Ronan Keatings version of Iris, wrong, very wrong or offensive?

It's god-awful. I nearly cried. And lost some of my respect for the Goo Goo Dolls, who are still alive and well so obivously allowed him to do it.



What winds me up is, the original was released in the UK and didn't really do so well. If this one does better, then what does that say about the British public? We'd rather buy a lesser version of the song because it's Ronan F**king Keating?

Reply:OH MY SWEET LAWD NOOOO!! I didnt know anything about it until now. So I just had to check out the video. Someone please tell me WHY he messed up a perfectly good song. Sounds like a bad Karaoke version. I wish he DIDNT want the world to see him jack up this song cuz I really don't understand!!
Reply:It's very wrong. The original is a classic of our time and for someone like Ronan Keating to cover it is sacriledge of the highest order. Sadly, it's another example of the pop music money making machine. As a result, If I hear it on the radio I turn it off out of principle.
