John and Edward, have you ever heard anybody murder a classic?

Thier rendition of Under Pressure would have had Freddie Mercury turning in his grave..If Freddie wanted to include "rap"in this brilliant song, he wouldn't have asked David Bowie to accompany him.. This has to be the worst ever "cover". I wish that Simon would get his head out of his backside and get back to commenting honestly on these two boys.. I'm starting to believe all of the tabloid views that he has a stake in thier future and needs them to do well, even though they are utter rubbish!! Any thoughts???

    I totally agree! Hes starting to realise that the boys (even tho they are awful!) have a chance of winning, so hes supporting them so people are on his side and he makes money outta them! God they are awful, as soon as i heard it was queen week I though Oh no jedward + queen = disaster! And it was!!

    And I agree about the Simon thing aswell, I mean I really used to like but how much more money does he need?

    Freddie Mercury would not be turning in his grave, why would he be? They are singing HIS songs, and i think that's something to be proud of. If the other members of queen let them sing it, i'm pretty sure he would aswell. He was one of the nicest blokes going, so no he won't be turning in his grave :)

    John and Edward have the X factor, they are enjoying themselves and are not carbon copies conveyer belt wanna be pop stars. That alone makes them entertaining!

    Well, it was a cover of the Vanilla Ice version. It was Vanilla Ice who ruined it originally with the rapping, they just copied his version. It was called 'Ice Ice Baby', if I recall correctly.

    omg does nobody not know anything about music?

    the rap was by Vanilla Ice becos Vanilla Ice covered Queens song Under Pressure and thats the version Jedward were doin.

    they were doin that one becos they wanted to do something different and be more modern!

    it was some random rap they wrote ffs!
