The X Factor's Marcus Collins to release cover of The White Stripes' 'Seven Nation Ar
 
With everybody expecting to release a Motown cover or a soul classic he's set to release an indie classic. He's taking one hell of a chance.

It's getting very mixed reviews from critics apparently.

I'm excited.

Mystic Mock 26-01-2012 05:20 PM

I'm interested to see if he can do it good,but he should be careful that he doesn't go down the road of other X Factor contestants and just release covers.

I want some original material.

Why does it say Gary Barlow on this?

Mystic Mock 26-01-2012 05:32 PM

Lol at all the comments on the site.

They're indie hipsters... they aren't going to like some guy from the X Factor singing a song like that. Personally I love White Stripes and Marcus, so I'm interested to listen in the morning.

I agree,tbh I think he will do it quite good and he will probably change these people's minds as the only way is up.

Mystic Mock 11-03-2012 02:33 AM

I haven't listened to it yet,is it a good or bad cover?

Jordan. 11-03-2012 02:37 AM

It's awful and I'm fed up of hearing it all over the place :bored:

Mystic Mock 11-03-2012 02:40 AM

Ok thanks Jordan,I will still give it a listen though.

Mystic Mock 11-03-2012 05:16 PM

I've listened to it and I liked it,it's gonna be a grower I think.

Roy Mars III 11-03-2012 05:20 PM

terrible

Marc 11-03-2012 05:34 PM

Awful. Terrible. Ridiculous. Disgusting. Bad. Horrendous

Black Dagger 11-03-2012 05:57 PM

Fantastic, amazing, brilliant, fabulous, stunning, genius, wonderful

No it's ****ing tripe, but Marcus Collins is fabulous and I have to support him, his other songs >

Mystic Mock 15-03-2012 12:00 AM

No offence Black Dagger but he could have done better in the charts.

King Gizzard 15-03-2012 12:04 AM

I really don't see why people thought it was that bad. I didn't like it, but it wasn't as awful as people were making out

I think it's because the song is so popular that his version had to be special to just even be half liked by people,that's just my opinion anyway.

Brother Leon 15-03-2012 12:13 AM

Didn't he get top 10?


that's still a top 10 more than the winners or anyone else(Don't count the winners single) and this was probably something far away from the sound he wants to make. They were all **** this season, but he seems a cool guy so good luck I guess.

I agree that it wasn't the best of years but I like to give every X Factor singer a fresh start when they start making Music.

I think #9 is stunning, I'd have been worried for him if it didn't chart in the top 30 with it being his debut single

Hopefully the album sells just as well.

Mystic Mock 15-03-2012 08:55 PM

Fair enough but I think Marcus can do better than that.

joeysteele 16-03-2012 08:39 AM

I think Marcus has the talent to do really well in the future. Good luck to him.
I thought he was consistent on X Factor and may end up one of the better acts to come from it.
