thats mine and my gf song..... when i was in Iraq and Afghanistan i listened to that song so much and when your over there you want to hear something soothing and that was def the song to listen to... calms your nerves to damn much ahhhhh
I hope that Cheryl gets back to embracing this persona instead of obsessed with breaking into the US market. With Snow Patrol, she sounds incredible and he is consistently amazing.
I miss this Cheryl! I used to be such a huge fan...now all she wants is to become huge in the states and looking as small as she can get! This is proof she was amazing before Will.i.Am...
Anyone who says she can't sing this clearly proves them wrong and she isn't miming ... Also check out her live performance on x factor 2011 'promise this' it's amazing
Cheryl's voice does not suit this song yes she can sing but, it would have been a better vocal harmony if she had sung a key higher, at times her voice was lower than his and it just didn't sound right to me, however it was a good performance there were no major issues and yes she could have had better chemistry on stage during the duet
I like the version with Martha Wainwright more. In my opinion she sings the song in a more sensitive way, like it should be. Cheryl has a nice voice aswell, but its not the same :)
Thing is, Gary is trying to connect with Cheryl, but she's only connecting to the microphone. :)) This song is very emotional and I feel like Cheryl thinks she's alone on the stage. She completely ingores Gary. And I don't think their voices suit, because Gary's voice is wonderful, but Cheryl just can't sing. It's time to accept that she is pitch deaf. :)) <3 Snow Patrol!
best I have ever heard Cheryl sing...Snow Patrol are amazing as always too and Cheryl sounds amazing too...shes such a amazing woman though! :) love this duet so much x
I hate how she's trying so hard to sound good that she's just standing there doing nothing. She never really gets into the music and thats why she always sounds shit. Love Gary Lightbody though.
Gary Lightbody is beside himself standing there fidgeting all over the place with the beautiful Cheryl Cole singning with him, its great, she really has him...
Just listened to the original with Martha Wainright. My goodness there is no competition, this version far exceeds the original. I'm deeply amused by the lead singers change in style. Middle age creeping up so the new look! Serious muso, with a beautiful woman to boot!! I do hate to critise but Miss wainright does the original song no favours.
Like Martha's voice better in this song, since it sounds like she's trying less hard.. if that makes sense:P Still love seeing this song live, rarely ever happens!
I love Cheryl Cole, I've never seen her perform like this,
anyone who's saying she's singing with no meaning knows nothing, I've never seen Cheryl so indepth with a performance before, and one of my favourite performances by her,
I've never really liked Snow Patrol, but Gary is also an outstanding performer.
But Martha's voice compliments his so well in tone, you can also see that she entirely pours herself into the song in the live version (which Gary always does)
Also the fact that her Canadian accent works with the whole meaning of the song being about a long distance relationship
I'm not a huge Snow Patrol fan however I thought the original version was beautiful. Why mess with that. I wouldn't be surprised if Cheryl Cole didn't even know who Snow Patrol were prior to this.
Cheryl is not the best of singers..& apparently she was going to mime this one out, but Gary & the boys weren't having any of it .would you blame them....:)
Cheryl is not the best of singers..& apparently she was going to mime this one out, but Gary & the boys weren't having any of it .would you blame them....:)
Brilliant! What a performance! The way that both voices of different tones resonate is pure bliss. Cheryl Cole....WOW! And all for a good cause. Push peace and love. Keep the fire lit.
I'm the biggest Cheryl fan, I adore her but I think even she will admit shes not the strongest singer but this is FANTASTIC she should stick to singing in this range more often it shows off the lovely tone in her voice and rather than sounding like an average singer on other songs here she sounds amazing
We're an independent label trying to make it in this game and the best way to do that is by being more known on youtube.One of the ways we stand out is we help unsigned artists get more fans by uploading their songs for a new fan base

Shes got a sweet tone in her voice. Why does everybody think you have to sound like Whitney fucking Houston be a singer? She's not trying to be everyones cup of tea but some people actually gives a shit bat her music. Stop obsessing abt her if you don't like it, god it's so fucking simple.
I don't find Cheryl Cole attractive haha! I think she has a falcon nose but back to the point... Why is nobody realise Snow Patrol ?! Never heard this song before but its making me search the origional !! <3 it
Yes yes Cheryl Cole sings well etc, yes she's gorgeous. But why is no-one appreciating the massive awesomeness that is Gary Lightbody and Snow Patrol?! Ahhh, Gary. <3
I mean I'm not hating but I just think she is concentrating to hard so there's not enough chemistry... I also don't really how she drags out every other word :/
Sorry, but it is really annoying the way she drags out the lyrics. She may be beautiful, and she may be able to carry a tune, but that does not mean that she did a great job on this song. Martha and Gary had better chemistry, and their vocals meshed well together. I even prefer the performance Gary did with that Jenson, or Jansen lady (I can't remember her name at the moment). It flows so much better than this.
Martha Wainwright blows Cheryl Whateverhernameisthesedays out the water. She looks and sounds terrified by the whole experience. The only reason she chose to participate in this song is cos it's largely a spoken vocal. She's got about as much range as a one fingered pianist.
