I've listened to it twice now but can't hear Mel anywhere, which is weird as she has one of the most distinctive pop voices I know.

Really? I've heard her at least twice.

0.33

1.50 ish u can hear her clearly

There's too many people on the track for everyone to get a decent share. Rebecca Ferguson and Paloma Faith seem to appear on half the song though.

Rebecca Ferguson is a Goddess ❤️

The Oasis version is on another level and I'm not even a big Liam Gallagher fan however his voice was haunting on that track.

:wub:

 

I think it's nice enough, it's basically the same song with different voices. Like that Melanie get's quite a few appearances in the video :wub:

Really cheap. Karaoke all over it.

The song is absolutely terrible, but the video is quite cute. That's all I have to say about this lol

Basic arrangement and much superior versions by Oasis and Leona kind of ruin it for me, but I guess there are no big expectations here. It's just very lazy when they cobble these things together for charity, and the format (1000 people singing a line each) has kind of lost its appeal, in my opinion.

Melanie's vocals in the song and appearances in the video:

There's only 8,000 copies between this at #1 and Billie Ellish at #2 today... with this doing nothing on Streaming it isn't going to reach #1 sadly so no new record for Mel :cry:

 

I don't get why there wasn't a physical released to supermarkets I mean if anything can sell now in physicals it's charity singles... stick them on every till a ton of people will pop it in their basket to donate a few pounds to charity.

Oops corrected :lol:

I kinda realize these things are more meant to be bought than actually listened to. It's for a good cause, and I'm certainly not going to take away from that. And I guess the thought is...by including this many big artists, they can get some sales from a whole lot of different fanbases.

 

But. Y'know. These sorts of singles tend to get released...and then promptly disappear like they never happened.

 

I always think...would the single not actually sell more for the cause if they scaled it down and made it a duet between, say, just Cher and Kylie?

What if it goes to numba 1!!!!? This counts towards Melanie C #1s?

This is why I never give these releases any time of the day. The way the UK does charity is beyond appauling, with a 'this will do' type of attitude, and it is really reflected in these type of releases.

 

Like, just because it is for charity, it doesnt mean it has to be shite. Put some f***ing effort into it, you know?

I agree but I still hope it’s numba 1

I agree but I still hope it’s numba 1

Me too 🤞
