great idea, when I saw that x factor was using it it even crossed my mind that it would be great to get some airplay for this beautiful song - the Jeff Buckley version obviously. Lets hope it gives it a run for the money and if nothing else will hopefully introduce more people to Jeff Buckleys music

i'm not a great fan of this song; but as its likely to be no1 at christmas because its the song the xfactor winner is going to release, lets give them a smack in the chops and put the original artist at no1 and the xfactor winner at no2. ;~}
