Default Band Aid 20--you views on the new track

Heard it today on Radio 1 and i think that it is VERY good.

Same as the original but different enough to make it in todays music chart

I didnt think Dizzy Rascals rap would work when i heard he was doing it, but it does IMHO

All for a good cause too

You can hear it on the Chris Moyles page.

Play today's show and skip forward an hour to hear it.

Personally I wasnt that impressed. Much prefer the original.

Still buy it though as its for charadee.

It's shit compared to the first one (which still sends tingles down my spine and makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end). However, worthy cause and all that, but still not upto the best the 80's could muster - but still better than the second one .

Well, we have no shortage of 'artists' who turn out complete shit on a regular basis and sell it, so I don't suspect that they'll pass up this opportunity to saturate the market with garbage.

I'm not a great fan of the new single to be fair, mind you, I didn't like it that much the first time round. I think it's a good way of raising money for charity I just think they should have started from scratch.
Your cash will be in your pocket for a long time then Knife, it'll get worse before it gets better

my sentiments entirely, if the bunch of no marks singing are so concerned about africa why dont they stump up the cash instead of the rest of the under paid over taxed population.

I thought it was complete and utter tosh tbh.

I love the original, and as someone said above, it still send a tingle down ya spine.

It just goes to show that in todays day and age they have to copy and re-do other peoples work, because none of them have got a thread of talent to write something of that caliber themselves.

If it aint broke, dont try to fix it!

Its truly horrible.

The original was performed and sung with abit of heart and feeling, this new un comes across as a publicity stunt for those who sing in it.

I make better noises dropping Mr. Brown and his family off at the pool
