Fleur East's X Factor winner's single will be a cover of One Republic's 'Something I Need', it's been announced.

'Ben Haenow' has also recorded the same song, while pug fetishist Andrea Faustini's warbled his way through Whitney Houston's 'I Didn't Know My Own Strength'.

A 'source' with close con­nec­tions to both The X Factor and the Mirror had this to say about it all:

“Whoever wins, the song choices are very strong. They are set to be sure-fire hits."

A sleigh­bell-infused remix of 'Uptown Funk' would have been nice, but this will do for now.
