The complete version of the duet:

The CD single is released on 9th December and the download on 8th December. The 'X' Factor single will not be released until 15th December. Looking likely that Elvis will get his 22nd UK No.1 on 15th December. On such duets both artists are credited with a No.1.

Just my opinion... I don't like it, it's a good cause and all, but as a duet it's poor.

Your quite right Graeme.. But I can't help feel EPE have once again sold Elvis short.. It's a terrible track that falls woefully short of his original recording. For me it's not about sales it's Elvis' reputation that bothers me with these sort of releases.

Looks like Susan Boyle will be performing 'O Come All Ye Faithfull' during the 'X Factor' show on the day of its release - Sunday, 8th December.

I understand, quality, not quantity.
However, we are in danger of turning into our parents - or grandparents at this rate.
A 21 year old in 1956 was accused of performing crap, now we're saying it in relation to what the teens are listening to now to some degree.

Perhaps though that that is the way of the world, what goes around comes around etc.
Maybe, but I know more people will be listening to Elvis still in 50 years time than any act that's "around" today (IMG:style_emoticons/default/winking0001.gif)
