing her to show a brilliant vocal. Not sure about that dress though.
2. Lucie Jones – Lucie stopped singing more mature songs and tackled a GNR song in the style of Avril Lavigne. The judges praised her for becoming relevant and contemporary. Not only did she look great tonight, she gave a lively and confident performance.
3. Jamie Afro – Despite Jamie being the contestant with the rock chops, Louis criticised him for lacking authenticity, saying he was a cheap Lenny Kravitz impersonator. In fairness, Jamie gave a strong performance but didn’t do much to distance himself from the label of ‘pub singer’.
4. Olly Murs / Joe McElderry – It’s not often we do joint positioning, but Olly and Joe pulled off the same trick tonight. Neither were going to be much cop as rock singers, but they took their respective songs, sang them well and remained safe. Their performances were passable, more an effort by both of them to stay safe and get through to next week!
5. Stacey Solomon – Stacey is starting to come across as the poor man’s Leona Lewis. Her vocals tonight were weaker than usual and the choice of a dull Keane song did nothing to excite us. She has a great voice under normal conditions, but despite what the judges said, her performance was still lacking. She walked? Is that enough to win the competition?
6. Lloyd Daniels – To be fair to Lloyd, he did improve his performance this week. The singing was a dodgy as ever, and Lloyd was completely out of control. Uncomfortable to watch, but then I’m not the one who keeps voting him back each week!
7. Danyl Johnson – I don’t know if Danyl really was that nervous tonight or if it was a bit of a sympathy play. Either way, his out of tune singing and stilted performance were a massive disappointment. Is he really that affected by criticism? I don’t know.
8. Jedward – These tuneless buffoons are clearly there to pull in the votes and make Simon a fortune. As Sinitta said on Xtra Factor, no-one will buy their records, and that’s a fact. They didn’t know the lyrics, their performances are shambolic to say the least, a smokescreen for their lack of singing ability.

Phew, that’s our tuppence worth folks. It was a hard chart to make tonight, and we had some issues over placement. We’d really like your input – who were your favourites tonight?
