I wasnt sure which forum to put this in, so went with sport as it is a race after all. But if you think it would be better in gubbins or somewhere else please feel free to shift it! thanks.

Hi guys Im running the Stockholm Marathon next week and am running a competition to raise money for charity. Im doing a sweepstake which means you just have to donate £1 per go and I will give you a time. If the time matches the one I run in, you will win a £20 online voucher of your choice. Hope this is OK to post here, I have posted a bit on the boards so its not like Im just spamming and it is obviously for a good cause. All money is for Cancer Research UK. Here's the link www.justgiving.com/stockholm07Thanks Steve

the thing is , Mel is really struggling in the UK, and whatever this is being used for, it is so cheesy and gross that it will kill her flagging career stone dead. It will make her more of a laughing stock. For someone who tries so hard to be taken seriously this seems like a big mistake, but who knows?

OMG Why would she do this? This will definately miss top 40, if not top 75. The song is so cheesy and awful that I dont think anyone should cover it unless it is a charity special or something. The Aaron Carter one was awful too.

oh I thought this was a new single off a new album. It sounds so different from the others I just assumed lol
Oh well, if its single #4 it probably wont do very well but I think its her best one to date, I prefer her upbeat sound.

they were quite good to start with, but then the singles for their second album were that same-old American lite stuff (a la Nickelback etc).
It just sounded like they were trying too hard to be commercial and generic. No wonder everyone lost interest. Loved the way they announced it on Popworld tho lol.

Yeh I loved them, but the last album I actually bought was Quench. I lost interest after Jacqueline left and they got a new female singer who sounded really boring. Liked Painting It Red but havent touched any of their albums since.

yeh and the thing is it clearly shows in the video that they are not really all together which is what lets it down IMO.

this cover is really disappointing. It sounds like I expected it to, but I wanted so much more from the video. It should have shown them facing off against each other, playing up to the rumours that they hate each other. They tried to do this, but it looks like they never even met for the video -they dont actually interact at all and it looks completely false. So all the humour is lost IMO. Maybe they will do it better "live" on Comic Relief night.
