I was super excited when I heard that Cheryl Cole joined Snow Patrol to sing "Set The Fire To The Third Bar". I cannot even explain how excited I was! "Set The Fire To The Third Bar" is one of my favorite songs of all time. It is on my iPod and grabs my attention every time it comes on. I absolutely love it. And Cheryl Cole and her debut album are also on my iPod and on heavy rotation.
At any rate, the performance and audio are amazing. I'm not sure if it was recorded for the broadcast on the 20th, but there is video of it on youtube, and the audio did play on the Chris Moyles radio show. Enjoy.
As I've said, I'm a fan of the original, and of Cheryl Cole and really enjoy this version. The studio version with Snow Patrol is amazing, but this is special. I love the way their two voices blend and the harmony. It was a great idea and worked out great. If it were a single or for sale, I would buy it and it would be on repeat for at least a few days. Gary Lightbody, the lead singer of Snow Patrol is a bit too spastic in his perforamance for my liking. And as usual, Cheryl Cole looks absolutely amazing and gorgeous. Maybe Gary Lightbody was spastic with his movements to distract my attention away from Cheryl Cole!
