…..and it’s the NIN version 😡

*launches pre-emptive nuke strike*

I’m not familiar with the song but my husband is not impressed and is actually looking quite distressed.

John Hurt? On telly? Blimey.

Sacrilege!!!

Who? What?

Thank god it’ll all be over soon.

I feel a little sick and distressed myself………….just wrong, wrong, wrong

it’ll all get better in time.

Sorry. IGMC

FFS.

Didn’t all the bed wetters get upset when she did Snow Patrol? Same when someone else did Hallelujah? And the fella that did that one last year?

I don’t really mind who covers what. Fair play to ’em for picking something different.

cah
one of my favs ruined
had to put JC on the laptop to make it all betterer.
who tf chose that for er on prime time tele , D’ya think she even knows what its about?

* realises this is an X Factor thread *

I’m boycotting the show since they got rid of Janet

X factor final elf.

Johnny Cash was absolutely appropriate but Leona Lewis …..FFS

Am not watching it on the TV but I’ve just found it on you tube… Could be a damn site worse, at least she can actually sing. She has also done Iris it would seem (Not had a chance to listen to that one though)

That’s better……

she has a lovely voice lol

Also at least she appears to actually have some real influences!!!

Assuming it’s not another spin off of Cowel’s drivel machine

Jesus. You lot sound like you actually own music. Get a grip.

OK , So we can have Sue Bo doing the Prodigy ‘Smack my Bitch up ‘..
S’Ok tho , she has a nice voice
aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Iris is ruined by the unnecessary instruments too.

Back to the now show for me.

I’m seriously bothered, I’m about to explode in an apoplexy of tirade and rage against the man that is killing music.

oh no, hang on, no I’m not. Tulisa is fit.

Why people watch if is not enjoy? 😕

one of my favs ruined

I use to think like that when I was a teenager.

You mention the Johnny Cash version. When NIN first came out with that, can you imagine their cry baby fans if they knew that an old C&W singer would make a more commercially successful go of it?

It’s like listening to students.

Some middle aged producer currently experiencing a mid life crisis obviously thought it would be ace. She either has no say or has no idea what suits.

The new nose didnt hold her back. Vanity and culture pillage ahoy

Oh hell yes. Christmas number one.

Ok
But even NIN acknowledge the JC version is a better adaptation of their song .
Dont think they will be saying the same thing about LL.
I just attempted to listen to Iris , made it to the chorus , sorry not for me .
As JC knew he was on the way out i dont think making a commercial success of it was in the forefront of his mind , maybe leaving a lasting impression on people perhaps

American Werewolf In London is on in my front room

“hi David”
“go away. you#re undead”

I’m just disappointed so many stw people are watching that guff

I didn’t know Johnny Cash had done a cover I’m just listening too it now, it’s pretty awesome.

I’ve always assumed that the NIN version was the original!! Am I wrong?

OK , So we can have Sue Bo doing the Prodigy ‘Smack my Bitch up ‘..

I would physically walk into a shop and buy that subo cd with my arms and real proper money.

YES. Dr. NIN did the orig , JC covered it 3 or 4 years later IIRC

I really liked the arrangement of the song, but her voice grates somewhat.

sc-xc – this might explain to you why myself and others are a little less than enthusiastic. Music is not always about commercial gain.

NIN is Trent Reznor.

Nope Dr NIN did the orig , JC covered it 3 or 4 years later IIRC

wrong again..
try 15 years later.

Its a song about Heroin addiction. I love the fact Leona is so open.

FFS,
Not a fan of Keith Lemon then?

Had to play the Cash version to the bread knife after I went mental at her watching this crap.

tbh I thought the Cash version was his originally, thanks for posting that NIN version.

I hate Xfactor, but with wives and daughters in-house, I get aurally raped every week (spend the time online so only hear it)

Hence the SMACKmy bitch up Sue Bo comment .
