Band Aid CD... Steve CD

Rock... Hard place.


Think I'll keep the cash.

I've DL the single, so no.
But I will buy the album.

Yep, I'll be buying it. One of my fave songs, until Westlife and Mariah put me off it, but Steve's version is great!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't like Band Aid 20 - I think its awful.

You betcha but not for the A-side track. Although I've downloaded the single from his site and think that he sounds great. He really sings it well, I can't stand the song. I love the other 2 tracks and it is for this reason that I'll be buying his cd. I haven't yet bought the charity single but will do even though I know I won't play it.

In a word, no.

Yes, I think he will just about manage it, but I do wish it was being released 27th or 3rd Jan instead. Keep Band Aid 20 at the top all over Christmas, I say! I am not saying don't buy his single, thats the choice of the music-buying public...just to consider it.

It will line Mr Cowells pockets, if only slightly, as the owner of the copyright will take a bite from the money pie, too.

johnny you were almost nice to Steve then, be careful.

lol, yeah I was.

to the question posted---No.

Maybe you need to lie down for a while I am sure your Steve loathing will return to normal then

I will buy it but I wish he was releasing something else because I feel this song is not right for him(IMHO)

maybe it should be a double a-side with higher and higher

I won't be buying it, much prefer the Phil Collins original version

i like both

I'll deff be buying Steve's single.

I didn't buy the Bland Aid single because it's absolute pants! Bring back Boy George and Paul Young I say!

I love the single and I never get covers but will on this occasion. Its a classy version and his voice sounds lovely on the download version. Downloaded all the songs he performed each week and they are all just brilliant.

From where? I want them too!

Its here

The site

here we go again it wont show up . You'll just have to work it out from this:

www . the - x - factor . co. uk / popidol / index

Thanks I'll go check it out

No...I've heard it on the radio twice and to be honest that's twice too many.

I'll be buying it. but i just wish they'd release it a couple of weeks later so it would have more of a chance of getting to number 1. Doubt it will being released on the 20th.

nope i aint buying it, i am buying the band aid one and i think he may have hard time gettin them off the number one spot, whats the betting the song is moved and not out next week when Simple Simon sees the sales from this week already. if they release yer know I wud not hold me breath it will make number one mateys as that band aid song aint been bought by everyone as said here, many of me friends is buying next week for christmas pressies when they gets payed like. so nothing is for sure where this song of OLD Stevies is concerned yer know and i want to give me money to charity like me mam did 20 years ago even tho I like her version from then better i wanna know i did me bit, not put it in cowells coffers and Philly baby has enough bucks already

Just listened to the download and I have to say that I think his version is very good. It's much better than the Westlife/Mariah Carey version but nowhere near as good as the original by Phil Collins.

I wont be buying his single but then I always wait until the compilation albums are released. If Steve's song appears on the compilation album of my choice, I will be happy to listen to it. I dont buy singles as a rule because I think they are poor value for money.

I don't usually either, as I agree with you that they are not good value for money. In these sort fo cases it isn't just about value for money though, it's about showing support for an artist. I will be buying Steve's just as I always buy Darius's for exactly the same reason.
