I like the cover! and the guitar in the verses of Unlikely Hero is lovely :love1:
I think I've fallen in love with Unlikely Hero... if it's not the next single I'll be really upset :(
When Irwin says 'You're never getting past' in Choices it really sounds like 'Never getting baths' ahaha!!!
Can't wait to mp3ise and listen on repeat :lol:
Al and Irwin look so lovely in these videos! and I love Al's outfit in the interview. I think Irwin may have lost his voice a bit, it sounds different in the interview to usual, softer and much more adorable :p

Acoustic Unlikely Hero is just beautiful. I love the guitar in it :D It's annoying that the videos keep stopping and starting. I like the way the cover has such a electronic-y feeling to it :p
And haha it does sound exactly like never getting baths :lol: And I love Al's makeshift drumkit!
'These are the XSessions, wese are The Hoosiers, and these is Choices.' :lol:

ok. now I've calmed down from my giddy hoosiers high I just had there, I'll actually contribute to this conversation :lol:
I agree kates, I bet his voice is a little off or something, I mean he let Al speak first! :p but I like the way he sounds when his voice is softer and a teency bit raspy :)
I cannot wait to hear Al sing! its driving me crazy. but it is autotuned right? I hope his voice isnt covered up too much. I hope he's not too shy to sing at shows and such!
oh and if anyone has mp3ised those videos can you send me unlikely hero and the cover?

Oh yes if anyone has done that can they send it to me too :p I attempted to do it but, couldn't find a way to download the videos first.
I'll upload my mp3-ized versions soon :) I downloaded the videos, stripped the audio then mastered them in Sony Vegas so it sounds really good :)

It's annoying that the videos keep stopping and starting.
Yeah, I had to download it to RealPlayer to get it to play properly - I will upload the videos to Youtube and I hope it's allowed, because I've had many warnings on my account from Youtube about putting up things I shouldn't :lol:
i'm in love. seriously. undoubtedly. unequivocally. in love.
Innit!

What I'm scared about is downloading these, then being chased by Lord Mandelson with a stick with a huge pin in it :S :lol:
You know what he's like with downloads :lol:

God, Unlikely Hero is SOOOO amazing!! <3
It sounds like Gumbaro!
Didn't like the Young Turks song, but that's cause i don't really like the song not their rendition or anything. And i thought the interview wasn't very good either. They guy interviewing them annoyed me.

The Rod Stewart cover, was ok, and I really liked the acoustic version of Choices.

I'll send them over HG, soon as computer stops being so slow!
Welll Mum's just heard the cover, and her thoughts are that the Rod Stewart cover is a very brave thing to do and that it's very good :D
