Alexandra Burke - I wanna dance with somebody chords
Start Jamming...
Well, first up is someone to prove to Louis that three years ago he actually lost his mind.
It's the gorgeous Alexandra.
[E] We know you, right?
[Bm] You know me.
She came to Dublin.
[Em] I didn't check her.
[Bm] You were born to sing.
In every sense, I [G] think you're world class.
You're in the top ten.
[Em]
[N] [C] [Ab] Being where I am right now in the final 12 is the biggest thing that's ever happened to me.
I have to keep pinching myself every now and then and [G] remind myself, wow, look where you are.
I [C] live in North London with my mum, my auntie, my sister and my two brothers.
My family and I don't really have a lot.
I have to sing in [Eb] restaurants to make ends meet, [Ab] but I want something more [G] now.
When I really, really think [Cm] about what this show could do to my life, I get terrified.
Alexandra's always sung ballads throughout this whole competition.
So tonight I [Ab] wanted to give her an upbeat song.
She's going [G] to have to [Cm] sing and dance, which is going to be a big challenge.
Dancing and singing together isn't something I'm used to.
I [Ab] am frightened that if either of them go wrong, I could fall flat on my face.
She can do bold, but if she doesn't get [A] them right on [C] stage together, the performance is a flop.
[Fm] When I step onto that stage, it's going to be the biggest moment of my life.
[Eb] Alexandra has waited three years for this.
I wanted to go out there and prove it was [G] worth the wait.
This is all I wanted.
I cannot fail.
All my dreams are over.
[Dm] [F]
[N] Alexandra Bach.

[Am] [Bb] [Gm]
When the [C] night falls, my lonely heart [F] falls.
Somebody, [C] somebody, [Dm]
somebody, [Bb] [Gm]
somebody [Bb] loves [F] me.
Oh, somebody,
[Dm] somebody,
[Bb] [Gm] somebody [Bb] loves me.
[C] [Dm]
Someone who loves me, [Dm] [A]
[C] to hold me in his [Gm] arms.
[F] The chance from [F] the other [Am] world's not enough to [Bb]
last.
When [D] the night falls,
[Bb] [G] [Gb]
somebody, [Gb]
somebody, [Ebm]
[B]
[Gb] somebody loves me.
[Em] [N]
You sing like a diva and you dance like a diva.
I am so glad.
You're amazing.
Alexandra, I have to tell you, I've seen Whitney perform that song and she just stood there and like tapped on the microphone.
You did all of that choreography incredibly.
And just one thing it was missing.
Can you just look this way and go
I think I did your favor.
She's so much better.
Enough, enough, enough.
Alexandra, it was a bit of an obvious song choice.
You doing Whitney.
I wouldn't have chosen the song.
Having said that, I think you look fantastic.
I think you managed to put your own interpretation on the song brilliantly.
And now I'm going to ask Louis Walsh to apologize to you.
Did I do the right thing three years ago?
You did.
Now I'm a better person.
I'm in a better state of mind.
And you've got a better mentor.
A better mentor.
So, Simon, in a way, I've done you a favor.
Absolutely, I agree with everything you said.
I agree with that.
Alexandra, you owned that stage tonight.
Considering how nervous you were when I seen you ten minutes ago,
you absolutely tore it up and I am so proud of you.
I love you.
You were terrific.
[E] First things first, you handled the classic X Factor banana skin,
which is the stairs, box, turn, heel scenario very [C] well.
So we're very impressed with that.
Secondly, what did you make of the judges' comments?
I mean, that's pretty great, right? It's fantastic.
And I'm just so grateful for the opportunity to be on this stage.
So thank you so much.
And if I'm back next week, I won't do a Whitney,
but I'll probably do something better.
It's a good song because, you know,
I guess you probably want to do a ballad every week,
so it's good to do something that's a bit more up, right?
Because I've been doing ballads throughout the whole show
and I wanted to do an up-tempo and show you guys I've got rhythm.
[D] [Gb]
Wouldn't you love it?
Alexandra [E] wants your votes and giving them to her could not be easier.
[Gb] All you have to do is [Ab] call 0901 [B] 6161104
when [Gb] lines are open after all the [Ebm] acts have performed.
Brilliant stuff.
Alexandra, everyone.
Thank you.
[B] [D]
