I have to say, I only realised it was Gary singing when the camera drew back.

You know, I would've told them either cough up and use the original... or piss off. And shove their jubillee up their arse.

I don't know why Gary Barlow has become such a God-like figure in the music industry -I used to like him but he's really getting on my nerves now

X Factor... that's it really, it really does put you in the spotlight. Just look where it managed to take Cheryl Cole.

Wondered why they wouldn't use the original then remembered they have some sort of a deal with XF (Simon cowell) don't they? They had that awful embarrasing XF Xmas ad with all the contestants.singing on it that went down like a lead balloon.:sleep:

It's almost as good as his cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit...

And i think its following on from Ellie Goulding Your Song for House of Frasier

And Charlene Soria Wherever you may go for Twinnings brings alot of revenue and attention

He doesn't have anywhere near the talent to do so.

I wish he would just f**k off and stop ruining everyone else's songs. Surely he's earned enough money from lowering himself to take part in the evil X Factor and becoming a mini-Cowell to not have to try and flog Marks and Spencers?

Laughable to think of Gary having the songwriting abilities of George.

I have some appreciation of GB and his song writing abilities, so why dont you just ( see highlighted test above ), you clearly dont have any clue of the current british song writing talent.

That said, he not up to the Beatles song writing abilities, but who is you ( see highlighted test above, first word ) and its a silly comparision to have ever been thought of

It's not even an obscure song. The mind boggles.

It's my first time hearing the song though, and not even the original version too

Then again, I really only listen to Top 40 radio when I'm driving (Not UK's radio, Toronto's radio station)

No not really. Maybe those of a certain age, say, most over 30/40, but not the younger ones. I am sure if I played it to my son (21) he wouldnt know. It isnt a crime.

I'm 23 and I know it. These kind of things just surprise me I guess. It would be like being a fan of history and not having heard of the Magna Carta.
