Its ok, they played it on the radio about half an hour ago, but dont think its as good as the original , the singing maybe ok but i dont like the new instrumentals


...what do you think??

 

Agree its not as good as the original.

 

rapping in it?

 

At least they've tried to make it different ... but the first one was so significant that makes it damn hard to follow! Not sure about the Dizzy Rascal bit - I like his normal stuff - but his lines don't seem to fit! And The Darkness on guitars ... euewwww!

I'll still buy it though!

 

Not as good as the original..... the new one doesnt seem to fit that well together, musically it sounds thin... Bono's bit isnt as powerful as the first one.

But at least there's people out there having a go for a good cause..

so yeh, i'll buy it

 

IT IS BLOODY ATROCIOUS.

Sounds out of tune, got some bad-boy wannabee rapping halfway through it and some stupid sound effects and instrumentals.

I was cringing this morning listening to it. For the first time in my life I would have preferred to listen to fat **** Moyles shouting his head off rather than listening to that garbage.

 

Its a battle of ego's, various people trying to make their contibution heard. Awful, awful, awful. Regardless of the good cause I will not buy that piece of crap.

 

I have not heard it (the new one)

but

even though its for a good cause and all I cannot sanction having a CD in my house that not only features will young, but also busted, blobbie williams and not one but TWO bedINGfields !

its not gonna happen

I would rather give the money direct to charity (which is what all the millionaire 'pap' stars would do if they really cared)

IMHO of course - and I am probably in a minority

 

load of crap being spouted of as normal...i suppose the original with bananarama, boy george and wham (oh...and status quo!) was picking the cream from modern music 20 years ago!

 

Got to admit not anyway near as good as the original but its for charity & they made an effort, but that rapping bit ................. not my cup of tea

 

don't know why they couldn't write a new song rather than murder the original onder2:

still it's for a good cause so I'll probably buy it and make the kids pretend it's theirs.

 

What a mess !

 

if you want to support a "good cause", why not give a few quid directly to a charity, rather than buying this PoS?

 

I'm sick to death of it and I haven't even heard it yet.

 

moron idea alert.

14 year old kids wont give money to charity to help starving africans.

14 year old kids will buy this.

T

 

Moron reply alert.

I wasn't addressing 14 year old kids - i was addressing people here who said they would buy the record even though it is of dubious artistic merit, simply because it's "for a good cause".

hth.

 

hmmmm......the difference being????

 

ok - you've got me there.

 

Gotta echo what others were saying it sounded fine till that ****** rascal ******** made a racket.

 

I thought it was OK, nothing great but bit of a half ar$ed attempt if u ask me, if they wanted to do it like it was originally done they should have all got together and sung it together and maybe sung a different song, something some effort had gone into. I honestly started laughing when Dizzee rascal started rapping..lmao

Loved this one:
"We could always make a donation to our local radio stations for them NOT to play it!"

 

Sounds like some bad instrumental version being sung over - something you'd get in Phoenix Nights.

 

Just heard this tune, absolute dog pile

 

asnywhere you can here it in full.
not kazaa lite,just tried that?

 

Too much talent & all that & they completed massacred it, probably a reflection of the World we live in today (sounds a bit philisophical that)

Errr its crap.....let's hope U2's new album is better.....

 

thing about the original was it was a group of artists came together to sing a soung that sounded like a song, this 1 sounds like a song butchered by around 5 different styles of music so all the artists can stamp there own patch on it IMO really cr@p

 

R1, moyles show 8am today

 

Sorry guys it's ****e, they should have written a new song instead of digging up an old one
Cheers

Dizzee Rascal. FFS the bloke's a complete and utter gobsh!te. Rap? With a silent 'C' for sure.

His new single's a feckin joke while we're at it and this bloke won an award last year!

Sounds like my dad, pissed, trying to rap. Completely ruined any chance they had for the single to grow on people because that rapping is so sh!te!

 

to be fair I like Dizzee's new song, think his music is 10x better than GLC. just sounds appauling on this band aid track
