Gawd 'elpus....

[red]

is it any good? cant be bothered to look it up

[Livia]

Well, the original is great. But I imagine by the time they've overproduced the charity single and shot the video with them all gurning earnestly into the camera, it'll make me want to throw up.

[Beastie]

Shaun will hit the roof! lol

[Tom4784]

I'll get the valium ready for Shaun.

It's gonna be godawful, it's gonna be all key changes and gospel choirs... It makes me ill to think about it.

[Mystic Mock]

[BB_Eye]

Lol, charity singles.

They should have covered the Stranglers No More Heroes Anymore. Perhaps next year.

Or perhaps Holding Out For A Hero. Or Billy Don't Be A Hero. Or We Don't Need Another Hero ....

This is actually my favourite Bowie song along with Life on Mars and Absolute Beginners. Like you I hope they don't overproduce it and keep as near to its original sound as possible.

[Crimson Dynamo]

It will be beaten by 4 mins 33 seconds of silence (cage against the machine)

for real

[Stacey.]

I've never heard of this song before, but I'll buy it whatever.

[Shaun]

[Strictly Jake]

make you feel my love would have been a much better choice. And the charity should be help the aged

[MTVN]

The charity songs are always awful, doesnt stop them going straight in at number 1 though.

You're talking to Stacey.x. She probably couldn't name 3 Beatles.

[MTVN]

In fairness I haven't ever heard of it before. I know of a couple of his songs - Changes, Life On Mars & Space Oddity - but not this one.

Just because I don't have the music taste of a 72yr old.

[Braden]
