December 14, 201014 yr anything but the xfactor. ideally i would like coldplay-christmas lights to be no1 as its a proper original xmas song.everytime i hear people going on about how great the song is it annoys me to think those same people ignored it in january when it reached no20 in the uk chart and yet now act as if they love it because someone whos been on tv for the past 12 weeks is singing his version of it - typical of people who watch shows like the xfacotr i suppose.

Not really any interest in buying a song which I bought originally in January when the EP was released on ITunes just to "stop" another version of the same song getting to No1 because it's an inferior version. The song was A-Listed on Radio 1 and Radio 2 and was promoted enough for it to enter higher than it did but these "campaign" people obviously didn't bother to download it and now it's "we must do this to stop this song" but they say it's to promote Biffy's creativity rather than stop Cowell and his song. Personally I don't really think it's a Biffy classic song and I usually download the EPs so I can get the Biffy b-sides which are usually quite good so I'm not too bothered about the song being covered. The guy seems a nice guy even if his voice doesn't seem right for the song and that key change which just cheapens the song but I'm quite glad that they've decided to use a good song for once compared to the sort of thing XF usually covers the only thing I can say is it's going to be a very nice Xmas for Simon Neil and his family, the amount of royalities should be very nice indeed ;)
