Xmas is getting closer and I remembered that there would be the release of Angels cover by that British girlband. So, is it already being played in the UK, who has heard it ... ? :unsure:

I'm not sure I want to hear it, even if it's not that bad. You can call me biased or stubborn but Angels is sacrilegious to me, it's just not right that anyone else should sing this (or at least not release it as a single).

I know it's for charity but to be honest I wouldn't want it to get to no. 1, Rob himself never got that although Angels is undoubtedly his biggest hit, so I think in a way it would p*** me off if that girlband got to no. 1 with it. The young kiddies probably won't even know it was originally by RW. :cry:

No kidding, I mean it is a new generation, the song will be 10 years old next year. Can hardly believe it's been that long. :o

 

I think in the week of the single release every UK fan should download the RW version of Angels.

And I'd like to spread that on other fan boards as well. Who's up for it ?

 

 

i have no idea, but after jessica simpson destroyed angels im not keen on hearing another cover

No doubt...I gave her the benefit of the doubt until she butchered Angels. Now she can bite me.

 

:arrr:

Was it not some kids choir who were covering it? :unsure:

Its by All Angels . I love choral music, but hate these crossover acts.

 

Four girls all aged 16 and 17, All Angels bring a fresh new sound - and a bright new look - to classical crossover music, with a repertoire spanning classical, choral, opera and pop.

They obvioulsy don't want anyone to hear Angels yet, even though it is only a couple of weeks away from release. I think it will be a double A , with Silent Night.

Even the clip of their last single on myspace is very short. Hardly a good way to gain exposure for your music?

(I finally got Angels into our Christmas nativity this year ...... was played as the angels walked from back of hall and onto stage ....awwww)

Great work ICR. Brainwashing must start as early as possible. ^_^

I do my best ;)

Well, that way it will hardly get to no. 1. Apparently their PR is as good as Robbie's ... :lol:

 

I'm not interested in another Angels cover, after Jessica Simpson. :puke2:

 

Nobody can't sing it like Robbie, and that's it... -_- :wub:

All Angels: 'Angels'

Released on Monday, December 18 2006

 

By Miriam Zendle, Music Reporter

 

All Angels are a classical girlgroup, and as such, it's pretty much a necessity that they have great voices with wide ranges. Their new single, released in conjunction with the Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal, certainly shows that off, but at the same time, makes a travesty of one of the most popular songs of the past decade.

 

The girls' Enya-esque version of the Robbie Williams hit 'Angels' is nothing less than well-sung, but the decision to add the echo to their voices, swinging the song from being truly emotional and heartfelt to a rather depressingly cheesy and numbing sentiment instead. For a classical girlgroup, too, it seems a rather strange choice to have picked, but it seems much more likely to hit number one than if they had released a bit of Faure or Vivaldi as their song of choice!

 

'Angels' is a pretty version of the original, but it simply can't match up emotionally, and though the girls sound great, the overproduction on their voices is totally unnecessary and loses the essence of the song.

 

3/5

:cry:

:cry:

:puke2:

 

 

I really don't think I want to hear this :wacko:

I liked Jessica's version ^_^

You would. :rolleyes:

I liked Jessica's version ^_^

 

You should be ashemed :puke2:

 

That is the single more horrible, insulting cover of ANY song in HISTORY. Westlife would've done a better job -_-

 

 

I saw the video for these All Angels singing 'Angels on TV tonight. :puke2:

Why do they even try :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I liked Jessica's version ^_^

 

You lie and you know that. -_- http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/frech/a056.gif

No seriously, but the main part I like her is because of watching her in the vid :wub:

She looked stunning :wub:
