absolutely stunning. I'd even go as far to say it surpasses the original! |

It's like one of those awful advert cover songs, the ones that take anything remotely creative or interesting about a original song out and turn it into elevator music.

It's not often that I find myself agreeing with Doghouse Riley but in this case I agree with everything he said. I thought it was awful and turned it off before the end.

One that is was is Neil Sedaka's "Breaking Up is Hard to Do." It works well as a slow ballad. My favourite has to be the Shirelles' MoTown tune, "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow." Carole King who wrote it later recorded it as a slow ballad. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8KlYc0xG80 I like playing that on my electric piano adding a few jazz chords and bits of improvisation, it has a fantastic chorus. (lots of "sevenths.") |

It didn't send shivers down my spine. Can I have my money back?
I'm sure she's a decent singer but that treatment does nothing for the song at all. I couldn't stand the original to be honest. |

Pretty much agree with the consensus on this thread.
I love the original though, it's an absolute classic disco tune. Think it's futile covering this song, nobody is able compete with those unique Bee Gees vocals. |

I blame Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh for this kind of crap.
"Do it in your own style" ![]() "Make it your own" ![]() "Put your own stamp on it" ![]() What would impress me would be if on X Factor you could only do your own tunes. |
