geoffvalenti Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Heard this on Jonathan Ross show last night- it's definately poo That was categorically the worst rendition of the song that I've ever heard :thumbdown The male singer was, or looked, drunk. The whistle was excrutiatingly out of tune with the piano, and there was no feeling in the song whatsoever. The original with Kirsty McColl was in a different league. Not necessarily the best musically executed performance in the world, but oozing with emotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supragal Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I have heard the original too, still not great. Isnt that guy always like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lust2luv Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 Yeah, I think it's fair to say Shane probably hasn't been sober for more than a few minutes in the last 25 years. That wasn't the best rendition, the original with Kirsty (which is the one released) is far better. That x-factor bloke sold 300,000 copies of his single in its first day of release, so we'd better get buying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if that's a true figure - or just more hype to bring in buyers! It was decided weeks ago that whoever won X-Factor would be xmas #1. Trev the sceptic!!

It was decided weeks ago that whoever won X-Factor would be xmas #1. Trev the sceptic!! Well it was pretty obvious that whoever wins whatever talent competition of the moment will be number one, something like 5 million people voted so the chances are some of those people are going to go and buy! They are madly promoting even now tho, in Portsmouth they even have signs up on the lamp posts with his picture on, how often do you see that??!
