    It is rare finding someone who can truly sing one of Ed’s songs. Ed’s voice and touch are inimitable and most of the covers I hear are terrible. But Birdy... Birdy truly took it to another level. She reinterpreted the song, singing in a pure and, at the same moment, passionate way that no one but her could have afforded. I love this cover as much as the original.

    The fact that our society is forever comparing others to see who is better is quite disgusting to me. How can you compare two absolutely sensational singers? Frankly no one cares about the other opinions, can we just appreciate both artists? This is coming from a person who idolises Ed and he is legitimately my favourite artist ever. The need to compare is unnecessary you can't compare them, they are incomparable, both do amazing jobs at singing the song so can we just leave it at that and not compare all of the bloody time.

      You can stop with the preaching now. People will always compare other artists, no matter the medium, and will care about opinions, because each side is invested in either their own opinion or others'. The need to compare believe it or not is necessary, not exactly on a who did it better, though that will always be present regardless of your wishy-washy ideals, but because the singers are different and give the same song a different voice, emotion, and feel to it, of course people are going to compare it.
      Comparison is nothing more than an observational technique. Get over it.

    • @meganpill3545
      @meganpill3545 9 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      So I need to stop with the preaching but you have the right to? Nah mate I don't appreciate double standards. You have your opinion I have mine, no need to tell me to 'get over it' because you frankly mean nothing to me and I'll do what I want, I won't 'get over it' under anyone's concern especially not yours. Now I believe comparison is what's wrong with society ( yes it is inevitable but only because it's been socialised into it ) no one can appreciate two lovely things, they need to take them and downgrade one just so the other can be named the 'best'. Now I'll keep my opinion and you can go tell yours to someone who cares because even reading my comment in the first place shows that I do not care about yours.

      Notice how I never once said, one side will inevitably downgrade the other. Yes, it is bound to happen, but I was simply stating facts. You sir, are running solely on emotions and personal bias. I'm just stating what people will do, and unlike you, I accept that.
      There's a difference between preaching and lecturing. You can't change the way the world works, or anything with your kind of thinking.

    White lips, pale face
    Breathing in snowflakes
    Burnt lungs, sour taste
    Light's gone, day's end
    Struggling to pay rent
    Long nights, strange men
    And they say
    She's in the class A team
    Stuck in her daydream
    Been this way since 18
    But lately her face seems
    Slowly sinking, wasting
    Crumbling like pastries
    And they scream
    The worst things in life come free to us
    'Cause we're just under the upper hand
    And go mad for a couple of grams
    And she don't want to go outside tonight
    And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
    Or sells love to another man
    It's too cold outside
    For angels to fly
    Angels to fly
    Ripped gloves, raincoat
    Tried to swim, stay afloat
    Dry house, wet clothes
    Loose change, bank notes
    Weary-eyed, dry throat
    Cool girl, no phone
    And they say
    She's in the class A team
    Stuck in her daydream
    Been this way since 18
    But lately her face seems
    Slowly sinking, wasting
    Crumbling like pastries
    And they scream
    The worst things in life come free to us
    'Cause we're just under the upper hand
    And go mad for a couple of grams
    And she don't want to go outside tonight
    And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland
    Or sells love to another man
    It's too cold outside
    For angels to fly
    For angels to
    Ooh, ooh,
    Ooh, ooh
    And they say
    She's in the class A team
    Stuck in her daydream
    Been this way since 18
    But lately her face seems
    Slowly sinking, wasting
    Crumbling like pastries
    And they scream
    The worst things in life come free to us
    'Cause we're just under the upper hand
    And go mad for a couple of grams
    But she don't want to go outside tonight
    And in a pipe we fly to the Motherland
    Or sells love to another man
    It's too cold outside
    For angels to fly
    For angels to fly
    To fly,
    For angels to die

      I love them both. Personally, I don't like the one that's on Ed's album as much as some live performances he's done- the live recordings are always more raw. I understand that he wants to make the song more upbeat the contrast with the lyrics, but I feel like it's such an emotional song it's hard to do it justice without it being slow. But I love his version and her version both.

      Lily Wendt I wonder if it would be right to say that Birdy uses more sorrowful emotions, whereas Ed Sheeran's performances is more tainted by an aggressive approach to this unjust. Therefore his more upright stance, in contrast to Birdy's more ... closed in, lost way of singing. I have not seen Ed Sheeran's live performance, so I must ask opinion from someone else. Personally I find both beautiful (it's hard to not think this song beautiful, with such quality from each artist) - but that is hardly the matter of discussion
      Good day to you, sir!
