Lucy top 20?! Wasn't expecting that :lol:

Because they're the same song... :P

What's the difference between that and Perfect (Remix) and Perfect (Acoustic)? You're getting upset about the lack of parentheses?

The new Perfect mix really is awful. Andrea Bocelli doesn’t fit with the song at all. Can’t see it making much difference for Ed.

the new version with andrea bocelli is very appealing... if you're 75 years of age ;)

Even with the Strictly performance?

That Lucy Spraggan song is hilarious, how does she do so well initially.

 

Quiet week as expected, liking the Grey & Camila song.

so looks like no adele :/

She has an extremely loyal (but small) fan base who preordered prior to release. Sadly, she’ll drop soon. :(

All solid points.

 

I felt uncomfortable listening to it, Andrea Bocelli does not belong on this song. The production isn't bad, but I'd much prefer the Beyonce version vocals with the Anrea Bocelli version production :lol:

Edited December 15, 20177 yr by Dexton

It's just a joke how many versions of Perfect are being released. I've actually grown to like the original version of the song but lots of things put me off. Ed's insistence that it's the best song he's done (it's not), his desperation at getting Christmas number one, his pronounication of the word grass (okay I'll let him off with that last bit).

 

Weird he hasn't got a choir version yet......maybe saving that for next Christmas?
