This is why music is so great, everyone has different opinions!! Some people just view songs differently. I'm not saying the original isn't amazing because I loved their version until I heard this one!
To the lady who said this is better than the original. They didn't write it though.. I don't understand the logic. The main talent in music are the people who write the songs. Anyone can play guitar but it takes a true musician to be able to write original music. That's why none of this X-factor bull actually works, these people are basically doing a bit of karaoke every weekend on TV. This is just a cover that sounds exactly like the original which to me defeats the entire purpose of a cover but anyway
Number 1: This cover sounds a good bit different and is made using different instruments than Elbow. Number 2: Just because somebody wrote a song doesn't make their version sound any better. Sure, Trent Reznor deserves credit for writing Hurt, but I would much rather listen to Johnny Cash's version every day of the week, and I'm willing to bet that you would too. Personally, I don't get the LOGIC that a piece of music sounds better when it's played by the original artist. That doesn't make sense. Number 3: Wtf has the X-Factor got to do with anything? Number 4: Covers are great because they put a different spin on songs we all know, or bring songs from one genre to another. Get over yourself and your superior bullshit.
LOL, what the hell are you talking... So if i play something which is crated by someone else I can't be musician? So, if i play, for example, pieces by mozart or someone else, I'm not musician? You must be kidding -.-
So u believe that people who are musicians can only play their own songs to be a good musician? Do u think that the best singers and guitar players are only good because they "wrote" their own music? No. They are good because they are able to play songs like this that, to be honest, are fairly challenging to make them your own like these have.
returning to this song every once in a while. Wish the newer tracks would be a bit more rough like this one is. Never the less I'm digging them.
