What s surprise, another cover.

This is an April Fools.

 

Not even Westlife are stupid enough to cover 'Candle In The Wind' - that song is so connected with the memory of Princess Diana that it would be almost sacreligious -_-

i don't think it's an april fool

Why are they covering a song written by Elton John and what is now seen as a tribute to Princess Diana? Surely they can't GENUINELY be intending on releasing this for their OWN profit and expect people to buy it // not raise an eyelid?

 

They DISGUST me.

Bull$h!t I presume. :rolleyes:

 

This better not be true. If it is then they should be ashamed. That song has never been performed by Elton once since he sang it at Diana's funeral. This is obviously out of respect for Diana, so there is no way he would let these moronic puppets use such a song :rolleyes:

they are irish, no respect for her. I heard they were asked to cover it.....

they are irish, no respect for her. I heard they were asked to cover it.....

 

As if. Who would be so deluded and ignorant to ask THEM to cover such a song? I mean other than louis of course. :rolleyes: No way would Elton allow them to cover it Charis. It's obviously an April Fools. :rolleyes:

IF this is true... then I'm surprised it took them until now to think of this one. :rolleyes:

Just because they're Irish Charis, doesn't mean they don't have respect for her. This was a worldwide smash for Elton for the very reason that it was performed at Diana's funeral.

 

Besides, their fanbase is British and they (we) most certainly DO have respect for her.

Yes, it is the biggest selling global single ever, so it's nothing to do with being British or not ffs. How silly -_-
