We suppose that it was only a matter of time that Little Mix were chosen for charity single duties. This year, they are performing the single for Sports Relief (if you’ve never heard of it, click here to find out more) and the song of choice? A cover of Cameo’s Word Up.
Now frequent visitors know our opinion of covers; do them well, respect the original but make it your own. Well, we can safely say that it does cover all of our criteria. It has a feeling of the original musically but there’s just something that seems to be there bringing it up to date.
Traditionally these songs do well, but we still think that Mcfly’s Sports Relief single (a cover of the Queen classic Don’t Stop Me Now) takes some beating! But we still hope that the song does well and helps raise a wee bit extra for the charity event.
(p.s. you’ll be able to buy the CD single from 17th March exclusively in Sainsbury’s!)
