# Some bird's covered hallelujah.
I haven't heard it, and I hope I don't. Jeff's version is too beautiful for words, and I really don't want to listen to this girl's version in case it's popped up to the nines.

Plus I have no idea why it needed to be done. Is she some illiterate that can't write her own songs?

# To be honest with you,
it did seem a lot more like the original when I heard it the once.

# I don't think they did a bad job with this one
considering Jeff's version is a cover too.. and he's dead anyway.

At least it wasn't the other version replete with R Kelly style grunts - that one was fucking dreadful.

Specifically to upset those that get sniffy about these sorts of things.

Not that you'd believe it the way of the geeks in my office are going on about it.

# I just wish these new kids'd at least make their first release an original.
Obviously it'll probably still be generic toss (Hello Leona) but at least it'd be a start.

# No one likes to be challenged when they relax.
It's a lot easier to digest a reworking of something familiar than concentrate on something entirely new.

# i don't get why
they have 12 shows, surely they just need one, open the phone lines and whoever gets the most votes is the winner?

# They'd not make nearly enough money
and it wouldn't be a long enough distraction from everything for the easily led proles.

Really it should be called 'never mind war and famine, here's teenagers honking'
