Tartan_Glasto Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 11 hours ago, Zac Quinn said: I'm usually firmly in the 'you're entitled to your opinion' camp but no no no and more no. Everything that could possibly be wrong with a cover is wrong with that cover - it's by a Simon Cowell talent show alumni, it's more successful and acknowledged than the original, people think it was written by him not Robyn, it completely misses the self-empowerment subtext of the original and turns it into a funeral march about feeling sorry for yourself, the fact it's been an important gay anthem for years but now straight people are appropriating it, the fact he has the most annoying 'singing' voice since the invention of singing, it's just horrendous Also as a side note he copied the arrangement from a YouTube cover so he deserves no 'credit' for that either, please and thank you. Plus he doesn't even attempt the Robyn dance! Amateur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Everytime someone shit either says, does or sings something shit, you have a drink. You'll be drunk in no time. It's the only way you'll get through the evening.

fatyeti24 Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 Bit weird that in 2017 we still have awards for music decided by gender. I bet we don't in five years time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BRits is the kind of thing where you imagine that if there weren't specific categories for women then women would just get totally ignored (e.g. look at this year's Best Album nominees ffs), from that perspective I don't know that it'd be such a good thing for it to be a free for all tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
