Janet had very little singing experience before X Factor, only singing in school and local talent shows. Devlin previously uploaded singing videos to YouTube on a regular basis. Janet performed 'Your Song' by Elton John during the audition stage of the competition.
Janet continued to sail through the Bootcamp and Judges houses stages of the competition. She made it into the final 12 contestants of the show, impressing the judges with her renditions of 'Fix You' and 'Can't Help Falling In Love'.
Friday I'm in Love
Janet Devlin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday I'm in love
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
Saturday wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitate...
I don't care if Mondays black
Tuesday Wednesday heart attack
Thursday never looking back
It's Friday I'm in love
Monday you can hold your head
Tuesday Wednesday stay in bed
Or Thursday watch the walls instead
It's Friday I'm in love
Saturday wait
And Sunday always comes too late
But Friday never hesitate...
Dressed up to the eyes
It's a wonderful surprise
To see your shoes and your spirits rise
Throwing out your frown
And just smiling at the sound
And as sleek as a shriek
Spinning round and round
Always take a big bite
It's such a gorgeous sight
To see you eat in the middle of the night
You can never get enough
Enough of this stuff
It's Friday
I'm in love
I don't care if Monday's blue
Tuesday's grey and Wednesday too
Thursday I don't care about you
It's Friday I'm in love
Monday you can fall apart
Tuesday Wednesday break my heart
Thursday doesn't even start
It's Friday I'm in love
It's Friday I'm in love
It's Friday I'm in love
It's Friday I'm in love
It's Friday I'm in love
