What the hell did I just watch? :lol:

When is this comic relief single getting released then? Or is it not?

 

It flopped :o

How can a song flop if it wasn't released?

 

I am disappointed with it anyway, I was hoping for a more melodic, less minimal garage tune rather than an instrumental similar to Stormzy's Big for Your Boots.

It was always going to be one big joke, not sure why you were expecting more :P

 

PS it is terrible!

I don't mind humorous lyrics, but I was hoping the instrumental was going to be a good garage track, but the instrumental really turned out a bit like the instrumental of a Stormzy track but more repetitive and less interesting.

Funny to see the collective sense of humour failure here... it's just a very jokes comedy sketch. :lol:

Yeah it's fine as that but I wouldn't buy it to listen to it for it's musical merit :lol:

I wonder why the release was reported and then didn't happen though.... :unsure:

Perhaps it was only ever going to be a sketch and not a single. Is the normal Ed version now the CR single?

Doing very well!

07. Katy Perry - Chained To The Rhythm

11. Kygo & Selena Gomez - It Ain't Me

25. Little Mix - No More Sad Songs

 

I think charity singles can pretty much be consigned to history now, while this made for a funny sketch, it wouldn't have really worked as a lasting chart hit, it's very much a joke that wears thin by the second listen.

 

I reckon it would have charted at about #15 officially at best (it made almost no impact on iTunes on the fortunes of What Do I Know), so there hardly seems any point releasing it. They'd make precious little for the charity from the download and nobody would buy that on CD. It's amusing as a skit, and did it's job to raise money during the show, but better to remember it as a funny sketch than a flop single.

Somebody is performing Human on The Voice. It's NEVER going to f*** off is it?

It seems such a missed opportunity though, Kurupt FM could have made a better, more melodic garage tune to go along with the humorous lyrics rather than just a repetitive bassline and beat and bring garage back into the charts.
