Marti Pellow - Love Is All Around

[kryton38]

gomarti pellow is wow gn still strng since iwre 40 nw 51 gn on 52 septemperb

[SunnBurn]

The original Troggs version is one of my favorite songs ever. This version is wet, wet, wet, and that is being kind. It mimics the original arrangement but is over killed with needless excesses. It reminds me of the kind of garbage you hear when stuck on an elevator or in crummy lounge act.

At least the REM version brings something different to the party. This version is far inferior to the original.

[2edgarcalderon]

Excelente interpretación, una de las mejores canciones en Inglés que conozco.

[PerryMarlin]

I liked it, I didnt think it was that popular, but browsing YT, I found many versions of this song, Even I did it...lol...

[Aussiephil99]

Wet Wet Wet....possible the worst British band in history........nearly as bad as Savage Garden form Australia

[Sjonne]

I'm a Troggs fan and I love Wet Wet Wet and The Troggs version. Reg Presley singer in The Troggs has written it

[RosesNightengales]

The only time i heard this song was in Love Actually so this is the first time I heard the original lol.

[karosh9]

Still the man! but without the band :-( Still the voice! Still the song! But not upto the original! But marti still rocks!!!

[proudpurple23]

This is such a melodramatic version of a simple love song -- sometimes if you cannot improve on a song - DON'T DO A COVER VERSION - much like Faith Hill and her cover version of Take A Piece of My Heart by Janice Joplin -- Don't do it!

[dideililalup]

REM is 10000 times better than this faggot O.O

[ZanderZavier]

one word...crap Go listen to REM and the Troggs...there is no comparison 

[0zonnebloem]

BEAUTIFUL.

[extinguishersoul]

this guy sucks schlong

[waltob9]

Soul-less. Not unique like the original. If you like lounge - lizard vocal stylings, you will like this better. They took a classic rock 'n' roll ballad and did it like a karaoke version. It's like prefering Sinatra's version of "Something" to the Beatles' version: retarded !

[hc2333]

Really don't like this version, Troggs best, REM not bad.

[MrCharles0723]

AMAZING VOICE...............MILLIONS TIMES BETTER THAN THE TROGGS........THOSE WHO SAY HE ISNT MUST BE TONE DEAF!!!!

[SkitztSpork]

Ugh. Horrid.

Can't compare to the original. Hell, even Wet Wet Wet covered it better.

[KomradStudios]

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG..... x 10000000 and more..... i cant believe it was possible spread such a shit from mouth!! O_O REM & TROGGS FTW!

[noblealvin]

This guys attitude is terrible as if his the original.

[MRLIZAUD]

WTF IS THIS CRAP...TROGGS DID IT BEST

[BNPhx]

Nice, but not as good as the full Wet Wet Wet version. Marti Pellow is the epitome of sexy! Wow!

[XEuphoricXNightmareX]

I prefer R.E.M.'s cover better but this one is okay I guess..

[nunzioforpresident]

awful

[skierbarry]

elvis1053 - I disagree. Marti indeed has a great voice but his version is showmanship and not emotion. I'm not criticizing it but in comparison to the Troggs I feel the Troggs version is more basic, and heartfelt. I truly get the feelilng the singer is in love with the woman he is singing about. Comments everyone?

[trakkaton]

Wet Wet Wet should have been a Metalcore band. That would have been the only way to top themselves.

[coutnall14]

Yeah, Pellow is a great singer. This is way better than The Troggs. What a great voice. Even with that Godzilla background vocalist. LOL.

[containstracesofnuts]

@coutnall14 That Godzilla is hot!

[elvis1053]

Wonderfull, Marti pellows version way better than the troggs, more feeling and hes gorgeous

[pompenel]

J'adore, quelle voix !!!!!

[sitiomaldito]

this is the guy from Wet Wet Wet ?

[1956KP]

This runs a distance 3rd to the original and the cover by REM.

At least the other guys can play instruments

[pixithemis]

it sures is not as good as the original or the rem but its not that awfull...

[ansonia1976]

How the hell is this guy? He really beats up this tune...

[Krauz85]

You are kidding me right???

[ansonia1976]

No, who is he? I really like this tune by the Troggs and he f*cks it up...is this that British American Idol show?

[jamestoni]

lol, Thats Marty pellow!!! That tune was number 1 in britain for 16 weeks running. He done it with the biggest band in Britain in the late 80s and 90s.

[willingslave123]

Wow, I love this version! I think this is what inspired the Love Actually thing.

[elkydosser]

My mam loves Marti pellow

[Declan1205]

that's kool hat he came out from the closet.

[106shazz]

I think Marti is great he done well to come out all go Marti

[Garris13]

What a tool... destroyed a masterpiece, I'll listen to the original over this anyday.

[Krauz85]

You are hopefully kidding? Learn to know who the hell sigs the original before trash talking this guy!!! its the same person.. christ...

[andruarez]

well, regardless of what version you like ... marti pellow and wet wet wet COVERED this song

the original is by The Troggs and they came out with it in 1967

[123losvas]

mooi

[frfhkfghuk]

Meu Deus!!! Que coisa linda!! Esse car é demais!!! Que tudo!!! Marti, eu te amo!!!

I LOVE YOU!!!

[glennsmoke]

3:22 the guy in the middle looks like a cage fighter than a backup singer. ü

[CSAMSA]

indeed LOOOOOOOOOOOL

omg.

anyway, love is all around! amazing song.

[GluteusMaximised]

he looks like the incredible hulk pretending to be a backup singer....I bet he was growling and snarling all the way through that performance!

[charles43110]

Most cover arrangements are weak because they do not give you another unique "take" on a song that some group of people who like certain sounds can hear and appreciate in an unusual COVER.

This is an incredible cover. Great vocals, different phrasing delivery, that guitar speaks to an audiance that likes a more edgy sound. I do not know the promotion effort done in the USA however they should have mass released this arrangement to radio. This cover could have gotten alot of airplay. NICE

[doglover132]

i think he's great - he's lucky to be alive though after his drug abuse.

[KezzaHibbs]

i went to see him in witches of eastwick at norwich a couple of months ago and he was soooo good it cost us £50 to get back but we didn't care because we couldnt miss him for the woooorld!!

[preineder12]

das lied müssma in da schule singen

so scheiße

[soulfreeek]

Also this guy uses a stratocaster, when i've only ever seen Greame duffin use a strat once...and never on this song!

[nick7sikkema]

Les paul is a good guitar for this song.

[nick7sikkema]

A full band and orchestra does not beat Wet Wet Wet, sounds excellent nontheless but its just not the same.

[soulfreeek]

No way - Greame's Guitar technique is SO different to this particular session musician!
