It's not dead yet. It will be performed on the live show next week which will give it a boost.

Craig Davids CIN song was a let down.
Peter Kay's was all about the video.
Perfect Day was pure genius

Why Sharon Corr - "Me and My Teddy Bear" is not in the list ?

I seriously can't remember that Craig David one from last year. Loved the Jess Glynne one from the year before though.

Why Sharon Corr - "Me and My Teddy Bear" is not in the list ? Maybe not an officially endorsed cin single and proceeds only donated because the artist wanted them to go there maybe |

It was official but I assume it just had very low sales. There are other CiN singles not on the list too.

I don't know if they are just the official Children In Need singles, as there seems to be only 1 from each year.

:format(jpeg):mode_rgb():quality(90)/discogs-images/R-6704347-1448717167-5100.jpeg.jpg) It's a cover of the single. "Children In Need" mark with bear was used, but as whitneyfan already said Wikipedia have only one mentioned official single from each year. |

I quite liked Ellie Goulding's cover of the Waterboys song, which wasn't that well known a song by the original artist. (If she'd covered The Whole Of The Moon or Fisherman's Blues it would probably have sounded terrible).

Yes, and I think it sounded better because I didn't realise it was a cover until after I had heard her version. |

Another reason why that teddy bear song ain't listed could be it didn't make the top 20 on that list. Was it only ever a bride. Or was it classed as a as side with wogan and Alex. I really thought it was just a normal song placed on the CD as a bonus track.
