Wow! I did not know that. You are right about that. Bogarde was excellent.

I respect Birdy so much. She's by far the most talented singer I've heard and she sings with her heart and not for fame. I love that she's always remained discreet and very humble over the years. We need more artists like her. EDIT 2023: I saw Birdy live, her voice is pure gold. Still got chills.

[@elenaemilycociorva9560]

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.

[@jonashorn8354]

It honestly seems too theatrical to me. She also keeps on repeating the same 📈📈📉📉📈📉📈📉 circle again and again, which makes it seem even more fake-dramatic. By no means do I hate this or those who listen to this ❤️ But I just find Ed's version (which btw is one of my favourite songs) to be much better personally :D

[@meganpill3545]

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.

[@JoJoMadara]

Meganpops 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]

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.

[@JoJoMadara]

Meganpops 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.

[@terezanovotna5227]
