Jeff Buckley for Xmas Number One

[danny la rouge]

You may be right but the song itself is also crap.

No it isn't.

 

[Idris2002]

Leonard's a man, Buckley was a boy.

Don't send a boy to do a man's job.

 

[skyscraper101]

Well I like it

 

[mwgdrwg]

The trend of 2008 has to be every thread on Urban being full of posters going on and on about how shit a particular thing under discussion is.

I avoid threads about things I think are shit, and enjoy reading about stuff that I like instead.

Cheer up you miserable cunts!

 

[N_igma]

No it isn't.

Well I think it is. Never really "got" Cohen although I can see how others do like him.

 

[gabi]

Buckley's version is far superior IMO.

Fuck I hate facebook tho. Sheep.

People need to call everything shit and moan about stuff and things becuase it makes them feel better about themself.

sad but true, it's the british way.

Only 2008?

 

[joustmaster]

wasn't it Rufus Wainwright that made this song most popular?

 

[El Jefe]

erm.

no.

 

[joustmaster]

erm.

no.

i mean for the majority of your xfactor crowd.

 

[El Jefe]

then Shrek.

which is John Cale's version

 

[cliche guevara]

then Shrek.

which is John Cale's version

Not on the OST iirc.

 

[joustmaster]

is it? i though it was Rufus Wainwright that did the shrek version.

 

[cliche guevara]

Allegedly Cohen prefers Buckley's version.

 

[El Jefe]

Not on the OST iirc.

ah, is it Cale on the film, Wainwright on the album? or the other way round?

 

[cliche guevara]

ah, is it Cale on the film, Wainwright on the album? or the other way round?

I think you're right. Something to do with a conflict of interests for Cale's label, I believe.

 

[danny la rouge]

ah, is it Cale on the film, Wainwright on the album?

Yes.

 

[bluestreak]

I love how facebook groups think they have some sort of grass roots power. What the fuck have they ever done? other than get exploited by guerilla marketing for whispa and organise a twattish tube party. Their like a lame version of Anonymous

Innit. And yet the idiots don't learn.

 

[Tank Girl]

sadly there is a facebook campaign to get rick astley to beat the x factor winner to christmas no. 1

 

[Silva]

anyway these are all started by some cunt who works in the music business or something anyway if you ask me...

This. They probably ran out of shit excuses to make a new compilation based on the gigantic output of 1 finished album and lots of unfinished tracks.

Isn't there also one for Terry Wogan and Aled Jones doing Little Drummer Boy?

 

[Fuzzy Dunlop]

How rude!

 

[themonkeyman]

bring back Ice Ice Baby by Vanilla Ice, now that is a true classic.

None of this Buckley crappola

 

[Voley]

I think that tiny little child off the X Factor should have a crack at this one:

I can just imagine him singing:

"Im Shaun William Ryder / Lie down beside ya / Fill you full of junk"

[Taxamo Welf]

Cohen's is better.

yes but Jeff Buckley did it recenter and better looking

that is a TOTALLY DIFFERENT THING.

Rolling people is part 'fuck you all with your bread a circuses' and part 'this is a silly internet joke and we want to see how ridiculously big we can make it'.

Brought to you by the people that voted Madeleine Mcanne Sexiest Woman of the Year 2007 in Kerrangs online poll.

I'm not sure this is a decent incarnation of the Astley thing though.

rickrolling christmas would indeed be epic
