Can they please ban X Factor folk from ruining their songs?
Apart from Janet Devlin, her version of Chasing Cars was awesome

Her version is absolutely terrible compared to Snow Patrol

Yes. All we had there was crap squared. No big deal.

Lol, no. Her version improves on the original in every way.

No, she breathed new life into what I thought was a pretty lifeless song.

I completely agree! Snow Patrol's version always gives me goosepimples. So emotive.

Exactly, thank you. All about the emotion. Leona has the emotion of a wet fish

I agree, she may be able to hit some impressive notes but she doesn't inject much personality into the songs.

Yep, the person who writes the lyrics knows the meaning of them and the emotions around it. Especially rock ballad type tunes.
Also love how people start caring about run once Leona covered it and then started realising how good it was!
Both versions are good and different

Bob the Builder probably got more singles sales than Snow Patrol's Run.
Statistics, damn lies and statistics...

Not true for me. Liked Snow Patrol years ago, seen them live several times, and just found LL version simply emotionless

I sometimes wonder if I'm watching the same show as some on here. They were outstanding and far better than Leona.
There are very few covers of songs that I can say are better than the originals, and Leona's version of Run is one of them. Unlike the original, Leona injected heart and soul as well as emotion into the lyrics, truly epic!
.
Heck, even one of the members of Snow Patrol said Leona's rendition was phenomenal - straight from the horse's mouth, now who can argue with that!

we all can
this thread is nonsense, Snow Patrol are one of the worst things to happen to music, their songs cannot be ruined
UnionJ's version of Run was dire. I only like Leona's brilliant version and far more than the boring original.
