How Mad Is that I Hope He Gets Number 1 RIP Jeff xxx

NettoSuperstar! 18-12-2008 02:03 PM

Cmon man lets get him to number 1

GiRTh 18-12-2008 02:08 PM

I hope he does it.

tiernanp40 18-12-2008 02:08 PM

jeff buckly his version is better it is about an man and he really loves his girlfriend and every time he sees her he praises the lord :<)

Locke. 18-12-2008 02:08 PM

He has no chance on this earth of getting #1 this week.

Shaun 18-12-2008 02:12 PM

Dreadful as I may be, I prefer Alexandra's version. And Leonard Cohen's tbh.

NettoSuperstar! 18-12-2008 02:17 PM

Yes but shaun its not the point X factor wins every year we need sumthin else to win. And I do prefer Buckleys version

Shaun 18-12-2008 02:19 PM

So the great "alternative" to the most likely contender for No#1 is a previous version of the same song? Bit stupid if you ask me.

MarkWaldorf 18-12-2008 02:19 PM

He's actually #3, behind Leona.

XxShortyxX 18-12-2008 02:33 PM

Alex has sold 289.2k! and it will sell more, Alex will defo be Xmas number 1!

Locke. 18-12-2008 02:36 PM

I don't really understand it, people are complaining that there is no CHRISTMAS song as #1, so they download a non-christmas song to get christmas #1?

Just download the Darkness' Christmas Time (Don't let the bells end) instead.

Its just because some people are trying to get Alex's single down. Its a ridiculous attempt, because the xfactor sigle always beat other contenders by a lot for the christmas #1. But the best they can do is 2. SO good luck to them. Its not gonna stop the success of alex's

xDramatick 18-12-2008 02:45 PM

I hope this gets to number 2.

NettoSuperstar! 18-12-2008 03:37 PM

Theres a big campaign on facebook/radio 1.

The Darkness is poo and doesnt stand a chance

*mazedsalv** 18-12-2008 04:22 PM

Woohoo. I dont care which Hallelujah gets the Xmas #1, I love Alexandra, and Jeff's version of it is brilliant.

bluehill 18-12-2008 04:30 PM

well i am fed up with the x-factor so i think jeff or peter kay to be number one :laugh2: wouldnt that be funny

beanny 18-12-2008 04:53 PM

Dont care, i think Alex's version is better. Come on the BURKE!

M X 18-12-2008 04:54 PM

TBH - He had his day in music. Now let Alex have her success.

30stone 18-12-2008 04:58 PM

Pikeys have already started saying how amazing hallelujah is!!!

2 of my mates in gym when it come on going ohh this song is amazing, they thought it was the original i was like you 2 are *******... neither watch x factor tho.

bluehill 18-12-2008 05:04 PM

iv just been on itunes and there are two jeff buckly songs in the top 10 so if i-tunes puts them together jeff would be number one. :dance:

decdec456 18-12-2008 05:09 PM

Exactly what I was gonna say.

robb 19-12-2008 11:12 AM

Egghead's Hallowee'n Hallelujah version is the best.......

October brings me more success
I know Diana'a hair's a mess
But I don't really care,
You know that, do ya?....
Hallelujah,Halleluooooojah.....:kiss:

Please add your verses

Scarlett. 19-12-2008 11:16 AM

Come on Jeff!

Music snobbery.

Not really. My objection to Alex's version is the key change signalling the arrival of the big production. I think the song is a strong enough song not to have needed it. But it's like the producer read something like 'Power ballads for Dummies' and then followed it step by step. The Violins, the harps, the choir none of those were needed. That production could have been done on any piece of sh*t song but instead they decided to murder a much loved song. Surely they must realise some people were not going to like that.

True i see your point, just a shame people didnt do this with last years winner....

pinkmichk 19-12-2008 01:01 PM

i prefere jeffs version and downlaoded it this morning although i do like alexandras as well but jeff has the edge
on the tv last night they were saying its looking to be like the first time 2 versions of the same song make christmas 1 and 2 in the charts

robb 19-12-2008 03:40 PM

I don't know how I didn't win
All The Irish kept me in
And Louis Said,
You're in the Final
Ooh yah,
Hallelooyah,hallelooyah................

rayheartbliss 19-12-2008 03:54 PM

its the same song, so i dont mind which one would take the top spot.

Hugo 19-12-2008 03:56 PM

I want Jeff to get to #1 but I know its never going to happen so I'll still be happy with #2.

Emilee 27-12-2008 07:13 PM

Jeff Buckly is an amazing singer, his version is sooo good!
